Futureworld scenario?

Recommended Posts

While we are waiting for Nick Middleton's scenario to be published as a monograph by Chaosium, can I ask if anyone remembers a scenario published either in the Space gamer or Different Worlds. The Future World scenario was about a safari park world populated by robot animals. Can someone supply any more information?

It was in Spacegamer magazine, issue #60. The adventure was called Robot Safari, a Futureworld scenario about characters winning a contest and getting to hunt robotic animals on a "safari world".

Things go about as you'd expect, with a few surprises of course. I've always found the adventure odd in that it didn't really seem to have much connection to the background in the Futureworld book, which I've always wanted to read more about.

Speaking of the Spacegamer magazine, if you ever stumble across issue #64, with the Big Lizzie adventure, it's worth getting. It was made for Boot Hill or Wild West, but easily converts to BRP.

I'm glad that I wasn't imagining the scenario or confusing it with a scenario for another system. Thank you for sorting that out for me.

The Big Lizzie adventure, was it inspired bythe movie Valley of Gwangi?http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065163/

It looks like the scenario was inspired by the cover of Space Gamer #54.
