StarDrive

Ok, so this game is going to start up again once Elli's game winds down. That means that we'll only have four players and myself every other week. To be truthful, I'm ok with that.

Trust me, you would be much happier, with me running a game I WANT to run. And as much as I love Star Wars, I ran a SW game for three years. I don't want to run another one just yet. I didn't really want to run the SG-1 game, even though I love the universe and may do it again some day, so I was never really "gung ho" with it. But with StarDrive, I know the setting, I know what's going to happen, each character has a subplot just for them, and most of all, there's no pre-established plotline I'd feel at ALL beholden to. I mean, sure, the Externals thing, but that's more a case of "Here's who they are and what they want. Have fun" than a running plot. And I need a game where it's not based on what's come before.

Once StarDrive has run it's limit and I'm ready to run again, I'll be running my HERO Quantum Pulp game. 'Cuz that's where it's at. But until then, it's StarDrive: A small group of humans, working to make a living while events around them unfold and affect them in ways they can't see coming.

My wife found City of Villains for $5 and snagged it for me. So now I can be hero OR villain. I'll likely just mess around with it a bit and concentrate on being a hero for the foreseeable future, but I'll be glad of the content that only comes with CoV.

If there's one thing I HATE HATE HATE in Fantasy novels and Fantasy RPGs, it's the attitude that because it's Fantasy, one doesn't have to explain why the world is the way it is, and can ignore the rules of reality willy-nilly.

You want a world that doesn't spin? Sure, no problem--but please explain to me why the day side isn't a desert, and why the night side isn't a miserable fucking place to live. Please tell me why, if the world used to turn, civilization didn't come to a screaming halt when it stopped.
