This is great. I was trying to decide between running Mr. Bubbles or Stealth Train for some first time players, this settles it. Should help them figure out the setting.
I would love to see more of these! Especially from the Mister Bubbles mission and other the pre-made missions in other books. Also I was wondering how it went with your group.
I just got a few of the books, and I intend to do a few missions and test it out. I just think the "Shoot the Traitor" and the "Ohffishul Patch!" seem like something my players would enjoy... I'm assuming the patch is made by the Computer Phreaks?
Anyway, I intended to use audio (text-to-speech for the computer making announcements) and video (such as this) to get some of the comedy across.
Not exactly sure if Youtube approved my other post... I had assumed it had before I noticed it was still "pending approval"
Anyway, I'm running a campaign and I intend to use text to speech (as announcements by the computer) and videos (such as this) to get some extra comedy in.
@Kumeelyun I've gotten the books, and I figured I'd use audio (text to speech) and video (such as this) to represent Friend Computer's announcements and missions.
@IrreverentFool I would like to as well. I know some people involved with Paranoia XP are aware of this cartoon, but I have yet to hear back from anyone about doing more.
I think I may have to try paranoia (the game, I''ve already tried the real one), currently however I am playing Eclipse phase, so I may have to wait a little. Good job by the way
@Kabooloo I used Flash. It was pretty easy to make this once I planned out how to adapt the mission briefing from the Paranoia XP book. The graphics and animation are simple overall.
Praise The Computer for this entertaining and informative briefing! My daycycle is filled with mirth thanks to Friend Computer's diligent delivery of details!
Ran across this looking for examples of mission briefings for a work project. Oh man, did this take me back several years. Glad there is still an active Paranoia community.
When I GM no one reports the error in the briefing! Errors are TREASON! Failure to report treason is TREASON! Treason is TREASON! Treason makes the Computer cry! Why do wish to harm our Friend, the Computer?, You Commie Mutant bastard!
Is nyet to be worrying, Comera-err, Citizen. Is werry minor error. Nothing to being concerned about. Worrying can sign of unhappiness being. Here, take these unlabeled, odd lookink Happy pills. Dot is vot they are. Yes. Happy pills.
OreWaUsopp, you are not cleared to discuss your mission on a public forum. Report immediately to sector MFONOUD1NT for termination and organ harvesting.
HALLELUJA! Friend computer be praised! The Mission Briefing has been found! OH man, that was close! I almost thought I was going to be terminated for failure to receive my briefing.
Maaaaaaaaaaaaaake Mooooooooooooooooooooar!

Great video, I might use it in a future mission, but I'd have to make a scenario around it.(or at least that includes it.)
