Ronin Glory rule set - a new RPG

It looks like it won't be long before I'm asking for some readers to thumb through a set of RPG instructions. I think I'm nearly halfway done. It's not edited or illustrated but if what you see already here is tolerable, I'd invite you to raise your hand so I can send you a copy when this stage is done.

This guides players and GMs to make settings and NPCs fitting for Ronin adventurers with a non-combat preference. The mechanics and tone allow for any play style however. Certain tables aren't available yet but that wouldn't affect a read-through or even a short campaign.

Hey, Skane! How's it going? I tried reading some of the pages you posted. The result: My poor eyesight couldn't make out most of the text because the font was so tiny. 

I’m not a huge fan of Japanese settings for RPGs, but I do like to see how different creators approach the genre. If you’re looking for feedback, try re-uploading some of those pages in a larger size, or post excerpts as PDFs—maybe that will help you get some feedback.

Best regards.

Uploaded a PDF preview of pages 1 - 3 to offer a touch of flavor. The little screenshots were just to show that it's finally happening. I'm on a tight self-imposed deadline, so there won't be a lot of lag in between updates but they'll be really incremental. Text images below...

I really like everything, you can clearly feel the obsession and enthusiasm behind it. Honestly, I don’t really know how to evaluate it properly, or even give you ideas

When I was a kid, my brother, who’s 10 years older than me, had this tabletop RPG book called Aquelarre set in medieval Spain
I never actually played it, but I remember spending hours reading it, all the creatures, weapons, stats, imagining matches, characters, and stories
For a moment, looking at everything you’ve done, it transported me back to that time, so from me, it’s a 10/10

Wonderful! That's a great story to know 🙏 I'll keep the tone and I'll remember to give the direct portions of rules room for imagination too. 

Here and elsewhere, everyone's input has been very helpful and kind. I thank you! It's my first time ever possibly finishing something like this on such a large scale. I'm hopeful this is going to go ok without too many mistakes or hiccups! Here's a lightly censored view (whited out) of text-only pages 6 through 10. It's how the GM section starts out.

Thanks so much again and please consider Following Ronin Glory TTRPG to help seed new interest. PDFs instead of jpgs at the game page....




Turns out it's 6 through 11 but I hope you'll enjoy a couple new mechanics that are coming for NPCs and Strength!
