Re: One of my all time favourite RPG’s, but …

Hey thanks. I had one from like 2003 or something. I think it is on the Rules page, but it was on the TOS. I may have moved it around at some point and lost it along the way. Like I say, I've redesigned the pages umpteen times and lost PCs and more, so it's just an oversight. I'm working on getting ...

Also, incorporate Twilight 2000-2013 and eliminate Europe.

Re: One of my all time favourite RPG’s, but …

Metrodome is a bad ass setting for Dark Conspiracy . It's completely open-ended, excepting what I have already written for it and am working on (which is already posted, just not hotlinked). There are several people here who are familiar with it; it was online on GeoCIties for years before I took it...

Re: One of my all time favourite RPG’s, but …

The more sophisticated industrial complexes and factories now make "hi-tek" -- mostly Bots, computers, Teleplexes, and the like; all the pedestrian, everyday "lo-tek" was shipped out of country, mostly to Mexico, where their factories were very out-of-date. That's the reason radi...

Re: I am Still Terribly Unorganized

Just my luck. Honestly, I could have written the e-mail and never even sent it -- I spent over an hour proofing that post yesterday -- but I thought I did. Shoot, that was years ago and this was just a shot in the dark. I know I meant to -- it's even listed on the page on the site, which I wrote bac...

I am Still Terribly Unorganized

Hi guys, Sorry I haven't been around in a while. I'm glad to see everyone has carried-on without me -- I'm sure it must have been hard. :lol: Anyway, I'm not sure who handles ProtoDimension or Demonground now or then, nor to which/whom I sent the query/article, but I either wrote or queried about th...

GDW's Demise

Yes, this was literally at the end of GDW. I'm sure I'm only about half-right, but I know Dangerous Journeys came just months afterward - right at the same, general time is what I'm saying - and DJ is what ended GDW (TSR sued them). A lot of people, myself included, have pointed to this as the major...

Thanks!

Thanks Kevin, I knew about those two, so maybe I just missed it. For those (like myself) who don't know, the Empathic Sourcebook is literally like finding the missing middle section of the core book - it's as if you suddenly realized whole chapters had been stuck together all these years. It is the ...

Empathic Sourcebook: The DC Companion

Why didn't anyone tell me the Empathic Sourcebook was the Companion to the 1st-Ed.? Did everyone else know this? This renders about half the stuff I've been doing moot, but that's a good thing for so many reasons, not least of which being that I can get back to focusing solely on developing a campai...

Coffin Sizes

Dark Conspiracy New Orleans lists prole apaartments as 6'x8' and accommodating four!!! At first, I thought it was a typo, but with 48'-sq., that may be correct. After all, they are only used for sleeping, the corp provides paper clothes, and (at least in New Orleans ) bathrooms are communal. And pr...

"Subsumption"

Thanks, Linden. Reading further, the word "subsumption" is mentioned in other Minions' descriptions; it appears to be referring to the whole Nexus of Evil thing - as in their control - but it's hard to tell. Given this, the Cobra People description may have meant there is no way any of the...

New Orleans

Let me just say, the book having arrived yesterday, that Dark Conspiracy New Orleans is one hell of a sourcebook/adventure! That said, I'm not even halfway through it and already have a few nitpicks to post. I'm afraid I'll end up adding to the list as the discussion is furthered - but it's all for ...

City Zones

Hip. Those things are on the way. I retooled the City Zones to be used for any sci-fi game/setting, then re -retooled it back (for specific systems), so that's a mess right this minute. For instance, I renamed the entries according to Dark Conspiracy conventions (anthills, Mike Town, etc. - p. 142-1...

Terms

I was specifically going to state that the prereqs for military be raised, so that's my 2¢ on that. In one of the systems I am designing, the careers is a system inspired largely by DC (and Warhammer FRPG) and I discovered that, yes, some occupations simply provide more than others, systematically s...

Quality

I haven't seen them, but logic dictates you are absolutely right. Like I said before, I'd rather do things through HTML - not even PDF. HTML is so... I mean, when I first learned it (what I know of it, of course), I literally thought, "This is tailor- made for RPGs!" I mean, you can link d...
