Evil GM and slightly less evil RPG player.
The dice gods laugh at heroism but do love a good underdog...
I have tried googling possible fixes but with the amount of terrible ai takes I got I don't know if I trust that anymore...

(raises a slightly embarrassed hand)

I've still got my copy of this too. Never actually ran it due to it's convoluted rules system and wacky world building that veered just too close to po faced insanity for me.

Next you'll be dragging out a copy of Senzar or Warp World...

I've got one of the ones with the clear pockets you populate yourself. It makes a huge difference to being able to customise the info you actually need on hand.

This is pretty much the start of @amongstarsbones.bsky.social 's Among the Stars and Bones (which is awesome and highly recommended)

I actually ran this for my university group back in the deep dark distant past. The actual system is fine though the absolutely stupid number of skills still floors me.

We may have been a tiny bit pretentious back in the 90s 😆

Ooh, Emeraude De Chivor is an amazing ink. Have fun with the awesome shimmer/sheen combos in that one.

I want a motorway one - just so there's an excuse to include The Pennine Tower Restaurant' back in print.

Woohoo!

If you can find it there's 'The End' published by Scapegoat games (back in 1995!) Interesting dice system but suffers from the 90s issue of way too many skills.

However the Revelations based background is really good and is worth trying to find it just for the setting.

Eeep! I started playing this two weeks after it first came out when my friend's dad brought it back for him from a business trip to the US. I still have my copy of 1st ed.

(Slinks away feeling way too old today. It doesn't feel like 34 years back... )

That Argent is incredible!

Ziplock bag (occasionally stapled to cardboard to weigh it down) does seem to be the standard. I'd be a little worried about damage if they were just loose in a huge box with books n stuff...

Oooh, is that the set with the corresponding Gatchaman episodes as extras?

I have two 'everyday' pens for general work usage depending on how I feel that day. One is filled with the subtle, elegant Diamine Black Ivy - the other has the batshit insane Emeralde De Chivor.

<sneaks off to go take a look at this. Pbta isn't generally my thing (I have a perfectly rational hatred for ttrpgs with arbitrary levels) but my love for Galactica might override that>

I have the backer pdfs for v3 and they've given me a bunch of ideas but it's not until I've got the actual books in my hands that I feel that I can properly run something with the new streamlined system. Guess I'm just full on luddite.

Every sci-fi setting is better with uplifted orcas. And even better with uplifted octopi too.
