Game Design Fanatic: Hero System 6th Edition – Key Changes
http://gamedesignfanatic.blogspot.com/2010/10/hero-system-6th-edition-key-changes.html
A blog for game analysis, looking for game balance and better game design. Friday, October 8, 2010. Hero System 6th Edition – Key Changes. Last article I described the major changes in Hero System 6th edition, changes that were general in nature. This article I'm describing changes which are specific, but which are likely to affect many characters or come into play in many adventures, or otherwise are pretty likely to be noticed. Key changes I feel improve the game:. 5th Edition merged Public/Secret ID i...
Game Design Fanatic: September 2010
http://gamedesignfanatic.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
A blog for game analysis, looking for game balance and better game design. Monday, September 13, 2010. Analyzing Hero System 6th Edition – Major Changes. I've been hard at work reading and analyzing the rules for 6. Edition Hero System. I've played Champions for a long time, and it has traditionally been what I consider to be my favorite roleplaying game, though I haven't played it a whole lot recently. I remember how pleased I was with the 4. Edition rules. Now the 6. Edition Hero System, with maybe a f...
Game Design Fanatic: Examination of the ICONS RPG
http://gamedesignfanatic.blogspot.com/2011/01/examination-of-icons-rpg.html
A blog for game analysis, looking for game balance and better game design. Wednesday, January 5, 2011. Examination of the ICONS RPG. Today I’m evaluating the ICONS RPG, a superhero RPG that is based on the FATE RPG system. However, I should note that while there were certain aspects of Marvel Superheroes I thought were pretty cool, even when it first came out I was never too impressed by the way it played; I found it clunky and primitive compared to Champions. So being amused by the parallels doesn&#...
Game Design Fanatic: April 2010
http://gamedesignfanatic.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
A blog for game analysis, looking for game balance and better game design. Monday, April 19, 2010. An additional interesting concept is that for strikers, and some defenders, they came up with the idea of tying certain class features to class powers, so that hybrid strikers can only use their primary "striker ability" to pump up the powers derived from that striker class. Here are a list of things I thought were pretty cool about the hybrid classes:. 4 Tying class features to powers seems very entertaini...
Game Design Fanatic: July 2010
http://gamedesignfanatic.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
A blog for game analysis, looking for game balance and better game design. Sunday, July 18, 2010. D&D4 Updates Overview – Specific Powers. The main power of the Battlerager fighter class was changed totally. I certainly felt that the class was overpowered when I first saw it. But the change notes mentioned the problem was worse than I had realized – that because the class had a sort of shield to reduce damage, they were practically immune to minions. Various monsters were adjusted. A number of monste...

The Trouble with Trias: a Malfunction at the Intersection of Craft and Reward Mechanics. On June 23rd, 2011. In the comments to my last post. It’s a straightforward area majority game in the mold of El Grande. Trias isn’t the only game that suffers from a dominant strategy, but it’s one of the few where the problem resides almost entirely in the scoring mechanics. As such, it makes an excellent case study in the craft of reward mechanic design. Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window). Not sure if...

I need to point out a few typos and vague wordings to him, but in the meantime I want to encourage him and help spread the word by posting an example character. Nothing breathtakingly original, but he’s got a bit of punch, and it’ll give you all some idea of what a Mythender is all about. Read the rest of this entry ».

Jun 29, 2015. This is going to be the last post to this blog. I feel like the journey that I began with it is complete. I'm not stopping game design, but I will spend less time on it than before and want to write about diverse topics (including still some game design).
