There is a upcoming tournament in my ACKS game and I want to give my players a chance to participate. However, I am rather lacking in ideas as to how to play a tourney. Archery and the melee is easy enough, but jousting? Anyone know of any good jousting rules?
>>98249130GURPS has some rules for jousting.
>>98249337Forgot image
>>98249130Chainmail has jousting rules, not my thing but there's been a decent amount of discussion of how to implement them in OSR games. https://deltasdnd.blogspot.com/2023/07/solving-chainmail-jousting.htmlPersonally it sounds like a great excuse to break out the old game Full Tilt! and play that.
>>98249130>acks shill is lacking in ideaswhat a shock
>>98249766You're just making fun of the guy, but OP struggling with something that should be simple is very much a symptom of playing a game that took some hundred pages of the entirety of B/X and turned them into a tangled wire drawer of rules deliberately stretched and padded out to 1500 pages.

>>98249766>>98249847what the hell is your problem...
>>98249337>>98249340GURPS is dogshit tho>>98249766>>98249847>endless bitchingpost a character sheet, nogames faggot>>98250213local schizo
>>98249130There aren't jousting rules in Imperial Imprint? I'd go with>>98249745and use Chainmail or Full Tilt
>>98249745intresting
>>98251151>There aren't jousting rules in Imperial Imprint? Probably because it's Roman-coded, while jousting is more Medieval-coded.
>>98249130yeah i got an easy fix for you: play an actual game
>>98253453jesus christ, man
>>98250213ACKS got shilled so hard and dumbly it got banned from a bunch of websites, and only has a few hundred players remaining world wide.Makes sense to treat it with suspicion and laugh at anyone who got suckered into buying it.
>>98253629I think you might seriously have a problem
>>98249130You missed your general
>>98249130I considered all the jousting options, found them wanting, so made my own (specifically for Fantastic Heroes & Witchery, but should be adaptable for other OSR games)https://bloodandironrpg.blogspot.com/2025/11/fantastic-heroes-witchery-medieval.html
>>98253629so your....on a crusade on 4chan to shit on people playing the game?Because... they (ACKS?) bullied you on other websites?
>>98254058call the mods
>>98250213>>98254949Ellipses are for faggots
>>98255065you volunteering... boy?
>>98254956MODS, MODS! OVER HERE, THIS ANON HAS POSTED OUTSIDE HIS DESIGNATED GENERAL!MODS, PLEASE, IT'S A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH!
>>98255091See? No one cares.
>>98251132>too dumb to crib a jousting minigame , or too mad about GURPS to consider itstop GMing
>>98255224Im not OP. GURPS is trash
>>98249130>Plays ACKS>Asks others for rules
>>98255355Where is jousting in the ACKS book?
>>98249745>Personally it sounds like a great excuse to break out the old game Full Tilt! and play that.that's actually a neat idea, thanks
>>98255255GURPS may be trash, but the splatbooks have some of the best GMing advice that there is on how to run games, even if those games are not GURPS. GURPS Britannia or GURPS Arthurian Legends would likely have jousting rules suggestions that could be easily adapted.
>>98253629Better than the woke shit that was so trash it failed on kickstarter that or never touch when they did get it due to how trash it was. At least with even all the hate they have people playing unlike the woke shit pushed and people don't touch. Also, ACKS is bigger than you might think but tourists like yourself wouldn't know. (I bet, you can't even play 5e correctly without help.)
