I would use 3:16 for a GL: CORPS RPG. Much like the starship troopers / space marines in the core 3:16 Carnage Amongst the Stars the weapons and effects for each character is not vastly different – and it’s up to the player to narrate what effect is going on. So here is [...][...]

Hacking 3:16 into an universal fantasy game
Can 3:16 be turned into a fun universal system? There is already a SF variant, so I will focus on a Fantasy variant. Here are my thoughts so far: [...]
[Warhammer] The Book of Sigmar
Sigmar is a Warrior God, and his clergy are Warrior priests. Sigmar, in his divine all-seeing wisdom, knows that there are many unseen and supernatural evils and horrors which beset mankind, and so channels His own divine power through his chosen priests. The soldiers of the Empire, trusting in thei[...]
Adding Extra Stat(s) by Skinner’s Pigeon
Alternate title: Forgive Me, Gregor, for I have Sinned. Okay, so I love 3:16. I think it’s the bee’s knees, elbows, and spleen. But my players just aren’t getting into it with the same gusto. Fortunately, one of my players is also my wife, so I have plenty of opportunity to grill h[...]
Carnage on the Reik
In this thread I post all the stuff I’ve done to hack 3:16 so that it is suitable for the Warhammer Fantasy setting. I hope some people will be interested in working with me on this hack. I have lowered the kills the various weapons do to keep in line with the grim and gritty nature [...][...]
Gears of War Conversion by Gavinwulf
Greetings, I have been on somewhat of a Gears of War kick lately and have also just discovered the joy of 3:16 Carnage Amongst the Stars (of which I posted a play report recently). So I’ve made some notes to translate weapons and stuff from Gears of War into the 3:16 system. (my apologies if [[...]

16:3 Justice amongst the Heavens by Whiteknife
In the serene brilliance of the far future there is only peace… For as long as the majority of the millions of sentients across the galaxy recall, the universe has been under the control of the Terran empire. For as long as the Terran empire has had control there has not been a single large scale [...]

13C: Hack and Crash by Mock
The Classic “Elite Virtual Reality Hackers” idea from, say Shadowrun or Cyberpunk: -Hacking Ability and Non-Hacking Ability take the place of FA/NFA -The System takes the place of the Planet -Threat Tokens become Countermeasure Tokens -Kills become Exploits or Cracks or something like t[...]

Warhammer 40K variant by Gregor Hutton
I’d change the pick list of Aliens to being a list of creatures/army types from 40K and I’d have each planet being a host/legion/army of the enemy. The Orks or Eldar aren’t going to be wiped out on one planet. I might even just make the enemies be predominantly from one race for 5 [...]
3:16 + Jedi by Robert A. Roger
I have a sickness. I get a game and I never think, “I can’t wait to run this,” but rather, “what else could I do with it.” But I suspect I’m not alone with this madness. I’m sure this has been done before, but I’ve been watching a lot of The Clone Wars[...]
