New Roleplaying System
.
Imagine a role-playing game,
Where A player, once peasant, now High Fantasy Lesser God, from one reality.
Vs
Another Player, once desert farm boy, now commander of Planet Destroying sci-fi Battle Cruiser, from an enemy reality.
Could happen!
The massive edge of death battle that would ensue!
Winner take all Sci-Fi Universe vs High Fantasy Universe!
.
I wanted this,
So, I created
This is why I created the role-playing system called Battle Dirge.
.
Hail all fellow RP geeks!
I have been using a self-designed role-playing system among family and friends and I feel that I would like to make it publicly available.
This latest version will be Mk 5.
I call it BATTLE DIRGE mk 5
This will NOT be sold commercially.
It will instead, be given out for free as a PDF and on a Bespoke web site, as a “public domain” to anyone who wants it.
.
I first started this system when I was in my early twenties with those that would one day become my future brother's in-laws.
That was BATTLE DIRGE v1.
Version 4 of BATTLE DIRGE, I have played with both my children, over this last year.
.
One story was so good that I am thinking of turning it into a novel called the “Emily Sage Chronicles”!
NOW, I finally feel that a version 5 could be good enough to be offered to the world, to enjoy.
.
But taking all my hard to read scrapbooks and other bits and pieces and typing them all out neatly and professionally with nice illustrations is going to take A LOT of time and effort.
A LOT OF EFFORT INDEED!
Saying that it may take a hundred man-hours is a woeful understatement.
However, I still think that it is a project worth considering doing.
!
The systems features are…
!
1)
A universal ANY world setting system all fitting in one single PDF, including Ancient, Fantasy, gunpowder, modern-day, and sci-fi worlds!
(Instead of hundreds of different world and setting books)
!
2)
Mass Combat and Ruler Infrastructure systems included.
From lowly peasant to ruling an empire!
(Cities, lands and armies will all have their own “Character sheets” and game systems.)
!
3)
Optional “reality conflict rules” where sci-fi world elements and fantasy elements have an allergic reaction to each other….
!
4)
Ascension rules for various stages of levels of becoming a higher being (good or evil)
(That will work well with the “Reality conflict rules”, imagine A Fantasy God vs a Planet Destroying sci-fi Battle Cruiser!)
!
5)
(potentially only, not promised)
An included world setting with all the factions against a backdrop or two realities melting into one another.
Sci-Fi universe vs a HighFatasy One.
Each universe can only survive if the other one is destroyed
– And time is running out!
!
6)
A system so simple that you will not need a calculator and whose rule book will be under 250 pages!
If you can count to 100, know your 2x table, and roll a D20 then you can use it!
(System will need a full dice set, D4, D6, D8, D10, D12, and a D20!)
Not hundreds of reference tables and charts needed!
The aim is to have the finished work pruned back to being only 100 pages long and very intuitive!
!
!
The finished work will take at least 100 man-hours, (not including all the illustrations I will also do)
So the £1500 is for my time, which will work out as well under normal minimum wage,
This is ok, as this is a work of passion and labour of love,
But I still need to eat…
!
The project will take about 3 to 6 months…
!
To finance this I am trying Crowdfunding for the first time EVER!
And I am hoping to raise 1500£ to do it,

PLEASE NOTE:
Feature 5, IS NOT PROMISED!
It will only potentially be done, time and expense permitting!
And it will have to be a second (but again, free to all) book of about 100 extra pages.
