Mechanics of Castles & Crusades - Castle Zagyg: The Free Town of Yggsburgh - The Storehouse District

  • Storytelling - The players and the Game Master (GM) collaborate to create a rich and immersive narrative. The GM describes the environment, non-player characters and events, while the players react and influence the story through the actions of their characters. The continuous interaction between the DM's descriptions and the players' decisions forms the progressive essence of the story.
  • Paper and pen - Players use pen and paper to write down important details during the game. This includes writing down information about the character, inventory, life points, skills acquired and any relevant details of the campaign or interactions that could influence future decisions. This mechanic allows for practical organization and easy access to the information needed during the game.
  • Data Scrolling - Dice are used to introduce an element of luck and determine the outcome of various actions, such as attacks, skill tests or resistances. Different types of dice (such as d20, d12, d10, d8, d6, and d4) are used to simulate various situations. The results of the rolls are then modified by appropriate bonuses according to the rules of the game to decide the success or failure of the actions.
  • RPG - Castles & Crusades emphasizes role-playing, where players immerse themselves in their characters, acting according to their personalities, motivations and histories. This not only enriches the experience, but also influences how the characters interact with the setting and with each other, promoting organic developments in the narrative.
