Lost Boys/Santa Carla RPG Sourcebook?

[Kesh]

Eden's recent production schedule reminds me of GoO's shortly before they closed their doors -- lots of IP licenses purchased, lots of products delayed indefinitely, etc. I'd love to see them publish anything at this point in time

All Tomorrow's Zombies just came out in PDF recently, and the print version should be in shops soon.

That's cool. . . but what about the City of Heroes RPG, Beyond Human and other big (and largely hyped) projects that have been on the drawing board since mid-2004?

Duke Nukem Forever will be in stores before Beyond Human hits.

Awesome. As soon as Arr Thar be Zombies comes out I can realize my dream. Combine the following sourcebooks

All Flesh Must Be Eaten + Terra Primate + Enter the Zombie + Arr Thar Be Zombies + All Tomorrow's Zombies. With these rules, create a party of characters consisting of a zombie, monkey, ninja, pirate, and robot. They fight crime!

I was thinking the other day that a Lost Boys prequel, set in the Old West and setting up how the vampires came to be there, would be interesting.

Get a city map of Santa Cruz, CA and a phone book with yellow pages for same. Then you're halfway there. (Visiting there once and checking out the boardwalk would be good research, as well. You'll quickly find SC is a city designed by people on drugs for people on drugs.)

Then pick a system. Buffy and WoD would probably work (although WoD is probably a little too "serious" in tone), and Savage Worlds would probably do nicely - get the Rippers campaign setting and set it in 80's SC instead of 1800's London.

Pretty funny - I work in Santa Cruz ( where the movie was filmed )

check out this article:

excerpt:

"McMann, who currently performs under the stage name G Tom Mac, has just finished recording a batch of songs for ‘The Lost Boys 2,’ the long-awaited sequel that is now currently in production from Warner Bros. for a direct to DVD release."

Oh, and the "Boardwalk" amusement park is 100 years old this year!

- not on drugs ( at the moment )

Sweet, I'd love to see a sequel.

Are there any good online sources about your town, BFG?

Sure - depends on what you want to know - some things that might be helpful in getting a city campaign going here for starters. ..
