Homebrew Type System - Beta Bit of Pathfinder's Kingdom's and War system and the 3.x Birthright Campaign Setting. There's a bit of stripping of rules for simplicity and fun. Adding a bit of Paradox's game system to the mix. [ Character Sheets ]
[ Premise / Forward ]
SPACE Players start off as adventurers. If they survive, they get to found a town. If they lead the town successfully, they may find themselves as noble houses within a new kingdom fighting for their slice of the world.
[ Setting Information / Background ]
SPACE From lowly adventurer's getting paid to explore a new region to the Founders of a new settlement to the Eventual Rulers of a new World, Players will experience will the other side of adventuring; Retirement.
[ Character Creation ]
You will only need to roll the d12 when creating a Secondary Character.
12 is either a reroll or player's choice.
You will only need to roll the d8 when creating a Secondary Character.
8 is either a reroll or player's choice.
Secondary Character's Kingdom Scores are randomly assigned by previous method.
The following three Kingdom Scores will be used primarily outside of the Adventure Phase. You take the average of the two scores assigned (round down). Ability Scores assigned to one of the following Kingdom Scores can not be used for another Kingdom Score. ie you lock in two ability scores to each kingdom score. Like DEX / STR to MIL, CHA / WIS to ADM and INT / CON to DIP.
Administrative [ADM]
Diplomatic [DIP]
Military [MIL]

So, would we just make AR rolls for everything? And when it says "Roll 6d6, add one roll to each", does that mean one die result to each? (i.e.: one of the dice rolled a 6, I would add it to a -2 for an ability score of 4?)

(i.e.: one of the dice rolled a 6, I would add it to a -2 for an ability score of 4?) Yes, that means you can assign any one die result to an Ability Score. Think of the Ability Scores being reduced to simply Ability modifiers since that's the number we'll be using for the majority of the game. Adventure Rolls (AR) is only used in the Adventure Step of the game. But as it is the first part of the game, you'll be using it about 90% of the time until the next step.

I think I get the gist, and yet I don't think I get it quite clearly. So instead of complicated character sheets, we'll be blazing through most part of the game with simple mechanics?
And regarding the magic, say I make a sorcerer. Does the bloodline part take into account?

And regarding the magic, say I make a sorcerer. Does the bloodline part take into account? Yes, the idea is to keep as simple and as clean as possible. This isn't Pathfinder. It just takes some elements from it that were in the d20 SRD.

Ah, okay, that clears things up. Let's get rolling for stats then! Let's see, rolling for the six stats....

Or there's another spell list?
