Thanks! ;-) Yeah well, Word... works... It is a pain in the ass to use if it goes beyond text and placing some images inbetween, but it... works... somehow... Should have thought about using Indesign before starting to work on it but I don't know Indesign and I know Word... so after 50 pages and...

Hi, thank you very much! :) Actually I own Word 2010 and Acrobat 9... so ... I just saved the Word document as a PDF with the right settings :) Ok I minorly edited the PDF in Acrobat afterwards, but that is basically it. If you are asking about design or anything, I did all that myself... well...

Yeah I get that, and I think that is pretty much the way most people play... So basically what you would want is to scratch any kind of permanent or final/terminal consequences? I mean enslavement for example can be pretty much final... What I'm basically saying is, that I as a player really...

I'm definitely with Risewild on the unfairness of the situation and the poll, but still I have to ask just a few questions... How would you suggest to become immune to permadeath in P&P RPGs? With an actual reload function? Like everyone hops back in time as soon as someone dies and they try...

I'm (still) in! ;)

Hi! edited the original post... see there ;-) That's great to hear! :D And you're welcome... But WTF did they do?? ... don't tell me they pushed the red button... ^.^ As soon as you think to have a good impression of the system and how everything works out for you and your players, I'd be more...

Hi Mazdar, sorry I didn't write back yet, life's been busy lately... unfortunately also too busy for writing stuff, but I'll just link you what I wrote before revising the whole system to version 2. it should mostly compatiblebe still, though I will probably change many things to be more...

awesome! :D

My point still stands ;-) But yeah I get what you mean. But it still depends on your playstyle. I do encourage my players to co-shape the world around them. They don't have to ask whether there is a mug or not, they just describe grabbing one from that table and smashing it on that guy's head. I...

Erm... for me that's part of the roleplaying... Why do you need a karma system for that? Or did I get you wrong? Affecting the world is why I enjoy PnP RPGs way more than Computer RPGs. The GM can reshape the world organically and completely realistically according to the actions of the...

That's what I feel as well... In my opinion PnP systems have to be really simple with only the most essential rules, like Fate, and focus on storytelling or they have to be fleshed out and focus on detail. Nothing in between... There is no good compromise between the two I think. If you have a...

The good thing about PnP: Written rules are just suggestions! WE make the rules as we play! If you like your vault dwellers to be deathclaw scientists with a spleen for romantic picknicking, go for it! :D

I like the layout... some pretty cool ideas there! :D But I think it is pretty condensed... a lot of room for more in that system...

In general I tried to include all Fallout lore somehow, but the main problem with translating a computer game setting to PnP is that in computer games a lot of things, if not most, are single instances of ides someone had, usually localized to one ingame site with many loose ends to fill for...

Hehe, sounds like a cool experiment. Tell me how it went when it is all over. :D And thanks for the compliments! Ahh robots... yeah. sure I'll see what I can do. Any models in particular? I have a huge list of models that appeared in the games that I'd want to have an entry for... Floating Eye...
