Hi! This is the hopefully not-too-annoying monthly mailer for the Risustalk mailing list, where we prattle on about Risus: the Anything RPG, by S. John Ross (a...

What's everybody up to? I still haven't run a single game, but continue to fiddle with Risus like it's the monster in my basement lab. Someday. Moving my stuff...
I've been thinking of a mash-up between Risus, the PDQ system, and a little of FATE 3.0. Haven't put anything on paper yet but it's all in my head for now......
We might have talked on RPG.net? I was thinking of a FATE mashup, but everything I wanted to do is really in the Companion. So I think I've discarded that...
Hey, aren't you a moderator at Risusiverse? ;-) (no worries, I spend time at Uncle Bear's too) How about giving it some love too and cross posting the cool...
I'm not going to remove you...you were one of the core people to bring Risusiverse about. You can always get back to it when you are able. What about sharing...
Feel free to grab them from here... http://www.unclebear.com/wiki/index.php?title=Free_Systems my old site is still up (technically), but most of the stuff has...
Feel free to shoot me any stuff you want posted that you don't have time to put up on Risusiverse yourself (that offer stands for anyone on the list). Larry...
Hi New guy here, and pleased as punch with Risus :) I have been enjoying my daily allotment of risus talk and learning heaps. I have unfortuneately been unable...
Well, I have been considering running an 'Underworld-esq' game online for a while ~ but don't have much experience with RISUS todate. I do, and am currently in...
Firefly, yes that shiny wonderous and sadly abandoned sci fi series makes an ideal setting for a spot of role-playing combining as it does the fun of the...
... I don't think there is much in the way of concrete. Risus is a good game for a PBEM, since the rules don't take up much time. I ran a super-hero Risus game...
That's a really cool list, Jon, but I think it might lean a little too far in the direction of all ships in the Serenity universe being buckets of bolts, just...
I agree with Chuk, in that Risus seems to be a really good system for PBEM. Most of the gaming I do these days is PBEM or PBP and the lighter systems seem to...
... too far in the direction of all ships in the Serenity universe being buckets of bolts, just ready to fall apart. In the case of the Serenity, and whatever...
Interesting! So rather than - say having players go with the Sidekicks and Shieldmates, where they could buy a 'quality' cliché for the ship - they instead...
Hi All, For anyone who might be interested, I've made a new version of Cthulhu Risus, with rules changes to reflect feedback from playtests and whatnot; it's...
For a ship why couldn't every one in the party kick in a die for the ship? If four players kicked in a die each and you used the same ratio as Sidekicks that...
These are all really cool ideas, as was John Doe's thoughts about using the Sidekicks and Shieldmates rules for determining the ship's quality. Stefan's post...
I would definately go with the idea of the ship as a sidekick... and really like the hidden cliches idea. In a ship with enough dice for several hidden cliches...
Now you're cookin' with gas! Or perhaps more appropriately, "Let's be bad guys!" or, if you prefer, "Great kid, don't get cocky!" ... -- Stefan Livingstone...
Jon, are you going to write all of this up, all shiny and official like? I would love to see the "end result" of all of these e-mails. What everyone has...
I second that! I've been lurking (it is my way...) and enjoying all the creativity you guys have been applying to the task. I'd like to add a cliche I don't...
Kinda off subject but does 2 of the 5 examples below strike others as 'odd'? Back on point, well kinda, is anyone going to maybe run such a game... maybe by...
... That would be on account of your having not watched the series ;) -- Stefan Livingstone Shirley Campus (607)436-2739 / Yahoo IM: peregrine13820 / [3.67] ...
I'm trying to write up human characters inspired by the characters of Disney's Talespin. In particular are Baloo, Kit, Rebecca, Molly, and Wildcat. I'll post...
ok. As promised: "Baloo" Down on his luck Smuggler (3) Great War Ace (4) Bear-like Drunken Brawler (2) Philosopher (1) ToT: The Merganser (the Sea Duck),...
... Actually, I have watched the series and know what they're referring to, but they're still very odd for ship cliches. Doesn't make much sense to me to use...
Doh! Sorry about that. I see your point and tend to agree when you put it just so. So... Could these be hooks to give the ship extra dice? ... -- Stefan...
