Herolover Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Yes, I got the first post. So. Who is going to be using this book. I really figured I wouldn't, but after reading the playtest I am probably going to use it in a campaign. What about everyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edsel Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Yes, I got the first post. Actually I beat you by what was probably less than one minute. I am definately going to use the Terran Empire as soon as I can get my hands on it. I won't use it wholesale but it will definately save the time and trouble of drawing up my new campaign from scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 If I were starting another campaign right now, it would very likely be SF using Terran Empire. Of course by the time I get to start another campaign, Fantasy Hero will probably be out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monolith Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 We are currently making characters for TE. We are putting our GURPS Traveller campaign on hold and will be doing all our SciFi gaming with Star Hero shortly. Now if DOJ would just get that book out I wouldn't feel like a louse for letting the other gamers read my printed copy of the playtest manuscript.

Koshka Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 After the playtest, I'm really tempted to put together a SH game set in the Terran Empire. How I'm going to get the time to do this is another question . (edited due to smilie problem -- let's see if it's showing now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Well, it's pretty much in the hands of the printer, Monolith; we're gettin' it out to you as fast as we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syberdwarf2 Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 I'll probably use it for inspiration only. However, if my players truly prefer me to run TE, I guess I'll have to accomodate them. Especially since my current campaign is also my first attempt at designing a world from scratch........

We could send Mechanon out to have a talk with the printer:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 i'm gonna pick it up. Not sure if I will use it as my campaign, but after reading the playtest script I do want to have it around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Posted February 12, 2003 Report Share Posted February 12, 2003 I'm an addict I'm a Hero System addict, so I'll probably pick the book up. Ah, who am I kidding. I'll pick the book up. And it'll make me sad. Sad because convincing my regular gaming group to play a Hero game (other than Champions - and even that's not easy) is like getting an honest statement from a politician.

I understand completely how you feel. I am driving an hour and a half now just to GM Champions because no one in my area wants to do anything but play D&D. So of course now I have a HERO game and its...champions. Sigh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grymlynn Posted February 12, 2003 Report Share Posted February 12, 2003 Count your blessings. I am going to have to play Rifts if I want a game. At least until the guy who wants to run a Champs game stops working 80 hour weeks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckly I'm also getting to se my son that weekend as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monolith Posted February 16, 2003 Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 My guess is that Terran Empire did not make it out in time for DDC. If it had I would assume some lucky attendees would have been in here telling us all how wonderful it was. I must just wait longer. Darn that printer!

Steve Long Posted February 16, 2003 Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 Sadly, yeah, it didn't make the show. We have a manuscript here to show people; so far everyone's loved it. The book should ship in about a week to 10 days, according to our best current info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syberdwarf2 Posted February 16, 2003 Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 I thought we got Mechanon to solve that printer problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomd1969 Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 Unfortunately, due to this cold weather, Mechanon's joints have all frozen up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhamin Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 Don't worry, by the time the next book comes up I'm sure he will have adapted to correct that design flaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
