    Mutants & Masterminds 3rd Edition

    I'm looking forward to seeing this, and I seriously hope Ultimate Power is incorporated into the main rules as opposed to being a seperate book.

    What Science Fiction Games are being played these days?

    Unfortunately, I'm more of a "dead-tree" type of person. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy PDF's for reference, but I spend too many hours in my professional life (and personal life too!) staring at a monitor, and I guess I prefer actually holding the book in my hands. I did manage to get a copy of...

    What Science Fiction Games are being played these days?

    Alternity is a great system, that unfortunately got killed off with the licensing of Star Wars, well before it had a chance to take off. It's proudly displayed on my shelf. Eclipse Phase seems like an interesting concept, I managed to grab a hardcopy a couple weeks back, but haven't had a...

    What Science Fiction Games are being played these days?

    Dark Heresy and Rogue Trader are both fine pieces of work, with amazing production values, which carries through on practically all the supplements. It really takes a bit of work to get past the "large army" mentality of 40K to bring it, at least with the groups Ive ran it for. Everyone wants to...

    What Science Fiction Games are being played these days?

    Well after reading the "quick start", and the sample from both the main rules and the encounter book, I pulled the trigger and ordered the dead-tree versions from the publisher. (Nice bundle deals they have!) Even if it turns out I don't care for the system, there is a plethora of material there...

    What Science Fiction Games are being played these days?

    Forgotten as it didn't leave an impression, or forgotten you hadn't had a chance to read through 400+ pages? ;) I've tried tracking down reviews, and read the "quick start", which puts me in mind of a cross between Shadowrun, and Obsidian, but since I haven't tracked down locally anywhere I can...

    What Science Fiction Games are being played these days?

    Since the topic is on Sci-fi type games, does anyone have any info on Alpha Omega by Mindstorm ? (who happen to be a sponsor here). Somehow this slipped off my radar, and sounds interesting, but as always, I'd curious if anyone has first hand experience.

    Whats going on in your game?

    Well, it's been quite a while for me, (both posting and running a game!), but I'm getting ready to start up a Ptolus game, with a brief intro adventure I wrote (4th level, looks to be a party of 6), that will be leading into the Night Of Dissolution / Banewarrens hybrid, then, assuming this...

    My Dead PowerBook

    Get Applecare. That would extend your warranty to 3 years, and would have covered this failure you experienced. Bare minimum of a gig of ram. And do all the updates to prevent the "sudden shutdown" syndrome. Be prepared for a noticeable speed increase going to Core 2 duo over a G4. Some apps...

    Hair spray and spandex did mix for a time...

    Mindcrime is good... LIVECrime is far better. Some of their earlier cuts are decent , Like "The Lady Wore Black", "The Killing Words", and "I Dream in Infrared" come to mind.

    GM's: what was your first module?

    wouldn't that be S3 Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, followed by S4, the Lost Caverns of Tsojconth ? Those were the first two I ran, back to back. And had serious problems with the players trying to leave.

    The group from the tail section didnt seem to be doing real well ("there were 23"). And I can't help but wonder about the button. What if pressing the button every 108 minutes prevents something from happening in one of the other sites, opposed to the one our heroes are in? That would put a new...

    Things you would gladly buy...

    That will be sweet, especially Cannibal Sector One. The HardCover edition of the rules is nice, but we need more books, more source, more BPN's, more... Back on Topic... A D20 Shadowrun would be nice. A D20 Dark*Matter would be GREAT. A Conversion (or full blown D20 Version) of Kult would be...
