[QUOTE="pming, post: 8469130, member: 45197"] Hiya! Admittedly I have no real knowledge of CP Red other than it exists. I bought Cyberpunk 2013 when it came out in '88. Like, the DAY it came out; friends and I had driven down to Los Angeles for fun a year before graduation. We hit up a "hobby shop" and the guy told us of the cool new game that he JUST put on the shelf that morning; nice, flat-black box of Cyberpunk 2013. Anyway, we played it a handful of times. Loved it, but man was it deadly! Not the type of RPG we were used to other than, perhaps, Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play (1e, obviously; which we bought a year before when it made it up to our neck of the woods here in Whitehorse, Yukon). I am currently using CP2013/20 with a handful of supplements to craft a future campaign...set in the year 2165'ish...using DOOM Eternal as the setting. 😁 I've always wanted to run a "DOOM RPG", but never found the right fit. Even one or two fan-made DOOM RPG's...didn't quite 'do it' for me. I tried to use other systems over the years, but nothing, as I said, 'fit'. Then, for some reason, I realized I was looking at the system RIGHT in the face! Cyberpunk! How I didn't see it I'll never know. I think it's because of the "aesthetics" of the DOOM games...always made me thing "dark, grim, gritty, rough". It wasn't until DOOM Eternal was released and I saw it's visuals (lots of sleek tech, stores with neon signs, corporations omnipresent marks, etc) that it just slapped me in the face.
