[Interest Check] Cyberpunk! SWN+Polychrome

#1 Post by Tamerlaine »

I've had a jones for a cyberpunk game, now recently stoked by Morgan's 'Altered Carbon' tv series (I'm a huge Takeshi Kovacs fan as well as Ghost in the Shell, among others). I've perused Shadowrun, SW with Interface Zero, Cyberpunk 2020, Eclipse Phase, etc etc yet I feel most are too 'crunchy' for someone with little time on his hands. So in the interest of running a game in the style of using D&D rules that everyone understands, I thought SWN might be the game to play with bits gleaned from the Polychrome supplement.

This is a tentative interest check. There's a spark of an idea in the back of my head that I would like to explore but I don't know if anyone would want to play. It will be dark, gritty, and deadly, that I can tell you.

Gritty dark deadly cyberpunk sounds interesting. What's the elevator pitch?

Welcome Octa9on!
Enjoy the site. :)

This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Posting interest. Not sure of my availability but, depending on the posting requirements, I might be able to do it.

Are you using SWN Revised?
