Rule Forum Follow-Up

This is a post about role-playing and it affects the players of mine. If you aren’t interested in this kind of shit you probably don have anything interesting to read here. If you are one of my players on the other hand and are a little bit interested about what’s going on and want to have a part of it you should both read this and attend to my next Rule Forum Follow-Up meeting.

It’s time to have a follow-up on the rule forum and a meeting about the association thing. I have some new things that I want to discuss, this time more about layout and design and so on. I also have a couple of projects I want to discuss with you, one of them being the campaign.

I plan to have this Rule Forum as a whole-day event this Saturday. I hope that people are interested enough to come and also are in the mood to discuss Nianze, rules as well as history. My idea is that we will spend the whole day discussing, maybe trying some rules with a minor fight or something like that and just hang out. I want to point out that this event will not be that strict all the time so I hope that you can entertain yourself in some way without disturbing anyone. Towards the evening we may turn the whole thing into a movie-night if we feel like it but the main purpose is to discuss Nianze.

I also want the kids to attend if they can and want to. We won’t be doing the same thing all day and we will probably play some random sequences just to try out things and I think it would be fun if you wanted to be there too, both of you =).

The things I want do discuss other than the association thing¹ is the following;

Techniques – More about their use how you want to use them and help you together with me balance them. Also I want to know if there are any techniques you miss or want to have as a preset².

Magic – We barely went into this subject the last time so this time I want to go into this again and present my vision about how this should work and also maybe try to finish some spells and so on. That I will use a level system is clear, and I’m also thinking about a mixing-system to make limited custom spells in the same way that you use techniques. This will be complex, but it also will make it more interesting, I will tell you more about my idea then and we’ll see what you all say.

The Character Sheet – Is everything working, something I should change, add and so on? Just want some opinions and suggestion to how I shall change it. I will print out the most recent form for you to see and give suggestions and opinions about.

Character Creation – I will try to show the Character Creation Sheet and the Tables and see how you like it and if you all can use and understand it without problems. I’ve tried to make it easier so everyone should be able to use it, now I just need to test if it’s correct.

Skills – Skills are very essential, especially now in Nianze so I want to discuss them. Both how they are used and if we need some more/less. But the most important thing is to discuss their uses to enlighten you about them and so on.

And everything else that might come up. Well, I look forward to it.

Best regards,
Herid Fel
