CATPOOP Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 Hi, I am an avid tabletopper and gm for about 15 years. I have been testing and playing a homebrew stormlight game for weeks now. I am now getting to a part where war is coming, my players and I are wanting large scale combat woks style where some are combatants and others generals on the field giving orders. Anyone know of any really cool war like tabletop rpgs that would be helpful for this? Ive been online and coming up short. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iridium Savant he/him Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Hey CATPOOP, So here are the rules for Pathfinder Mass combat. They are simpler than they look at first glance and allow from some growing complexity. I have only used them in one campaign so far but it was a fun system for mass combat that totally allows for those zoom in moments where you can then RP/Roll out your field commander going toe to toe with a squad of assassins or an opposing leader. I am really interested to see your tabletop version of Stormlight, I have been working on my own for the last year and playtesting with one of my friends. Its based off of d20 system. I have about 90% of all the Stormlight powers and abilities built, and the Metallic arts are all finished expect some of the funkier ones like F Chromium. Message me if you want and we can compare notes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undead Wookiee Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 well not strictly dice based but there are many table top war games that use miniatures - like Warhammer 40k among many of them. May be some sort of hybrid - you can use simple cardboard stand-ins for troops and the like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
