USH'S LORD OF THE RINGS GAME- Main Rules and character creation (Updated 2011)

Well, where are your two money options going?

Horse, as they were last time, kinda need that seeing as I am Eothed. But ofc I expected a change in gear when I read the new system.

Ok, you can have a point of Money for going through Baranar, then.

woot! I got something out of naggin' I never give my players anything when they nag Lol THX USH
I'll use the point to buy chain armor then.

Talin always welcome, Rex!

Oh, I'm sure he is! Thing is, I hardly remember the Journey to Fornost, and I get incredibly lost when I try to join in on the current game.

Luckily, Rex- or unluckily for me- no-one else does either, and everyone else gets confused too. We are in a process of rebuilding.

Well, in that case, I'll try to give it a go...again.

And if I finally get a grasp of things, Anglomir and William Took might make a return as well, since I'll be able to help BB and Zink make sense of things.

*skips off to make Talin again*

Ok im going to attempt to do this again today from the beginning.

Just to make sure I got it Ush there is no more trading skill points like Subterfuge for General or Weapon skill points. The only swap that is allowed is Perception/Herbalism and Secondary skills right?

Basically, yes.

K thx

I'm making my character when you bug your brother Ush!

Why would he need to bug his brother? ermm

Anyways, Talin is in the works.

Tpt wants the Essence Magic rules.

Yup...

Ah, right.

How many points for equipment do you get with the Money background?

And would anything labeled 'Metal Armor' count as Chainmail?

Each Money background is wqorth one money choice.

And yes.

Okay, let's hope I did this right...

And what is the quality item? As a weapon, it needs to be a particular sort. An Axe, I am guessing.
