Over this summer, I plan to actually follow through with my idea of a board game that, if I like enough, I'll turn into a video game. I had the idea of taking the AD&D ruleset, heavily modifying it, and then making a game out of it using my own lore. Something like a D&D lite, but with other more random (and potentially) fun elements. Think 2nd Edition DnD mixed with more card drawing. I have some questions:
- What are some good stock/generic figures I can purchase? It's going to be in a fantasy setting so crap like warriors, goblins, dragons, etc. I don't need the figurines to be highly detailed but I don't want them breaking from being accidentally dropped either. (NOTE: I also need some steampunk elements things as well as my lore has some technological elements to it.)
- What's the best and cheapest way to make durable playing cards? I plan to have stacks of cards that the player draws from (ect, they find a magical item, so they draw from the ITEM DECK).
- Would using a "die-rolling" system (ect, use a D8 for this action, a D20 to avoid this trap, etc) to determine the outcome of events going to cause any copyright infringements towards WotC?
- What are some stock/generic game boards I can use for setting up the places my players will explore?
- I'm not a great artist. Any sites where I could use some stock images to act as place holders?
- Thoughts/Suggestions?
