Can you explain the different approach Grimmgard takes to the Wild Die from "standard" D6?
Thanks!
Q1:Character creation bios: Are these character bios the full story to just give the a taste to what lies deeper for the player to choose from or do you have a family tree of stories that give each character breath? 2: Weapons: Are these the only type weapons in the entire game world of Grimmgard? 2A: Can players create hybrid weaponr? 3: Location names: There are 49 world locations. But in each location there are great number of named areas. What was your thought process on coming up with so many names within a particular location?
D6 2nd Edition employs a "Wild Die" as a 6-sided die thrown in additional to your skill rolls to take an action. Instead, GD6 (Grimmgard D6) employs the additional 6-sided die as a "Luck Die." The result of this extra die is ignored unless it comes up as a 1 or a 6. A 1 result reduces your Luck pool by a point, while a 6 result adds a point.
Feel free to use your own House Rules and change it as suits your preferences! Some players have commenting that a D6 Luck Die made changes to their Luck pool too frequently, so they used a D10 or D12 instead. Others opted not to use the Luck Die during combat in order to keep play moving quickly.
