why don’t we have a group project and make dungeons and dragons final fantasty rpgc edition 1 or what ever title is good making races like.
Moogles.
Yeties.
Half espers.
Cait sithes.
And those red dogs.
Classes and worlds.
So how about it.
Yeti’s already exist in DnD anyway. They’re Oriental.
Those red dogs are called Bangaas
Plus I have other ideas for races/classes and i will use your quote to improvise
Nu Mou
Robots
Frogs(even though this is from Chrono Trigger, I just want to play a Frog)
I think also changing the name of the base abilities to fit FF may suffice as well but that is open to suggestion
Power = Strength
Mind = Intelligence
Vitality = Constitution
Agility = Dexterity
not sure what to call wisdom and charisma…open for suggestions
And for saving Throws should we use 2e or 3e?

We can always improvise on these lists too… remember that this will be D&D on Steroids…so leveling up is going to be much different(the whole 1250-2500 xp for level 2 will probably not apply in this campaign
sorry this list is so long, but these are suggestions and in order to put together a good campaign we do need ideas…i have more, but it would take me all night to post them
dammit, all this for naught
The problem with calling Dex Agility is that it doesnt describe all the things that DEX does. Dex is also the main tool for doing crafty things with your hands. Just cause you are agile doesnt mean you are good with your hands, you’d have to be dexterious for it.
The best thing to do is just run a damn D&D game and make it take place in a final fantasy world. Its easy and you dont waist time on crap that wont matter in the long run.
I’ve always had problems with that, DEX covers too much things at once. You could make two different stats: Dexterity, and Agility, but maybe that’s complicating things too much.
Trying to fix D&D complicates things more than just going with what was already done well. While yes, its not perfect, it is alot easier to find people to play with instead of teaching every new player some fabricated half baked system that usually doesnt cover every scenario like D&D’s rule books do.
Dex definatly covers to much.
Maybe, but it wont complicate things nearly as much as an amature tabletop game system…
Why not.
I’m not going to go into an in depth conversation as to WHY “AMATURE” D&D-ish systems suck… But the big reason is that people get so caught up in making somthing that isnt D&D that they forget what makes a system solid, like “OMFG LETS MAKE A FINAL FANTAZY SYSTAM!!!1111”.
Gamers annoy me less when they stop worrying so much about making somthing similar to a specific game and focus more on just telling the story well… Which is why I’m doing FFT in D&D with no alterations. Making new systems is not only too time consuming, but wont get any where in the grand scheme and its retarded for you to have a system that people are unfarmilliar with and would have to learn just to play a game like that.
Hrm… Relearn an entire system and play a half baked game… or? Play a game in a system we already know where the GM has spend 100% of his time on story and plot rather than making leet new system to play teh game!
I used to be with Returnergames before being banned, and let me tell you, they’re damned good at what they do.
give him a break Iz, he’s only 11 :thud:
Who ever told Hades to take a break on the countless preschools he burnt to the ground?
If only I had a D&D group to play with :-/
DUDE, you like Maiden and Rammstien, I’d run a campaign that you could play in if you lived in Washington, lol
