I think the only way I would play TMNT now is with Savage Worlds. I grew up with the Paladium game but the only fun we ever got out of it was making characters. The rest was all a blur of confusion. Those rules were as clear as lead-lined concrete.
I think the thing that got us with the Paladium rules were the contradictions. There are a few places where the rules contradict themselves in that rulebook. Otherwise, the game was awesome.
Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)

ReplyDeleteThese are for miniatures skirmish, but the Rifts kickstarter has me thinking TMNT would be fun that way too.
ReplyDeleteBut rereading the original Palladium rules, they're not terrible. As long as you don't add in vehicles or anything.
