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.

Quote from: The Butcher;757269I'd rather get an actual Mythic Greece book actually. Or Mythic Britain. Or Mythic Mesopotamia – this idea was floated at some point and seriously, how awesome would that be.

Mythic Britain would be amazingly cool.

All three Mythics (Britain, Greece and Mesopotamia) are on the cards. Mythic Britain will be first and is a late autumn release.

Then we'll have Mythic Constantinople...

Greece will be 2015, and Mesopotamia is not yet scheduled.

I can't wait for Mythic Indiana. My state clearly needs this. :)

Seriously, though, I know I'm late to this thread, but my group has really loved RuneQuest's combat. Getting an effect on an attack and calling your shot or disarming is a lot of fun (the Combat Effects app is handy, too).

You guys are gonna have to put Thulsa's feet to the fire, get that Mesopotamia started. :D

Are you suggesting Morten Braten might write a RQ6 Mythic Mesopotamia? wha?

OK, that's it, I am NOT playing any other thing than RQ6 for the foreseeable future :D
My name is Ramón Nogueras. Running now Vampire: the Masquerade (Giovanni Chronicles IV for just 3 players), and itching to resume my Call of Cthulhu campaign (The Sense of the Sleight-of-Hand Man).

Who else would write it?  He's the natural choice.  KS that sucker.

Would RQ6 work with 'higher' fantasy magic, say fireball, magic missile, etc?

Are there any rules/supplements that cover this?

I like brp/d100, but I really like high-fantasy settings.

No, we've not got Morten Bratan to write Mythic Mesopotamia. We have another writer in mind, and have had for quite a while.

RuneQuest: Classic Fantasy will have these kinds of spells - and more - along with Old Skool Dungeoneering rules adapted for d100 gaming. Expect to see it early in 2015.

But of course, Wrack does these effects already anyway. It's a very workable stand-in, while you're waiting.
Clearly, "what I like" is awesome, and a well-considered, educated opinion. While "what other people like" is stupid, and just a bunch of made up gobbledygoook. - zomben

Any news on third party publishing or open license?

Well, it's good to know it's on the horizon, even if not yet in the pipeline.
