  What happens with the red hexes defining the border?

• 
  @RedRaggedFiend7 күн бұрын

  If I need to detail a red border hex I roll a d6, counting clockwise from the NE, and duplicate the terrain from one of the neighboring hexes!

  I'm really interested to hear what the system is about since it's clear you have put a lot of effort into it. Do you have a summarized version of this somewhere? A TLDR version or edited down version to just the main points?

• 
  @RedRaggedFiend25 күн бұрын

  Oof, it's not terribly complex but it is... detailed. Summarizing is a bit difficult. Essentially the world is 30x60 of 360 nmi wide hexes, built of 60nmi wide hexes, each built of 10nmi hexes, built of 2nmi hexes. For more specific details I would suggest checking out the table of contents for my blog series on the subject! www.redraggedfiend.com/worldbuilding-process-posts/

  Hey Fiend, great video! Definitely using this system for mapping my next campaign. You briefly mentioned that you run travel rules differently with this kind of mapping. Do you have a video or blog where you go into more detail on how you run travel? Thanks in advance!

• 
  @RedRaggedFiendАй бұрын

  Thanks! I should definitely make a dedicated video on my exploration/hex crawling system. If you want to see the system in action, check out my Solo D&D series, there's a playlist on my channel page. The basic mechanic is at the start of each day the PC(s) make a Constitution save (or similar roll for your rules system of choice). This roll is modified using the Advantage/Disadvantage idea based on weather, mounts, vehicles, etc. and tells you how much "effort" they can put into travel before they start getting fatigued. Each hex they move through add 1d4 to a running total (hexes have possible random encounters, points of interest, etc. to discover). Once the running total meets/exceeds the Con Sv, traveling additional hexes call for a new Con Sv against a DC equal to the running total. If they fail, they gain a level of exhaustion with all the associated detriments. Exhaustion can be recovered by extended rest, "Camp Days". Maybe that sounds complicated but I much prefer it to constantly referencing weather and terrain pace charts for every hex traversed. Some days you travel far, some days it feels like you barely make any progress.

  Is there a way to import maps from Civ6? It auto-generates new worlds automatically for the largest scale very quickly.

• 
  @RedRaggedFiendАй бұрын

  Good question, I did consider this back when I was developing the system. Civ's hexes, just an FYI, tend to be more theatre than fact for this implementation. Hextml uses HTML to save and load maps. If you could figure out how to translate a Civ hex map into HTML with the correct formatting... it's theoretically possible? If you just want a filled map, you can ask Hextml to generate one at size!

  What do you use to determine the biome you will make a hex and the extent of the biome in neighboring hexes? I have the shape for a map for a home brew game, but biomes and features like rivers, lakes or mountains are hard for me to figure out (i'm new to worldbuilding/dming).

  I noticed your outline, and my question is, do you have a standard setup that tells you what your rolls have to be to beat a specific scenario?

• 
  @RedRaggedFiend4 ай бұрын

  Not exactly, I'm doing three types of non-traditional D&D 5e rolls in this series. 1 - GM oracle, which is a 1d20 equally weighted yes/no and I tweak considering the context of the situation. 2 - 3d6 DC determiner, It's a 2d6 chart with the extra 1d6 added to result. It's a balanced way to come up with random DCs when I'm making ability checks. 3 - Effort rolls, these are long-term things the PC is working towards. Effort is a DC multiplied by a frequency to represent how long it feels it should take to accomplish. Whenever the PC has a chance to work on it (usually downtime) they can roll the ability check. You keep totaling the check results as a sort of progress bar against the effort total. Hope that answers your question!
