Hi Kurt,
Please review the Untamed Lands books, by Gun Metal Games! I'm curious about that setting. I love sword & sorcery!

@knwiegel I see your point. It's just that when I watched Farscape I remember thinking "this is Traveller" all the time. Even the whole situation with the Peacekeepers reminded me of the first contact with the Vilani. But maybe it's just me. Also, I generally prefer deadly/more realistic systems, even for light-hearted campaigns. Must be all that Ravenloft I ate as a kid.

actually, diaspora kinda reminds me of the reboot of battlestar galatica, and all those feature could make a really intersting riff off that take

@hathiphnath One thought was to take a cue from Shadowrun and have one PC run one or multiple robots like a rigger does. Or, do what you mentioned and have the PC play robot with preset stats and abilities that can be upgraded, but put limits on those upgrades, and then make it a point to the player that their character is not sentient but operates to a purpose (unless it's been corrupted in some way). That means an Alignment (makes me shudder to think about it).

Just one small quiz: Whay is it called BULLDOGS! Is it class, or general expression in the game (Like Wildcards in Savage worlds)? You use to be good telling us this things Kurt, but Im affraid you misst it in this episode. Indeed Very GOOD Episode by the way..
