Title: Anyone interested in doing a conversion?
Post by: Michael Hopcroft on June 14, 2003, 07:54:16 AM
I wonder if anyone would be interested in doing a system conversion sheet between HeartQuest and Cartoon Action Hour?

If anyone is willing to do it, I can post it on Seraphim Guard's website and if Spectrum game Studios does the same it would provide some welcome support and publicity for both products.

The conversion can be for either HeartQuest 1st edition or HeartQuest Diceless. the 1st Edition rules, by the way, will be largely intact in 2nd edition if you're not using it as a D20  game.

It's just that I admite what Cynthia has done so much that I really want to help her out.

You gotta give me some time to read through HeartQuest again,
but other than that, I would be willing to do that.

I don't know what it is with conversions, but ever since I wrote my conversion charts from Stormbringer (B.R.P.) to Storyteller, and from Stormbringer and Fuzion to Cartoon Action Hour, people have been saying I'm good at writing them.
Oh, and by the way, I also used to have a BESM to Cartoon Action Hour chart around here somewhere... if only I could remember where I put it. LOL

Wouldn't a BESM 2nd Edition to HeartQuest conversion work out even better?
Or, once I get done writing it, you could then sink your teeth into a three-way conversion:
HeartQuest to BESM to CAH, or the other way round. *g*

The big question is just, how many gamers are actually interested in a conversion? More and more players have expressed an attitude that was more like, "Hey, let's just get right into the game. Why not just give it a rest and play HeartQuest with HeartQuest characters, CAH with CAH characters, and so on?"

I'll look into HeartQuest FUDGE again, I promise.
But I noticed that I lost your file of HeartQuest Diceless on my computer, so I could only work from the Fudge version.
