Editing Gladius et Aegis (section)

=Introduction=

'''Gladius Et Aegis''' is an RPG system designed for my own homebrew campaign setting, but is designed to be flexible enough to support other game settings of similar style. It is a dice-based system, but relies very much on loose and fast rules, with a lot of room in the mechanics for rules improvisation and adaptation. As such, its not a game that suits the "powergamer" mindset, as it'd be easy to "break", but is instead designed as a framework that enables stories to be told in a certain style.

The game designer (that's me, "Asklepios") is under no illusions that this is a radically new way of playing games, or that this is a "super generic" system that will replace every other game system you use. However, it has certain design goals in mind, and hopefully facilitates those goals well!

Players and GMs who are a fan of the Worlds of Darkness games, or the Dresden Files rpg, or any other modern dark fantasy setting might find something they like in this system, and will hopefully find that it provides a slightly more freeform approach than the published rulesets of those rpgs.
