Some swear by the Rolemaster Standard System ( RMSS), which the consensus seems to regard as the most complex variant, perhaps because they consider the complexity to pay off or because they prefer it as a generic system which yielded some extremely interesting contributions outside of the fantasy genre, or Rolemaster Fantasy Role Playing ( RMFRP), the 1999 version which retained a lot of the crunch of the Standard System but pivoted back to a focus on fantasy. Some consider the original system as developed during its first and second editions to be, if not perfect, at least solid enough for their purposes, and regard the changes of later editions to be mistakes which ultimately took the game in the wrong direction. ![]() The fanbase is splintered between several camps. ![]() No major new version of the game has come out for over two decades ( Rolemaster Classic is not a new edition but a rerelease of the second edition with spruced-up art and layout). I know that’s a stark statement, but it’s essentially true. Rolemaster, in terms of its official editions, is stagnant.
