Vondy Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 One of the things I have always loved about Hero is the language chart and associated systems for interrelation, etc. I'm wondering if anyone has done, or is aware of, expanded language tables. The 4e / 5e table is solid for Europe (to be expected) and the Americas, but once you get into Africa and Asia its much more vague. Basically, I'm big on pulp, espionage, and globetrotting adventure and am focusing on "non-traditional" areas of adventure. I can sit down and do a ton of research, but it would be great if someone else had already done it! So, is this something that exists?

L. Marcus Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 The expanded language tables from The Ultimate Skill ought to suffice. Vondy and Joe Walsh 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The similarity chart in HERO System Skills goes on for six pages, and only one page of that is Indo-European. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vondy Posted September 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 Thank you both. I forgot they had been expanded in TUS. I will go look it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclevlad Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 If you have HD, it's also there. In fact, the single largest chunk of the Main6E template is the languages section...it's over half the file. There's something over 600 languages in 26 families, plus the unique, unrelated languages not similar to anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been pretty "stripped down" on build ethos of late, but languages... yummy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
