Selected Option:

Mythras Imperative is a complete, open, ORC-licensed d100 game system that offers thrilling adventures in multiple genres. Based on percentile dice and a variety of skills tailored to the character's culture and profession (rather than classes or levels), game play is simple and intuitive to understand and resolve, and highly flexible.

Mythras Imperative features comprehensive character creation, innovative combat rules, mechanics for magic, superpowers, and even vehicles ranging from chariots or steam-cars to anti-grav bikes and star cruisers. Included are sample creatures and foes, along with the unique traits they possess to make them dangerous and worthy opponents.

So whether you want gritty fantasy or mythic historical, Pulp-era spies or cinematic superheroes, Mythras Imperative has you covered. Simple to learn, simple to play, but with a surprising depth that is the result of many, many years of refinement.

And, best of all, as Mythras Imperative is licensed under ORC, you can freely use these rules to create your own games and supplements for publication, taking them as whole cloth as a base, or even combining them with other ORC-licensed content.

Welcome to the countless worlds of Mythras Imperative! May all your dice rolls Crit!

The document references a Deepening and Widening Passions Table on p.15 but doesn't include such a table.

Larger file, lower file size, clean-looking, new ORC License, and no mentions of Strike Rank. Nice!

I love Mythras Imperative!!! However, the optimization on the file is terrible. I can get the previous larger file to less than 3mb without all the visual degradation in your version. Be that as it may, there are still a bunch of references to Strike Rank in the PDF file I am being served (2 on page 22, and one on page 28). What's up with that?

I agree. The cover is heavily pixelated.

The file size just got x6 bigger with the latest update. Could you please re-upload it with a more reasonable size for a ~40 page document?
Thanks!

I came here to ask for the same thing - 113 MB for a pdf with 40 pages and very little illustrations is way too much.

On the credits/copyright page, the words "Mythras" and "Mythras Imperative" don't display in the line just below the ISBN code:

p. 34 of the Third Edition, "Elemental Control." The paragraph ends with "Eclipse’s powers provide examples of this ability."

I have both the Lankmar and Hawkmoon supplements from a previous edition of Runequest. Are these new "basic rules" in some way compatible with the older system?

With some tweaking, yes. Both Lankhmar and Hawkmoon were released using Mongoose's first version of RuneQuest, and Mythras has some similarities to it. There's probably an 80%+ compatibility level.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
