And thus… the existance of this community is now officially worthwhile. ;)
BTW, There’s also a Traveller-specific community: (!Traveller@ttrpg.network)
Traveller is one of the oldest RPGs out there. And here’s just the video that explains how to use it:
Ah. Sorry, the 2d10 seems to be out of stock:

Paizo has some:

And yes, there should be a d10 inside another d10 somewhere around there.
Yeah. Very well summarized.
Perhaps I’d also add that the advancement is earned with blood and sweat. 😅
I suppose YMMV, but to me it’s central. You see, the Hunter becomes a hunter because she heard a higher calling, and believing in it is what keeps it going.
You can rename Conviction to Faith, and it probably shows what I’m hinting at. That faith can get you out of trouble (supernaturally so) but it’s also precious. You’re still human, flimsy and prone to errors, susceptible to doubt.
And you’re way out of your league. All the time.
In oWoD’s Hunter: The Reckoning, you can’t advance your Edges (supernatural abilities) with XP.
To do so, you have to gamble Conviction during the session, while using said Edges (those Conviction points gambled add dice to your pool, ideally improving your odds).
If you succeed at the task, you gain Virtues (with which you can later buy points in Edges).
if you fail the task, you lose Conviction points. If you run out of Conviction, you lose your ability to use Edges at all until you rest/meditate/recover for a full week.
Not sure if it qualifies as “conceptual” or non-mechanical to you. But I love it.

Anyway, Quantum does ring a bell, but Quantum Dark didn’t.
Edit: turns out I do own the base Quantum PDF. That’s why it rung a bell, I guess.
roflo1@ttrpg.networkMto Sci-Fi RPGs@ttrpg.network•Quantum Dark and other titles at cosmic horror saleEnglish2·20 days agoHadn’t heard of this one.
I don’t think you meant something like this, but I couldn’t not do it 🙃:

roflo1@ttrpg.networkOPMto Sci-Fi RPGs@ttrpg.network•Bundle: Modern Age + The ExpanseEnglish3·1 month agoAh, I assume you missed it. Last month’s Humble Bundle did include Cyberpunk Red.

It was kinda pricey, though.
Right! Thanks.

Gave it a quick glance… apparently it doesn’t “break character” absolutely anywhere.
I guess only Dyson and Schley are widely known. But do check them out.
In general? Randy Musseau, Dyson Logos, Mike Schley, Eneko Menika, and Guillaume Tavernier.
But I also lurk in mapmaking communities and gawk at all kinds of maps.
Thanks! That’s the first time I tried something like that.
Of course, I saw it elsewhere and then tried to replicate it.
Same thing happened to me when I discovered it.
You probably figured it out already, but in case you didn’t: the video I posted before is part of a playlist, and it’s an excellent way to get acquainted with the game.
