bumping with known games
Mini Six
D6 Fantasy

Not really fantasy but Don't Rest Your Head uses pools of d6es in various colors to represent different ways successes/failures play out. So players can add, say, a few red Madness dice to the pool to boost their chances of success, but if the highest-numbered die in the roll happens to be red then he might gain some permanent madness.
Bumping for interest, it'd be nice to have a simple d6 based rpg stored away.

I have one generic fantasy rpg in my hands named mystical heroes, the pdf no longer exists but i can type some of the rules
Henry Ward
Burning Wheel / Mouseguard? Not sure if they have classes, but I think they have d6 pools.
Juan Smith
D6 Fantasy is great
Grayson Sanders
The A Song of Ice and Fire RPG
Its also pretty good, if lacking a magic system.
Alexander Lewis
Tenra Bansho Zero.

Burning Wheel doesn't have classes, but it is a d6 dice pool system with a fantasy focus. Torchbearer, a spin-off that's somewhere between BW and MG in complexity, does have classes. It's an OSR-inspired game about dungeon crawling though, so they're linked to race (which the BWHQ games refer to as "stock"). So you're a human warrior, magician, cleric, thief or paladin, an elf ranger, a dwarf adventurer, or a halfling burglar. That might be a deal-breaker for OP, depending.
Also note that it's really not a generic fantasy RPG. It's meant to be a hard dungeon crawling game.

Tiny Dungeon is technically classless, but mostly it's just selecting a few traits from a list to build a character.
It also has cute salamander people.
Mason Morgan
Can you post the pdf?
Noah Rogers
It's only $3, so if you like it please consider buying it!

Tunnels and Trolls.

Arguably shadowrun. Fantasy in the metahuman/magic aspect, and while technically classless, there are archetypes you should probably stick to if you want to be useful in any capacity.
Jaxson Hall
Shadowrun is technically speaking a fantasy setting
Zachary Jenkins
I think that he meant more of a high fantasy game
Julian Long
Yes, anyone knows some house rules for opend6/minisix system?
Zachary Watson
what a time to be alive i found the game(but it is in spanish)
Leo Brown
explain why this is good? seems meh at best, on a quick read
Zachary Collins
Just wanted to post a different system and i like the dismenberment rules in it
Leo Cook
where the hell did you find it? any link to the creator(s)?
Nathaniel Barnes
My old group(mostly older guys) had this rule book and played it sometimes, i could play it but it looked interesting
Ayden Collins
Well, you always roll 3d6, so I suppose it's not a pool, but GURPS Dungeon Fantasy has a wide variety of classes (plus DM's can use regular GURPS to build or modify classes if they want).
The kickstarter page on the dungeon fantasy boxed set has all the details.
Evan Price
lol i was waiting for someone to recommend gurps
Parker Flores

Brayden Phillips
At that point you may as well say Dungeon World/World of Dungeons/Other PbtA fantasy as they all use 2d6.
Or Strike! which uses 1 or 2d6. Or scrolls and swords which uses 1d6.
Chase Parker
I'm actually close to being able to play a system I've been working on that uses d6 dive pools. They're all over the place, representing your skills and what not, but what's most interesting are your Vigors.
Vigors represent your energy throughout the day. They refresh based on how much you've eaten when you sleep, and are dice pools you can dip into to improve your performance on a check or damage roll or whatever. So if you need to push really hard to move a boulder, you can dip into your Stamina.
It's still rough around the edges, needs a lot of sanding and polishing, but I'm pretty excited.
Noah Phillips
My DM used the magic from warhammer fantasy battle rpg.
It was interesting to be sure.
Jace Johnson
Honestly, OD&D using the Chainmail combat system is pretty fun. Just print off the to hit tables for your weapons, and memorize what differences in weapon lengths do, and its a nice 2D6 system for a fantasy game.
Jackson Moore
Isn't there a system called 'D6 Fantasy'? Don't know if it's classless.
Andrew Flores
sounds really neat, when do you think you'll have a play test ready?
Justin Ortiz
Maybe a week or two. Maybe just a few days. The system is getting really tight. Content is what's sparse, though (skills, techniques, statted beasts, magic), but that isn't what's in the way of playtesting. All that needs really getting clear before I can actually jump in and start poking around is the initiative system. Then I can adjust numbers like Target Numbers, skills, and Vigors as I poke around.
If you want an update, you should be able to edit this doc down here with like an email or something, if you're coo widat.
