Aeon Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 Mmm, hard question, I'll play of ST anything. But when push comes to shove -TrinityL5R7th SeaBut loads of other games are well worth playing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILL Posted November 2, 2001 Author Share Posted November 2, 2001 Personally I'll have a go at anything once (stop sniggerig at the back!)....I usually GM games through - so this is what I GM (in order of preference)1) Trinity2) Known World (home made fantasy game, based on ST)3) Vampire: TM (although Ive lost interest in recent years)4) Noir (gangster pulp game)As for playing:1) Aberrant2) Known World (home made fantasy game - we have 2 gms for this, me and Senior Mal)3) Star Trek4) D&D 3rd ed (long story.......)Out of all Trinity is by far my favourite game, followed by Known World / Aberrant a joint second.These three rock!

Senior Mal Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 For me its still got to be Vampire (If only I could find some young innocents to ply my trade to) after that probably Tinity.I ST Aberrant mostly so I don't know what its like to play. I'm also not sure I've worked out the best way to run the world. Whether to go for gritty angst or spangly superheroes (and before anyone says anything its very difficult to get a mix) So far I've gone more for the gritty angst types (my group seem to be the cynical types)I've also got a large horror collection like Cthulu, Heaven & Earth, Kult, Delta Green etc but haven't managed to build up the nerve to try and GM one. Horror deserves to be done right after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILL Posted November 2, 2001 Author Share Posted November 2, 2001 BaaaDon't let Senior Mal fool you - he already knows how to do horror and Aberrant right...But he's right though - we are a cynical group that he has the pleasure of GM'ing for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILL Posted November 2, 2001 Author Share Posted November 2, 2001 just a quick thought....heh, its a bit of a (dangerous?) ego boost when one of your players ranks your game along with their all time favourites....heh heh, Mal, you may one day come to regret this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeon Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 Oh, he will regret that! Always moan to the ST, never admit that he is correct, and always, always, say how it should have been done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeon Posted December 6, 2001 Share Posted December 6, 2001 What is "Known World" about?Any thought on giving me a copy - or has it not reached the print room yet? LoL. :xmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILL Posted December 6, 2001 Author Share Posted December 6, 2001 Heh....Known World is a fantasy setting that Senior Mal and I have written based on some rules that circulated the net about a year and a half ago called 'Fantasy Using Trinity' - I _think_ they were by Nikolai Lemke (sp?).Basically we have setting, rules, magic system, combat systems, character creation, 'big book 'o bad guys' and a massive 1st campaign sorted (kinda)...and its going to be in print format.... when Mal and I can sort all the various notes, mutiple files (Photoshop, Word, Publisher et al), back of fag packet scribblings etc and turn it into some sense that people other then we can understand....soooo..... yep, theres gonna be a version available. In fact, Im thinking of setting up a website for it and giving it away, but probably early next year. Europnet eats my spare time at the moment.You could quiz Mal about it for some interesting info through - he's ST'd the first 'third' of the campaign already, and has a 'hands-on' idea of how it works, as a player (me played in game!) it went really, really well Ill dig out some of the introduction stuff and post it here in a bit for you.

Joseph Posted December 6, 2001 Share Posted December 6, 2001 Right you are, Admin. It is on Nikolaj's page. I did some digging and found the URL after some unsuccessful tries. The page can be found at:http://home1.stofanet.dk/nikolaj/index.htmHope that helps.-Joseph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILL Posted December 6, 2001 Author Share Posted December 6, 2001 Cheers Joseph.....Although I've still got the pdf downloads from the site, we heavily modified things for the Known World.In fact, i've just been skimming through what we have, and its a couple of hundred pages of stuff.........I'd forgot how much we had done More to come on this as I tidy the documents up and pdf 'em Glad you found the link tho9ugh - i've wanted to place a link to 'based (loosly) on these rules' in the final version of the book.Im fairly certain the map we used in the game was done by Steve Otte of aeonsociety.org fame but I could be wrong.

Rush Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 Lessee...Aberrant (wonderful!)NeoTech2 (second edition of a Swedish cyberpunk game; the best in its genre on the market, imo).Eon 2 (see notes for NeoTech2, supply "cyberpunk" with "fantasy"; same realistic system as N2 which makes the act of letting your sword stay in the sheath a matter of survival)KULT (´coz we Swedes rule)Fading Suns (Maybe the best gaming world ever)Shadowrun (Because I´ve played it so goddamn much...)...the list goes on...

FredrikSvanberg Posted January 31, 2002 Share Posted January 31, 2002 Hey admin, for your homemade fantasy game, how did you deal with "character classes" and magic? Those were always causing problems for me when I was making mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILL Posted January 31, 2002 Author Share Posted January 31, 2002 Well....The Known World system works around points allocation ala White Wolf systems.Your starting points allow you to invest in Art (magic / arcane) skills (like disciplines or Modes I suppose) and a slew or combat and martial skills (theres loads, some have 3 levels and a lot have 5 levels, with many many different effects).Where you come from in the Known World, and your cultures beliefs play heavily on your ultimate 'career' choices - but I structured the system with Senior Mal (my partner in crime for the Known World) so it was kinda 'flat' and that there are no set career classes as such.There are certainly ability groups based on allegiances (which also sometimes place restrictions or benefits on what Art and Combat skills you can have at character creation).For example, you can have a character that throws everything into Art or everything into Combat - or neither, or a multitude of combinations of all the above.Its quite flexible really That help?More info wanted?
