System for table top Elder Scrolls?


Other RPGs


I'm in the early stages of setting up a table top Elder Scrolls campaign. Setting and plot are non-issues, but I'm a little stuck on a system to use. Considering 3rd ed Gurps, but it's a bit dry. Also looked at Runequest (again probably 3rd ed), but would need to mangle the magic system quite a bit, particularly enchanting and alchemy.

Any thoughts or other suggestions for a system? I specifically do not want a level based, d20 style, system. Something classless and skill based ideally.

Can't help you with the system, but there is a wargame with minis from Mophidius. You may want to check it.

I always felt any of the d100 family games (Basic Roleplaying, Mythras, any earlier edition of Runequest etc) would make for an excellent base for an Elder Scrolls pnp.
