As part of Mystic week here on the Blog, here is an RMU Mystic character, a level 5 Grey Elf, for your viewing/playing pleasure. You can view it in Downloads>RMU, accessible above (once Peter approves it). This is the best I can do for the Mystic. I don’t have a new take on the class,…
As Brian already noted, this is Warrior Mage week here on the Blog, so here is my version of the Warrior Mage for RMU. You will find the skill costs in Downloads>RMU>Profession: Warrior Mage, and the Spells in Downloads>RMU>Spell List: Warrior Mage Base. I have also rolled up a sample Warrior Mage character (High Elf)…
There is a guy on one of the OSE Discord servers I lurk in that reminds me a lot of Hurin. He isn’t Hurin under a different name unless Hurin has a secret double life in Australia, but that is beside the point. This guy is one of the big personalities in the OSR/OSRIC/DnD nerd…
I’ve just adapted and reworked three of my favorite old RM2 Druid lists for RMU. You can download them in the Downloads>RMU section at the top of this website (just click on ‘downloads>RMU if you don’t get a dropdown menu). Let me know what you think! This is of course part of our ‘Druid Week’.…
The following lists are my solution to what I feel is one of the weaknesses of the Ranger class in Rolemaster: a lack of combat spells. You can access them in our Downloads: RMU section, above. The Ranger has some good utility spells, but imho it has always lacked some combat oomph. These two lists…
In response to Peter’s most recent discussion of the Bard, I offer this new Bard base spell list, Mockery. Although I designed Mockery for RMU, I believe you could use it for earlier editions. If you try to do that, I recommend changing any instances of the words ‘action point’ to a -25 modifier per…
What is that quote?….There are only 7 plot devices for every metastory. Perhaps you only need a D7 Aspire2HopeGM I always think of adventures as all being variations of “Put the characters in a hole, throw stones as them as they try to get out.” Your plot is the hole, the stones are the encounters…
When we [BriH, Edgcltd and I] wrote and released our 50in50 adventures we studiously avoided including any explicitly Rolemaster Stats (I was naughty and created a new monster or two along the way) to make them system neutral. Since we released them we have sold over 2,200 copies. Writing adventures is a bit of a…
Hurin write a forum post about how most of the RMu professions shape up. I have a little thought experiment to keep you all amused. (I have included some Sci Fi, modern and post apocalypse stuff here because I know people have turned RM to all sorts of settings and I personally have used this…
For May’s Fanzine I needed something to fill the gap between when the previous adventure ended and the adventure featured in that issue started. With the recent posts about Lazy GMing I decided to take the lazy way out but it had some interesting spin-offs. I started with a suggestion along the lines of have…
