The more I look at the paranoia comics the more confused I get. Been thinking for a while it was an inexplicable mishmash of Zap/Straight but the comics seem to have come out long before XP. I... don't get it, and I'm not sure whoever wrote the comic did either. E: Who is it for? Why is it? How? Arcanuse fucked around with this message at 04:05 on Feb 2, 2021 |

If the publishing dates here are any indicator; It looks like the comic ran from Nov 1991 to Aug 1992, so the tail end of second edition.

S'pose Khorne had to do something with all those other non-skull bones just laying around I mean, what else were they gonna do, take up bone carving? start another pile for each kind of bone? "Tibias go in this pile, femurs go in that pile on the side, ribs over there..."  'course, now I'm picturing some unlucky khornate assigned to bone-sorting duty; grumbling all day long at being denied their rightful skulltaking

(Probably not for long, as they either likely get munched/ghouled/brought into the Brujah/etc, but still.) e: "Yeah they aren't Brujah, but they're Brujah."

quote:Only effective against one target at a time, the victim of Horrid Reality believes completely that the illusion before them exists, and thus can harm them (illusory fire will burn, illusory walls will stop them, illusory bullets will wound them, etc.). I get the impression a cheeky vampire could run away with some real (if brief) nonsense here if it suited them. Want to cross from one place to another? Use it on yourself so there's a ladder/bridge/etc, and just move right on over, it's tangible enough (to you.) until it wears off. Arcanuse fucked around with this message at 18:33 on May 31, 2023 |

quote:Small Howitzer (105mm) - Requires a crew of four to operate (two to load, one to aim, one to fire). Minimum difficulty is a 5 (after five rounds of having the target corrected) and reduce the difficulty by 1 for a forward observer correcting the aim. A successful hit drops the difficulty to 5. Damage Pool is 30. Base difficulty is 10.

Doors to the unknown really left something to be desired. Did spark some ideas for me though, so that's something?  more credit to wasted potential than the actual adventure in and of itself Arcanuse fucked around with this message at 06:53 on Jun 21, 2023 |

bit slow on the draw, but re: Chantries from what I could see, I'm not wholly convinced Lo Pan and friends should've even been in the nephandi section They are evil, but they don't really strike me as Nephandi Grade Evil(tm) Chantry so much as a Rogue Chantry (run by a former/technically nephandi). Iunno, not enough weird gribblies, bizarre spacial dimensions, nigh-guaranteed damnation (insidiousness varying), that sort of thing. e: and, y'know. some non-nephandi chantries in the same book being markedly worse.

think there's some rogue [i]talicization. anyways bit miffed at the Marauder's inclusion in this one. comes off as "Hey, we have a marauder chantry yet?" "no" "eh just put em on a spooky boat, call it a day" which is a disservice to both marauder and boat, really. Why not, Iunno, a traveling theater-chantry of marauders working magic (knowingly or not) to spark people's imagination and put a little wonder back in the world? Just something more than a relative footnote where I'm left wondering why include them at all.

Advanced Carrien Sanitation They've seen a few sanitation jobs; got a knack for reading what the contracts say, what they actually entail, and which of those are worth the bother between better jobs. Arcanuse fucked around with this message at 07:29 on Jan 31, 2024 |
