Yes, indeed it does seem so. I had hoped that a call to arms would break the deadlock between Luna and the Action! system, but the one voter that did respond...
I didn't have a specific system in mind. I just think one ought to be worked up from the ground. But that represents my specific philosophy on the question. In...
Thank you, Mike. Actually, Luna is being made with the Outsider Chronicles specifically in mind. I simply made the choice to give it it's own name because if...
Give me another week, and I should have Luna 0.3 ready. I hit a snag when I began thinking about how to handle combat. I've been singing the praises of...
If I'm reading that abbreviation correctly, I would say is that means "Star Wars D6." I would have to agree with you on the appeal of that system. It's simple...

I had hoped I would have Luna 0.3 ready by now, but I'm still have some problems organizing the conflict (combat) rules. I think I finally have a good and...
What's there looks pretty solid. I'd say that you ought to expand some on what the GM's duties are, in terms of things like when he should veto a character...
Mike: I love the stakes idea. I had a similar idea in mind, but I had a problem with the way that it changes damage. However, I think it might be worth further...
Good idea. I just didn't grok it when Mike presented it. Seemed too much meeta-gaming involved too. But here... it looks like something nice and elegant. D....

... Thank you, Laros! I'll have to look up a definition of meta-gaming when I have the chance, but I think I get your gist. (I'm familiar with the term, but it...
