I came up with a solid one-shot fantasy scenario the last time I was in Iowa.
One of the player's utter inability to get past a simple security measure at the city gates derailed the entire thing, so it never got played to completion.
That means I can still use it!
When FuzzyGeff next visits, I could dump him into it again with JT and Marv!
I've had fantasy on the mind lately with the new edition of AD&D coming out and the many gamer youtubers talking about it.
Not that I'm getting a new version of AD&D to play a fantasy setting.
I'm invested in GURPS and I'll stick with it.
Something I really like to do, if I had time and sufficient players, is to run the full ATDGQ series of modules from AD&D with GURPS.
They'd start at T1 - The Village of Hommlet with 150 point characters and we'd go from there and see if they survive to Q1 - Queen of the Demonweb Pits.
The whole series is;
T1 - The Village of HommletT2 - Nulb and the RuinsT3 - Dungeons of Elemental EvilT4 - Nodes of Elemental EvilA0 - Danger at Darkshelf QuarryA1 - Slave Pits of the UndercityA2 - Secret of the Slavers' StockadeA3 - Assault on the Aerie of the Slave LordsA4 - In the Dungeons of the Slave LordsG1 - Steading of the Hill Giant ChiefG2 - The Glacial Rift of the Frost Giant JarlG3 - Hall of the Fire Giant KingD1 - Descent Into the Depths of the EarthD2 - Shrine of the Kuo-ToaD3 - Vault of the DrowQ1 - Queen of the Demonweb Pits
UPDATE: Order fixed based on Wikipedia information that I looked up because Beans caught them out of order.
Since GURPS is capable of handling all the standard Fantasy tropes, I'd only have to make a couple of monsters and, maybe, translate a spell or three. Simple.
Simpler than converting Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. WFRP doesn't really need translating. It just needs stats for some monsters and let the rules changes be changed and don't chase parity of effect with them. Remember, you're changing rule systems for a reason!
Erm... D1,2,3 happen after the Giant series and before Q1. Access to the Underworld is through a passage in G3.
ReplyDeleteIf I actually get to play, I will put them in order.
