EDRPG - any useful online resources?

rootsrat · Feb 25, 2022

Hi all! I finally have the time to get into the EDRPG (official Elite pen&paper RPG). I have done some GM-ing back in the 90's, so a little rusty... At the moment I'm reading through the core rules book and learning the system.

Can anyone share any useful online resources? I know there is https://roll20.net/ this service, but maybe someone knows anything better or more suited for EDRPG specifically. Any other stuff? Interactive character sheet, specifically for EDRPG etc.?

Anything will do really

I wouldn't mind looking through the books to see the lore perspective of it. I don't have time to play though.

Well, you know roll20 so that is about my online tool knowledge about rpgs.

There is an EDRPG Discord server here and there are usually one or two people around to answer questions:
https://discord.gg/YWds4mH

The official site should (or used to) have character sheets as a free download and also a free teaser adventure with pre-rolled characters.
There are more resources on the wiki (link to some resources in the info channel on the discord, including tokens for roll20 use).
Pop in, say hi, and good luck with finding other players and materials to help build your adventures!

Do you have to use 5 sided dice?

I think the scenarios went the way of the dodo but the character and ship sheets should be available on the official site.
Actually quite useful for keeping track of what I've got and what needs doing regards my in game ships. (Better than a huge number of post-it notes)
Same for the system sheets for spots of particular interest.

Thanks for your replies all! I actually found my way to their Discord and here are some more resources, courtesy of EDRPG Discord

things that i use for my games:
https://edassets.org/#/ for basic E Assets
https://probabletrain.itch.io/city-generator to generate cities
https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/ to generate names
https://store.steampowered.com/app/592260/Dungeon_Painter_Studio/ to generate maps

and the tools made by me
https://tools.ldg-clan.de/shop.php for random loot and stores
https://tools.ldg-clan.de/sysgen.php for random systems and exploration data
https://edrpg.ldg-clan.de/textgen/ to create messages in elite-style

And character sheets are on Roll20 as well, so that's sorted too!

Can't wait to get into it
