Conversions of other systems

Thu 14 Apr 2022, 22:07

I'm looking to convert the new Terminator RPG to Twilight 2K. Now, part of the issue I see is certain attributes registering above A. Any ideas what dice to use or such for those Abilities?

The next point is skills going from 1-4 and missing that 5th skill level. Where should the 5th level get placed?

I think a simple way would be to add dice. A single level above would be d6, two levels d8, and so on. So a one level above a d12 would roll a d12 and a d6. Two levels would roll a d12 and a d8. And so on. The maximum number of successes would be a total of 4 (the base game maximum). The higher attribute and/or skill has a better chance of success but doesn't take the success above the maximum.

For the skills it'd be the same so a 5th level skill level would roll a d12 and a d6.

d14 & d16 are pretty common and easy to get now due to other rpgs expanding and using dice chains alot like FL T2k

Using D12 plus D6 seems simpler, as they're more readily available. Also, it opens up possibilities to give these additional D6s slightly modified rules, such as the ammo dice have.
