    Pathfinder 1E Creating a Cyberpunk Hacker Class (for NeuroSpasta)

    In the setting, nearly everyone has a neural implant called a SEED, which is a memory recording / playback device / iPhone, able to recreate and record sensory input. Hacking is reletivly rare but obviously the PCs would be part of the exception, as well as dealing with opponents equally...

    Pathfinder 1E Amethyst - Renaissance (Pathfinder) UPDATE

    In all honesty, we started with realism and as the game scaled, it became more like your average 3rd person shooter like Gears of War (or more accurately, Spec Ops: The Line). All the modern rules we created can be removed and used in your own homebrew game. Simply ignore the disruption rules...

    Pathfinder 1E Amethyst - Renaissance (Pathfinder) UPDATE

    I think I write these books just for reviews like these... "I cannot overstate the quality of the interior art in Amethyst: Renaissance – the book has a grand total of three artists and between them, they’ve produced what might possibly the single best-illustrated book ever made for...

    Pathfinder 1E Creating a Cyberpunk Hacker Class (for NeuroSpasta)

    In this thread, it's my goal to post details on the Pathfinder-compatible ¬cyberpunk rules being developed for DEM's upcoming NeuroSpasta game system. This is the initial stage, so there's still remains considerable work fine tuning the details. First, an overview. The goal of these rules...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Cyberpunk? If not, do you want one?

    I am only cursory aware of Shadowrun. I know of the setting basics but never read the rules. I was a Pondsmith / RTG disciple in my youth. Since the rules are being made from the structure of 3.75, I don't plan on introducing any new mechanics if old ones will do the job just fine. I'll be...

    If people are still wondering about the details on hacking, I could post all of them and let people decide.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Cyberpunk? If not, do you want one?

    Writing it down... "Co-Op Hacking". Check. Shouldn't be too hard. An ally can either assist on a firewall attack or attack one while another player targets another. I may have to add a few more rules for that. I am at the hacker class as we speak (manipulator), using Renaissance as the...

    Well, it looks like it's going ahead. We'll need playtesters if anyone is interested.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Cyberpunk? If not, do you want one?

    Right now, we're still developing the specifics, except I will say that it is not terribly complicated unless you wish it to be. For one, there isn't a whole new set of rules governing hacking. As we stated before, it doesn't use a tabletop, but does employ opponents built from the same...

    Right, flechettes are needlers. Got that mixed up with sabot. I already have those.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Cyberpunk? If not, do you want one?

    This project began because of the work DEM did with Amethyst Renaissance, our Pathfinder product. Amethyst is a science fantasy with eight classes already created. Our plan was to use them as the baseline and transfer their basic structure over while also adding in the new hacking class, the...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Cyberpunk? If not, do you want one?

    Yes it is, but from my personal experience, hacking is generally a job for one person--the hacker in the group (I've never had a group of just hackers), so we didn't want to create an entire combat environment and take time away from the other players. Plus spacial hacking is kinda...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Cyberpunk? If not, do you want one?

    The feel we are looking to recreate is that of the Shirow Masamune works of Appleseed and Ghost in the Shell. To that end, we decided to make hacking non-grid/map-based and more about abilities, programs, viruses, and die rolls. We have a good number of cybernetics as well. We're also...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Cyberpunk? If not, do you want one?

    As I mentioned also on the Paizo message-board, as the sales for Amethyst Renaissance come in, I started thinking about our upcoming espionage / cyberpunk setting, NeuroSpasta. Originally, it was designed for 4th Edition, but the book is mostly fluff and not much more would be required to...
