Role Playing Systems

Montana Role-Playing Calendar

A game system (or rule-set) is a collection of rules, supplements, and alterations used to determine how the behavior of the characters can be interpreted, and sometimes what kind of actions a character can make. Some game systems will also dictate the setting or world that the game play occurs in, while other systems are setting independent.

There are currently 27 game systems defined in the calendar.
