Sorry OP but did you receive permission from the Tolkien Society to use that image?

DnD's stat and diceroll mechanics are its own (I think) and there are some RPGs that I can think of that inherit just that without the Tolkien-reslopped worldbuilding.

Even the chuds on /tg/ agree it's horrible. It has stupidly complicated rules for dumb shit like swimming while combat is glossed over.

Also remember that "Varg's" real name is Kristian lmao.

Fallout used g.u.r.p.s or g.e.r.p.s or something, not dnd

Fallout uses S.P.E.C.I.A.L., it started of as a GURPS game, but that was later abandoned.
And Fallout was influenced by games like Wasteland and Dark Sun.
