(OOC) Transformers: Robots in Disguise!

[Brother Shatterstone]

Discription from FFG's website.

Fantasy Flight continues the Horizon line with Mechamorphosis, a world of devastatingly powerful robotic warriors that hide among us as cars, jets, and everyday objects. Some are terrorist aggressors, enacting evil schemes to dominate human kind. Others are self-declared defenders of the human race, fighting their mechanical foes and avoiding the military forces of the fearful and desperate people they are trying to protect.

Their battles rage from hidden desert bases to active volcanoes, from the depths of the sea to the frontiers of space. In Mechamorphosis, the warrior doesn’t pilot the robot; the warrior is the robot.

Complete d20 minigame . . . no supplements needed

Great for a single night of playing or a short campaign

Follows in the tradition of wildly popular cartoons, comics, and action figures from a genre enjoyed by all ages.

Excerpt from back of the book.
An ancient, secret war rages across the galaxy, and Earth has become its latest battleground. Welcome to Mechamorphosis, where you don't just pilot the giant morphing robot - you are the giant morphing robot!

The power-hungry Tyrant mechamorphs have followed their peaceful Exile and Animech cousins to Earth, hoping to enslave humankind and suck the planet's resources dry. Only the valiant Exile rebels and the wise Animech warriors can stop them.

In this d20 mini-RPG, players take on the roles of giant morphing robots, intelligent living machines that can change forms to appear as vehicles, weapons, and even robotic animals. Spy on enemies with your miniaturizing massmorph ability, take on airborne foes in high-speed aerial combat, or send your companion mechamorphs - smaller `bots that merge with your form - off to do battle for you. You can constantly adapt and upgrade your powers with form feats, but beware ... so can your enemies!

I saw this an ordered it and I curious as if there is enough people, and a DM, to get a game started...

PS If the DM is broke, I can help out, yes that's a bribe.

Looks very interesting: Feel free to bribe me, because I am indeed broke. I'd need a few days to digest the rules though.

Hey! It's Transformers! I would be interested Brother, but unfortunately, I won't be able to get the book.

 

[hafrogman]

I'd be interested in playing, but probably won't order the book until it's a little more certain that the game would go forward.

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

Okay I got my book in the mail yesterday night and I must say it looks to be very good.

So I would like to see another call of people who would like to play or DM. At this point I'm not to worried about who has the book and who doesn't, just post if you want to play.

 

[hafrogman]

Well, I broke down and ordered my copy. It hasn't arrived yet, but I'd be interested in playing. If nothing else it gives me an excuse for having ordered the book in the first place.

 

[rangerjohn]

Well, if the books not a requirement Brother, you've got me.

I might go that far, but I would rather not...

I added the overview from the back cover of the book to the first post now.

I'm planning on getting the book, although it's gonna be about two more weeks before i can get the spare loot. I love transformers i'd be interested in giving this game a shot.

Is this gonna be actual Transformers, or what ever setting the book might have?

That's fine, I suspect it will be a slower game to form based upon how uncommon the book will be.

I'm game anyway, if we do Transformers we better do season 1 or I'm going to be lost. If there is more clamor for homemade transformers I'm fine with too.
