Talarius Gaming System
Published by Fantasy Makers Industries the d100 System is a role-playing game system. The system is primarily used for standard pen-and-paper role-playing games, it is also used in miniature battle games also published by Fantasy Makers Industries. The system is named after the Latin term Talarius (talarius : Latin; (adj.) having to do with dice or dice-playing.) and uses 2d10 (two ten-sided dice) to represent a score between 01 and 100 (00) and is used in every roll within the system.
The Talarius Gaming System is a hybrid partial-success multiple-success system that provides the ease of conflict resolution inherent in a multiple-success system combined with the convenience of not having to roll large numbers of dice. Unlike some other partial-success systems, however, the degree of your success is clearly quantified both for the purpose of determining the difficulty of opposing ones actions (e.g. directly opposed attribute checks) and the effects of those actions (e.g. the amount of damage from an attack).
This game system appears to be in development. There is a website offers information regarding the rules, setting, products, etc.

Famous quotes containing the words gaming and/or system:
“Sir, I do not call a gamester a dishonest man; but I call him an unsocial man, an unprofitable man. Gaming is a mode of transferring property without producing any intermediate good.”
—Samuel Johnson (17091784)
“We recognize caste in dogs because we rank ourselves by the familiar dog system, a ladderlike social arrangement wherein one individual outranks all others, the next outranks all but the first, and so on down the hierarchy. But the cat system is more like a wheel, with a high-ranking cat at the hub and the others arranged around the rim, all reluctantly acknowledging the superiority of the despot but not necessarily measuring themselves against one another.”
—Elizabeth Marshall Thomas. Strong and Sensitive Cats, Atlantic Monthly (July 1994)
