"Number Appearing" is such a neat-looking supplement for DW. The whole concept of playing as the monsters against the heroes raiding your home is cool to see fleshed out, but I especially like the Compendium Classes. They look flavorful and its great to see examples of them since the DW prelease doesn't have any.

Lemon Curdistan posted:Crap, you're right. Let's try this again. I'm seeing a bit of a weird contradiction with a miss meaning "security is already on its way and you have to leave now" yet being able to choose "you have plenty of time left." These are all awesome ideas. I was brainstorming a cyberpunk-ish AW hack too, but it was more Deus Ex-inspired and based on everyone being cybered up to varying degrees.

Or have the (full?) bonus come into effect only in the presence of the Fucker or a Lieutenant. Shrug off the mooks, go straight for the leader.

Not sure how well EP and *World go together to me, but this came to mind anyways:quote:When you resist the Exurgent Virus, roll +Nano. On a 10+, choose two. On a 7-9, choose one.

InfiniteJesters posted:Does 3:16 with modified ApocWorld mechanics sound like a good idea to you guys? 3:16 setting using AW-style mechanics, or 3:16 crunch with AW-style mechanics added on? If its the latter, that just seems unnecessary to me. 3:16's built for a specific concept and adding moves or playbooks would just clog it up.

InfiniteJesters posted:Oh, okay. Oh yeah, you could probably grab the tags and gear rules from AW and add them to 3:16 with minimal fuss. But beyond that you'd be messing with 3:16's very specific setup. It is pretty simple and I guess that could leave room for wonkyness. I'm no mechanics expert though, just going by what I like.

I could see a L5R hack though what I'm visualizing is more on the DW side of things. There'd be a playbook for each role (Bushi, Courtier, Shugenja, Ninja) and each would have 1-2 Clan moves like DW's Races, stats based on the elements ("When you seek inner calmness, roll +Void...") and so on. Not sure about how to include Honor, Status and Taint though.

I see you forgot to mention the nuclear hell raven in that lineup. Why do I recognize it The posterize function ins pretty awesome though. Instant savings in the art department when publishing your own book!

Looks very much like the book art there, did you posterize then trace over the shapes/clean up the "splatters?" Its so simple but fun. Here's the Juggernaut I was going to submit to Captain Foo's AW game, found after looking through Maschinen Krieger stuff. And now I want something AW with a lot of power armor and cyborgs. Started brainstorming something based on a concept I found online a while back and an android RPG. PCs are either tortured cyborgs, the handlers assigned to watch them and maybe some other playbook. Thing is, I can think of a set of stats for the Cyborgs but they wouldn't work for non-Cyborgs too well.

Was looking for good "apoc"-y photos for inspiration and I found a treasure trove of abandoned places and things. So many ideas for places. Speaking of which, any interest in a newbie PbP game of AW? I know there's 3 or 4 running at the moment so I'm not sure how many people here haven't played AW yet but want to get in on it. Its that or trying my new copy of Monsterhearts out.

All right, I'll try to have a thread up by Monday when I'll have more regular computer access. Question for those MCing a game on the forums, what're you doing different? I'm thinking the whole "1st session" stuff and creating Fronts: did you use the questioning and general discussion in the recruitment thread as a proxy, start off in 1st session mode in the gamethread, or a bit of both? Or am I just overthinking this?

Captain Foo posted:What I did was ask every character as a question as they were submitted, hopefully drawing some worldbuilding information out of them. After I selected characters, the Hx rounds did their job as well, establishing some relationships. I started the thread beginning at the First Session with no Fronts written, and as we get to a good spot I'll probably "end" the "session," do the requisite between session work, and then start the Second Session, and continue from there. Thanks, this should help a lot. I was following the OOC and IC threads loosely but I'll take a closer look at how it builds together.

I found Monsterhearts from the Walking Eye's AP of the game. Two episodes in I was hooked and picked up the PDF. I'd probably be up for some Monsterhearts too. Online, that is. Seems like it'd be a hard pitch to most RL groups. Somebody should run a PbP of it ThreeStep fucked around with this message at 06:53 on Nov 28, 2012 |

Captain_Indigo posted:If I ran a Cyber World game on the forums would people be interested. It's a quick mod I've thrown together that is primarily about changing the names and concepts of characters to better reflect a Cyberpunk game. Yes, sounds neat. Can I be a cyborg/android with a torso-mounted arsenal (Gunlugger)? Or would that be more Ghost in the Shell than cyberpunk?
