[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 4976333, member: 22779"] Session 3 of Sufficiently Advanced under my belt. I'm REALLY liking this system. Easy to use, clearly written. Very neat. I was going to run a more complicated scenario today, but, last night, I realized that I hadn't given my resident head basher anything to take a swing at yet. It was time to let him break some heads. So, I shelved my scenario (based on the novel Absolution Gap by Alastair Reynolds) and substituted a new one based on a short story by (I think) Stephen Baxter. In the story, a generation ship flees a war torn Sol system and tries to reach another system at sublight speeds. A journey of thousands of years. In the short story, Baxter explores the idea of evolution in a closed environment, splitting the crew into a sort of Morlock/Eloi split. So, I followed along. The ship was detected and the party dispatched to find out what was going on on the ship. First they ran into the morlocks. The party combat guy went all happy and tried out his flame thrower. Unfortunately, he got cut off by the Amish farmer who spent a twist to end the fight. Very fun. Everyone was giggling like slightly concussed monkeys throughout the encounter. Always a good sign. The party passed through morlock territory and have just met their first Eloi. If you like, the transcript is [url=http://fuiche1.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=downloadattachmentpage&board=dotf&thread=134&post=1567]here[/url]. I should post some of the artwork from the game. I like how this last background came out. [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v79/Fuiche/Sufficiently%20Advanced/Background.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
