Hi y’all, I was interested in running a Buffy style Urban Fantasy game, I had a look through some of the more obvious and popular choices like the Buffy RPG and the World of Darkness and Curseborne options, as well as the Powered by the Apocalypse games like Monster of the Week.

My problem with those tho is that they’re all rules lite, and I prefer a bit more structure to my games, can anyone offer any recommendations? cos otherwise I was thinking about homebrewing over the Dark Heresy rules.

Thanks in advance!

    You’re welcome. Glad my suggestion was helpful.

    And to answer your question, yes, it is that crunchy. But, once you get familiar with the system, it becomes intuitive. Because at it’s core, the system strips things down to two core components of combat, damage and defense, and then allows you to modify them to fit your character concept within the points your GM has set for the campaign.

    So, once you get familiar with the modifiers, things go much faster and easier.
