    Pulp Spycraft (FINAL UPDATE!) *Updated 04/15/03*

    PULP SPYCRAFT More stones rained from the roof of the mansion and monastery. A constant fog of dust and smoke fomr small fires now rolled through the laboratory and into the mansion foyer. Nadia backed away, shoving McGregor behind her. She knew she had a gun, but the little .32 wasn't too...

    MnM Vampire template

    I'm going to post one (thinking of dropping a Buffy one-off on the players) but I was wondering whether any Green Ronin folk had any definite versions they'd be using. Vamps are mentioned in the SPECTACULAR "Freedom City" expansion but none are statted.?

    Scarred Lands: None Dare Call Them Heroes (updated 12/07/03)

    It means I have writer's block on my script. And, actually, the Drunk Southern Girl game's been dormant for a while. Figured I'd catch up, and try to get more current on the SL thread, as that's the onging game. I'm going to update Pulp Spycraft, but as that's sadly the last chapter, I'm kind...

    DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls with Guns ... UPDATED - 8/18/05!

    GONE MISSING: Chapter 6 (Warning: PG-13 stuff in here. This is a Dark Ride...) Jo was curled up in the backseat of one of the rental cars. The guys conferred. "Okay, for just a second, let's assume she's not nuts," Ross started. They stared at him. "For a second." "You know, when they...

    Scarred Lands: None Dare Call Them Heroes (updated 12/07/03)

    Ch. 5: “Wherein our heroes get the first inklings of their tiny, annoying place in destiny’s web.” Indigo raised her eyebrows as the soldier gasped and passed out. She pried the man’s hand off her arm and leaned over the wagon edge. “Excusing me. Does anyone know what Cambragia is?” Kirby...

    Re: Re: Re: ? May I sing the praises of SPYCRAFT once again? I'll be doing a little article about this conversion on my website soon (hopefully) but just grab their psi system and slide the power down a few notches, or up the vitality (subdual) cost to powers, and they play flawlessly. One...

    DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls with Guns ... UPDATED - 8/18/05!

    Re: ? Sorry, should have made it clearer. I prefer the feats and skill system of psionics -- so those skills are actually "powers". The telepathic backwash of thoughts was just a cool way to introduce the idea. Through training and upping her medication, Jo will come to ... if not...

    D&D 3.x The 3E Anti-Power Creep thread (or... ideas for running lower-powered 3E games)

    Really interesting. I'm using two things which have kept things a little tighter than most: 1.) Use the Treat Injury abilities from D20 Modern. making non-magical healing important. Also, a hang-over effect from healing potions. They still do the job, but gulp too many and some negative...

    Seeking suggestions: "Shadow Chasers"-ish adventure (My NPS group, please stay out.)

    Don't forget human minions -- of Josh' s family is that powerful, a group of mob or family "cleaners" targetted at the PC's would be a fun combat and also confuse the issue with a third-party.

    I saw THE CORE! [not completely OT]

    continued: P-kitty: AAAAUGH! EVIL PANDA! RUN! Silver Moon; I was indeed one of the ten-years-worth of writers on Catwoman. I haven't read the latest draft, so lord knows what's been done with it. I'm sure it's shootable. Latest projects, as somebody asked -- adapting Asimov's Foundation...

    I saw THE CORE! [not completely OT]

    Schmack, your Baptist upbringing is showing -- :p Let 'em laugh. Last time I looked, the check cleared. Okay, responses: Everyone who liked it -- thanks a lot. Glad you got 2 hours of non-war fantasy sci-fi time. Everyone who didn't like it -- sorry. Everyone who decided they hated the...

    I saw THE CORE! [not completely OT]

    Well that's embarassing. I was off the boards for a while, came back and found MY snarky comment was based on the fact I got caught in one of the EN board loops where some of your nicer posts didn't show up. My apologies. And sorry about the *shrug* bit. Never seen it except for one...

    God, I love those books. Big-time cool sci-fi. Nice to see another fan out there. Why is it the British have such a great grasp of sci fi, I wonder.

    Warren Ellis' stunning new comic series GLOBAL FREQUENCY. Miranda Zero (god, I hate how the British seem to be genetically gifted at coming up with cool names) runs an organization that cleans up the Cold War's messes. From a Russian teleportation psion linked to an abandoned nuke to an alien...

    DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls with Guns ... UPDATED - 8/18/05!

    Couldn't have done it without the other lads being right b@stards about it. IN game would have been easy -- but actually convincing her she was going nuts in the middle of Andy's living room? Ahhh, joy. Makes me want to crack open the D20Modern book and finally put something new together ...

    I saw THE CORE! [not completely OT]

    I think he was making the point that wider general circles other than just sci-fi would get the joke. He may have mispoke when he said "general sci-fi circles" but as that's a subset of "general circles", I don't think his statement's off. We got a physicist, some biotech guys, and a frikkin'...

    DM's Commentary From my homebrew D20 Modern -- WILD PSI: Pick two psionic skills. They are now permanent class skills. The execution: don't tell Jo she's getting the feat. So this is how we did it. All the guys arrived ten minutes before Jo. I showed the a green magic marker. "When I'm...
