If 1 Fallout: Pencil and Paper RPG was exact an adaptation of the SPECIAL designed to be flexible in its rule system as I can make, I usually only add structure.

For rules junkies, there are plenty of tables and things to keep you going. I even encourage you to make your own tables for things like critical hits, perhaps using mine as a guide. For those more prone to loose, formless role-playing, feel free to discard tables, rolls, or whatever else suits your fancy. The idea behind this game is to have fun, so if you find something doesn't work for your group, please feel free to get rid of it. I’ve omitted some of the Tactics rules, or changed others slightly, because they are rules that belong more in a tactical combat simulator than a roleplaying game and would probably unbalance a PnP RPG. For example, I kept the original Fallout 2 idea that ghouls could wear the same armor that humans could, and I changed the way that First Aid and Doctor skills were used in combat (healing people completely in 1 round would have seriously unbalanced the game). I’m sure diligent players will note other changes as well; please keep in mind that I’ve carefully considered those rules and the spirit of a tabletop RPG, and adapted them accordingly.

    Races Human Adaptable (2): Start with a bonus Edge you qualify for at character creation. Ghoul Immune to Disease (1): Ghouls are immune to all diseases that impact humans. Immune to Radiation (2): As creatures born of radiation, ghouls are immune to the danger of radiation, experiencing it as a warm glow. This sense allows them to identify and locate radiation sources with a Notice roll. Radiation Healing (2): Ghouls in an area of standard background radiation (such as most of the wastes) roll natural healing rolls normally. In an area of moderate radiation, they roll a natural healing roll once per day. In an area of high radiation, they roll natural healing rolls once per hour. Ugly (-1): Most wastelanders find ghouls to be hideous creatures, and they regularly face prejudice even in the most accepting communities. They gain the Ugly hindrance. Weak (-2): The degraded body of a ghoul isn't as strong as an average human. They suffer a -1 penalty to all Strength rolls, including melee damage. Robot Construct (6): +2 to recover from being Shaken, ignore one level of wound modifiers, don't breathe, and are immune to disease and poison. Cannot heal naturally, but can be repaired by a Tech roll (ignoring the golden hour). Mods (1): Can't use cyberware, but may purchase and install robot modifications to alter their form and purpose. Environmental Weakness (Electricity, -1): Robots suffer +4 additional damage from electrical attacks, and have a -4 penalty to resist other electrical effects. Outsider Hindrance (Major, -2) Robots are considered to be property throughout the wastes, even those that have developed self-awareness over the years.

    In the crowded streets of Mogadishu sits a downed Blackhawk surrounded by a tyrannical warlord and his drug-crazed warriors. In the villages of Iraq lurk insurgents led by the ruthless al-Qaeda. In the arid desert of the Bakaw Valley is a terrorist training camp. In the mountains of Tora Bora lurks Osama bin Laden and his fanatical followers. Against these desperate foes are the most advanced armies ever created. But after the smoke from the smart bombs has cleared, it’s the infantry who must go in and finish the job. These are today’s threats. These are Modern Ops. Modern Ops lets you recreate the battles of the modern world, from regular mili- tary operations to special forces actions in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Soviet Union, and more. You’ll find complete troop lists for today’s combat- ants, including vehicles and aircraft, as well as our trade- mark Savage Tales and random Events that make every battle a surprise. Modern Ops is a complete miniatures skir- mish game. The Savage Worlds roleplaying game is NOT required.

    TIRIKÉLU Role-playing in the Land of the Petal Throne by Dave Morris Tirikélu Acknowledgements I’ve enjoyed thousands of hours with friends in the world of Tékumel. I’d like to thank them all, but especially those who have played and helped to shape these rules, namely: David Bailey, Gail Baker, Dermot Bolton, Patrick Brady, Robert Dale, Tim Harford, Nick Henfrey, Oliver Johnson, Ian Marsh, Roz Morris, Mark Pawelek, Frazer Payne, Gavin Reid, Mark Smith, Duncan Taylor, Mark Wilkinson and particularly, for having to contributed to this volume: Jack Bramah, Mark Wigoder Daniels, Steve Foster, Paul Mason, and Jamie Thomson Special thanks to Michael Watts for permission to use his illustration of the Temple of Hriháyal in Jakalla in the front matter and of the priest of Sárku and the Tinalíya for the cover of the print-on-demand edition. Other material There’s still no better top-level introduction to the world of Tékumel than Empire of the Petal Throne. But having read EPT you’re going to want more. And that’s why your next purchase should be the Tékumel Sourcebook. Try to get the Different Worlds edition if you can, as the original Gamescience printing is a crime against typography, but the main thing is to get hold of it. Every page contains enough ideas to fuel a campaign. My favourite history of Tsólyanu is Deeds of the Ever-Glorious. It’s a great read, packed with incidents and anecdotes that will add flavour to your characters’ conversations. More history books should be written this way.

  • Analysing Constraint Play in Digital Games 自製工坊：分析應用於數碼遊戲中的限制性玩法
    CITY UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG 香港城市大學 Workshops of Our Own: Analysing Constraint Play in Digital Games 自製工坊：分析應用於數碼遊戲中的限制性玩法 Submitted to School of Creative Media 創意媒體學院 In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 哲學博士學位 by Johnathan HARRINGTON September 2020 二零二零年九月 ABSTRACT Players are at the heart of games: games are only fully realised when players play them. Contemporary games research has acknowledged players’ importance when discussing games. Player-based research in game studies has been largely oriented either towards specific types of play, or towards analysing players as parts of games. While such approaches have their merits, they background creative traditions shared across different play. Games share players, and there is knowledge to be gleamed from analysing the methods players adopt across different games, especially when these methods are loaded with intent to make something new. In this thesis, I will argue that players design, record, and share their own play methods with other players. Through further research into the Oulipo’s potential contributions to games research, as well as a thorough analysis of current game studies texts on play as method, I will argue that the Oulipo’s concept of constraints can help us better discuss player-based design. I will argue for constraints by analysing various different types of player created play methods. I will outline a descriptive model that discusses these play methods through shared language, and analysed as a single practice with shared commonalities. By the end of this thesis, I will have shown that players’ play methods are often measured and creative.

  • TL7 Handguns
    Deep Web Secret Deep Web Secret Automatic Pistols These weapons use Guns(Pistol)/TL7 skill. AMT Automag .44 AutoMag (Holdout -2) AMT Original Automag: A large single action semi automatic weapon, this is the original Automag by Harry Sanford. When it was introduced in the seventies this was the first pistol to fire high powered magnum cartridges. Clint Eastwood takes a break from his .44 Magnum to use the .44 Automag in one of his Dirty Harry films. It has been out of production for close to two decades now, but after Harry Sanford died in early 1999 the AMT factory was sold off, and the new owners decided to run a limited series of original Automags in the .44 AMP caliber. These guns will be exact copies of the original guns. This may also mean that they will only function properly with full powered loads, and that some parts (most notably the extractor) will be somewhat fragile. Most likely these guns will seldom be fired anyway, as they are instant collectors items due to their reputation and their flashy, sleek and slightly futuristic looks. Should these guns be used they will look very intimidating and at the same time classy, combined with a lot of recoil... The Automag is a recoil operated pistol, is made entirely of stainless steel, and these new guns are of excellent quality, unlike some of the last pistols made in the seventies. They are very accurate. The magazine holds seven rounds of .44 AMP ammo. AMT Automag III (Holdout -2) A large single action semi automatic weapon, this is the brainchild of Harry Sanford, creator of the original automag.
