This would seem pretty achievable. You have one stat (Leadership Potential) that I guess would get turned off for a mutant, and would need to get switched off if a Human acquired a mutation.

Every time I sit down with the Authoring Kit and decide to try something, I always hit the same mind-block: what good is this if I can't use the text for the various skills. Do you think Jim would support including the full mutation texts? If so, I may take a stab at this.

A danger with very simple rules, like the 30 page MA1e, is that they tend to get heavily houseruled, so you can't really build in much in the way of character generation constraints; it will probably devolve to just a database of your stats.
 
I'd put a vote in for Fate (and it's add-ons, like Dresden Files) as well. I'm really starting to get into it, and would like to have a decent character tracker.
 
I'll throw my lot in with all you folks asking for FATE as I have both Spirit of the Century and Dresden and am a backer of the new Core Rules Kickstarter.

However, what I would love to see is the Iron Kingdoms Roleplaying Game in Hero Lab.
 
Fate Update?

Hi all,

I've read the update from LWD regarding the upcoming Fate expansion. Can any details be given yet or is this waiting on the release of the Fate Core book?

I'd also like to add my vote for support for The Dresden Files Roleplaying Game as well as support for the other versions of Fate like Starblazer Adventures, Strands of Fate, Bulldogs, Diaspora, Spirit of the Century, and the list goes on and on. :-)

Thanks
 
My Games

I would like support of Palladium and the d20 system files to build my own d20 games. It would also be awesome if Hero Lab would support BESM or BESM d20 complete with the mecha book stuff. Awesome. Any chance of Hero Lab getting anime d20? PLEASE!!!:p
 
Is there any plan to maybe take the White Wolf system already in Hero Labs and Exaltify it?
I'd buy the Exalted addon as soon as it came out!
You guys need any design help?
 
My vote is for Eclipse Phase. A fantastic game, but character creation is almost as complex as (and in some ways more so than) Shadowrun 4e.

If you're doing Spirit of the Century, then I'd like to see support for Dresden Files and other Fate games.

I also enjoy Iron Kingdoms RPG, however, I find character creation for that game fairly simple, and would much rather see support for complex systems like Hero System, Shadowrun, Eclipse Phase, Harnmaster (a guy can dream) and so on.
 
There's been some talk on Facebook about wanting to see HeroLab support Hollow Earth Expeditions. I think it'd be sweet and wish I had the know-how to make a data-set for it. One of the best Pulp games out there. :)

Another vote (since I only get one each) for BESM, though I'd go so far as to ask for all the flavors. It might be tricky working out the legalities, though, as Guardians of Order is now defunct, and I've not seen anything to indicate that White Wolf is maintaining anything from their ArtHaus imprint (where the pub rights went, as I understand it) whatsoever, so it's anyone's guess as to who can say yes... Still, it would certainly be nice to have datasets for at least BESM 3E.

I've been using hero lab for a while now and I think it's the bees knees. While there are a few glitches that I know are being worked on it is a great product. However, I'd like to see if lone wolf has considered adding BESM d20 to the list. I've played it before and was a decent game. If I'd vote on anything, that'd be my pick. Wishful thinking I know. :3
