SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

...where the pcs live fast, die young and roll up new ones from a limited pool of characters .

Title : Body Count

Genre : Harlan Ellison /Survival horror

Tagline : One shot is all you get...

You willl become one of them .One day soon, you'll find a revolver with a list of names on it and instructions. One bullet only for each name or there will be consequences. One day time limit for each name. Happy Hunting. You miss a target or spend more than one bullet on a quarry, one part of your body becomes numb and useless. Perhaps you go blind in one eye. Than maybe you fuck up again, and your left leg becomes paralysed. Maybe you should cooperate with your fellow players. Maybe the cops will find you before your next kill. Maybe the prey has friends. A lot of maybes and only one day till your next kill.

Title : Comitatus (Comitatenes)

Genre: Historical fantasy :D

Tagline : Our deeds are immortal

A group of Roman legionaires sail through a storm and find themselves marooned in a generic fantasy setting. They are human, they are few, they have no magic but they are led by a cunning military genius. This land is ours.This is our time. Our Empire begins now....

Your turn :D

Regards,
David R

Title: After the beginning.

Genre: Super sci-fi post-singularity ala Verner Vinge's Marooned in Realtime.

Tagline: Everyone else has ascended to a technological heaven and left you behind, well, almost everyone else.

You thought it would be fun. Go camping for a week, go roughing it. Fun, except when you got back everyone was gone. AI went sentient, invented all sorts of weird, wonderful, and dangerous tech, the world went crazy, then everybody left. Some of the new tech can create miracles, just be careful what you ask for, it powers itself by turning matter into energy and it courses through your veins. Ask for to much or ask incorrectly and it'll consume you, literally. Physically and psychologically. Oh, and uh, not everyone left, they're just not all, strictly speaking, 'human'.

Make it a GIANT floating mountain/city of a yellow blimp crossing the ocean between continents.... only to find that the curse of atlantis has befallen ALL of the continents.

Sort of a swashbuckling, steampunk, dark gods, Conan end of the world campaign. OK maybe a short campaign.
