Hey Dancross,
In any of your playtesting did you ever try a different genre. Sci-fi, western, post-apoc... Just wondering how versatile ERP could be.

Re: ERP for other Genres
ERP was designed for epic fantasy and is not playtested with other genres. I imagine it would require some tweaks of the defense system to accommodate future settings with guns, especially modern guns or sci-fi lasers and such. It may be fun to see where that goes some dayDustin R wrote:Hey Dancross,

Re: ERP for other Genres
It probably wouldn't be terribly hard to mix in a little Sci-Fi, with the Epic Fantasy. Along with the combat mechanics tweaks, you might have to add a few extra "Magic Effects" types, if you want to go to a "Shadowrun-esk" world, but that's easy enough.
Hey Dan, can I still take a ton of dice in "Earth Manipulation to create a stone pillar out of the stone floor and pulverize an "insane orcish shaman holding the magic crystal that we need"? ....again. I remember the look on your face when I made that roll. *evil giggle*
