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.

Quote from: James J SkachThere was a GURPS version? Huh.  Must have been during my years off of gaming.

I really have to dig those up and read them again.

The books are great. The rpg, not so great....not so good either.

I want a game that mirrors Scorsese's Gangs of New York.  Not just a bunch of thugs tacked onto a system, but a system and setting intertwined to create rich characters, plots, and subplots.  Something where a "character mechanic" like a traditonal character was also meshed with a "gang mechanic" where your gang would enhance your stats for certain crimes, battles, etc.  I imagine a similar mechanic could be used in a Maximum Security Prison RPG. I started outlining both of these a while back, but I just couldn't define what the draw would be.  I still think there's a game there, though.  Somewhere.  But probably a board game more than RPG which is not what I was looking for.
