Freelance Traveller - Doing It My Way - Conversion Rules - Travelling Light: A Risus Conversion for Traveller Travelling Light: A Risus Conversion for Traveller by S. John Ross with Christopher Thrash Editor’s note: This article originally appeared on the Freelance Traveller web site in 1999, and was reprinted, lightly edited into this form, in the November/December 2012 issue of the magazine. Risus is a complete Role Playing Game (RPG) designed to provide an “RPG Lite” for those nights when the brain is too tired for exacting detail. Risus is especially valuable to GMs assembling a quick convention game, or any late-night beer-and-pretzels outing. Character Creation Characters are defined by Cliché (sometimes several of them). Clichés are defined in terms of Dice (by which we mean the ordinary six-sided kind). Characters are created by naming and describing them, and listing their Clichés.

One Sentence - True stories, told in one sentence. Mtg Random card - A fast random card of Magic: The Gathering game! Risus optional rules Coloured*Skies House rules (’n’ stuff) for Risus: The Anything RPG Risus is the elegant, rules-lite, omni-utilitarian RPG created by S. John Ross. THE GAME SYSTEMDrama diceAre awarded at the end of each session. Roll as many dice. The GM seeds the drama pool at the beginning of any adventure, say with ten pips. Unused pips at the end of any session carryover to the next session, doubled. Credit: thanks to SJohn for his comments about this option, as originally presented. The GM sets the TN in the usual manner but also requires a specified number of wins. Source: adapted from WW’s Mage: The Ascension. Frex: Rupert, Nightblade (4), wants to lasso a chandelier, swing across a hall, somersault through a stained glass window, and land in the saddle of his horse, ready to make a getaway. Rupert is going to have to pump—or draw on some drama dice (cf.), if the GM allows such—to have any real prospect of success. Comment: adding five for an extra feat seems like a lot. Source: adapted from R.

How could the universe expand faster than the speed of light? That seems impossible! In science fiction universes, traveling the galaxy is a snap – just engage the “warp” or “hyperspeed” drive, and off you go, cruising the cosmos at several times the speed of light. But back in reality, we’ve all been taught that the speed of light is a strict traffic law that can’t be broken. This is true, but slightly misleading. Einstein’s theory of special relativity, first published in 1905, asserted that the speed of light is a constant (300 million meters per second), no matter who measures it. The speed of light affects us more than we realize – it helps us understand the difference between cause and effect. Now that we have a taste for Einstein’s theory, we know that baseballs don’t go faster than the speed of light. Right after the Big Bang, the universe had a monstrous growth-spurt called inflation. This ultra-fast growth seems to contradict what we’ve just discussed, but it makes sense if you understand the distinction between expansion and motion.

Review of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs - RPGnet RPG Game Index Chances are you've never heard of the Xenozoic, that as-yet-to-come geologic era when every creature that ever existed once again roams the Earth, and when what's left of mankind cruises the countryside in retrofitted 1940s and '50s Cadillacs. But if it sounds familiar, that's because it's the setting of a comic book series you might have heard of: Cadillacs & Dinosaurs. Technically, "Cadillacs & Dinosaurs" (abbreviated hereafter as "C&D") is the nickname for a short-lived comics series titled "Xenozoic Tales." The series may have only lasted 14 issues and ended mid-story, but it enjoyed a surprising amount of marketing success for an alternative comic. Then, of course, there was "C&D: The Roleplaying Game," written by none other than Frank Chadwick of "Space: 1889" fame. C&D is a 144-page, magazine-sized paperback published in 1990. Setting C&D is set 450 years in the future after a planet-wide disaster destroyed most of civilization. There also is plenty of political intrigue. Content

Mage: The Sterile Version | Mob | United | Malcolm | Sheppard Originally published at Mob | United | Malcolm | Sheppard. Please leave any comments there. Mage: The Ascension is on my mind again. I’m planning to run a game at Anime North where the characters’ objective is to assassinate the Second Coming of Christ. I decided to continue fooling with the Dirty Version. I read a bunch of RPGNet threads about updating Ascension which were . . . well, we’ll get to that. I love Ascension. The Magic(k) Test That doesn’t mean it was an entirely successful game. Has this person alluded to the fact that Mage: The Ascension’s magic rules make no goddamn sense? If you play Ascension 2nd or Revised for any length of time you’ll immediately notice that the magic rules are — and I usually hold this term in low esteem — “broken.” This isn’t immediately obvious if you don’t play the game regularly. When the discussion doesn’t address the fact that Ascension’s mechanical bones are rotten, it often means the participants may be into it for the conversation over play.

In 1976, the original Bunnies & Burrows, by B. And now, in 2004, it has been converted to Risus: The Anything RPG, By S. B&B character should be created in the normal Risus way.
