This thread will end in shame.

The system looks interesting (free basic primer), but it lacks Roll20 support. However, I have players who understand the dark arts of computer crafting. But it looks like is failed to honor a Kickstarter, and the website feels like its dead. So, two questions: 1) Anyone played the game? 2)...

I want the details of counting coins, as do my players.

My system does; not for pooping, but rest, eating, and maintenance are fully covered.

I will have to look into this. I am by nature a hermit, and am married to one, and the ability to game whenever I want far outweigh the benefits, if there are any, of excess Human contact.

Truth. Rules lay boundaries and structure, but in the end, they serve the players 9includeing the GM), not the other way around.

OK, I didn't know that overproduction was normal. Yeah, I understand overhead. But the question I was asking, was that the blog post claims that the 400% was funded by Kickstarter. So I guess the adjusted question is: how much overproduction with crowd-funding is considered standard...

Politics and economy are inseparable. Both impact each other throughout the spectrum.

I never concern myself with player agency. I run my campaign, and some players make choices that I exploit for ideas and plot twists, and some players are content to roll with the flow.

The post brings up one claim that I wondered about: the claim that Cephalofair produced 4x the units using kickstarter funds. Now, crowd-funding, as I understand it, is essentially people pre-paying for goods in order to enable the company to produce the products. But is it usual to...

Nope.

Yet so many try...

This is wisdom. Managing expectations is the key criteria. You have to have the right players, or you are doomed. System+setting+the right sort of players = GM entertainment.

Never heard of it? It dates back to the early 80s. :oops: ;) A good system, skill-based. I've only used 4e, because its a bit math-heavy, but the Roll20 support makes it a breeze to run. Excellent damage system, decent skill system. I've never used the setting itself (but I've used the concept...

I felt the Dungeon of the Mad Mage was the improved successor. But WLD was OK if the GM broke with the 'dungeon' mentality and treated it like it was a country or region; If the group chose sides in the various (lightly covered) conflicts, they could have a large and varied experience with...

My go-to modern is Morrow Project 4e.

I expect they would be operating on numerous worlds in the course of the campaign; I usually run campaigns of 40-50 sessions. What they would need? Ammunition, food, medical gear, batteries, munitions, special equipment, better equipment, replacement equipment, clothing for the climate...

I guess it depends on your players. I've always GM'd for adults, who don't need simple things explained to them.

You need to decide if you are basing it on the books or the HBO series. If the latter, choose a system with detailed rules for nudity and sex.
