Thank you for this! Some old friends and I are hoping to get back into Fantasy role playing for the first time in 25 years soon. We were thinking we would have to get the old basic D&D box sets somehow... (we've been out of if for a long, long time lol) Basic Fantasy RPG sounds perfect for us. We want something simple, so that we spend more time playing and less time feeling like lawyers.

It would make more sense to use d20 style ability rolls for consistency since it already uses it for attacks. In some ways, this sounds more deadly than old-school D&D (at least the version I learned), as I remember poison killing after a set time, all for a cure poison spell to be cast.

I like this. It's a good guideline, and that's all I need. I needed a good jumping back in point, and I prefer this over paying top dollar for a bunch of overpriced Wizards of Greedy Hasbro 5e. I used to play D&D with my friends in middle and high school in the 90s, but you know how it can be maintaining a group as people move away, have careers, busy schedules, and that alienating time can do to us. Now I am married to a fellow nerd, we have 5 kids, 3 of which are already old enough to read, and the oldest is into fantasy fiction. We can do this as a family thing in the winter especially. My way a GM'ing was always to use the rules as a basic guide, let the dice decide the fates, but I liked coming up with worlds and story building with options. One thing I found I needed to do with older D&D was nerf the rate at which characters got exp, as well as factor in things like how much help players may have received from an npc or situational advantage, which reduces exp gained whenever a challenge wasn't really as hard as it otherwise would have been. Games that give GM's some flexibility with things like that I always prefer.

@@2000TalesRolePlaying I did have one question whenever you have the time to answer. 🙂 Do weapons have their own attack bonus, or does it just go by the AB your character has? This kinda stumps me sometimes. Until I found BFRPG, I wasn't too familiar with B/X D&D, so I'm still learning the ropes a bit. 😅 Like my elf fighter as an example. She's a level one, so her attack bonus is +1. Would the +1 also be for her weapons?

On the lack of "game balance" for encounters. This game IS a bit more work on the GM. The GM does have to figure out their own balance based on their players abilities. Running OSR games is as much of an ART as it is a science. Newer versions of D&D have removed ALL the art from the craft of DM'ing.

I got BF book and its a fine game. I always wanted a game system that combines lots of the best rules into 1 ttrpg and this game system I love: D100 Dungeon by MK Games from Martin Knight. 1 thing about D100 Dungeon is no GM needed, the dice & tables are the GM.

I got into Dark Fantasy Basic, it is super stripped down D&D, 4 classes humans that's it. About a dozen spells you can cast however you want. Fire, it's ball its wall its cone, how strong do you want it? Any strength you want the DC just go's up. Customize character through feats that are pretty simple. I like it because when everything is epic nothing is epic. Dragons Orcs and vampires are not special if you have 2 dragonborns and a vampire half orc in your party. Also I am not a fan of multiclass because then it becomes about power leveling. It's a role playing game pick a role and play it.

Also Dark Fantasy Basic character background supplies (it's like a dollar maybe) has a cool way of doing stats. Roll 3d20 and a table with options from type of game you want from hopeless to gritty to epic, generates 6 stats. I really like that because it like picking difficulty level for the kinda game you want.

Is there a modules that I can play solo or do I need to buy different resources to create a solo campaign?

@MoonMoverGaming
@MoonMoverGaming 3 года назад
Roll your hit die to determine how many hit points you have, then roll it again each time you level up to determine how many more hit points you gain. Monsters also have hit dice (typically more than one, all of which are typically d6's), which the dungeon master rolls to determine how many hit points they have. The number of hit dice a monster has also determines its attack bonus.

On races: "If you don't get attribute bonuses, why do you take these other races..." It's this little thing called ROLEPLAYING. Don't play an dwarf for the +1 to constitution. Play a dwarf to be a short, bearded Clint Eastwood character. Making decisions "for plusses" is not in the spirit of the game. No matter your choices, you won't be very survivable at the start. So make a character that's interesting to you regardless of the numbers. Expect the worst, hope for the best. On clerics: Essentially "Turn Undead" is the cleric's first spell. It's not great but it gets better over time. On fighters: Fighters actually have the MOST special abilities. Every other class it's essentially codified in abilities. With Fighters you have to make up stuff and the Ref has to figure out the odds of that stuff working (more on this later). Then you have to agree to those odds and roll. It's a full different mindset than current editions. Fighters are pulp heroes. Indiana Jones is an example of a mid-level OSR Fighter. Now other characters can do this as well, but since the fighter HAS to do it, he's more likely to interface with this. On thieves: Their small HD and low XP table are intentional, they are supposed to run 1-2 HD above the rest of the party over time. While not fighters, they can become a bit roguish but shouldn't push their luck in combat. As Sneak Attack has been bastardized over time (modern editions should call it "Flanking Bonus"), it's almost better to call it an Ambush Bonus nowadays. Because you only get it at the beginning of an ambush. On Monsters vs NPCs: Monsters are just NPCs you failed the reaction roll on. Reaction rolls are essentially the things that keep 1st level characters alive. On non-thief skills: B/X has an unwritten rule that non-Thieves have a 1/6 (~16%) chance of doing anything (rational/logical/possible). This can be logically be benefitted by this or that bonus, circumstances, etc. Like if it seems like a PC has a 50/50 shot of something, the Ref should give them a 3/6 chance. It's all very much a pure risk reward system. The Ref determines the odds, tells the player, then the player chooses to go through with the roll or not. This dynamic is very important to OSR play. How to handle a baseline penalty? I shift the die up a size. So something with less chance working goes to 1/8 (~13%), then 1/10 (10%), etc. The Rules Cyclopedia is actually not based on Moldvay B/X, it's a revision and consolidation of Mentzer BECMI minus the I (Wrath of the Immortals came out later to fix this). Sorry that's just a pet peeve of mine.
