Im runing a oneahot with some family is there a simple #d6 based #ttrpg system? Im most familiar with #dnd5e but im fine if its verey different.
Edit: i played useing #risus and omg it was so fun i ran a #scp based adventure for 2 hours and only 20mins was spent teaching complete newbies to ttrpgs how to play highly recommended for its simple quick character creation. It was hard to rule as i wasn't used to the system but that comes with experience
Thanks for the Recommends tho :heart_cyber_pink:

@SJohnRoss It was just mentioned earlier today on our Discord and the first response was that #RISUS is still the best Discworld TTRPG. @TheBeardedBelgian

@Mycomancer Oh, so many that i want to run or play. I’ve been in a long dry spell of #TTRPG due to reasons.
Anyway, games I want to play and/or run:
#ThirstySwordLesbians
#DungeonWorld
#Monsterhearts2
#Wield
#Fudge/#Fate
#Risus
#Threadbare
#FiveByFiveI could go on and on. Now four of them, Fudge, Fate, Risus, and Five By Five, are more toolkits than games, but they’re great nonetheless.

The first thing to know about the CHEATS System is that it's not just another gaming system. It's so much less than that!
I've used it with several different dice resolution schemes. I will tinker with that forever.
It is pretentiously and aggressively backronymed from its PC building blocks:
Core
Hallmarks
Energies
Approaches
Talents
StuffIt is influenced by everything I've ever read but specifically by #Risus #BladesInTheDark #HarmonyDrive and #MiniBX .

@SJohnRoss (Amusingly, my copy of Excessively Deluxe Risus is shelved right next to 10th Anniversary FUDGE.)

@Morgunin Ha, Palladium Fantasy was the first #ttrpg I ever played and GMed. And a lot of long campaigns in RIFTS. Many fond memories.
Wouldn't touch its horribly broken rules with a 10-ft-pole anymore, though. ;)
I think the 7 rpgs that had the most impact on me from then to now are:
#Palladium / #RIFTS
#DnD and #d20Modern
#7th Sea
#MarvelUniverse (the diceless one)
#Risus
#FATE

@andrew0ak I’m going to second Risus. Another game that’s almost as simply is PDQ.
Then there are several games that have a single stat like, “lasers and feeling”, “3:16”, or “Cthulhu Dark”.
“The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen” isn’t a rpg but it’s a great tall tale story telling game, fun to do with friends and a drinks.
