An unofficial community implementation of the Zweihänder Grim & Perilous RPG game for FoundryVTT.
Installation
To install the Zweihänder Grim & Perilous RPG system for FoundryVTT, simply paste the following URL into the Install System dialog on the Game Systems menu of the application: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fh-fvtt/zweihander/main/system.json.
If you wish to install the latest development version of the system, use the following URL instead: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fh-fvtt/zweihander/dev/system.json. You will receive the latest, bleeding edge features, but the risk of bugs and unintended behavior is much higher. A world backup is highly recommended!
Notable Features
- Automation. The game system takes care of the most boring parts of the rules for you (cumbersome calculations especially!), so you and your group can focus on the narrative at hand without getting bogged down.
- Drag & Drop. Writing things down? Ain't nobody got time for that! Speed up character creation, Tier advancement and more by simply dragging and dropping things on your character sheet!
- Fortune Tracker. Easily track the expenditure of Fortune & Misfortune with this nifty little tracker! Supports both one-way and ebb-and-flow variants. Requires the socketlib module to be installed and active.
- Compendium. A vast archive of Professions, Spells, Weapons and more, straight from the book!
- Homebrew. Fancy yourself creative? Well, good, because this game system was built from the ground-up thinking about homebrew support! Adding new Professions, Spells, Trappings or whatever else your mind comes up with is super easy!
- Much, much more...
Everything you need to play grim characters in a perilous world!
Module Support
"Yeah, that's all great, but does X module work with this system?" Great question! Zweihänder Grim & Perilous RPG supports many of the more popular system-agnostic modules that the FoundryVTT community has to offer, among them Dice So Nice!, Health Estimate, Polyglot and GM Screen. If you find a specific system-agnostic module not working, feel free to reach out to the developers and we'll look into it!
Roadmap & Community Feedback
Although Zweihänder Grim & Perilous RPG implements all core functionalities required for running a game, we're still working hard to improve its usability by adding further automations and Quality of Life features, such as:
- Active Effects. Buffs, debuffs and conditional effects.
- Combat Tracker Overhaul. Track your remaining Action Points and your Peril and Damage Condition Tracks.
- Wilderness Travel & Chase Scene Trackers. Speed up gameplay with these handy applications!
- Themes. Support for custom color schemes for the system.
The above list is incomplete and prone to change. While the primary driver for development is our own use of the system, we also acknowledge that community feedback is very valuable. As such, if you'd like us to develop a new feature, feel free to start a new discussion. Otherwise, if something isn't working like it should, you can file a new bug report. Please take the time to read the template prompts and give as much contextual information as possible.
