    Weirdest RPGs evah

    You should probably watch a couple of sessions before deciding if "it's the dream" ;)

    Weirdest RPGs evah

    Someone I'd never heard of emailed me out of the blue and asked me if I'd run JAGS Wonderland online for their group. We just completed "Season 2" of the game (it's on YouTube, they stream it):

    GURPS vs BESM, which would you choose and why?

    JAGS is very different than GURPS (or Hero)--but it is definitely informed by them. 1. It is supposed to support some of the grittiness that GURPS can provide. 2. It is supposed to provide the scalability that Hero can (GURPS, for us, didn't do what we wanted from a Supers system) (...

    The RPGs I have played and what I think of them

    I didn't have much interaction but I did think warmly of him.

    I'm familiar with the YAGS guy too . . .

    The RPGs I have played and what I think of them

    My random-inscrutable food RPG never really took off tho

    Ouch--the old site. www.jagsrpg.com That should do it.

    The RPGs I have played and what I think of them

    Well, if you haven't looked at it, JAGS (Just Another Gaming System) has basically the same origin story. (www.jagsrpg.com)

    The RPGs I have played and what I think of them

    I'm curiously waiting for the YAGGS writeup, tbh. This is good stuff.

    Space Guns!

    Some lasers, a rail-gun sniper's rifle, an assault carbine, a blaster (that looks to me like a space-pirate's weapon!), and a modern-tech shotgun and SMG. I may do some more but this rounds out his "starting price list" request.

    Space Guns!

    A friend is working on a space-game rules-set and wanted some starting guns for PCs to be able to purchase. I'm teaching myself 3d modeling so I said I'd do some and see where we wound up. The weapons tech is modern-day-ish with a lot of caseless ammo and stuff like safeties that interface with...

    GM preparation, how do you do it?

    For adventure games I make some dungeons or locations--usually doing maps with sketchy notes for them and then turn the PCs loose with some kind of overarching story-line of some sort (like the PCs are on a cross country journey to a magic academy or the PCs live in a post apocalypse town and...

    [Supers] Background game

    This is fantastic--as I said, my name for the duo was Pear Shaped and Bell Bottom--but I really like how you did this! Kudos!!

    My growing appeal for skill/point based RPG systems

    I was the opposite. I tolerated levels in D&D but found playing other, level-less, game systems preferable (playing or GMing). However, over time, and because of my experience enjoying computer games, I found that "leveling up" was something that I enjoyed and other players enjoyed. Leveling...

    My growing appeal for skill/point based RPG systems

    Has anyone ever sat down and talked with the murderhobo player? I mean--we never had problems with "pretty traditional supers"--but we certainly did have clashes over what was appropriate, etc. It's not a cure-all but saying "the bad guys kill people--the PCs are supposed to be pretty much the...

    My growing appeal for skill/point based RPG systems

    I didn't know about this--that's great! I usually try to give new players (and regular ones) a hand-out on the game that explains what the basic scenario is and gives them some examples of what characters would make sense for it. I also am very careful to state up-front expectations and...

    My growing appeal for skill/point based RPG systems

    I ran a JAGS Wonderland game streaming--we lost some of the audio and such--but it's complete and should be decently easy to follow. I can certainly answer any questions about it. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_mEkxRdIyPcUU7EGhpb4wzZmAmJ67AaZ I should really say more about it: I was...
