Howdy,

How can I create character sheets for an unpublished gaming system? To use among my friends?

This would have a mix of d20 for attack and d100 for skills rolls along with Main and Derived Stats. Can we build things like Stat=int((STR+CON)/2) into the character sheet?

Thank you,

*EB*

Take a look at the CoreRPG, MoreCore or XCorse rulesets. These are all basic rulesets which allow you to customise a lot of things and thus be able to play a number of different games.

No you will need to code your own to be able to do calculations like that.
XCore is very simple to test out and build your rolls but you wont be able to auto-calculate your Stats.

I'm not sure about XCore since it's new enough I haven't had a chance to mess around with it but Morecore could do a roll with both stats included. The roll would just handle whatever parameters are pulled from the stats. Each roll can handle up to 3 of its own parameters as well as 3 reference parameters taken from other stats or rolls. It's a pretty powerful system once you get your head around it. It just won't automatically update the stat shown on the sheet even though the roll itself does.

Edit: That's what I get for making dinner before finishing my post. @Damned swings in and answers. :D
