This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

How does Palladium 2E differ from D & D?

All printings of 1st ed are identical in text and mechanics with the exception of the removal of the sexual deviance tables from the insanity section.

Quote from: sureshot;1101673Following PB usually lack of balance some of the non-human races are way too powerful imo to be allowed at the table. With good rolls a Troll could start with a 34 PS. Made worse that the more non-standard races above are mainly evil and hated by almost everyone else. What made me laugh was that the Wolfen method of conquering is much more humane than the other fantasy races. They allow the conquered race to keep everything they own, their gods, pretty much everything like it was before `just pay taxes and send able bodied men to join the army. Yet no one wants to join them. As well the setting suffers from the overused trope of "humanity and only humanity is at the top food chain" like too many existing fantasy rpgs.

I disagree about balance. The balance is in the role play. Sure the Troll or Wolfen is strong, but they also aren't allowed into town, no one makes armor or weapons big enough for them without being relly expensive, etc.

Humans in the Palladium Fantasy setting are going downhill. The Western Empire has fallen into decadence and self destruction. The Timiro Kingdom is about to have a massive slave revolt. Byzantium is insignificant. And the Eastern Territories are going to fall to the Wolfen eventually (at least the northern part).

The setting makes it pretty clear that the canine races are the future of the world.
