[QUOTE="R_J_K75, post: 9151627, member: 6921294"] We played our first ModernAGE game on 9/24. I bought the "Feral Hogs" module and we got up to the point where the players are leaving Preston Heights. It went well. I'm sure we totally screwed the rules up but we're reading and digesting things in small chunks, and plan to implement more rules as we go. Everyone has their own copy of the Basic Rulebook for the table and had at least a passing knowledge of the rules pertinent to their characters, and we just winged it as we went along. Our next game is this coming Monday so I was watching this play through to get a better idea of game play and the adventure itself. The irony being that the GM in this video had never GM'd the game before, seems they all had a decent handle on the rules, more than us. I never watch play throughs of other people playing RPGs, by this one is hilarious because of "Hogman" alone. I was laughing so hard I was crying at times. Definitely a nice, fun change from fantasy RPGs. I will say (as others have said) the stunt system plays a huge role in the flavor of this game and watching this video made me realize that. Why does this happen in EVERY RPG, at the ~1:30 mark theyre talking to the leaders of Preston Heights, theyre still covered in hog blood and guts but no one notices or says a thing. LOL. When I ran the first hog attack the players watched Cletus get eaten by hogs before they got within encounter distance, then killed a few hogs by drive by, Clarence got trounced by the Squealers and as they were evading the situation, Mary Sue tried jumping onto their vehicle and got ran over so they never had blood on them. The NPCs just didn't Stunt! [MEDIA=youtube]M8VOrHUf1ng[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
