[Bit of Fun] Guess the RPG from a screenshot of a page spread!

[xanther]

That's easy. Aftermath!

 

[xanther]

Jesus Christ on a pogo stick. Check please...

To be fair to Aftermath! if you flow charted out all the options and things for many modern RPGs they would be just as complicated....enormously so if feats that alter the flow were fully included.

 

[xanther]

Module from Top Secret SI?

That's my guess. Looks very much like Top Secret art-wise and uses one of TSRs favorite module fonts/

 

[Baulderstone]

This is a tough crowd to stump, but I will give it a shot. I edited this one to remove the title from the footer.

 

[Jon_45]

The space ship's from Spacemaster 2nd edition.

Got it!

 

[Bunch]

That's my guess. Looks very much like Top Secret art-wise and uses one of TSRs favorite module fonts/

The main reason I shifted to a HERO product is it mentions the map using hexes not squares.

Totally true. I can make you a much more complicated flowchart for some of the best games out there...

Also, I recently made a joke table explaining the game of stone, paper, scissors. It had three columns and 10 rows...
"How much space it takes to present in a somewhat-graphic manner" is a poor indicator how complicated the game really is.


I'll try to get to this game when I'm home.

So true.

My "issue" with Aftermath! was more the decimal damage (as in a weapon doses 1.4 times you strength which is on d100 type scale) and the need for a table to know when you go based on your AP. In practice very slow, but man I loved the "feel" of it all. This kind of crunchy bottom up detail was very much a thing in mid-late 80's game design even Gary went that way after he left TSR.

Okay. This is the game that was referred to me when I first came to the Pub looking for a game like this:

 

[Baulderstone]

Looks like Waste World

That's the one.

 

[Simlasa]

And another.

That's Cadwallon!

 

[Bunch]

That's Cadwallon!

Correct!

 

[PolarBlues]

Looks like Waste World

Yeah. the illustations don't tell me anything but the font is the headings is a match for Waste World.

Whatever it is, it looks awesome!

 

[Simon Hogwood]

Okay. This is the game that was referred to me when I first came to the Pub looking for a game like this:

Flying Circus?

 

[Nobby-W]

Red Markets?

No. Cyberpunk 2013.

 

[brettmb]

No. Cyberpunk 2013.

I thought it looked familiar.

 

[Skywalker]

Okay. This is the game that was referred to me when I first came to the Pub looking for a game like this:

I want to say Far West!

 

[Dyrnwyn]

No. Cyberpunk 2013.

I had a strong feeling it was a Cyberpunk book due to the graphic design, but couldn't place it exactly.

 

[Skywalker]

I want to say Far West!

Nope. As a clue, this RPG is considered not to be an RPG on TheRPGSite.

 

[Skywalker]

Last one from me. This spread is more a textual based one.

Trade dress looks like something from the D&D 3/3.5 line, but otherwise no idea.

 

[Skywalker]

It’s a 3rd party setting book for D&D5e.

Tenra Bansho Zero!

Tenra Bansho Zero!

Bingo!

 

[AsenRG]

Tenra Bansho Zero!

Yeah, you both beat me to it! I was planning to post a page from it when I get home!

I almost posted from it myself as well!

 

[Skarg]

Millennium's End?

Nope.

Module from Top Secret SI?

Nope.

Good guess (though does Top Secret use hexes or square grids?), but no.

It's not TSR, though.
