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.

Is there a list of D100 retroclones? AKA, clones of all the BRP/Chaosium?

I highly suggest Stormbringer 3e, the Games Workshop version.

Stormbringer is based on Michael Moorcock's Elric of Melnibone series. The magic system not RQ, but all about deals with demons, sacrifices and binding demons to do your sorcerous bidding.

Quote from: Voros;957035Ah yes, Stormbringer makes sense. Never been able to get my hands on a copy. One day. Recently found Elfquest used but heard that the system is ill suited to the setting. Isn't Stormbringer more a setting than a system? I thought it was a mildly tweaked BRP with a different magic system.
Well, BRP where death is much less likely for PCs, and a magic system where you only traffic with demons.
That's different enough for me that I ordered Crimson Blades 2e, which is like the Chainmail-inspired OSR version of Stormbringer:).

Love Moorcock and I have a 'copy' of Stormbringer around somewhere on pdf but I'm holding out for a hardcopy to actually sit down and read it properly. I want the St Andre/Perrin original.

The problem is, Stormbringer isn't easily available in PDF, alas;).

Quote from: Spinachcat;956012I am looking for both D100 clones and OGL usage of the D100 OGLs.

AKA, if its BRP and not Chaosium, I'm interested in learning of its existence, but my KEY FOCUS is seeing what Chaosium products have been cloned.

Dig around BRPCentral and you'll find some lists and 'family trees' that show an 'evolutionary' path of which product spawned which product, as well as edition timelines. Here are a couple of links: RQ Geneaology, BRP Family Tree
