I'm not sure this is the best place to post this, but it seems the most appropriate. Hello everyone! I was unsure of the best way to go about this, so I registered for the forums and thought it might be best if I just make a thread about this. I played FFXI from launch till about 2008, around that time I did a very loose conversion of Final Fantasy XI for tabletop roleplaying. Most of the systems worked, but it wasn't very good and certainly wasn't a complete system. I'm now a game designer by profession and do a lot of odd jobs in the industry. As of this week, I've started a new version of my system with a number of improvements to design. I'm having a lot of fun working on this again. There are several concessions made for tabletop play, but most things in the fan-created databases, such as items, work out of the box in Final Fantasy XI: Tabletop. However, I had forgotten that the fan database sites still lack hard data when it comes to enemies and monsters. It occurred to me that anyone running a private server would have presumably access to this data, and that I should contact them in order to see if they'd be willing to help me. I'd only need data from up to RotZ in order to get started (But any additional data beyond that would be very helpful in future additions to this book). So far, I'm spending my time making the rulebook like nice and easy to read and use. My email is attached to my profile as well, so if an admin would like to speak to me that way, it's available. I've included a sample of the first few pages of the book: http://imgur.com/a/6kTWO Thank you for your time and consideration. -Ouren https://twitter.com/Ouren |

As a fan of DnD, Pathfinder, and other tabletop RPG's: I respect and admire what you're trying to do here! I wish you the best of luck. When it comes time to playtest, I'd definitely be willing to help out! |

Never played a tabletop RPG but and am an avid board game player and see a lot of crossover in other players and have always had a passing attraction to it (sadly, lack creativity for such an endeavor, lol). Very cool to hear about this and the sample pages are BEAUTIFUL. I'd love a copy when it's done. I've got a few friends that used to play XI with me that might actually be interested in trying this out together (though I can't get them to actually come back to XI :/ ). |
