My favourite piece is the "photo" of Nikolai Tesla and Dr. Nakami (when I read the post-it note, I thought the "recognize anyone?" line was referring to Tesla. I briefly thought the book was talking to me... I'm something of a Tesla nut).

Excellent stuff! That was the most entertaining gaming podcast I've listened to. Left you some feedback on the ASP forum. Looking forward to Episode II!

Uhm, dude... they are out. Unless you're referring to the traditions yet to be covered by Heap. Personally, I could be happy with just Diabolism; Enochian Theurgy is merely icing my cake, currently.

Certainly would depend on the product in question.

Is it just me, or does the art accompanying The Visionary look like a cardinal having a "d'oh!" moment?

Actually, the others are doing a very fine job. I'm very glad those with previous experience with Dark*Matter have chimed in. If I wasn't new to the setting, I might not have picked it up. By the way, Heap... I've got something I wanted to perhaps run by you. Something about the snowglobe...

Not really. The psionics here are geared more to the Dark*Matter setting, and there are no classes, items, or any other items of interest for psionics. If you want expanded psionics, quit waiting for something official and check out what the 3rd party developers have already released.

*applauds* Thank you! Good job with those stats.

Uhm... I recognized that code as hexadecimal, but I couldn't decipher it. A friend pointed me to this website. The results... you have to see it for yourself. InnocentBystander, who the hell are you?

Uhm... okay? "If something is not armoured, then it does not benefit from armour" is kind of an obvious statement. Like saying "a creature that cannot walk does not benefit from walking." d20 already has a system to account for unarmoured sections of a person or object: touch AC. While no d20...

I had wondered a long time about that Heavy Gear game. Thanks for shedding some light on it, johnnype.

*hides his cat* Don't hurt Molson! I'm just the editor!

I have a few beefs with the d20 Future mecha system (I have been working to rectify them with Mechævolutions) - most mecha weapons deal less average damage than an M1A2 Abrams tank (including weapons two or three progress levels above PL5). - melee weapons outclass ranged weapons thanks to the...

Spamming? Hardly. Didn't notice that I'm also an editor of said book, did you?

In your playtest sessions, how long do the average combats take to resolve? Also, is combat feasible without the aid of a spreadsheet?

It has a Dexterity of 0, but it can move (speed of 10, so I can see)? It's -5 Dexterity doesn't affect its Defense? I dunno. Even compared to standard d20, that's a LOT of statistics for something that could be represented in a much simpler fashion.

Head. Hurts. Ow. That's a lot of stats for one little gun.

I've been pretty busy lately (as Urizen said, I've got a book to edit). I'll be able to post more thorough impressions in a couple of days.

The new designs to make sense, form a certain point of view. Robots require lots of little parts to acquire the same kind of articulation and range of motion as human beings (unless they develop a synthetic system that mimicks muscles, but that would make them less distinguishable from humans...

Prologue (continued) * * * * * Jonas checked the time on his cell phone: quarter to midnight. And still no signal bars, which was odd. He'd just gotten off the phone as he was pulling into the Exit 23 rest stop, five hours ago. His reception had been fine, then. But now... “Excuse me,” he...
