    Fantasy AGE

    Green Ronin has finally released the Fantasy AGE core rulebook in PDF form at DriveThruRPG. The hardcover will be available at GenCon and afterwards, along with the companion book for Wil Wheaton's Titansgrave: The Ashes of Valkana setting from his web series.

    I know that in the past folks have discussed the possibility of a Dragon Age ruleset in Fantasy Grounds, and I was wondering if the team had reached out to Green Ronin Publishing about the possibility of licensing with Fantasy Grounds. Fantasy AGE is the system that was developed on the foundation of the Dragon Age system and I think it'd be outstanding if this wound up being a licensed product within Fantasy Grounds. I know for sure I'll be letting the team know at GenCon that I'd love to see their content licensed in FG.

    I'd like to see one too. If it weren't for the Dragon die CoreRpg could be used to run it.
    I'm pretty sure a ruleset without a library could be made without licensing though.
    In any case, AGE support of any kind would be nice!

    Talking to the publishers and getting them onside is a good thing...

    CoreRPG can do it with the extension created by the fantastic (!) Trenloe in this thread https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?25068-Change-colour-on-1-dice

    There is of course no automation, but this is the main thing.

    I wanted to use the parser to make the mod, but the video demo of the parser for non 5e material scared me. LOL

    My plan was to use par5e for the reference manual and equipment but didn't think about a character sheet with all the abilities. That's a good idea if referenced and organized somewhere else as well. I want to use the MoreCore to allow for some targeting (attack only because Armor couldn't be accounted for fo damage) and the colored dice example extension for the stunt die.

    Then on the waiting for the Titan's Grave sourcebook to come out

    Good job sehmerus!

    Remember that Fantasy Age material is covered by copyright. The game mechanics (dice rolling, etc.) aren't covered by copyright so putting together a basic framework to play the game is OK. However, the descriptive text from the RPG can't be distributed due to copyright - this includes the text of abilities, talents, etc. as these are descriptive text. You can use titles and any game mechanic "numbers", but descriptive prose can't be included. See the screenshot here for what's been done in the Star Wars libraries: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...l=1#post210563 The game mechanic info (title, weapon qualities, price, weight, etc.) is included but the descriptive text isn't - a reference to the RPG rulebook is included where more info can be found.

    Yes Trenloe, My own version will have game details, the version I share (if i share at all) will not. I Havent messed with Color die yet (for now im having the die result on the left most of the display be the dragon/action Die.) but its good to know that is available. I have started using More-Core so i can give health to npc & players.

    A buddy and I have been working on a Fantasy Core Ruleset, Core Book Plug In and Titans Grave Module. It is looking awesome so far. We should be ready to use it in another week to two weeks tops or so.

    I just finished the War Of the Dead Modules so I will be working on Fantasy Age and Dragon Age now for a bit.
