Besides if I want less, there's HARP.<br /><br />I'm really glad to see RM still around. It was the first fantasy system I liked after D&D. Had most the Merp modules. Norman J.

You bought rankings in both. RMU only has skills.<br /><br />To buy skills you bought them with Development Points, that were variable according to five of your stats. Now it's a flat 50 DP per level.<br /><br />Character creation tended to take a while. In RMU I think it's going to go quicker.<br /><br />If they don't change too much it will be easier for new players to learn, and create characters, and be flow and play better. Actually, if they change too much it won't be Rolemaster anymore, and I would stick with RMSS.Zanazazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04980968371007703230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6719349258866182415.post-39519097022215007032012-10-10T20:37:43.364-05:002012-10-10T20:37:43.364-05:00I'm not that familiar (don't remember) RMS...I'm not that familiar (don't remember) RMSS and looked very briefly at playtest, it didn't seem that different. What do you see as less crunchy?Norman J. Harman Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01319655075997712313noreply@blogger.com
