Ruins & Wastelands: After the Cataclysm P20 RPG


Homebrew and House Rules


For the edification of my fellow gamers and post-apocalypse fans:
Here is a free post-apocalyptic RPG designed by myself, with alot of great suggestions and feedback from Urizen, Twin_Agate_Dragons, Auxmaulous, Arakhor, DM4hire, Sketchpad, and several others.

Here it is as a word doc, for those who would like a personal copy that they can edit.

Thanks in advance to all who check it out, playtest it, and post feedback/suggestions/critiques here.


ERRATA (thanks, Evil Genius!): On pg. 84, the last sentence of the section entitled "PSIONIC ITEM CREATION FEATS" should be replaced with: Psionic item creation feats, psionic items, and Psicraft checks are treated as magic item creation feats, magic items, and Spellcraft checks respectively.

Any other errata will be posted here as it is discovered.


ERRATA: On pg. 330, the CHAMELEONIC SURFACE armor gadget provides a circumstance bonus on Stealth checks rather than an unnamed bonus (so it does not stack with the bonus provided by stealth suit armor).


ERRATA: On page 303, under Scope, standard, the second sentence should be: "However, to use a scope a character must spend a move action acquiring his or her target." (Instead of an attack action.)


ERRATA: On pg. 262, the weapon gadget "Compact" adds 300 powns to the price (150 powns to the crafting cost) of a weapon.

On pg. 263, the weapon gadget "Miniaturized" adds 600 powns to the price (300 powns to the crafting cost) of a weapon.


ERRATA: On pg.267, equipment gadget Compact adds 150 powns to price (75 to crafting cost), and Miniaturized adds 300 powns to price (150 to crafting costs). Both should have the following restriction: "cannot be applied to bags, boxes, or other storage containers". (Seems obvious, but somehow I overlooked it at the time.)


Looks nice. Sorta like Rifts. 'Congrats.


Very nice write up.

I'm currently running a hybrid Pathfinder Edition/d20 Modern Rifts game, and so far I've found quite a selection of things I can yoink for my game in this doc. Great job.

Thanks, Michael. I appreciate it.

Thanks, Yucale! :)

Though I'm aware of the basic premise, I've never played or even had the opportunity to read through the Rifts material, but it seems to be pretty popular.

Glad to know my work will be useful to your game, wasatchdan! :)

Thanks for checking it out!
