CK|XT Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Hi all, Thought I'd ask here of those who know the system best. I've played Champs before (its been a few years now, haven't touched it in about 6 or 7 years) and am currently putting together a fantasy campaign. Its cinematic, the magic framework I have in mind is inspired by Shadowrun (hermetic, spiritual, with elements and spirits), and I'd like to be able to plug in elements of Exalted (stunts, charms). The big question: Can Fantasy Hero fit the bill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin273 Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Re: Is Fantasy Hero appropriate for... Definately! See the Fantasy Champions in the genre section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CK|XT Posted December 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Re: Is Fantasy Hero appropriate for... Thanks very muchly for the Shadowrun magic conversion? The next obvious one is... has anyone done any groundwork for Exalted conversions? Yeah, I know, but I'd hate to re-do work that someone else has already done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big question: Can Fantasy Hero fit the bill? Is the campaign actually Fantasy or is it more ShadowRunny? If its the latter I would say that FH and Dark Champions in combination would work very nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CK|XT Posted January 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2005 Re: Is Fantasy Hero appropriate for... Its more fantasy; the Shadowrunny element I liked for several reasons: The 'spontaneity' - being able to fire off a spell, adjust the power level, push the power level, tack on options Drain to punish spell failure No 'spell memorization' (a la AD&D) Built in summoning with: - magic assist from elements - interaction with spirits A lot of it I think fits into a fantasy milieu.
