cjbowser Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I don't have the book yet, but just found out I'm tangentially mentioned in one of the scenarios. So far, I've been mentioned in both BRP Adventure books. First as an NPC in The Caravan in the first collection and then as a battle cry in Fools Rush In in the second collection. I'm still trying to decide if this is something to be proud of or not. Quote Various RPGs I've worked on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalaba Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 BOWS-AAARGHHH! Good war cry! Seriously, I would love for someone (contributers?) to put up a quick summary of the scenarios. It would make the difference between me rushing out to get it or putting it on my 'free shipping waiting list'.

seneschal Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 At least one of the scenarios was a tongue-in-cheek pulp adventure along the lines of the Brendan Fraser Mummy movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianaKen Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 My contribution, "The King,The Maiden, and the Mad Man of Las Islas de los Muertos" is a Golden Age of Piracy adventure involving a race for a lost treasure, evil pirates and possibly cannibals. I am starting to fear I may become the 'pirate guy', what with Arrrgh, Pirates, my two scenarios in Veni, Vidi, Vici, and this one in The River Terror and Other Tales.

seneschal Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 The eleven scenarios include fantasy, time travel, pulp, superhero, pirate, Weird War II, modern crime, and outer space adventures. So the monograph has a pretty broad spectrum of genres to choose from. Sadly, IndianKen's was the only straight historical scenario this time around. In the wake of BRP Rome I thought we might get more of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechashef Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) I just downloaded it and will start reading later today. A quick skim through indicates that there are some scenarios I'll find really useful. On the downside, it would have been nice for my name to have been spelt correctly ;-( . Though it is only wrong in the Table of Contents. Edited October 8, 2009 by Mechashef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalaba Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I was wondering if the Australian scenario was yours...:cool: Quote "Tell me what you found, not what you lost" Mesopotamian proverb __________________________________ Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechashef Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I was wondering if the Australian scenario was yours...:cool: I tried to make it generic enough that could be used in a range of medieval fantasy settings. There are some very interesting scenarios in the book. Even the ones that can't be adapted to my campaign will be useful when my group is short a player and we just want to do a one off.

JonHook Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I like how they published my maps in The River Terror. I hope folks enjoy my scenario, Operation: Mind Storm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechashef Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I like how they published my maps in The River Terror. I hope folks enjoy my scenario, Operation: Mind Storm. One of my friends who doesn't play BRP (actually he hasn't played any RPG for over a decade) is a WWII fan. I'm planning on using Mind Storm to try and get him back into the hobby.

JonHook Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 That's cool man. I only did some very light research on Rangers and WWII, so if he's a real buff of WWII I hope he doesn't find too many unbelievable flaws in my scenario. I was shooting for more fun and flash, and less historic realism. It's WWII with psionic powers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trifletraxor Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 On the downside, it would have been nice for my name to have been spelt correctly ;-( . Which one is yours?
