(I posted this in the general forum since my question encompasses several game systems)
Hey folks. First of all, I'm very very new to the games I'm about to mention, so I may get some names/ concepts/ terms mixed up.
I've recently been exposed to Dungeon World, and by extension, somw of the "powered by the apocalypse" game engine. I find it quite bewildering, in a good way. My mind has been working rapidly since... This system/s may enable me to:
- Finally plan and run a campaign I wanted to run for a long time, in Eberron's past.
- Perhaps make a MOD (That is how it's called), or a game that encompasses the vibe, atmosphere and world of Shadowrun but without the bulky and cumbersome mechanics.
But, since I am new to these systems, and since it may have been done before, I thought to ask here:
- Is there any MOD/ game for Eberron? I assume it will use the chasis of Dungeon World. I especially am looking for anything worthehile regarding dragonmarks (Houses & Dragonmarked characters), the artificer, the special races (changeling, shifters, warforged, Kalashtar), and anything dealing with Eberron's specific faiths.
- Is there any MOD/ game for Shadowrun? I assume the archetypes can fairly easily be transfered to "classes/ archetypes" of a sort. Gear could be simplified but I assume some concepts/ systems may need to be worked out (The metrix, dealing with digital authorization and so on, the astral and spirits, and so on).
- Last question: Is there any good source to read from about the apocalypse engine? And how to tweak it/ alter it to make your own content?
Thanks in advance, Kol.
