The game I'm going to be playing is "finish your new book, Fuego", a rousing game wherein I finish my Goddamn book.

Also I'm doing a cool Fate pbp campaign.

Everyone should play my Fate hack, and they should do it right now. Or any time before Monday, really.

Once upon a time, I wrote mass combat rules for D&D 4th, which was just a case of using the combat engine that was already there and severely reducing movement speeds and ranges to simulate larger distances. All the various units would otherwise just use the basic monster math for attack damage and stuff.

There were a few other minor rules, like attaching a PC to a company and getting some sweet extra abilities based on your role and power source. But honestly, 4e was basically built for this sort of thing.

Sounds like one of my generators, that's what it sounds like. I'll sue.

You know you can't complete a long-term project like a lawsuit.

Two books says otherwise :smug:

For which game? If it's actually similar, I'll just buy a copy of yours instead of thinking real hard about this for a month, producing 20 pages of notes and ideas, and then never doing anything with it again.

Not for any particular system, but vaguely D&D-leaning, it's the Backstory Generator which provides a random adventurer's backstory, including their origin point, various information on their likes/dislikes, and sometimes even manages to be kind of really good on rare occasions.

OK so moving on from that post which I didn't read a word of, and which nobody else probably read either, in more important news it's my birthday today.

Did you mug Winson Paine and take his old avatar? Because that looks familiar.
or did you finally eat him to gain his power

I made that avatar for Winson way back when. Took a crappy ol' screenshot and worked a good 20 minutes of photoshop magic on it to make it look presentable. Good to see it's getting an airing again.
