The Mushashi Flex

[Chimpira]

I just picked this book up yesterday and have not cracked it open yet but I am looking forward to it. For those not familiar with The Mushashi Flex, it comes from a series of novels by Steve Perry. The Matador series has some really great stuff in it and the first books are all fairly quick reads. Some of the later novels were not up to par but I still love the universe. Well, in The Mushashi Flex we get taken to a time before Emile Khadaji, Before Pen (I think that is his name) and we meet Lazlo Mourn, the man whom will create the 97 steps. (A martial art in that universe.)

I was wondering how many of you have created games based around the Matador Series. I know I created a Superhero based off of it one time but it is really SciFi.

The Man who Never Missed and Matadora were cool. I think that he has had some other stuff in the same universe, I seem to recall one involving a prison break and another involving a search for ancient technology on some other prison planet. I have never used the Matador universe as-is, but I have used some of the elements of it like the stetspod.

The bulk of my original Star Hero Game (cleverly code named, after endless debate, simply our "Space game"... we were using Esiponage as the base rule set to begin with) setting was stolen from the Matador series.
I think I was the only player to make a character who was an active Flexwalker.

If I can ever find them I have oodles and reams of notes on the setting, write ups of everything from Spetsdods to Parker carbines, FTS Bacterial Augmentation... the wholoe bannana.

The 97 Steps were easier to write up with the original Ninja Hero, back before they axed the ability to put Abort on anything... it was just as unbalanced as the all abort martial art from Strike Force.

Tell me about it. I used those same rules to make my character, Daniel Knight.
