So /tg/ I was wondering is there a system which lets players be rulers of whole kingdoms with the GM making up events that affect the players' domains.
I think I could play some nice games with such a system but frankly I've never heard of it.
>>47881836
there are some books for pathfinder/dnd about making kingdoms. they have rules for making buildings and collecting taxes and stuff like that.
i forget the name fo the book tho
>>47881836
Nope because you are imagining both rpg and strategy wrong.
check the computer game called imperia to see how this would be
>>47881836
Isn't this literally Birthright?
Birthright campaign setting for AD&D 2nd Ed.
Adventurer, Conqueror, King by Autarch.

Yes the OP is probally 16 years old. I'm 36 and grew up playing 2nd Ed AD&D I swear tg/ makes me feel like a elderly grog with some of the youthful ignorance here.
Reign

I've got a Mongoose Runequest splat with stuff like building costs and staff pay for running your own estate, hp for buildings and ships and damage for siege weapons.
It clicks onto the main system pretty nicely, seems broadly applicable to BRP based games as a whole, modular like.
Picked it up on the cheap off Amazon second hand.

I'm twelve and what is AD&D? Is it like D&D but more fast paced and sporadic?
>>47882417
Im 12, and this sounds like something pervy uncle Steve plays on Wednesday night.
>>47882417
>>47882476
No, he plays that high intensity, ultra realistic murder simulator, FATAL.

B-but puns are for funs.
>>47882542
Just say no to butt puns.
ACKS.
Reign.
Birthright a shit.
>>47883912
This. Also An Echo Resounding for more OSR stuff, and straight up Kingdom for storygame fun times.
>>47882158
I'm only 28 and I feel the same way thanks to starting on 2nd Ed when I was eleven or something....

JRPG about exploring the Dungeonverse to stabilize the shifting corridors into a livable nation.
>>47881836
Have you tried D&D?
>>47881836
>>47881871
Pathfinder's Kingmaker.
>>47884864
It's really not that good for this.
People will recommend Pathfinder's Kingmaker, but it's actually pretty bad in play.
The way shit goes down as you get far in makes me think it's praise is from people who just used it as a starting point and either didn't finish it, or simply abandoned it and went with their own thing (which is perfectly fine, and even preferable).
>>47884864
This is a good post
I think I'll make a point of occasionally copying it in the future
>>47884804
This seems charming as fuck.
Any more material for it, or is this as much as exists?

Here's a run down on everything. Plus some art from the book.

Grancrest. Run a country, smack down monsters, pretty straight forward and effective mass combat rules on top of it.
>>47881836
For just that try The Quiet Year.
For that in the background of a normal game the Reign Company Rules are your best friend.
>>47881836
Reign was made for exactly that.
OP here thanks for the suggestions guys I'll look into them all.
I tried googling this shit but I couldn't find anything also I'm pretty new to pnp rpgs so I don't know many systems either, everything I donknow I got from here.

If it helps at all:
Make Your Kingdom / Meikyuu Kingdom and Grancrest have a similar core premise, which is carving out an area of stability in a world of literal chaos.
Make Your Kingdom is on the sillier side of the seriousness scale, with some joke monsters, a maid class and a 'Fat' status effect. It can still do life threatening danger, but leans towards lighter, dungeon delving adventures.
Grancrest is on the grimmer side of the scale, akin to Warhammer Fantasy in places, as magic in the setting taps into the 'chaos' that is clawing at reality and there's a greater chance of there being a geo-political clusterfuck or eight at any given moment. It's not grim dark, though, since there's hope of driving back the chaos and the PCs can actually make a meaningful impact on the world, instead of just stalling the inevitable.
I don't know shit about Runequest or Reign, so I can't comment on those.

ASOIAF
Does anyone have the original book for Make Your Kingdom / Meikyuu Kingdom?
I need art.
>>47892414
Best I can offer is anon's link over in >>47887353
Seems to have a fair bit of the art among the rest.
