DFRPG / Re: Using existing scenarios for DFRPG?

Supernatural (Cortex system) has a scenario book out: Supernatural Adventures. I would think some of the Call of Cthulhu and Delta Green adventures could also be adapted.

Starblazer would be another option for running sci-fi games using FATE. I ran a Babylon 5 game using the rules and it went very well.

DFRPG / Re: Non-Standard Settings?
« on: May 10, 2011, 09:40:09 AM »Yes, IF you were using DFRPG. There's Legends of Anglerre, which is a much more fantasy-focused FATE variant and I imagine it would do D&D quite well.As someone who has both Starblazer Adventures and Legends of Anglerre, I can attest that they are both very good games. I've used Starblazer to run a Babylon 5 game and I've just competed a Legends of Anglerre game in a Celtic fantasy setting of my own devising. They are much closer to the Spirit of the Century game though than DFRPG. They have the two stress tracks and numerous stunts of the SotC game.
Have the games up on Google Docs if anyone is interested.

« on: May 08, 2011, 02:12:00 PM »changing mass would have to do something with the "lost" or "gained" mass-energy, and I'd imagine that adds a big level of complexity to the magic involved.And then there's the question of where does it go while you're transformed. Not sure I'd want a percentage of my mass hanging out in the Nevernever while I'm having fun flying around.
The change to animal form without affecting the mass transformed is the default. To get hulking size or diminutive size, you have to spend points.

I'm about to try and start a DFRPG using Fantasy Grounds. This is a virtual tabletop for running pen and paper roleplaying games over the net.

I think the DFRPG game would lend itself to the Supernatural (TV Series) setting or a setting like that of the Eden Studios games (WitchCraft, Armageddon). That said, there are the other RPG games for those settings and it'd depend on how wedded you and your group is to FATE. The Hellboy and John Constantine comic book settings would probably work as well.

DFRPG / Re: Divination Foci--Beyond Crystal Balls and Little Chicago
« on: February 13, 2011, 08:31:03 AM »
Depends on how you see divination. I see the tools as being the focus of the talent of the person, rather than the tools actually doing the divining. In which case, all the magus needs is a focus for the divination vision - something to "project" his vision on to, as it were.
Fire - flames of a fire or a candle
Water - a still pool or bowl of water
Air - clouds
Earth - a flat quartz vein or other shiny rock
Spirit is difficult, perhaps meditation or possibly looking in to one's own eyes in a mirror - a sort of self-soulgaze?

I've got the Kindle DX (2nd Generation), which displays the PDFs fine. However, it's got a 9.7" screen. I'd think the smaller 6" screen would reduce the print size too much. I suppose that in landscape mode it might be okay, but you'll only see a half-page at a time.
