Title: Outpost World
Post by: Jgamer on November 25, 2004, 10:16:07 AM
Well, you've probably seen i like RPG games right? They include pen and paper ones, so i tought about making one out of my favorite game, outpost 2.
Well, would anybody here be willing to play with me? Or at least give me some random ideas about what to place?

Uhh, how would we play with you if it's pen and paper?

(And don't let that question kill the idea)

pen and paper rpg is not like a true video game, it's run entirely on our imagination.
Well, i only got the idea to do it and a few sketches of what the new colony this game will be run into will be, but i'd like to know what you guy would like to see in it.
One thing i plan to do is to give a better view on savant computer's newfound "feelings"
well, to help you understand what a pen and paper rpg is, here (http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/jschantz/Caravan-4.html) is the link to the irc log of a session of rpg.
[edit] Oh, as a minor clarification, i plan on running it on forum based form

Yup. Well, in a moment i'll have the setting .txt complete. I'll be using a rules sistem, a video-game has its rules right? Well, i'll be using ones from FFRPG (http://www.returnergames.com/biki), but first, i'll have you think of what sort of poeple you'd llike to play. As soon as i get the file about the setting complete i'll post it in the file forum

Now, in an RPG game you're like, an actor in a movie, with the difference that you make your own script.
Well, if anybody wants to join, i'd like to ask a few things:
The name of the character
His phisical description
His past
What he does for a living (he's a janitor in the CC, a top scientist of an advanced lab?)
What colony he's from
Did he had his genes altered? Is he a savant computer?

If you'd like, I could create a separate/new forum for you to use for this game if it becomes reality.

Sounds pretty good! :)

That sounds great! I think that you should be able to pick the Era too. (New Terra: Pre-Blight/Post-Blight; Post-New Terra, etc.) That might require more than one forum though...

heh... just slow down a little, i'm still barely finished with the post-blight era.
If any of those novella writers out there are willing to help me make a setting for during and pre-blight i'd appreciate
