The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game)	comment	The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Polish WiedÅºmin: Gra WyobraÅºni) is a Polish Tabletop RPG set in the Witcher universe and released in 2001.During the late 90's, there was some real hype around The Witcher in Poland. The last part of the saga was released and the author had a deal for a TV series and a film. In addition, there was a small project to create a tabletop RPG game based on the saga. The tabletop game was the only one of the three to find success.There was no real competition for the game on the Polish market during that time, as it was the first Polish system to combine a few key elements: it was based on an established media property, it had its own unique mechanics, it had a fantasy setting, and it was helped by hype (as it was faithful to the source material). Its rules and mechanics are also extremely simple and user-friendly, at least when compared with everything else on the contemporary Polish market - it's entirely possible to explain them to a layman in five minutes.The mechanics are based on d6 and derived from it d3 and d2. There are nine stats divided into two sections: six physical (Constitution, Movement, Strength, Perception, Dexterity, and Agility) and three more or less mental (Intellect, Will and Savoir-vivre, the last being a combination of generic Charisma and overall presentation). Each statistic (except Movement) has certain skills attached to it, like Alchemy and Economics being listed under Intellect or Acrobatics being listed under Agility. Both stats and skills range from 1 to 5 (skills can also be at 0). The higher the stat, the more d6 you use, e.g. 3 Strength means you grab 3d6 for rolls based on it.All tests go by the same rule - certain actions have either a set difficulty or a difficulty which is derived from certain parameters. The difficulty ranges from 0 ("no sweat") to 9 ("heroic deed"). Skills lower the difficulty by themselves, e.g. the difficulty of opening a basic lock is 4 and if your character has Cracking at 3 the final difficulty is 1. Then you take the amount of d6 equal to your tested stat (so in case of mentioned Cracking you take d6 equal to your Dexterity) and you must roll a number of successes equal or higher to the difficulty. Success is any outcome higher than 3 on any given dice. This makes for the unintended effect of having high stats matter less - while a high stat makes a success more likely, the higher-difficulty actions scale together with stats or even faster.There are also Fate Dice involved in success tests. If your stat is 1, you only use one Fate Die. Any higher amount adds additional dice. Fate Dice are used as a critical success and failure meter, with 1 being a critical failure and 6 working as a critical success.Certain stats are calculated into sub-stats, like Constitution determining Hit Points, or Strength how much your character can actually carry.These simplistic mechanics, while often criticized by D&D players, were intentional. As the title implies, it is a game of imagination, putting heavy emphasis on story-telling and pure fun, while both the sourcebooks and later additions heavily discourage using mechanics as the sole way of controlling and judging players actions. Also, the GM is called the "story-teller" (bajarz in Polish), to put further emphasis on story instead of dice rolls.And even in combat, the mechanics are still dynamic and fast-paced. Aside from regular attacks, players can use called attacks targeting certain body parts (with increased difficulty) or use special combat maneuvers... if the character knows any. It also happens to be one of the few tabletop RPGs, where even a small skill increase makes your character very visibly stronger in said field, as higher skills means lower difficulty and thus more successes during throws, which can lead to (much) higher damage, lower mana use, or automatic successes in trivial tasks.There are no levels, so the game is basically based on very slow and hard-to-do Stat Grinding. Why is it hard? Thanks to its mechanics, even the strongest character can die after 3 to 4 hits from regular thugs (while being able to kill them in one, which is the trademark of witchers and well-trained rangers), not to mention monsters, powerful magicians and angry mobs. The game designers have taken a lot of pride and pleasure from such balance in fighting mechanics. And to grind your skills and stats you use your Points of Proficiency, which are a mix between Experience Points and Skill Points.There are also no classes nor premade professions, but each race gets certain starting skills (and most of them repeat, since everyone has some basic knowledge about fist fighting or talking) and most of the races have minimal, maximal, or both kinds of caps on their stats, except for humans.The game was first released as a "demo" pocket edition. Being a teaser, it only covers the bare basics of the mechanics and contains a simple example scenario. Then the actual source book arrived, giving detailed descriptions of mechanics, expanded combat maneuvers, a spell and prayers book, massive chapters full of information about the setting, a monster book, and a hefty chapter full of advice for story-tellers. Later, two expansions were released: the first was a description of Nilfgaard and a supplement to the basic rules (covering art of Min-Maxing, new fighting moves, and a new kind of magic based on Psychic Powers), and the second was premade scenario for a Cloak and Dagger campaign with only minor tweaks in the mechanics.After those, a short-lived periodical called "White Wolf" was released. In fact, the whole "periodical" part was a marketing campaign to bring more attention towards the system. "White Wolf" lasted only three issues: one covering dryads and Brokilon, their forest, one about Novigrad, and one about spies, secret agencies, and diplomats. It was never clearly stated if "White Wolf" was canceled because the authors run out of ideas, or because MAG Publishing House, responsible for the whole system, was facing financial problems and was slowly leaving the RPG business. Aside from all those direct expansions, the magazine "Sword and Sorcery" — also owned by MAG — was printing articles even further expanding the game setting, giving handfuls of advice for story-tellers, and providing a few scenarios.There was also a semi-official expansion, which covered the world a century before the Witcher's Saga, as a tie-in to a short story about Geralt's parents. It was intended to be officially published, but after cancellation, it ended up being released for free by its author.Not to be confused with R. Talsorian Games Fuzion RPG, The Witcher Role Playing Game.

In the hands of professionals, the same weapons can kill you on the spot. And that's without even mentioning monsters — they deal enough damage to kill a character even with a mediocre roll.

On top of that, they're a Dying Race suffering the fate of Rome, with humans playing the role of barbarians adapting their culture, or perhaps Celts ran over by the Romans (with Boudicca and all). There is a distinction of "free elves" and "the rest". The free ones are living in the wild on stolen scraps (because farming is beneath their dignity), while the rest stay in their ghettoes or try to integrate with other races.

Since it's a country beyond the known world, there are also no witchers or their equivalent, so monsters tend to be much more numerous. In fact, the mountain passes leading to Zerrikania being so heavily infested by all kinds of monsters is the chief reason why the country is barely known and almost mythical.

Or just hit them so bad they will see stars for next few rounds. It's also perfectly possible to throw a sudden punch during a sword-fight, and due to the way how defences are counted, it will probably connect easier than the sword attack the enemy is expecting and trained to parry.

Players are granted initial skill points divided into two sub-groups: for learning new skills and for increasing skills already known (this also includes combat maneuvers). Each point in Intellect and Will grants 3 skill points for increasing already known skills, but only Intellect grants points for learning skills from a scratch (also 3 per Intellect rank). Thus it's very easy to start with a wide variety of skills, but in the same time hard to increase them beyond starting 1, as for each three new skills, only one of them can be rised to rank 2.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: Whips can be used for very flashy combat maneuvers like tripping over, disarming and strangling, but over such short distances that it's easier to just draw your sword or shoot your enemy from afar. They are close to useless against armoured enemies, most of animals and monsters. Exotic weapons bypass any armour except plate armor, but they also cost a small fortune and have only d6 damage roll, while normal weapons can be customised for the user to deal additional fixed damage and become easier to wield. Two-handed weapons deal 2d6 + twice the Strength of damage, but they require sufficient Strength and many combat maneuvers are restricted for one-handed weapons. It's more practical to use a one-handed weapon and a shield, as this grants protection and the shield may be weaponized. Subverted in the case of mini-crossbows and lamias (whips with metal spikes all over their length). The former deal relatively little damage and have a very short range, but they can be hidden in wide sleeves and shoot two bolts in a single round — right in the face. The latter has the range limitations of other whips, but deals damage like a two-handed weapon. And unlike other whips, it overcomes the problem with close-quarter fights, since the handle is a mace.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_2cb9b1a9	comment	Cool, but Inefficient: Most of the combat maneuvers for ranged weapons and some of the signs used by witchers count. But nothing can compare with One-Hit Kill moves - they use more Combat Points than some characters can even have. For a single attack that could miss or be dodged. Since each dodge attept costs 1 Combat Point, the perk allowing to perform two dodges per round can deplete the entire pool in no time, leaving nothing for maneuvers or even a dodge when it's really needed. Averted in the case of spells. At first glance all of them are ridiculously overpriced, often costing more Arcane Points that it's possible to have, turning spellcasting into a highly inefficient playstyle. But if you carefully read the rules, they also show how high skill and additional successes during hit rolls reduce the intake of Arcane Points to almost nothing, or at least to bearable amounts.

And melee damage gets a fixed bonus from Strength (two-handed weapons get twice the Strength). So with minor investment in Armed combat, archers can be deadly both at a distance and in close quarters. Humans have it especially easy, since they get 5 bonus points to skills during character creation, which can only be used on skills from their Splat. And Armed combat is one of them.

Thanks to their mutations, witchers will still be in their prime well after their 100th birthday, while not even looking half of their age.

They make their wielders harder to hit with any kind of physical attack, add armour and are not penalized by anything. Oh, and you can bash people with them. Polearms and pikes are very good against mounted enemies and deal crapload of damage in general. Feint is one of the most basic combat maneuvers, requiring almost no skills and being very cheap to use (or even spam). All it does is lowering the defense of target's by a single point, making the hit far more likely. Light crossbow, which has all the advantages of bowsnote Mainly - it can be shot each turn and crossbowsnote It rolls damage from a bigger dice pool than any bow, offering bigger minimum damage and a bigger median of rolls. Thanks to better damage potential, it also doesn't require all the extra effort and Min-Maxing bows take to make them truly dangerous, while still getting the obvious benefits if one decides to go for aimed shots and similar, without the disadvantages of either, being the perfect middle ground between both weapon types. It's also the "default" crossbow type in the game, making it easily the most common ranged weapon to encounter, further reinforcing its boring aspect.

All fighting and magic skills provide 2 Combat or Arcane Points for each level of related skill, which is the easiest way to get more of them. And the Points themselves can be used to further enhance your hit rolls. Melee fighting skills not only allow you to hit your enemies with ease, but also makes it harder for them to hit you. With a measly level 3 of Unarmed or Armed combat your character is virtually immune to the attacks of random mooks. With Alchemy at 1 your character knows that ice, steam and water are all the same.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_41d9aaef	comment	Brainwashed: The extent of it and how long it lasts depends on the process used for it: Mages can use Charm and Hypnosis spells. The first one turns its target very friendly towards the caster. The second gives total control over its target. Both can be broken by sudden sound, pain, or strong willpower and can't last for more than an hour. Witchers have the Axii sign, which turns any creature friendly and obedient for a short while. Witchers can also use it on themselves, making them more focused on a given task and lowering the difficulties of actions related to fulfilling it. Axii can be broken by roll of the Concentration skill and lasts for a single turn in the basic version. Naturalised dryads are created by giving normal human girls the Water of Brokilon. The memories of their previous life are erased (some traces may remain) and they think of themselves as dryads. The effect lasts forever and is irreversible. Depending how powerful psychics are and how much they focus, effects may range from a single, simple order to turning someone into a vegetable.

Sodden, the land now held by Cintra, combines thick forest, infamous Miechun's Morasses and Angren Marshes with infestations of all kinds, types and sizes of man-eating monsters. It's not helping that in the past the region was regularly pillaged by Skellige pirates and now often changes ownership, leaving dozens of ruins - perfect nests and burrows for monsters. The place is seen as so dangerous that even witchers don't want to take "jobs" out there. Oh, and south of Cintra is Erlenwald, which pales in comparison to Sodden, but it doesn't need to be protected by law as a royal forest - people simply don't want to poach there by themselves.

Witchers are feared for a reason, but they can die just like anyone else and are covered with countless scars and/or maimed by monsters that were this close to killing them. Still, in most cases their sole presence is enough to scare Mooks away or hold them back without doing more than taking their sword out of the scabbard. Same applies to dryads - they are extremely dangerous, but fully aware that their main advantage is their status of The Dreaded. After all, they are just a handful of young women armed with bows and usually end their lives being hanged by an angry mob or slain by some barely trained mercs. Mages usually don't try doing anything stupid. Even if they can burn the whole town to the ground with a single spell, everyone in the setting is aware that getting trampled by an angry mob is much faster than burning them alive.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_5042eb6e	comment	Multishot: A somewhat controversial combat move introduced in the expansions. It allowed to shoot two arrows at once and hit targets in a grouping with one meter spread. While it was intended as "hit two guys at once", what most players were doing was "shoot both arrows at the same guy" - even after the debuff to damage was applied, the combined damage was usually still somewhere in the the upper 30s, in a game where 26 Vitality is the most common value for a humanoid. While technically not a multishot, a variant of that move is present for thrown weapons, using the exact same mechanics. It's just as devastating, if not more so. It's outright demanded that both projectiles are aimed at the same target and it's very easy to make target play "catch" with own face.

Vigour, the only skill listed under Construction, is almost passive. The only thing it does is lower the difficulty for save throws when the character is dying or taking disabling amounts of damage, so you will be grateful for every point of it when facing real threats. Same applies to Cold Blood, which is only for scary and stressful situations - failing rolls of it will send your character into a state of panic or psychotic fits.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_57d43e40	comment	Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Lots, some retroactively made to Sapkowski's canon. It's actally hard to find something which is not one. Many of them border on Culture Chop Suey. Dwarves even speak in quasi-German gibberish and Gratuitous German. Elves are somewhere between Celts run over by Romans and Romans run over by barbarians, with a few dashes of Native Americans. Kaedven is cross of Kievan Rus' and early-medieval Germany, Settling the Frontier for human civilization. It's more clear in remote areas than in civilized parts (as 2/3 of this huge country is covered with dense forest). Kovir-Poviss is something between Britain and Venice - powerful, yet mostly uninterested with the affairs of other countries, an amalgam of small kingdoms and dutchies, with a powerful fleet and merchant marine. Winter capital is Venice with British Weather. Their main goal is to profit on high-sea trade. Nilfgaard Empire combines both Roman empires with many elements of Nazi Germany. Funnily enough, it's the most liberal country when it comes to race and gender. Novigrad is Hanseatic LÃ¼beck combined with Freestate Amsterdam. And run by strict clergy. Mahakam is industrialized Rhineland inhabited by dwarves, placed under the eponymous mountain chain. Redania is Polishâ€“Lithuanian Commonwealth - numerous and equal nobles hold power, their cavalry is the best in the world, the main source of income is exported grain going through semi-autonomous port city and commoners are treated like private property, while halflings play role of foreign settlers in the Commonwealth. Their king has the vaguely Slavic name of Radowid, and he's the son of Queen Hedwig. Even its coat of arms is very similar to Polish from the times of the Commonwealth, while the book only said it's an eagle on a red shield. Skellige Isles are blatant Horny Vikings, with many references to Norse culture and terminology. Toussaint is late-medieval Provence and Piedmont, only without the sea access. Zerrikania is Scythia, but under matriarchy.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_73d4b01a	comment	In Case You Forgot Who Wrote It: The Witcher: Game of Imagination by Andrzej Sapkowski is the full title of the game. Sapkowski's involvement at best was very limited - the only mention of him is the title and a small note after a page full of credits simply stating "Based on the works of Andrzej Sapkowski". On the other hand, he worked with MAG Publishing House for many years and it should be noted that he's a well-know critisizer of Gamebooks for its lack of real freedom, as well as a supporter of the Wide-Open Sandbox approach to Tabletop RPGs instead of folowing stereotypes and archetypes. (Which the game tried to implement as much as possible in it's rules and pre-existing setting.) Sapkowski did write his own small RPG before, published as Eye of Yrrhedes, with very similar mindset as Game of Imagination and rule-light approach to gameplay, also published by MAGnote It's worth to note that various game elements in Game of Imagination are clearly inspired or even directly carried over from Eye of Yrrhedes, despite the games being build on completely different ruleset and mechanics.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_74828aea	comment	Killer Rabbit: The cockatrice is a turkey-sized mix of lizard and pheasant, looking mostly like the latter. Doesn't sound intimidating? If you aren't careful, it will sneak up on you and peck your kidney or spine with a single strike. One success more than required, and it will reach a vital organ with its peck, dealing an additional 3d6 damage and another d3 from bleeding each round. That's enough to kill or incapacitate a character. To make matters worse, it has enough Sneaking skill to easily ambush your character, lowering defences to almost nothing and thus making it even easier to strike a killing blow. Echinopses are almost like porcupines. The only difference is that they can shoot a few of their spines for a very short distance. If those spines hit anything, they break and migrate deeper. It's not only painful, but also requires an operation or magic healing to remove them. Untreated, they'll eventually kill your character.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_7c46c734	comment	Common Tongue: Subverted. While there is a language called "Common", it's simply a language that humans use and not even all of them - people from Skellige use their own dialect, while Nilfgaardians and Zerrikanians use different variants of Elder Speech, language of the elves. Elder Speech itself is used in a few different forms that have as much relation to each other as Romance languages have with Latin. The starting level of any language skill is usually 2 (in 0-5 scale), which means that even if characters use the language as their own, it's the local version and nothing more. It won't cover pronunciation from other countries and regions, not to mention knowing subdialects or understanding more complex words. This issue is constantly stressed in the source book, expansions and articles written for the game to remind players and GMs how suspicious their characters can be by the sole merit of talking in a different way than the locals.

Player characters can't exceed 5 points in neither skills and stats, even if they don't have any other caps. And said 5 is already labelled as "Legendary", being technically the upper limit. Cue some monsters having more than one stat at 6.

Horses that aren't provided with proper care in turn give their riders +1 to difficulty of all tasks. If they are tired, it comes with another +1 (and +2 if it's charging). If they are pushed too hard, they might start to resist at best. At worst, they will die out of exhaustion.

Almost all of the women in human and dwarven (but then it's a forge, not kitchen) societies are expected to stay in the shadow, doing gender-related roles of their race. Other races treat genders more equally, while dryads are a One-Gender Race of Action Girls. Mages have it much easier, since their trade is far more important and respected than their sex. Action Girl characters, particularly those non-human, will raise a lot of interest in rural and backward areas.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_9eb11fac	comment	Weak, but Skilled: With higher fighting skills comes lower difficulty, allowing you to get more surplus successes. Each of them can be translated into a fixed 3 points of additional damage. High skills allow to automatically pass most checks without having to roll for them or make the check trivial to pass. This in turn allows to bypass low Stats. One of the example characters, a dwarven warrior, has only 2 points in Dexterity and just 1 point in Perception, but in the same time boast 4 points in Armed combat and 3 in Shooting, allowing him to still be a highly competent fighter. Characters created with high Intellect are a meta-example. Higher Intellect provides more Skill Points during character's creation, allowing them to buy and train higher levels of more skills, but to rise Intellect you must first take those Stat Points from other Statistics.

There is also a clear difference between the 'low' and 'high' vampires. The lowly ones are no different from monsters and basically look like giant humanoid bats, while the high ones are the more familiar vampires, who can happen to be quite nice and friendly folks. Religious symbols do nothing to them and most of the 'high' vampires easily tolerate sunlight. They don't need blood to survive; it's simply tasty and strengthens them. There is some sort of middle ground, as creatures like the Bruxa are intelligent, but concentrate on sucking blood. Either way, when facing anything other than the low ones, run like hell, as they will No-Sell most anything and will drink your party dry in no time.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_aaaca277	comment	Luck Manipulation Mechanic: You don't want to get 1 on a Fate Die, no matter what. On the other hand, critical success is sometimes the only way to actually do certain things if your character stats or skills are low. There is a small insurance during fights in case of critical failures or to enhance critical hit chance, but outside of a fight you can't do anything to prevent such failures. All you need to do is declare using Combat/Arcane Point during your Hit Roll and you can add it to the outcome to chosen dice, one point per dice. This may prevent getting 1 on Fate Die, may give additional successes, or turn the attack into critical. Traits Lucky and Jinx are all about this trope. Lucky makes every 5 on Fate Die to work as a critical success, while Jinx makes every 2 a critical failure.

Combat maneuvers, especially those in melee, can affect the defences of both the target and the user of that move. Most often, using combat maneuvers exposes the user in the next round (because they end up in a bad position for blocking incoming hits or to avoid being surrounded by enemies). They can also increase the defence of their target, making it harder to hit (try to reach two people with a single slash of sword). Usually, more powerful moves do both. There are also defensive moves - they make it harder to hit your character, often exposing the enemy in the process.

Wounded makes your rolls progressively harder, while Dying seriously lowers your stats and skills and requires medical attention in a short time or the character will die. Reaching 0 Vitality or below it is an instant death. Armour soaks damage, so it technically gives you additional points of Vitality for the body parts covered by it.

When Nilfgaard soldiers reached the borders of the Northern Kingdoms, things only get worse. Elves learned the hard way to never, ever mess with humanity as a whole. While humans are divided, they also have unprecedented racial solidarity, putting their race (or at least country) before anything else.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_c2ef5a3d	comment	Druid: Druidism is one of the religions, with serious eco-balance preaching. Druids themselves have only a few traits typical to other fantasy versions and are more closely to the real-life version. Sure, they take women to their ranks, choose new candidates from magic-sensitive people and the environmental message is added, but that's about all. No shapeshifting, no special orientation in healing, no Animal Talk and especially no control over nature, since they consider it a sin. Think about it more like fantasy-counterpart Taoism than anything else. Oh, and they are usually nice to people. Unless said people are not nice to nature. Druids' powers were vaguely defined in the game proper and never standardised. Up too the point it takes a lot of careful reading to learn from the context they use prayers like priests and not spells like wizards. Made further complicated, as the second option is supported by lore and some mentions in the very same texts. And since there is no dedicated skill, it's all up to players and their story-tellers, really.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_cb12c416	comment	The Man Makes the Weapon: The main theme of the fighting mechanics In general, damage done by weapons (both rolls and the fixed part of it) is relatively low when compared to the bonus damage coming from higher Stats and skills. For example, a witcher or a professional soldier will deal about twice as much damage as a random mook, using exactly the same sword. And that's by just whacking someone with the sword, without any finess or purposefully-aimed attacks. It's entirely possible to single-handedly beat a small pack of heavily armed thugs with a stick (not a staff, but a stick), as long as your character is good in Armed combat and has enough Agility to naturally dodge incoming blows. Projectile-based weapons deal puny damage... unless shots are aimed for the head, unarmoured body parts or other weak points, which of course requires being a well-trained ranger in the first place.

The Council is a parliament-like institution, while the Capitule is made from the most prominent mages, leading and governing the rest. Wizards and sorceress are expected to be completely loyal. Council and mages as individuals have very strong ties with politics, local courts, and the precious stones industry. Bigger towns and cities are almost guaranteed to hold a resident mage as part of its governing body. Subverted in Nilfgaard, where mages are trained by the state for the state and must pledge their allegiance to the emperor and no-one else. There is no special — not to mention autonomous — governing body for them, so mages are subjects of the same laws and customs as the rest of society.

Some monsters were only mentioned in the saga, which led to the brilliant description of "ornitodrakon" - "This could've been an ornitodrakon(...)". There are also flavour examples in expansions, all of them being Shout Outs toward politics, history and pop-culture, both international and Polish. Almost all examples of mechanics in action are made using three recurring characters: Straight Man-type mercenary Svarte, Quirky Bard Jezkier and Gentleman Wizard/Inept Mage Perignon. Sometimes they are joined by priest Groam and witcher Cormac.

This is very helpful for novice players, not only those starting with The Witcher, but with tabletop RPG in general. Numerous elements of mechanics have alternative rules, ready for both players looking for simple solutions and those aiming for highly-detailed calculation of different factors. There is a lengthy but light-hearted (and not condemning anyone) chapter discussing different types of players and how their behaviour can enchance or spoil fun for the rest of the team. As mentioned below, there is a whole chapter about solving problems with the amount of witchers - going by one of interviews, devs started writing that chapter before they even fully decided to create the game, to be sure the problem could be solved.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_d30dfd1c	type	Ridiculous Exchange Rates
The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_d30dfd1c	comment	Ridiculous Exchange Rates: Stat Grinding is heavily affected by Diminishing Returns for Balance. For starters, you can't earn more than a grand total of thirty Points per whole scenario (which is a prize for the best player in the party - usually you end up with around 20 or even below) and you must pay everything up-front, which doesn't sound that bad. But: Stats take fifty times your desired level and all previous levels in Points of Proficiency. So upgrading something from 1 (and you can't have less than 1 in statistics) to 2 is 100 Points. Hoarding any higher numer of Points is simply inefficient and wasteful, so rising your stats beyond 2 (remember that the scale for Stats is 1-5) is pretty much impossible. More - you can't rise them by more than a single point at a time and you must find an excuse why your character became better in that field, which is progressively harder to do with higher Stats. It's handwaved in the rules that it takes a really long time and lots of training to actually improve your body or mind, hence the price and justification. Nothing beats combat maneuvers and high-end spells. Combat maneuvers cost ten times their usage price in Combat Points, so learning some basic stuff is around 20-30 Points of Proficiency, while all high-end moves and flashy actions are as far as 150 Points - that's right, the cost of upgrading your Statistics. Spells get fixed prices in Points of Proficiency, with basic spells around 25 and high-end ones at 100. In both cases you must first find an NPC or some form of manual that will teach you new stuff, which is not as easy as it sounds in this setting and usually costs a lot of money. During character creation, each subsequent level of skill or Statistic costs more, in similar fashion to later Stat Grinding. It's generally considered more reasonable to start with more skills on lower levels than land directly in the middle of Crippling Overspecialization territory.

All of them will No-Sell when in combat and are able to rip a whole party in an amount of rounds equal to the number of party members. Or one, if they stand too close. Aside from conventional attacks they can use magic to different degrees and all utilise telepathy (hence the superstitions that dragons know all languages). White dragons from the Far North breath ice instead of fire. Black dragons are native to marshlands and like to lounge in the mud, hence their coloration. They spit acid able to corrode any known metal. Red dragons are the closest thing to "classic" Western dragons. Rock dragons live, as the name implies, in rocky crags and hills. They are the smallest of all dragons and don't breath anything, but can turn invisible. Green dragons are the most popular species. They breath stream of chlorine, so its effectiveness can be affected by wind and topography. Getting inside their lairs is an almost guaranteed way to suffocate. Golden dragons are a Shrouded in Myth species able to shapeshift as they please.

They are hired by people in danger - sometimes very, very direct one - to sort the problem out. And the problem is usually some sort of monster or a curse. If payment in cash is not possible, witchers might get really creative with what should be given in return. Sometimes it might be your prized possession. Sometimes it might be your firstborn son. Witcher themselves by default won't just rush to help people or mindlessly side with this or another group, usually carefully picking their jobs, as if being bountry hunters. Players are repeatedly advised to always first and foremost be neutral and minding being able to pay rent for their witcher PCs, rather than trying to be Knight in Shining Armor.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_ea480f92	type	Simple, yet Awesome
The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_ea480f92	comment	Simple, yet Awesome: The game comes with few notable examples Any type of more advanced bows, be them compound (adding Strength to damage), overseas (ignoring sizable part of armour) or those carried by dryads (not requiring specific level of any Stat). Each of them has some cool aspect about them in-universe too, usually about their origin or being outright custom made, but after all, they are just bows. Fire Bolt, the most basic offensive spell. It just sends a bolt of fire toward target and usually is the starting offensive spell any magic users will get, but it's still magic and it still can kill a target in single shot. In similar vein, Aard sign used by witchers has amazing utility for something that can be described as a "Force push" and requires nothing else than proper hand gesture from just about anyone able to access magic power. Most of combat maneuvers are just basic hand-to-hand moves or fencing, often bordering on Combat Pragmatism. They combine simplicity, effectiveness and yet are still flashy. Highlights include: Painful stike makes target wince in pain for few rounds after being hit and is perfectly capable of finishing a fight without the need to cause any actual damage. Combination of blows is up to three hits performed in single, quick sequence. Perfect for those who always wanted to be a boxing champ and even better for decking some tough guy during a brawl. It also adds +1 to a single dice of choice during Hit Roll, making it impossible to get critical failure and much more likely to get critical hit or at least some extra damage from the roll. Disarm and Seize weapon are exactly what they sound to be. Suddenly very dangerous enemies can be rendered defenseless or with their own weapons pointed at them. Intercept blow allows to dodge the blow and use the inertia of the attack against the attacker, instantly applying grapple. Feint makes it much easier to land a hit, thus allowing to aim them without standard penalty. Or just overcoming defenses of superior foe, giving every underdog a chance. It's also the simplest fencing move in the game. Both Rebound weapon and Rebound attack allow to intercept an incoming blow, send it off (which is what inate defenses and dodging do) and leaves the would-be-attacker open for counter-attack, without a way to block it now.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_f6f6adeb	type	Railroading
The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_f6f6adeb	comment	Railroading: ALL of the official modules and scenarios written for this game suffer from a very bad case of assuming reactions and actions of players, while also fully hinging on them doing the assumed thing - and some even outright enforce the outcome, regardless of actions taken. The GM running them faces a choice: either double down on already linear narrative or the whole adventure falls apart the second at any given moment players do something else than assumed. The worst offender is the original scenario provided in the pocket edition of the game. The entire premise falls apart in the very opening, simply if the party lets the group of armed soldiers to take the young woman that cries for help, or, even worse, talk with them instead of getting into a fight or simply intimidate them into leaving. Starter from the full version of the game isn't better in this regard, as its premise hinges entirely on one thing: the party won't decide to attack the bandits in the opening and let them go with their antics. At least this one can be easily fixed by simply skipping the opening encounter and turn it into a tale of an NPC instead. The ones printed in the Sword and Sorcery RPG magazine are the least guilty of railroading, being more ideas for scenarios than solid scripts, but they still advice following a pre-planned plot and pre-definied reactions from players, once again without suggestions what to do if things turn out differently.

Many actions require the players to act like their characters in a given situation or to give a demonstration (like casting spells). First expansion introduced Points of Personality, granted for deep roleplaying, that are the only way to get perks.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_f89f164a	comment	Purposely Overpowered: Witchers. They get almost twice the starting skills of other races. One of their skills, Knowledge: Monsters, allow them to fight all non-natural creatures with better results. They start with one of the most powerful melee weapons. They get innate defences against all kinds of magic attacks. They can use Combat and Arcane points interchangeably. Happens when you are a mutant created and trained to kill monsters capable of smashing you into pulp with a single strike. The authors encourage the "one witcher in a team" approach, or at least "one at a single time". To a lesser extent, dryads. Just like in the books, they are capable of stealth in almost any situation and get absurdly high starting Shooting skill - just for the fact that they are dryads. They will also track you even faster than witchers. Oh, and their starting bow is the ultimate weapon for rangers. Sure, the damage and range are just above average, but unlike other high-damaging bows it doesn't require any level of Dexterity or Strength to be used, thus no Min-Maxing is needed.

The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_fb3b6acd	type	Bows Versus Crossbows
The Witcher: Game of Imagination (Tabletop Game) / int_fb3b6acd	comment	Bows Versus Crossbows: While both weapon types are by default under a catch-all Shooting skill, they still are distinctively different and often very literally at odds with each other. Example NPCs that are soldiers, mercenaries and thugs of all sorts, if armed with ranged weapons, will be carrying crossbows (usually the light variant). Meanwhile, elves, dryads and dedicated rangers come with not only bows, but also significantly higher Shooting skill. Mechanically speaking, crossbows by default have far better damage output (the strongest bow is 2d6+1, the weakest crossbow is 3d6), but a shorter range (roughly 2/3 of that of corresponding bow types). The main distinction comes from the fact that any heavier crossbow than the light variant (3d6 damage) takes a turn to reload. The actual damage output is still, however, comparable with bows and lighter crossbows, as even with the turn "wasted" on reloading, they just deal so much more raw damage thanks to the bell curve spread of their damage rolls and the fact they can't deal less damage than the average outcome of bows.

On the other hand, it was ripped from a book about this subject.
