This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.

That looks a lot like the Eastman and Laird style.
ReplyDeleteI always had a weakness for Mutants Down Under . I mean... giant riding insects. That's my jam.
ReplyDeleteclash bowley it is Eastman and Laird.
ReplyDeleteI loved Road Hogs. Played it all summer long one year when I was a googly-moogly teenager. Fave character was a rhino named Rocco The Impregnable (because of the armor, see).
ReplyDeleteOh! That's the cover to Road Hogs! Got that! Got all the TMNT game stuff, actually! I thought this was a new ATB 2 illo. Until Mark Whitley mentioned Road Hogs it didn't click!
ReplyDeleteTMNTAOS is the only old game I still own and would still play.
ReplyDeleteGood times

ReplyDeleteIt's got a place of honor on my much-reduced game shelf. Transdimensional is one of my favorite game books of all time.
I have a complete collection too. Same as Benjamin Baugh, it's all on the one shelf I display.

ReplyDeleteTransdimentional is freaking brilliant, Benjamin Baugh! :D
ReplyDeleteYeah, the system's a bit on the clunky side, but this game just does some things so elegantly that no one else can. :D
aw yiss TMNTAOS! Let me third the recommendations for Transdimensional TMNT.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to use the system to run a Wacky Races/Redline game, where the players create custom aliens and participate in a massive race.
ReplyDeleteRaodhogs provided the rules I needed for my Carter's Cannonball TMNT game. The main rule was that I had to run it RAW - can't invent any rules, can't change any rules. I can repurposed rules - Nightbane tables to determine what happens when you inject a mutant hound dog with Frankenstein resurectuon syrum - but no fudging and no hand waving.
ReplyDeleteIt was a hoot.
The only thing I took some liberties with was the writup for the Cannonball itself.

The setup was, it is 1985, you're on the run in a Winnebago, everyone is trying to capture or kill you, and there's a bunch of big black vans chasing you right now .
And you have to get to the other side of the country in time for the Teen Wolf premier.
Michael Hansen go for it. I posted some AP at rpgnet under 'gonzo roadtrip' if you want a taste of how it played out. Lots of bees.
ReplyDeleteThat is just brilliant! :O
