    Looks good, but I havent RPG'd in over 10 years. This would be a good opportunity to get back in.

      I never played an RPG. Pen and paper, I mean.
      I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

        It's way better than computers IMHO. It's nice that the comp games do the combat modifiers and time keeping, but its much better with friends and a GM who can really flesh out a campaign.

        Like I said, I 'd like to give this one a try. Maybe with some peeps from Poly

          I saw this book in store on monday. 37€ for nothing. didn't buy it. nothing new in it, just the knowledge we allready have converted to roleplaying format.
          the book had first a short introduction to the story, then describtion of the planet, next was faction intruductions. then techs and secret projects. last was somethings about roleplaying and about GURPS system. sad to see idea like this go to waste.

            I've seen it in the store too, and I have the same impression. Of course, this is from but a small leaf-through on my part, so there may be hidden gems there.

            The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.

              Just out of interest, what does "RPG" stand for in a cyber-sex situation?

              I hope it doesn't stand for "Rocket Propelled Grenade".

                I'm guessing that it stands for the same thing as in this context; roleplaying game.

                  jep. I too only paged it thru. yes, those leader introductions could hide some hidden gems.
                  the one I looked in most detail was of course the Spartan Federation. our Col. Santiago had some lost siplings and belonged to a street gang when she was young.....

                    That sounds in line with the Ely novels.....anyone know how the timeline of each compares?
