Re: Order of the Stick Sigh.. They are going to get their ass kicked again I think.

Re: "Neat" Pictures Wow that Dart Vader series made me melancholic.

Re: Creepy Pics. That is what everybody thinks until you got 15 gorillas standing on your doorstep wielding machetes and banana guns.

Re: Hunger Games and Survivor The first seson of the colony had professional actors filling in some of the roles of the survivors. And it was the characters I thought were the lamest.

Re: Killiing a lot of zombies from a safe position. Thanks men, that is a good game allthough I would prefer a more serious style of graphics. I finished both games and had a great time. The zombies needs to be able to be defeated in my oppnion its not even a question in my campaing. I think the whole everybody dies mentality is popular with young people who just understood that they themselves are going to die one day so they get a bit hung up on it. Just now I actually have bit of problems with my players they are so intent on running off into the woods and survive of the land by themselves, so that my "preserve civilization in the face in barbarity" themed plot-railroad is in danger of going of it tracks. If this continue I will have to do a time skip and think about how the diffrent factions have fared in the zombie apocalypse. Sadly and boringly most of them will be dead.. Oh well that will give lots of room for exploration adventures atleast.

Re: Killiing a lot of zombies from a safe position. With my new rules popping zombies with sniper rifle is done in one roll and we can go right on to the rebuilding roleplaying part. Very fun for people who like strategy games like civ and stuff. Roleplaying, task management getting and losing allies, lots of stuff to do after the zombies are (for now) cleared out. I am planning for a long term game and the main enemy is going to be the traitor general and his evil soldiers which is the reason the millitary did not manage stop the zombie plauge in the first place. Off course the bad guys have understimated the zombie plauge too so in the end the hordes of hungry dead might be the final victor.

Re: Hunger Games and Survivor The post apocalyptic book has great rules for the Hunger Games setting. Hunger Games being post apocalyptic in genre and all.

Re: Killiing a lot of zombies from a safe position. I try to avoid spoilers but there is one scene, very dramatic and good that have the whole group are shooting at a large group of zombies. I will pm you which episode it is. I am sure you understand that replaying that scene in the hero rules would take a up a lot of real time and get boring after a while. Also crafty players WILL find a way to get into a situation where they have the opportunity to shoot a bunch of zombies from a safe position.

Re: Killiing a lot of zombies from a safe position. Nah, I have failed if I make them roll for every shot. In any case there is always more zombies.. That is the idea.. Making it only one roll to speed up the game and deplete their ammo as well. Win win. Your a fan of the walking dead Martin2, how long time do you think it would take to play out the scene where they shoot all those zombies in the hero rules?

Re: Killiing a lot of zombies from a safe position. Its just the way life is... There is never a 81mm mortar or an industrial shredder around when you need one.

Re: Killiing a lot of zombies from a safe position. Nice! I will steal it I go for classic Romero zombies in this campain. Allright I am thinking making a ranged roll and the number of points you make it or miss it with adds 5% to the number of bullets you spend or lessen the number of zombies you kill. based on this list Ocv 1: 600 per 100 zombies Ocv 2: 500 per 100 zombies Ocv 3: 450 per 100 zombies Ocv 4: 400 per 100 zombies Ocv 5: 300 per 100 zombies Ocv 6: 250 per 100 zombies Ocv 7: 200 per 100 zombies Ocv 8: 175 per 100 zombies Ocv 9: 150 per 100 zombies Ocv 10:100 per 100 zombies Ocv 11:75 per 100 zombies What do you guys think?

I am doing a zombie campain now and I need some suggestions for some quick and easy rules for determing how much ammo the characters spends when killing zombies en masse from a safe position. Taking into consideration shooters fatiuge, they skill level and their ocv. Rules both for expert snipers and regular folks and everyone in between. I am thinking figuring out the roll they need to hit them in the head, counting up the zombies they need to shoot, figuring out the numbers of rolls they need to hit and do a die roll to find out how lucky they are today. So I know how many zombies they killed and how much ammo they used doing it. Basically I dont want to have the characters roll every shot when they are on a roof surrounded by two hundred zombies and have five boxes of ammo with hundred bullets each.

Re: My mother's wacky dream might make for interesting fantasy gaming? Were their bodies covered in snake scales or were they normal human bodies with snake heads?

Re: Special Missions team Burglar. Hacker. Close combat specialist. Security specialist. Driver. Spotter/tactical cordinator. Maybe a sniper if its violent setting. That the roles I think of when creating roleplaying scenarios. Take it for whats its worth.

Re: Creepy Pics. Looks like the penultimate version of the ultimate universe.

Re: Order of the Stick In my head he is a nosferatu vampire who drink blood and con point and can in some cases go out in sunlight. Let me check my collection and I find out what book its in.

Re: Order of the Stick Nale killed three of the vampire lizard priest's children.

Re: How (un)realistic are Street Samurai? A big thing about Street saumurais are the idiology behind the name. The concept is that in the future modern warriors will adopt or try to adopt Bushido to some degree. These street samurais will become romantic ideals in the media but the reality can be a lot grittier depending on the campain. They would use guns, knives, grenades and fists as the mission demands. Samurai swords or cheap knockoffs would be carried as symbols of honour, and might be used in ritual duels between warriors of that culture. Culture is the more important than weapons. As for weapons swords might come back into use if armour tech evolves beyond bullets tech and you would need monoflimant swords or something to get through the armour.

Re: Perfect World acquires Cryptic Studios Ni Hao to our new Chinese red masters! I wonder how this will affect the hero games line up of books?

Re: Complicate the Person Above Allthough Death Tribble never broke into the top twenty charts in USA, his hit "Are you looking for tribble? You found it!" stayed at the top of the pop charts of Italy for three weeks.

Re: Aliens in Dark Champions They could be the men in black or the mysterious moth man type of creatures.

Re: Order of the Stick Because Thog is berserk now, Roy as an intelligent tactical fighter would know that it is pointless to try to surrender, if anything it will only make Thog more eager to kill.

Re: Order of the Stick His grilfriend, the pasifist mage, she probably got illusion school and would think saying that they surrender would be sensible given the current situation.

Re: Order of the Stick Crossing fingers for it being illusion here. Please, let it not be another case of depressed author screwing up his story. The reason I think its an illusion is that Roy is to smart to try to surrender to a berserking barbarian. Its no use.

Re: Help fleshing out an idea Long time ago a group of psi tried to take over the universe and the crystal is a remmnat of a weapon used by a oposing psi group who belive that free will is the most important thing in the universe. The distant war and the power of the first psi group held is the practical reason behind the diffrent empires aceptance of and encoraging of persecution of psi\s. The second group of psi peope are asteks who only use their psi powers to protect others from hostile psi groups.
