RPGaDAY2025 – Day 16 – Overcome

What’s #RPGaDAY2025 ? See the details here.

Day 16 – Overcome

For this one, I’ll discuss methods of overcoming one of the greatest problems facing humanity today – the near illegibility of the challenge dice for Modiphius’ 2d20 games, specifically the Conan game.

What are challenge dice?

2d20 is the house system for many RPGS from Modiphius – Conan, John Carter of Mars, Fallout, etc. The 2d20 system uses d20s for most tasks, but for damage and other results many 2d20 games use challenge (or combat) dice. A Challenge die is a six-sided die that can return one of the following results: 1, 2, blank, or Effect.

You can of course use a regular six-sided dice, but custom challenge dice make the game flow a lot more smoothly. Thankfully, Modiphius produces custom dice sets for all of their games.

So what’s the problem? The problem is that Modiphius over-designed them a bit. The Conan dice look like crumbling stone. The Star Trek adventure dice (1st Edition only) are star-speckled. They look good, but in a fast-paced game they’re a little hard to read.

Suggested Fixes

Asking around on and offline, it’s been suggested to me I could use some of the challenge dice for other games, John Carter of Mars specifically. This will work, but buying a lot of these for all of the players can get a little pricey.

My Ugly Solution

My current idea is using some cheap blank six-sided dice and making my own legible challenge dice. I used my Silhouette paper cutter to make some templates, and drew the appropriate symbols on the dice with a black sharpie.

It’s far from perfect. There’s a bit of smearing and I’m not sure how long they’ll last. Next time I’ll try a different paint, and perhaps use some kind of varnish.

#JohnWick, #L5RRPG #7thSea etc., remains one of the most exciting #ttrpg designers. He deals with the #Daggerheart scene hype, the #Fear problem, in a correspondingly thoughtful way. But he also offers a solution. Fear reminds me of #MutantChronicles #2D20 Doom, which did not work with munchkins.

Daggerheart First Thoughts!

Hey #ttrpg community, does #Modiphius have a "DM's Guild"/"Storyteller's Vault" style place/source for #2d20 fan creations? Or even such a source for individual games?

Furthering my descent into #2d20 madness, I just picked up the free #HeroesOfMightAndMagic quickstart. It's the closest they have to a "generic" fantasy game. Between that and the SRD I'll have plenty to read on my laptop at dialysis for a few sessions.

In the past month or so I've picked up the #Fallout #TTRPG and #StarTrekAdventures 2e. Last night, I pulled the trigger and bought the core book for the #JohnCarter core book as well, and today I grabbed the free #2d20 #SRD from DriveThru.

I might be a bit enthusiastic about the system.

Modiphius #2D20 #Conan #TTRPG was unfortunately far too pompous for me. In my opinion, #DnD variants are completely unsuitable for "savage" #SwordandSorcery! The new #Conan #ttrpg is clearly aiming towards #BoL ’s ease, which is basically great! Let's see. The new books are very beautiful…
