Anyway, partly to get back on topic and partly to burn some time at college here are my revised weapon damage statistics:

Basically, i need a place where i can both work at home and college when i am bored.

So i have decided to dediate a thread on this lovely forum for the sake of developing my new RPG rules and everually gain development aprooval from big companies.

Feedback is welcome, although it is a secondary function.

MELEE WEAPON VARIABLES:

Endurance- The HP of a weapons expressed as DP (Damage Points). The more DP, the tougher a weapon is.

Reach- Essentially the length of a weapon. A high Range score means that there is less distance required to strike an enemy.

Craftsmanship- Most craftsmen (e.g. Blacksmiths, Bowyers) will have a distinguished way of making the weapons that they posess or trade.
As a result, there may be weapons that have bonuses and flaws in their making.

FDSR- Full Damage Strength Requirement: The minimum Strength score that a character must posess in order to inflict the maximum Damage of that weapon on an enemy.

DC- Damage Class: The 1st Damage Class is the primary type of damage inflicted upon the enemy. The secondary Damage Class inflics half of the weapons Damage upon striking an enemy.

AP-Agility Penalty: Inflicted upon wearer of applicable armour.

SPELLCASTING ISSUES:

Issue explanation
Casting Selection A spellcaster can cast any spell he/she has leaned at any time.
Frequency The intelligence of a character determines the number of spells he/she can cast in a period of time.
Forgetfulness Casting spells that have not been recently used causes their effect to be halved.

Whoa! This would be interesting. I cannot log in
to your discussion right now (maybe after two-
three months). But, watching others nearly-allways
can bring you something new.

Anyway, I develop my own 3D FPS/TPS/demi-DND game.
I still work on 3D Engine, overall story and
gathering designers and feedback. Today I should get
Apache, PHP, MySQL so I'll should be able to
organize everything as one site so, if/when I be in
need of feedback, I'll put it on the Web and give
you all the link. Xehe.

Cool. I'd like to take a look at some if your stuff, especially your "demi" DND stuff.

I understand you can develop 3d engine, story and design. But do you do it as a pass-time or a job?

Oh, don't laugh. That "demi" DND should be something
Arx Fatalis-like. I said "demi" just because dex 100
shall do nothing if player cannot use it. So, no
point'n'click but slash and see. (if I hit the right
phrases)



No, I work on it just when I have time for it. It
is not job, and there is not adequate coin-reward
before something is realy done - Sponsors say.

right.

The scope of mine is to develop rules engine for a PC-RPG which is both different from D&D and much more understandable by the player. It is also focused hard on reality and the effects of more combat characteristics.

HEY! Aren't you get lazy since last post?

yes, well, you know...Ive had other projects on my mind. I just need this place so that i can add changes from work and college and town.
