Very interested in trying a spot of WWII gaming using Risus. Thinking of an SOE-in-France themed game Has anyone tried using the interesting looking Risus...
Hey there, John! I have also been interested in doing a WWII campaign using RISUS 'Tenhut'. If anyone has some practical insights or experience I'd like to...
Anyhoo, as the campaign that the Iron Gamers Guild (that's the group I play with) has been put on hiatus owing to the DM needing to take care of some real life...
I think what I am pondering over is whether to do the "Risus Tenhut" route, which is more granular, (a lot more) with initiative and "my action-then your...
I don't know how many people here are familiar with Squidoo. It is an interesting way to promote and build information about any subject. I've gone ahead and...
I do a fair amount on Squidoo, it's good to see a Risus page up there! You did a great job with the page, I don't have any suggestions for improving it. Jay ...
The site looks great! I didn't know anything about 'squidoo' but it looks interesting too, and I'll be looking into it a bit more thoroughly when I have the...
... I am duly impressed. It even has a link for my old character generator. I haven't updated that page in years. I've almost forgotten it exists. -- Hollis...
The Amazing Risus Companion. I finally got it! Just wanted to share the joy with you guys. For those who are still wondering: it's really worth it. It's one of...
... I agree. I've used it with other games, too (mostly fantasy so far) -- the adventure generation rules are great, and the character creation advice can be...
I'm exploring the possibility of a campaign set in the Star Trek Mirror Universe (just after the episode "Mirror, Mirror"). Not very far along yet, but I...
I've changed my mind about some of the later events, and filled in some of the dates I left blank (oops!) Guy c. 30,000 BCE Cro-Magnon man destroys Neanderthal...
Kind of jumping the gun (no pun intended) on the 'supermen' portion of the history aren't you? The eugenics war didn't occur until just before (or is it just...
About the Eugenics Wars, I'm going with the original "Space Seed" info, which definitely states that Khan and his kind flourished in the mid to late 1990s. I...
Well, admittedly, the Trek-verse is the most convoluted sci-fi genre out there. What with all the alternate storylines/histories created by all the various...
Another bias on my part: I'm not particularly fond of the DS9 Mirror episodes, so I'm not especially concerned about following their backstory. They're not...
And thus, you are now qualified to write a Star Trek novel lol. Seriously, though, I say change what you want/need to make it work; it's Star Trek, no one'll...
Here's a little teaser I'm proud of: 2266 Klingon captain Koloth thwarts the Empire's plan to sabotage the ecology of Sherman's Planet using tribbles. ...
Created a room on the IRC server Darkmyst entitled #Risus, drop on by today, and perhaps play a short game or two. Best, OOC92 [Non-text portions of this...
So, really, you could say that Earth was taken over by sentient chimps in the mid-late 1990's and it would probably work as well ;D ... What?!?!! You mean the...
Hmm...Eugenic chimpanzees lead by the brilliant Dr. Ceyus (sp?); an orangutan? You know, this has possibilities :D Samuel 'Grail' "You can't map a sense of...
... That's Dr. Zaius. See, these humans merely mimic the sounds they hear! They cannot truly be intelligent. The Sacred Scrolls say so! Have you forgotten...
Maybe, Dr. Zaius Soong? This is leading into a whole "What if?" universe thing. Also, since this is operating via the Mirror Universe, what if: The Romulans...
Two words: Encounter Critical ... universe thing. Also, since this is operating via the Mirror Universe, what if: The Romulans arrive at Earth in an attempt to...
Well, sure, but it'd be more fun (and easier too) in Risus IMHO ;) Samuel 'Grail' "You can't map a sense of humour."-Terry Pratchet (maybe not, but it sure is...
But...Risus came first (didn't it??). So, really, Encounter Critical should be Advanced Risus ;) Samuel 'Grail' "You can't map a sense of humour."-Terry...
