    How do characters "Level Up"?

    I think the D&D-habit is an issue to consider...particularly with younger players who might feel the game is a competitive rather than co-operative experience. What I found was fun for my players was to do a round or two of pure trading/transporting passengers at the end of a session. This...

    How do characters "Level Up"?

    This came up last night during a game session I was running. Skills can be increased using training time that takes place in terms of weeks (time spend in "jump" works very well for this as ship's computers can provide training simulations), meanwhile--I decided in my capacity as...

    Modern Nations and War Reflected in B5

    The Narn Regime would be an ideal setting for civil strife in the post-Crusade era. The religious zeal is certainly present (factions might be zealous and non-zealous respectively, or xenophobic and xeno-social). One might even be able to draw parallels between the Centauri and the Narn and...

    Modern Nations and War Reflected in B5

    Hope this isn't too tense a subject for the board, but I like my games to reflect real events in human history and real ethical quandaries we modern human beings based everyday. That said, using post-Crusade B5 factions and political players, how would you reflect the war, sectarian infighting...

    Judge Dredd: Various Shades of "Futsie"

    As it stands right now anyway, I'm leaning toward a plotline that makes "The Toy Man," as they call him, the tool of an unlawful robot that wants to put an end to the Justice Department's "Xmas" holiday, a day of mandatory gift-giving that temporarily reduces crime-rates and distributes...

    Judge Dredd: Various Shades of "Futsie"

    I had a feeling this sort of storyline might have been done before. It actually helps a lot as it means "futsies" have more range and depth to their insanity than indicated in the Judge Dredd rpg rules book. Because I don't have experience with the comic (my local store is going to have a...

    Judge Dredd: Various Shades of "Futsie"

    I'm coming from the position total naivety regard the Judge Dredd comics, however I very much want to GM the game and run a "Holiday" adventure for some gamer friends of mine. So here's two quandries I'm hoping seasoned readers of the comic might be able to help me out with: --Do the citizens...

    Anyone up for an online game?

    I've had it in mind to run a chat-based rpg for some time. Conan is currently peaking my interest (I have several notions for campaigns) so if anyone is interested you can get in touch with me here or through the private message system.

    Moloq and those that Follow Him

    I'm working up some campaign material on the Border Kingdom and I've come across the Brythunian city of Erdiu and the cult of Moloq. I've never read the story "The Voice of Moloq" and I'm not likely to get ahold of it, so I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this god and those...
