That is some serious gastrointestinal distress there.

What tactical elements would you say are common to shmup craft? I have a cannon, bombs, and force fields. Different specific shmups have different variations (like a combat drone that circles your ship and fires the same things you do at the same time) but would people agree those are the basic elements common to almost all shmups?
Those are the main ones that come to my mind.

The idea sounds rad. Personally, I would use Savage Worlds and just design the ships the same way you would make characters, just tweaked to match a ship of course. I would also have a top down, gridded board to move the ship around for sure. Oh, and maybe use static damage values instead of random?

Sounds fun, good luck.

Oh, have you played Bullet btw? Pretty cool shump inspired boardgame by Lv99. You play in real-time and frantically try to clear bullets off your board by matching patterns and using specail powers.
 

So one of the adverts on pandora is for Netflix and it jump cuts between folks describing their favorite show, honestly I'd watch a show about time travelers laundering money for a Mexican cartel

I am using Hero System, since I've been using it for over 30 years and am very fluent in it! Also, my home group prefers it. But they're easy to translate to a lot of systems. My plan was to start with a generic craft, and then tweak for the various craft. This is the list I compiled, I'm only doing the ones I highlighted because I was able to find "stats" for those.

This brought a return to prison and a reason the judge accepted for divorce. They did not find any evidence to back up rumors of counterfeiting coins. (Story from 1896).

The point isnt if the thing, is actually a thing. One can either be in favour, or against it, but lets at least accept that the thing, is a thing and stop pretending its not. Its been years now, its bleeding across multiple publishers, it very clearly is 'a thing'.

PS: kthxbye

PPS: Reminder, we peaked as a civilization in the 90s.
