I find in my own home games I draw inspiration and ideas from other RPGs that I port across into my home games. eg NPCs, maps, sometimes simple mechanics, ship designs etc. Does anyone else do that same and if so which games ?

I'm really lucky. Here where I live in the UK there is a local game store that is also a distributor that has an extensive range of Traveller and other games. https://www.dungeonland.co.uk/home/search?keywords=Traveller

Well at least they had one but its lost in amongst that lot. They do seem to have a real mix of games though including some i would have thought were not as popular as Traveller.

Id certainly go for this. Its something that always ends up just being forgotten about but its so important for bringing alien worlds to life.

Happy New Year to you all ! Hope its a great one with lots of Travelling :cool:

I love this. Its always bugged me that the basic good old jump drive is the "only option". I love the idea of tech going in different directions and creating some very distinct designs, ideas etc. Id love for their to be everything from different jump drives, different FTL options etc. Im not...

I would love to see those as im trying to create something similar to use for my own writing and its not looking too great at the minute

That software looks amazing. I was trying to see if there was a "free" try before you buy option but couldn't see it. Is it as good as it looks ?

Well i learned something new today. I didn't even know ice hockey was a thing in the UK. I really need to get out more.

This would be so useful for creating NPCs etc. My only reservation is would session zero play out differently. For me that group dynamic sat around the table and bouncing ideas, laughing at peoples rolls and then seeing where the story might go with the characters slowly coming together is part...

Thats a shame but thanks for the headsup

Are you still looking ? Depending on when and how its being run eg online etc i could be interested.

I'm very much in agreement. I feed loads of ideas to he players in the form of news articles, random rumours etc and then see what they bite down on. Occasionally I throw in a "quest giver" type patron but most of the time its free form.

We actually used that as a conversation topic at the table when looking around for ideas to explore in relation to the character.

Hiya - i would too. Those were his words and further expanded by the other players around the table. I think with the ongoing dialogue from this post and interaction via messages we are pulling it back from the total radicalisation however we do still have some very questionable acts of violence...
