  1. When I still frequented All Flesh Must Be Eaten's forums, one of the posters talked about running a game where the PCs were zombies, but not letting them know they were zombies. Anytime they ran into a survivor, the GM always made it seem they were fighting fast zombies, that would jump out of no where and attack them. For their own equipment, he always mentioned that it appeared to be either broken or out of ammo for weapons. I kind of thought that was an interesting twist on the normal zombie apocalypse and have been meaning to write up something along the same lines to run at a con.
  2. Welcome to the forums! I have never seen anyone doing a game play video of Magic World, sorry. I'll keep a look out though!
  3. LOL! I'd say let's form an intervention squad, but I know they'll be back once they've gotten their fix!
  4. You are correct Nick, that's what the Kingmaker Adventure Path for Pathfinder does. It can be lots of fun or can be very tedious, depending on the players and GM!
  5. Thanks skoll, will check out the tool as well!
  6. I'd say include a few of them in BRP Space, then make a separate product with more once you've got enough plans to make it worth while. The few that you include in BRP Space would be common ones, like in Traveler, the Scout, System Defense Boat, Free Trader, etc. Not those exact plans, but something similar.
  7. I really like the blueprint version of the deck plans as well! There's just something appealing to me about that design over the black(gray) and white one!
  8. Campaign Cartographer is very nice, but has a learning curve to it. While the latest version is much easier to use than previous ones, it still can give you moments of WTF! I think it's a great program, but it's not for everyone! I haven't played around with Dungeonographer yet.
  9. I say money system, especially if the GM can set prices/values. I know from a programming standpoint, that is more work, but being able to customize the monetary system for the game is very important to me. A category monetary system to me tends to be too open for interpretation. I've never really cared for the category system of pricing mainly because to a poor person, an average priced item would be different than what it would be to a rich person.
  10. I haven't run a space game in a while so haven't used a computer in the past. That being said, I'd probably have the deck plan on my computer and reference it for drawing on a battle mat. As far as drawing plans myself, I'll have to look at using Sketchup. I've used it for working on a pseudo blueprint for a gaming table and for brainstorming a modular sewer system for my games, so I'm familiar with it. Ian draws some impressive plans! Love the site and will spend more time poking around on it! Thanks for posting the link!
  11. I thought it was a very cool setting and enjoyed the game the few times I played. Course, post apoc is one of my favorite genres for reading, watching movies/shows and gaming!
  12. Shocked me a little when I first landed here, but I think it's a good change from the older forum. I like the new design.
  13. As far as I know, Dundjinni is no longer available for purchase. It's good program, but might not be what you want to use. Checking out deckplans at the sites mentioned is good advice. If you really wanted a mapping program, while it has a steep learning curve, Profantasy's Campaign Cartographer might be the way to go. It is a CAD based program and allows for to draw outside terrain, town layouts, building layouts etc.
  14. Yeah I got a chance to play around a little with the sheet and so far it looks great!
  15. Harn is an cool setting, by default low magic, but the last time I looked at it was in the 80s, so not sure what kind of changes have taken place since then. The GM that I had basically had the magic be ritual style, so most spells tended to take a while to cast. Think more along the lines of the Conan movie when the two wizards were fighting each other to open/close the mouth door in the underground temple. More that kind of magic, instead of wizards throwing spells at each other ever few seconds.
  16. I always add house rules or other additions to the core rule set of any game. I'm never satisfied enough by any game system to just go with the RAW version. But that's just me.
  17. I've listened to the first two episodes, interesting so far!
  18. I haven't had time to download this yet. I hope to get it done this weekend!
  19. Your application, pansophy looks really great! I look forward to seeing more about it and would be happy to help test if you need another body!
  20. GenCon is outside my budget range, but there is a good chance I'm going to Necronomicon, because it's right in my neck of the woods! Not sure what I'm running, but leaning toward a 3 inch version of Car Wars, but I might run some BRP if I get inspired enough.
  21. Hey, if you do look at it, would you mention what you think? I'm consideirng buying it, but with the BRP kit. More importantly, if you feel it handles Role Master well, then it should be able to handle anything else well also!
  22. I prefer face to face. One group meets on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month, and currently we're running episodic games where 1 GM will run a set number of sessions, then once we've finished that GMs story line, we move on to a different story line, with a possibility that the GM will changes. Another group meets every other Wednesday night where I'm running my weird west game, and finally the last group meets on the 4th Saturday of the month and I'm running my fantasy game. I've considered running an online game, but currently really don't have plans to do so.
