FEDEX just dropped off my copy of GCore.
I kept being told it was an update on my beloved FASERIP marvel. Well just at first glance I can see it's missing RANDOM POWER GENERATION and the Random determination of power level.
Instead, it seems to be BUILD POINT BASSED. (YUCK) another game trying to be Champions
Now I still need to read it and it does have the NAME's and COLOR RANKS and I guess it's a % but that seems to be the only nod to FASERIP
Among the many fun things about FASERIP marvel were the random generation and the fact you could have sub par powers. Why take that away, its part of the beauty. Without it-its just another SHRPG
My opinion may change after I read it, but based on first look. DISAPPOINTED
Random powers were part of what made FASERIP so much fun and easy. For my dyslexia, playing marvel was such a fresh breath of air. I did not have to worry about points and point-shaving and the min/max glut of champions. Roll up a few random powers, fit them together. NUmbers? No, I have EXCELLENT Agility. Numbers, no, roll green shift>
I can not tell you how much that meant to me, Taking that away well then it's not a faserip marvel clone IMHO-it's just another game trying to be gurps supers.
I do not expect you to understand. This is just my gut feeling and why I love FASERIP marvel
Starting this Friday 11/26/2021 there is a huge 75% off sale on all the products in the "game Room". A lot of classic older games and comics, some of them have been there a WHILE!
Here is the first tour of the product, ill do more
Part of the problem is each character has specific rules for them , how David does things and howe 44 does things are different. That was my fault and its to late to change them
The Rules of the game.
0: The Game Master is always correct. They may not always be right but during the game they are always correct. If the game master makes a mistake, bring it up after the game is over don’t toss an X card and stop the game mid encounter.
1: This is a stupid game about Goblins with sticks. That’s it, this is a game, a game is supposed to be fun. It should never be more important then real life. If it’s not fun, that’s ok. We can talk about it or you can take a break. It’s a dumb game, that’s it.
2: Everything you encounter is the result of phenomenon you understand, or phenomenon you do not understand. S*** happens, the universe does not owe you an explanation and magic is the cheat code of the universe
4: Nothing is impossible, but some things are highly improbable. The universe does not owe you an explanation.
5: Write it down. It is not the universe job to remind you that you picked up a +1 spear in the 3rd game, your lucky if the universe can remember where it left it’s keys.
6: When in doubt, remember. At the end of the day when all the dust settles it is still just a stupid little game about Goblins with sticks
Shadowdark skill system
Method 1: Vague. Roll D20 + Appropriate stat mod
Method 2: Less vague. Each class has a skill called “Class stuff” and every race has a skill called “race stuff” whenever you are doing something specific to your class or race you can try to get the GM to let you use that skill.
Jen the elf has a skill called Elf Stuff, whenever she does ...
