Best RPG that solely makes use of D6 cube?

WEG d6 Star Wars is difficult to beat, the one one which makes use of simply d6 and supersedes it’s Traveller.

Yeah for me I flip flop on whether or not Traveller or the fanmade Revised, Expanded and Updated SWd6 guidelines are one of the best d6 guidelines. I feel I gravitate extra in direction of Traveller as a result of the character creation is so superior and distinctive. I do not know why different video games did not steal it tbh.

It could be very polarizing I feel — folks both love Traveller character technology or loath it. I do know none (though I’m positive they’re on the market) who’re ambivalent. My spouse loves character technology, however has by no means performed. I like character technology greater than the precise gameplay, which I discover gradual and clunky. So many pluses and minuses to every roll to find out and monitor every time. Been fascinated by how you can velocity it up however retain similar taste.

I like the thought of all the 12 months zero video games I personal – you simply use d6’s and solely 6’s depend for essentially the most half (successes), the remainder of the methods may be form of wonky although. Having so as to add up massive piles of cube is not my favourite decision mecanic.

Same right here. My spouse and I performed our first VTT session final night time and it was our first time enjoying a Modiphius system — John Carter of Mars. So many numbers particular guidelines and caveats and addendum. You add up successes for the attacker, then the defender, then determine when you get any bonus momentum, decide when you really succeeded, after which roll for harm (which both wants their particular 6 sided cube or so that you can bear in mind what every quantity really means).

My spouse felt the system actually obtained in the best way of position enjoying. Even the those who had been enjoying for 18 months weren’t snug with the principles. She appreciates extra our homebrew which is single die opposed rolls. (Dice on all sides are virtually all the time totally different sizes — not a d6-only system.)

IMHO for me and buddies the longer the decision time is (both determining what mechanics to invoke, how you can use them, or really utilizing them) the much less enjoyable/immersive the sport is.

That’s my situation w/ Fate proper now, which is definitely advantageous (I’m utilizing Fate condensed) – nevertheless you consistently have to determine which set of baroque mechanics to make use of and how you can use them, and when you do it improper you get an un-fun outcome. But you are probably not studying something as a result of the subsequent scenario is totally different. Once you do determine it out thought the decision is fairly fast.

I’m going make a cheat sheet for John Carter with all of the totally different attribute mixtures and potential abilities (like feats or abilities) my character has for various actions. I’ll do the identical for my spouse’s character. I did not really feel too dangerous about consistently asking what I used to be supposed to make use of because it was my first time enjoying and the parents enjoying for 18 months had bother protecting it straight too.

I am unable to think about it ever being fast although. LOL

I need to confess that coming from a polyhedral background,  I went from considering it was bizarre and maybe a bit boring to base every little thing on d6’s solely; to actually liking the even larger variety of totally different polyhedral cube in DCC; to deciding that every one that stuff was enjoyable and attention-grabbing, however not what I actually wished in gaming.  Then I ended up contemplating d6 solely, and that i cherished it.  There are other ways to do it.  There are extra prospects than one would suppose.

D6 primarily based RPGs are cool, man!!!
