(DYOCS) Dread's Ye Old Campaign System
« on: April 26, 2011, 03:46:56 PM »

This is a project I've had through two versions of the BT forums now, so I figured I might as well port it over here as an offering. This started out as a tweaked version of the Chaos Campaign/Warchest system (which I love). After TacOps, more Warchest books, and StratOps came out, it went through several more versions until it finally settled on this. I'll quote the most recent post from the forums below, and the files are attached. Enjoy, or don't. Whatever.  ;D

Okay, it's officially titled DYOCS (Dread's Ye Old Campaign System) from here on out. It's all piratey!  ;)

Updated version is attached below. I'm still working on an Excel workbook for tracking units, that should be a couple of days. I get real motivated (or find somebody who has a brain for databases) I'll try to work up some kind of fully automated thing, but no breath-holding on that.

So, a day early. Let the questions and corrections begin!  ;D

Regarding older versions (including the "Complex" version posted above), I'll keep it listed up there (and a copy of the file). I had requests for a more complex version on the old forums, something that would incorporate StratOps material/rules. So, it's out there. However, personal preference is that it is too complicated to really take advantage of the Warchest system. So, I scaled back a number of things for this version, and that's likely the path I'm following going forward. That means, don't expect continued support for a more complicated version. I prefer to avoid AccounTech, and I've already seen too much Excel.  :)

"In turn they tested each Clan namesake
in trial against the Ice Hellion's mettle.
Each chased the Ice Hellion, hunting it down.
All failed to match the predator's speed and grace.
Khan Cage smiled and said, "And that is how we shall be."
