Finally followed up on Mistworld, as I slowly rework it to be ready when BRP comes out.

Appreciated the questions I got last time and the advice, including a number of e-mails.

Regards,

Heya,

What do you mean by, "When BRP comes out." ?

Peace,

BRP = Basic Role Playing, Chaosium's upcoming release (already through playtesting), kind of a RQV/StormbringerIX/Call of Cthulhu VII rules superset.

Mistworld has been both a stand alone and a BRP compatible system since the first BRP/Runequest I came out, in the mechanics, though the magic system of matrix magic was dramatically different and the setting a bit surreal.  Honestly, the idea of the magic system (how often have you ever had a character out run a spell or dodge behind something in a game?) and the setting kind of drove the whole thing.  Really a small item of whimsy, all in all.

But, I got some artwork for it, which in combination with some comments I got by people following up on my Shattered Norns setting I mentioned here, got me moving, eventually.

Heya,

I thought that's what you meant.  You know that Mongoose has just released an SRD (basically an OGL) for the newest version of RuneQuest here: http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/pdf/rqsrd.zip

If you're looking to get started on your game right away, you might try looking at that.

Peace,

-Troy

Thanks, but I've decided to go with Chaosium's BRP rather than Mongoose's RQ.  Appreciate the thought though.
