Advanced Fighting Fantasy DBR

[damned]

Advanced Fighting Fantasy
This a basic ruleset for the old school Advanced Fighting Fantasy RPG which can be found here: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?keywords=advanced+fighting+fantasy for about $14. You will need the Full Rules or at least the Advanced Fighting Fantasy Quickstart. Its a pretty simple system but it is a lot of fun to play with the right group.

There is no guarantee that this DBR will do everything you want or expect it to, that the DBR will be error free, that I will continue to support the DBR etc. Over time I may find I have more or less time or willingness to work on this DBR. It is what it is.

Commercial Ruleset
There is a commercial Advanced Fighting Fantasy ruleset that is being coded by another developer. If you like the Fighting Fantasy RPG then I encourage you to also buy that ruleset when it becomes available.

Fast Start
Here is a quick overview on how to use the ruleset: https://youtu.be/M-eOrDQZy4o You should watch the video to understand how to use the ruleset.

Things to Note
This is a FGU only ruleset. It uses some features that are only available in FGU.
I think every Character and NPC sheet function except for the up/down arrows is double click rather than single click.
Skill rolls, Luck Rolls, Magic rolls, Attack Rolls, Damage Rolls, using Skills, using Equipment, Potions, Rests etc are all Double Click. Same goes for the actions on the Combat Tracker.

Nice work as ever @damned

[Trenloe]

Yes, very nice work.

[Santyagoffg]

Great job. But I have small problem. Attack skills are not active. I can not make attacks despite I try it from CT or directly from PC or NPC chart. Dices just not rolled.

It’s possible that some changes to CoreRPG may have broken this module since its release, and considering a commercial ruleset has been released this version may not be getting updated.

[damned]

The ruleset is maintained and I cant replicate your issue without more info.
I have just loaded up my test campaign and connected a player instance and tested GM and Player side actions.

Thank you Santyagoffg

I have updated the ruleset - Im not sure why it wasnt working but anyway if you update now it should test ok.
I havent used this ruleset in some time so if you find other bugs please do report them.

[Santyagoffg]

I tested DBRAFF on FGU and FGC and problem is occurred on both platforms.
I can't find any update of your ruleset.

[Trenloe]

I can't find any update of your ruleset.
In the forge here: https://forge.fantasygrounds.com/shop/items/258/view

[damned]

This is an FGU only ruleset - and yes - find it in the Forge.

[Santyagoffg]

Thank you for your efforts but nothing changed. I am really sad, because DBRAFF seems to be potentially much more user friendly that commercial one.

[Santyagoffg]

I removed manually older version of DBRAFF from ruleset catalog and it works properly now Thx.

Hiya Damned,

As I've given up on the official AFF item creation ever being fixed, I thought I'd come back to your lovely DBR version. Unfortunately it seems that the NPC creation is currently broken:

Compile Logs (https://www.dropbox.com/s/l5xzcye5jkrp1ua/fgu_logs_20230219.zip?dl=0)

Honestly, I wish Arion Games would have come to you about using this version.

[damned]

Small update to remove error - NPC records wont lock just now Ill fix it when I have some more time (which means not right now).

[sedgetone]

No worries, any effort is appreciated. One other little thing is that both armour and weapons should have a 7+ value box.

[damned]

Hmmm... that will require more than just adding a 7+ box
Currently damage rolls (example) dont look at the ModifierStack so ther is no way to get a 7+ result...
