This is my first thread and even tho it says detailed thats only because the actual game is complex but doesn't need a dedicated crew. Altho i would love to have one that always wants to play.


Hi everyone. My idea is a 'Board game' type RPG. A world simulation where you start out as a weak player and as you go you gain experience, increasing your skills, and make a name for yourself.


Now its not really a board game in fact there is no board involve. Its all simulated using my mind and few basic rules/calculations. You can do anything in it (limited for appropriate audience, nothing inappropriate but you can join criminal syndicates.) the freedom allows for a sort of micro management, say you get in a fight with two powerful creatures, and you have a bow and some arrows. you would tell the game master, me, that you want to shoot one in the foot to slow it down stop it or completely immobilize it. I would use numbers and probability I.E your skill, type of bow and arrows plus luck or any magic abilities and the lvl of the monster to calculate success, but say you are up against 2 goblins and you know you will win you could just say ill fight them and then I'd simply tell you what happened (loot is role able but i don't have that fearer yet.) so this allows for micro management to an insane level or you could simple say do this and see what happens. This also applies to what you can do in the game, like be a farmer (lame) a hero taking quests, or the easiest start, go out find so low levels and kill em.


So its a lot like your typical RPG, like dungeons and dragons, but the difference is there are no limitations to what you could do. its a whole new world and well its just better.


I already have the base for this game, it takes part in my personal fantasy world which does include magic and I need to test the game and make new stuff as we go along and figure things out. I really hope this gets interest. You can even make a Role playing story out of it. So it has almost infinite possibilities.


Post if you are interested and hopefully we can get something going. I can explain more or talk about it if you want me too.


Images below are the overall map for my world and the other one is the World which is playable at the moment


this is a medieval setting btw


This is a Half dice game but the majority of decisions are actual computed (not with dice like battles) but random events and character starts, skills and start equipment are dice able.


Where I'm at now. I have 1 of a lot of continents simulated, including12 different countries. I have 5 different Races you can play as right now, Human, Demon, Undead, Elf (3 kinds), and Dwarf. Depending on what continent and Race you pick can limit your start. You will get a randomized, (basically role) for your starting equipment and money plus the equipment you get for starting as a Race. Human is used as the role model for skill factors for other Races.
