Pegasus Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Greetings all. I've been lurking for some time, and now it's about time I said something. I've noticed a lot of people discussing using Hero in various different gaming worlds through conversion and such. So I ask this: has anyone ever tried to run Paranoia via Hero? I know that Paranoia and Hero are about as diametrically opposed as you can get mechanics wise, but I got in the mood for Paranoia recently, and, well, I don't have any of my old stuff. I do however have a big black book with a green man on the front. Just thought I'd ask. Logan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadeFox Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Dont see whay you couldnt do it. The only exception is the time it takes to create a character, and the speed with which they are exterminated. But, if players and GM are for it, do it! Another idea might be to use the UNTIL powers database as a sort of mutant powers table. Since in Paranoia, there was no attempt made (or needed) at balancing the mutant powers. Just make a list of say 100-500 powers and mutations (bad powers), Id suggest an active point range as diverse as -25 to 100, for full flavored FUN! and then have the players roll randomly and give them little note cards with their Special Power on them. Then Kill em for holding a WHITE notecard..... LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
