Wisdom from the Wastelands 02: Monsters That Improve with Age
Like a fine wine¸ some monsters improve with age¸ and it is to them that this second thematic issue of Wisdom from the Wastelands is devoted! An age chart can be a wonderful tool for Game Masters who want to scale monster encounters so that they are commensurate with the powers and artifacts possessed by the player characters. A chart of this sort is made up of three columns¸ one each for the age of a creature¸ its hit dice¸ and notes. Notes include damage¸ mutations¸ drawbacks¸ and anything else that affects the creature in or out of combat.
This publication is dedicated to providing useful information¸ game content¸ and ideas to players of modern¸ science fiction¸ and post-apocalyptic table-top and role-playing games in general and to fans of Goblinoid Games' Mutant Future RPG in particular. The rules contained herein are compatible with it and any others that use the "Basic" system introduced in the most popular role-playing games of the early 1970s and are easily adaptable to many other games (especially successor systems¸ to include those covered by the Open Game License).
Our goal is to release a new thematic issue of this publication just about every week and to have it contain a variety of useful and earnest information that will inspire Game Masters and players alike and provide them with things that they can immediately plug into their games. We very much hope you will find this and subsequent issues of the Wisdom from the Wastelands to be useful and enjoyable!
