FMC Basic - Randomized Treasure Hoards
So FMC Basic by Marcia B. rules. The simplicity really speaks to me, especially when it comes to generating treasure rewards. But I'm a sucker for randomization, and I suspect it will seem odd to players that every treasure hoard will come out to an exact number of thousands of coins. Additionally, I like the idea of portions or all of treasure hoards occasionally being a valuable object that takes up a single slot while being worth more than the usual 100 coins that fit into a single inventory slot. So here is my attempt to add those features to the treasure hoard generation with just a few simple die rolls and coin flips.
