I remember seeing an article somewhere that broke all the skills The article was arguing that the DQ skills should not continue to exist as a group of "sub-skills" that each advanced as the character advanced. I have looked at all the files here and cannot find it, I did find other skills that could be added to the present skill list. I am not looking to add "Archer" or whatever I am looking to have a list of smaller skills, each with their own cost to advance and success percentage like weapons presently have, and get away from the "Healer", "Thief", "Ranger" skill types. Can anyone help me.

The title of the group is:
Dragonquest (SPI)

And the page is:

DragonQuest

(under the category of  Games/Toys)

If any moderator may finds this useful, then perhaps a special notice as well.

Cheers.

I remembered a word test a friend sent me I was determined that I had 20,000+ words, a college, well read person, would place me at Rk 7 (she's a English major with 25,000+ words.)

Does anyone restrict the number of amulets used by a character at a time?

Anyone here who is old enough to remember, may recall that we were limited on space for uploading such things as the game rules + scenarios, + etc.

Now, the amount of data that is here is but a sliver of the memory bar graph!  I know that in the Universe group, we had to open up few secondary groups to be able to have more space (er, no pun altogether intended!).

I'm wanting to upload in here, at some point (perhaps, before the close of this year?) a scenario which I would be running at, say, a Strategicon.  It'll be in the Middle Earth setting - not long after "The Return of the King."  And will concern an undertaking (uh, not a pun there either!) of a consortium of folk with a number of economic concerns.. Hobbits operating an orchard, Dwarves doing - what else - along a locale which I'll call, "Hillsdale." Altogether invented by me, so not "cannon." As I am pondering it at this moment, I may create it as a campaign setting so that however many adventures may be gotten out of it.  If so, I'll make it adaptable so that it may be run in "any setting." I'm not certain where though, for example, it may be set into an Alusia map? Possibly upon one of the extended maps I might see a "fit?"

Anyhow, just a few thoughts and I wonder that perhaps this may inspire others to do something too, or maybe upload something already put together?

Game On, Everyone!

Thank you for this!

I would not consider myself an "Old Timer", considering I started the rpg hobby as a player in 1978 and began GM'ing  in 1980, and still do so. Of course, that is relativism - is it not. But alas, I only have part of Steve Jackson's draft of DQ World Generation, none of which are the missing sections. 

By the way, are there any DQ players in the Youngstown Ohio area? I am preparing another DQ campaign, in my own World of Coranthir that I have been GM'ing since 1984, and  seeking additional players.

There are more gamers involved with DQ in Ohio, since the BBS on ftp before the yahoo groups, than people realize. Other than myself, there is/was Phillip Proefrock, Dave Nadler, Drake Stanton, Cody Mills and Frank Paldino. Anyone else would like to say who you are and where you located. After all, that is one of the purposes of this DQ community from 1994 in the DQ Newsletter to these two yahoo groups now.

Cody Mills: I'm a also in Ohio. Cincinnati

Frank Paldino: I am in Youngstown, Ohio

Jeffrey McGonagill: Oregon
