Next GFF PBP RPG. Exalted or Shadowrun? YOU decide.

Shadowrun sounds a far more interesting proposition given it's real-world groundings, especially as I'll more than likely just be reading this one rather than playing it, it'll be a distinct change of tone from the DnD I imagine. I hope someone still plays as a medieval bard though, possibly with guns built into their guitar case Robert Rodriguez style.

So yeah, voting Shadowrun in expectation of a gun-slinging mariachi.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Not chat brigade, geek mafia.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

No, it's not.

And why is it everytime I go messing with thread titles and polls round here Skills gets the credit?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Pssh, Skills has to run his plans past the rest of the Team Awesome Events Commitee before shit gets done and even then it's normally something some chat-troll suggested. My alterations have far more panache and are made in a split second, with no thought to the consequences...


...And we generally operate in almost completely opposite halves of the day, chances are if it happened daytime GMT, I did it. If it wa during the night it was him.

All I ask is for recognition of my incredibly childish behaviour.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

USE THE MAGIC BUTTON.

Ironically, my one foray into actual DnD ended up with everyone having immortal characters from the er, having immortal characters expansion pack (Came out about the same time as the Hollow Earth stuff if memory serves) and got very silly, very quickly. Need a million xp to level up? you get one xp for killing an innocent civilian so I'll find a city with a million inhabitants...

We then transalted those characters into Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, keeping their immortal status. It saved a lot of wear and tear on the dice although my mate's upscaled version of Castle Drakenfels was amusing with each harpy that's supposed to attack you outside replaced by a large group of greater demons.

I fear that my childish outlook on life has been with me rather a long time.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Go with Games Workshop's Advanced Hero Quest. Greatest board game ever.

FELIPE NO

Advanced Hero Quest had a lot more depth to it but was pretty much a dungeon crawler. The random dungeon generator was cool though.

Could always go with Advanced Space Crusade instead, same basic thing with Space Marine scouts, bit more like Space Hulk (Which itself was an incredible game).

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I'd actually already gathered up everything I needed for HeroQuest (hell of a coincidence) but I'll grab Advanced and see whether it's significantly more problematic.

Advanced used sections of floor tiles rather than a set board, had a bit more character customisation, more depth to the characters in general, allowed you to recruit henchmen and had Skaven as the primary bad guys, for the built in campaign at least although the rules were all there for every other kind of beasty you might wish to infest a dungeon with.

Jesus, this is probably the longest poll in the history of Gamingforce. You get all your votes in the first two days and last day of any given poll, there's never any reason to have one open for longer than four days. Especially given that in this case, you probably don't want someone who's waited a week and a half to register a vote playing in your campaign anyway otherwise each fight's going to take three months.

Silly bear.

I'm going to put my name forward but somewhere down the bottom of the list and if Pang's not managed to kill Bob by the time I reach the top of the list I'll let myself slide until Bob either get's cut down in his prime or achieves nirvana and becomes one with the universe.
