Since I do know people that love this kind of 'stuff', I'll be MORE then happy to send them your way if that's ok.
Thank you! I'm glad you think so.Â
It's completely understandable that interest in this type of system would be very small, I expected this from the beginning. But by all means, if you know people that may be interested in this, feel free to send them this way to take a gander.
On a side note, I'd like to state that I've never personally played D&D. I have played one or two other table top RPGs (whose names I can't recall for the life of me...), but most of my experience derives from other systems such as TRPGs, TCGs, and board games, which I feel are evident in how the turns and rounds function. I did look into how D&D and other table top systems work and I also spoke to a couple people who do play D&D or have experience with it and asked what mechanics would likely work or fail in a normal RP setting.Â
The idea was initially thought out as a system that myself and a few others who expressed interest could use when we can't RP in-game, but wanted to keep the element of "realtime" RP in a forum setting when in combat while also making it fun and engaging for all those involved. Again, I'd like to stress that the system above would only ever be used when in combat in certain instances (not every instance), while RP would function normally outside of these.
Anyways, I'll be creating a new RP thread for the first test session either tonight or tomorrow. To everyone who has volunteered, please have your character profile/affinity chart ready if you haven't posted it in this thread yet.Â
Thanks again guys!Â
