Title: GS&S - Work Updates
Post by: Jubal on December 30, 2012, 01:24:11 PM
A work updates thread so people can see if I'm making progress.

TASK LIST TOWARD GETTING RULEBOOK COMPLETE
Faction Descriptions
Faction Special Rules (In Progress)
Weapon Descriptions
Weapon Rules
Level 3 Careers
Level 4 Careers

Level 2 Career Descriptions
Level 3 Career Descriptions
Level 4 Career Descriptions

Add fuller basic character rules (In Progress)
Rewrite racial class rules (In Progress)
Engineering rules
Content generation & town design rules
Monsters, enemies and mercs list/guide
Flesh out and check main ruleset
Check skill list and make changes/additions
Statistic-test game mechanics

Possible extras:
Plotline for sample campaign
Characters for sample campaign
DM Guide to sample campaign
Quick reference sheet
Character sheets

As of today, I'm finishing off the final faction description for the core rulebook; once I've done the faction special rules and the map, that'll be background pretty much complete. The main bulk of work to go is on weapon rules, fleshing out another thirty to forty careers (which will take an age), and then looking at whether the whole thing still ties together at all.

Just the 2 handed weapons to go for weapon rules. Also been fleshing out other bits of the rules and adding basic info & clarifications that weren't there before.

So. Careers. These are taking a long time.

Done the stat boosts and career exits. Just the skill/item prerequisites and any non-stat boosts to go.

Hmm, I don't suppose there's anything that I can help you with?

So you've nearly got all of the basic stuff done. :) Awesome!

The main challenge now is going to be getting my head back round a set of mechanics that I wrote ages ago to do the remaining special rules etc, I've been focussed on background for ages so going back to maths & probabilities will be an interesting transition.

I promise something will turn up soon. Like double pinkie promise.

Which is to say I've actually finished something and just need to polish a bit and release it.

Also GS&S is getting a devoted web area.  :)

Done more polishing! Writing scripts for a regularly updating web thing is harder than I imagined. :/

Of great excitement to nobody: I'm launching this thing tomorrow.

Added two more pictures to the ForgeFyre site, and updated the landing page text.

Wondering if I should do more background data? Or is there still interest in me getting back to the RPG?

Please? :)

The current chapter only has a couple weeks left, I'm going to take a 2 week hiatus after that after which I'm hoping to have more or less all of Ch 2 written.

I am definitely going to get back to the RPG soon though.  :)
