Description
Burning Wheel is an award-winning fantasy roleplaying game in which players take on the roles of vibrant, dynamic characters whose very beliefs propel the story forward.
Starting with a simple D6 dice pool mechanic, this game intuitively builds on its core concepts. The rules detail dramatic systems for task resolution, advancement, trials of belief, tests of nerve, searing social conflict, dangerous sorcery, miraculous faith, and brutal, gut-wrenching martial combat. Behind the dice, your decisions drive the game's systems. Their choices tangibly affect every outcome-from glorious victory to ignominious defeat. But there are consequences to every decision, ramifications to every action. The choices you make close off one path, while opening another. This philosophy underpins the character creation system for Burning Wheel. And it's not just a matter of pushing a point here, or nudging a number there: As soon as a player decides to make a character in Burning Wheel, he is confronted with decisions about the character's past, ethics, beliefs, scars, goals and dreams. Questions whose answers affect not only the player's character, but the shape of the story as a whole.
Burning Wheel is presented in an easy-to-read writing style, with plenty of insight and advice from the designer. If you're not careful, Burning Wheel will change the way you play roleplaying games.
The Gold Edition combines both the Revised Edition's Burning Wheel and Character Burner. It has been reorganized for clarity and updated by the author.

Burning Wheel | |
Probablement le jeu de role le plus complet a avoir été créé, Burning wheel est aussi très complexe. La création de personnage et la facon de le faire évoluer est selon moi révolutionnaire. Ca demande un bon investissement en temps et c'est surement pas pour tous les types de joueurs mais j'ai jamais trouvé un jeu de role qui a autant de profondeur. |

Vraiment détaillé comme règles! | |
Burning Wheel est un système à base de dés D6. Vous roulez un nombre de dés à six faces égal à votre nombre dans la compétence, et essayez de rouler un nombre de succès égal au nombre d’obstacles, ou "Ob". Si vous réussissez vous obtenez l’intention que vous avez initialement déclarée, carte blanche si vous échouez, cependant, le GM obtient à la place de salir avec votre intention originale tout en s’assurant que l’intrigue va toujours de l’avant. Example: vous n’avez pas réussi à faire tomber cette porte ? Oh, vous obtenez la porte vers le bas, mais vous attirez l’attention de votre rival détesté, qui vous a suivi tout le temps. Ou les gardes. Ou ton père, qui possède l’établissement. Bref... ceci est seulement une petit parti du jeu... les règles sont "deep" et très détaillé. |
