Re: Curiousity about vampires and werewolves Not even Chuck Norris!!? And what about Ninjas!!?

Re: Curiousity about vampires and werewolves I always found it curious how humans are relegated to a purely cattle position in V:TM and W:TA as well as the Underworld movies. Has anyone considered for a moment that humans are the ones who came with things like the A-Bomb, Biological and Chemical weapons and that in a universe where magic exists there just might be a small chance that Joe Kohonez and crew might be doing some damage of their own? But I guess that blows the whole mystique around the whole vampire/werewolf thing when you can kill or disable 'em by spraying a suspected area with garlic powder, holy water or silver nitrates from the air.

Re: Space Adventure: The Five Essentials Come on man, everybody loved the Space Herpe!!!

Re: Packages I think packages are a great way of simplyfying character generation. I also think it'd be a great idea to create a Book of Packages in pdf format to which we all could contribute.

There’s a book called Dies The Fire by S.M. Stirling tells the story of people thrust into a post-apocalyptic setting where everything invented after the 17th century just stops working. Needless to say although the premise and setting are interesting it does have some holes in the plotline which I’m sure any good GM should be able to fill up. I was wondering if anyone knew about it and what they thought of the background for gaming.

Re: 20 Years ago Today I was standing in the living room of my apartment in a 4 story walk up tenement in a rough part of Brooklyn watching the launch. When the shuttle exploded I felt a cold chill and nauseous from the horror.

Re: All Flesh Must Be Eaten The one thing the Zombie genre doesn't ever take into account, which is why I think the campaigns are kept short run, is the human ability to adapt. I have Land of the Dead and the one of the annoying things that struck me was how they built a fence but never built a simple wall which would have offered better protection. I think in a Zombie-verse no one has an IQ higher than 8 and 99% have the Psych. Disad - Shortsighted on a roll of 15-.

Re: DUNGEON Adventures Magazine "Hope that helps." ???!! Wow, Thia thanks ALOT! for the input. Your post although I'd considered some things in it already put it in crystal clarity. I've used "alignments" before in both HERO and the Fuzion system as Psych Disadvantages. It worked pretty well. Again thank you so much.

I have a big pile of Dungeon Adventure Magazines that I'm considering using for my Fantasy Hero Campaign. Just wanted to know know if any of you had done that. One of the things I want to run is the Cauldron campaign arc with some changes that would have the adventures make a little more sense of course. Any suggestions would be extremely helpful.

Re: Star Hero Campaigns That's E V I L !!!! :eg: :eg:

Re: Star Hero Campaigns Question: If the Nemesis Collar can render the wearer unconscious. Why do you need to have an explosive that can blow their heads off??

Re: Chronicles of Gor Your post Sir makes my arguement for me. I never said no one could express their opinion. I just felt based on these posts that those opinions were not thought through. As I stated I could be wrong about that. But what bothers me is that too many people seem to be obsessed the idea of "right thinking" nowadays. I've read one of John Norman's books and a friend of mine read them all. But here I find people taking one aspect of a writer's fantasy world and using it to build a cross to crucify him without considering the other aspects of that world. That's utter nonsense. By that analogy I could take Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan as being racist based on the idea of a white man being Lord of the Apes simply because no one from the surrounding black tribes was given the job. As for me "coming from on high", that is your perception not mine.

Re: Exodus 2025: A campaign idea looking for input! That's Hollywood and television for you these days. No talent and no imagination.

Re: Star Hero Campaigns I guess because I think STAR HERO has more structure and support. Don't get me wrong I like Fuzion I just prefer to use HERO.

Outside of the Terran Empire universe what original campaigns if any have you guys put together and how’d they run. Right now I’m looking to port over a sci-fi campaign I ran using Fuzion (don’t hit me). It’s a campaign where the players are the crew of an old small tramp freighter rigged with breakthrough technology like a zero point energy generator and singularity cannon. They make a living doing various deeds and misdeeds while running from the Terran Union a totalitarian government which runs earth and a large swath of extra-solar worlds under the heel of a neo-communist socialist/nazi ideology where everyone is “equal†or else. But of course some are more equal than others.

Re: When sfx become an advantage So would Autofire allow for multiple Ninjas???

Re: I Need Some Thugs LMAO LOL LOL LOL!!!!!!

Re: Chronicles of Gor Maybe I'm misreading some of these posts but I think that we have to remember one very important thing about Gor. IT'S A FANTASY WORLD!!!! For crying out loud when I see people saying that writers like him should disappear I have to wonder what the hell his going on with gamers these days who've decided they're the Thought Police for the rest of us. Misogynist?? Why, because women on Gor are treated like slaves in that world. Again it’s a fantasy world, NOT REAL. John Norman is not trying to make women into slaves!!! Reminds me of when people were complaining that the Lord of The Rings movies were racist because they portrayed apparent Saracen types as the bad guys. You know I used to think gamers put more thought into what they said then most. I guess I was wrong.

Re: WWYCD? "Once more, with Justice" I go insane because reality has shifted into a musical and begin systematically killing every living thing.

Re: Exodus 2025: A campaign idea looking for input! "Personally, I am tired of the "benevolent superiors making us all sing "kumbaya"" I like that comment and I fully agree. I'm also tired of the "self-loathing all the evil in the universe is our fault" view taken in alot of "Sci-Fi" lately like the new Battlestar. Whatever happened to the happy medium where humanity can be scummy sure, but we can be great too. Look "Superior Aliens" we the human race had to to claw and fight our way to the top of the food chain over millions of years and yes we're very good at killing. So what?! But now the "Superior Aliens" conveniently forget the competition is not over and decide to nip things in the bud by "pacifying" or exterminating humanity. Just a tad hypocritical don't you think??

Re: Sexual Orientation=Psych Lim? I think it would also depend on what part of the world the character spends alot of his/her time. While being gay might night be a problem in say NYC or SF, being in Kabul under the Taliban would be a different story.

Re: How about this sci-fi battle.. Jedi Predator anyone?????

Re: Old School, Yesterday's Heroes I like this, I really really like this.
