Aderon 1.3

The new Aderon book is up at http://www.fileh.com/aderonrpg/AderonRPG.pdf. This is now version 1.3, and it is 64 pages. As soon as I can (which will be a while), I will add in Specialized classes, Master Class levels, Empowered items, and more! The Sessions on the Message Board have been going on for a while, and is still running strong, so check it out if you want.

Thanks for your support,

Andinel

Standard Update

Hi Everyone,

Thank you so much for getting me characters finally for the online game. If you still want to play, just send it to me.
Anyway, there have been problems downloading the rules, and the main one is that I no longer have a file host. If you know of a free or cheap one, then please let me know (aderon.rpg@gmail.com).

I also want to revamp the Two-Weapon Combat SA. Please post suggestions on the board!

Checking In

Hello everyone,

If you download the rules, I'm sure you'll notice a few changes. First, rounds are now measured in AP instead of seconds. It works the same though. Second, Fatigue points now have a different system of calculation. Third, Focus is now known as Spirit. And fourth and final, there is a new character sheet, but it has exactly the same stuff on it. Just minor, cosmetic changes.

Thanks,

Andinel

Creation Summary

Just to sum up what you need for character creation:

• Character must be built on 30 points, as described in Chapter 1: Character Creation
• Character must be e-mailed to aderon.rpg@gmail.com on the template in the Downloads
• E-mail must include a 1-paragraph minimum written history/personality of your character
• Character may be of any race, but cannot be either a Gunner or a Mechanist

Using these 4 guidelines, please complete the character correctly.

Thank you,
Andinel

Update: 11/18/05 : Balancing Aderon

In order to help balance the game further, I have changed the range of Stats from 4-24 to 5-20, reducing the maximum score at first level from 27 to 23, and helping keep characters' actions in check. I also put in a couple of things I missed before.

Thanks to the change in ability scores, characters are now to be built on 30 points instead of 40. Don't worry, you'll still have a good character no matter what. I have also decided that no Gunners or Mechanists will be allowed for this online game. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to e-mail me (aderon.rpg@gmail.com).

Updates: 11/12/05

Wow...getting close to a year since Aderon was first tried out. Well, anyway, the new updates are:
• Semi-fixed damage system, as to speed up combat
• Caught an error! No Focus cost for Powers was listed. Now fixed

Remember, send in your characters and a 1 paragraph character background/personality on the template in the downloads as soon as possible if you want to play Aderon online!

I know it sounds repetitive, but characters are built on 40 points, as described in chapter 1!

The sooner I get 3 more characters, the sooner we can start!

Site Change

Update

I finally got the internet in my room, so I updated. All of the updates I said I would do in the previous post are complete, and in the new rules.

Now, to the Online Game.

Our forums have moved to http://s13.invisionfree.com/aderon_rpg, so go there and sign up as soon as you can. Whenever you can, e-mail your characters to me (aderon.rpg@gmail.com) to be part of the game. HURRY UP! I ONLY HAVE 2 COMPLETE CHARACTER SHEETS!!! A format for the character sheets is also here now in the downloads, so make sure to get that and type your character on it. It is in Microsoft Word format, so I hope you can read it. If not, e-mail me asking for a format sheet.

Remember that all characters for the game are to be built on 40 points, as outlined in the first chapter.

Update Coming Soon.

As the title of this post says, I have finished the update to Aderon. The changes are just minor, but include:

• A complete description of every Skill Ability
• A slightly modified Character Sheet
• A more extensive description of Combat Actions
• A few new limits on Guns
• Two new weapon groups: Rifles and Crossbows

Remember, each character is built on 40 points, and must be e-mailed to me with a one-paragraph character background/description summary. My email address is aderon.rpg@gmail.com.

Also, remember, the new forums are here, so don't forget to sign up!

Of Small Tweaks and Site Changes

As you all know, Aderon is not perfect.
That's what the small tweaks are for.
In about a week I will be putting up a slightly revised version of the rules. Don't worry, it's most likely nothing that affects you.

Now on to the site changes.
The official Aderon forum has moved to http://s13.invisionfree.com/aderon_rpg, but I'll be shortening that to http://aderonrpg.co.nr soon.

Have fun playing (when it finally starts)

Andinel

That new version of the rules with Bard and Druid

Yes, as you can tell by the title, the version of Aderon that you download now is complete with the Bard and Druid core classes.

I only have 1 finished character sheet and 2 incomplete ones out of the 5 to 8 characters that I would like to begin play with. Please send them to me at aderon.rpg@gmail.com. The sooner I get them and a 1-paragraph background, the sooner we can play. Remember:

Each character is built off of 40 points using the points-based generation system explained at the end of the first chapter.

I look forward to beginning play,

Andinel

Game beginning

PLEASE, ANYONE WHO STILL VISITS THIS PAGE, CHARACTERS ARE DUE IN NOW LATER, BECAUSE THEY WERE DUE TODAY, BUT I ONLY HAVE ONE. SEND THEM IN AS SOON AS YOU CAN!

On a lighter note, a newer version of rules is coming out soon including Bard and Druid as core classes. If you want to play either one of those, send me an e-mail and I will make sure to update the download as soon as possible.

Aderon Update

A new set of core rules with minor changes has replaced the old one on the downloads. Please download this new one to make your Aderon RPG character. I still haven't seen any characters, and they are due in 2 days. If I do not have your characters soon, I will be forced to move back the game another week.

Please remember to send me your character sheets and at least a 1 paragraph background. Remember, characters will be built off of 40 points.

You can always contact me by e-mail at aderon.rpg@gmail.com.


Please send in your characters soon,

Andinel


UPDATE: One more minor change to the document. This is the last one, so please download it ASAP!

Online Game

I have finally finished the Aderon RPG core rules set. It can be downloaded here. There is just one error: I forgot this rule:

Weapon Proficiency
When attacking with a weapon that a character is proficient with, a +1 bonus is added to the Accuracy check. If a character multiclasses, then he gains the new weapon proficiencies of his new class plus all of his proficiencies from his old class.

Armor Proficiency
If a character is wearing armor that he is not proficient with, he takes a penalty on all of his Accuracy rolls equal to the armor's CSpd-.

Anyone can learn one new proficiency group per level of Weapon/Armor Usage (as appropriate) after making the appropriate Difficulty 20 check.



Characters are due on July 20th. Go to the message board to see updates and to see where to send your characters.


Have a great summer break,
Andinel

Delays

I really apologize for all the delays in Aderon. It'll be done before summer. Live and Online sessions will start on Wednesday, July 20th. If you have any questions, e-mail me or post it on the message boards.

New Errors noticed

I apologize, but as I was looking through the rules this morning, I noticed something wrong with them. I will have them finalized hopefully by tonight. Until then, please do not download the rules I have posted. Thank you.

Andinel

Small Changes

I am sorry, but the edition of the Aderon RPG core rules released last night had some minor flaws. These flaws have been fixed, and the game is now available for download, completed and corrected.

I hope that online play can begin soon. Go to the main message boards to sign up.

Andinel

IT'S FINISHED!

Hello everybody,

I am pleased to announce that the Aderon Role-Playing Game is now fully operational, with the release of the complete rules document. You can download it in the downloads section. It contails all of the previous files, in addition to some new ones. Download the game now so that you can play in the online games.

New Rules Updates

Hello everybody,

I am sorry for the delay, but I have not had much to post recently. Since this week it was spring break, I have been working on Aderon a lot, and I am down to missing less than 2 rules documents: the Combat system and the Guardians. Once I have given everything a proofread, I will put them up on the downloads sidebar for public access. I hope to have it done by next week.

Andinel

Uploads!

I have finally finished the Thief class. It is available for download on the Class Documents page. Click on the link in the sidebar to go there. Also, I have put a new character sheet up for download. This one includes the Computer Operation and Persuasion/Negotiations abilities, which I had previously left out. Don't worry, you can still download it through the sidebar, though. The Warrior class and other rules are soon to come!

Andinel

Update: As of now, the Warrior class is downloadable. This marks the last Core Class download on the site, so play on the Message Boards will start soon.
