I remember it's trippy as heck. I think I remember the evocative backstory and interesting setting more than the mechanics, which I guess is true of a lot of the Indie games from back then. EDIT: ELEVATOR PITCH: "You haven't slept in a week, but every day the True Reality becomes clearer. You...

Me: "Not today, Satan!" Satan: "This is the third time you've canceled on me. I miss you! I want to see you!"

I have also played and run this game, exactly once each. I no longer remember any details, as it was in the heady days when I could go to a convention and actually just play games for 48 hours straight (minus the occasional shower break, I wasn't raised in a barn). EDIT: I need to pull this out...

I used to think this way as well, but I was putting away my shopping cart once and an employee on a smoke break told me, they only get sent outside to put away carts when the parking lot gets too bad -- the boss doesn't feel it's necessary to do it if people still have room to park. And when...

You know that feeling when you're hanging out with a bunch of friends, and they start talking about what a great time they had at this place, and it doesn't sound familiar to you, and then you all come to realize they just didn't invite you when they went somewhere and they kind of forgot you...

Vampire Hunter/Bard. I guess he multiclassed! Ain't that a shot in the head?

"And that boy was Abraham Lincoln."

Look, I came here for an argument. But with Snarf in the thread, it's more like abuse. Don't hate on me just because I'm a Bard!

Man, I really loved the witch classes for D&D. So much so, I tried to trace their development in a four-part series of blog posts. Which version did you use? Look, this is the USA. Avoiding accountability for your decisions is as American as Apple Pie, the Star-Spangled Banner, and David...

Agreed. He had written quite positively to Lee Gold in Alarums & Excursions early on, and then after the success of D&D, he wrote to the APAzine threatening them with legal action for their D&D/AD&D coverage of houserules. I suspect as time went by he decided "his" version of the game (the one...

Uhhh...

I believe all extremists should be put to death! Wait... Damn it...

... but they probably are. Make sure to check in with your local gatekeeper!

It definitely eliminates all those threads I started about this awesome deal on c1al1s* that got locked immediately... * I don't actually do this, please done hate me.

I used Standard Heroic points (175 in 6E, 150 in 5E) and let people build their characters as normal, using occupation packages from the thread on the Hero Games forums. In hindsight, I should have had them use the Lifepath system in Classic Traveller, and then reinterpreted the results in light...

Nobody wants to work anymore!

Hero is a solid system. Except for superheroes, it's never going to be as good at reflecting a particular franchise as a dedicated, well-designed game, i.e. Pendragon; however, since the Superhero genre touches on every other genre, Hero (designed to reflect it) can as well. For Traveller, you...

I found my post on the Citizens of the Imperium forum where I talked about what I ran. Man, that was a great group and a great campaign! Adventure 1-The Kinunir, by Marc Miller (1979) Adventure 2-Research Station Gamma, by Marc Miller (1980) Adventure 3-Twilight's Peak, by Marc Miller (1980)...

I ran a 15-year-long Traveller Hero campaign, using the Traveller Hero products for stats but the GURPS Traveller stuff for fluff (when I needed to flesh out stuff from my Classic Traveller stuff). I have no complaints! I ran many CT scenarios, plus Mongoose's Secrets of the Ancients (from back...

I rate myself 11/10 Cthulhus, good with rice.
