Checking for interest and to see if any one had good ideas for a system to use. Would need to be fairly low/no magic system. While I do love a good RP system, I would like to have a cruncher system. I like d20 systems and was thinking of using Pathfinder Path of War or Spheres of Might alternative systems. They seem too oriental for the game setting without changing a lot of fluff. Though some stuff does tend towards what I'm going for. Any thoughts, ideas, or interest?

There's a Conan 2d20 bundle of holding still on I think. The system is pretty solid, from what I've tried. The tone should be good, with lots of similarities in Cimmerians, for example, to Viking.

Trudvang is pretty much what you are looking for I think.

I haven't had an opportunity to look at it, but there is a game called Yggdrasill.

Picked up Trudvang and Conan 2d20, looked at Fate of the Norns: Ragnarok. Fate of the Norns looked fun, just not sure how to Pbp that one.

Alright, so I read all the rules for Trudvang. It looks like a really crunchy system. I'd really not try to play by post with it without experienced players. For now I'm going to put this on a back burner until I get a better handle on the system. I read both the players and game masters guide, which seems you need both to even build a character just fyi.
