This was no mean trick, given that the original rule system was designed for a setting somewhere in the middle ages.  Many rules tweaks were required, but eventually a working system was developed.<\/p>\n<p>A few years after that game ended, I decided to run one of my own in a similar vein.  He was happy to forward me the house rules for Modern Ars.  Meanwhile, the Ars Magica rules had been rewritten as version 4, so I did some more tweaking and updating.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the Ars 4 rules are available as a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rpgnow.com\/product_info.php?products_id=774&amp;src=FreeArsMagica\">free download,<\/a> I figure I might as well do something similar with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/arsmagica\/\">Ars Moderna version 2<\/a> ruleset&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Just as a warning, I&#8217;ve been using it as something of a playground for experimenting with cascading style sheets.  For now, it&#8217;s got the same setup as the &#8216;blog, but that may change.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I admit it, I&#8217;m a gaming geek&#8230; Fortunately so is my Fiancee, so there&#8217;s little danger of her becoming a dice widow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[24],"class_list":["post-1406","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-personal-blather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1406","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1406"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1406\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1406"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1406"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.quirkspace.com\/quirkblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1406"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
