Here's a link to the initial draft. This is a rough draft I hope would start some discussion and input on! You can skip to the end to see my "design philosophy". I wanted something I could "plug in". I really like the Exhaustion special condition so I emulated that to an extent. The initial...

That is a draft for discussion version! :-) I'm already looking to simplify it. I will create a thread here. Stop in and give me your thoughts!

I have to work this weekend (against my will). I will not be able to run these games. I have contacted the Con organizer. My sincere hope is that work will get organized to the point where I can make plans and not have them squashed. My sincere apologies to anyone who was planning to attend.

The gaming schedule is up! RustyCon Gaming

Happy New Year!! May your year be filled with joyous gaming, friends, mirth and good fortunes!!

What other game systems are you familiar with? I ask because there are several hundreds of games out there. Several of them have "mechanisms" for supporting play styles that appeal to various people's tastes. They range from the traditional ultra-detailed to the "new school" "narrative"...

I have to say, this is an incredible labor of love. Gorgeous character sheet, tons of info. Very impressive!

You can check out my other thread about the Con and the description. I'm going with a "crash land on derelict alien spaceship, explore, solve mystery, survive, discover something, escape" adventure with [redacted].

I'll be running 4 HARP games at the con! One each of Fantasy and Sci-Fi on FRI and SAT. I will be available to run a "part 2" on SUN (or even later FRI/SAT) for those who really like the game and want to see more. There will be a strong Privateer Press presence, and it looks like at least one...

So, sci-fi adventures seem to have a broad range of possibilities. What are the most fun of those possibilities? If someone pitched you an adventure for your next sci-fi game, what elements would you be looking for? Which ones are exciting to you? I want to put together a scenario for a con...

You can check out a smattering of images I took of my shiny new Hardcovers for HARP fantasy and Sci-Fi I picked up from DriveThruRPG. The quality is outstanding! Very impressed with them (for those on the fence about POD from OBS...). This game is actually really neat. It has enough of the D&D...

I am currently running a Legend game using the HARN setting. RQ is very good, I really like RQ6. It just has a different "feel" to me. Maybe grittier and more "down to earth"? I want something that will do D&D for me without having to use D&D. :-) Also, I don't agree that HARP is clunky. It's...

I have revisited my HARP collection after making a revelation I did combat wrong, downloaded all the updated revised PDFs, and started reading again. I really dig how the system works. One roll combat, classes and levels with reasonable number caps based on skills, gritty fun damage ala...

They should take the time to make the DMG make sense. Period. Much better to get it right the first time.

You sir are a scholar and a gentleman!

It's my Birthday!! *blows out candles* *wishes for the 50 gold he purchased* The End.

You really need to read this PDF - GURPS Mysteries. It's brilliant, filled with advice on running such adventures, and did I mention it's brilliant? :D

trechriron10 with the at symbol yahoo plus the dot com thing. I just sent another from this address.

I would say Posthuman Studios, hands down. Green Ronin publishing had Blue Rose so I think they deserve a mention as well. If memory serves, I would say Pinnacle and various Savage World settings tend to show people in very Heroic situations, although they can sometimes be "sexualized" I think...
