Important tip for "Dogface"

[JPL]

Remember: in WWII, every squad had a guy named "Brooklyn."

First half of the war, every squad had a guy named "Fatty" too.

By 1944...not enough Fattys left to go around.

Has anyone gotten the issue of Poly with Dogface yet?

 

[JPL]

Not I.

Me neither, but I'll be pouncing on that puppy when it hits the mailbox.

And all squads had the guy name "Tex" and a guy named "Mack".

I love on "King of the Hill" when Cotton introduces the gang from the VFW and there's three guys named Fatty and two guys named Brookyln...

"The last thing I remember before I lost consciousness was beating the rest of the Japs to death with a big piece of Fatty..."

Y'know what would be fun? Run a Dogface campaign, and for the last session do a reunion, sixty years later...the old soldiers have one last battle...

This thread amuses me, because my favorite part of Chris's original Dogface pitch was that there would be a feat called "Brooklyn."

Of course, the feat idea didn't make it into the final version of the game, but there will be time to redress that grievance.

By the way, we changed the name of the game to "V for Victory" to avoid confusion with the forthcoming GURPS: Dogfaces RPG supplement. We're really nice guys.

Coolness. How are you guys working the lizard aliens in the game?

That's it --- I'm quitting my job to become a game designer. My wife will understand.

Have you ever read Harry Turtledove's "World War" series? (lizard-like aliens try to invade Earth in 1942)
