Title: Vice Squad: Miami Nights is NOW AVAILABLE
Post by: pspahn on March 01, 2007, 02:19:54 PM
Welcome back to the 80s!

Vice Squad: Miami Nights puts you in the role of cop or criminal on the crime-ridden streets of 1980s Miami. Vice Squad: Miami Nights is the successor to Vice Squad: 80s Police Adventures, and includes rules for playing police officers, criminals, and other types of characters, new gimmicks and clichés, a breakdown of crime and punishment, tips and optional rules for heroic, 80s-style adventures, an overview of Greater Miami, dozens of plot hooks and story ideas, a sample scenario, character templates, and a 1980s primer and 100-question quiz to get you back in the mood.

Vice Squad: Miami Nights focuses on the “mythical” Miami of popular 1980s movies, videogames, and television shows. Think palm trees, pastel colors, pink flamingos, neon lights, hit music, bongo drums, bikinis, designer clothes, speedboats, drug deals, flamboyant cocaine cowboys, ruthless drug czars, and the honest cops who oppose them. This is the heart of Vice Squad: Miami Nights.

Great!  Let me know what you think.  I think it's pretty rad.

Tomorrow night I'll order 2 products.

The Classic Traveller CD-ROM is the other one.

You mean Pete didn't write it on order from you, Doc? :D

Heh!  You'd think.  But no, I just told him that he'd already sold a copy, and tomorrow night, I downloads it.

Ha!  :)

Hope it brightens your weekend.  The amount of cheese should get at least one smile out of you, if not more.

Okay.  I skimmed it and it's K-rad.  The radio stations are great, the locations are great, the "Never A Dull Moment" section is great (although it's laid out strangely, in the middle of another section).

Totally non-heinous.

OK, Rotwang, so rather than (continuing to) check the boards 18,000 times a day to see if you've left a comment, I figured I'd just go ahead and ask:  Does VSMN stack up to your vision of the 80s---something RPGPundit once described as a "coke-hazed jumble of miami vice reruns."  :)

In about 2-3 weeks I'm actually going to get to play the game for the first time (as opposed to running it).  Just can't decide whether we want to play cops or criminals, so we'll probably end up going others (vigilante).  

Anyone else have any thoughts or feedback?  Always much appreciated.

Actually, it stacks up to my vision of cyberpunk, which itself is distilled straight from my memories of the 1980s, so...yeah, meng.  It's good stuff.  I hope you enjoy playing it -- when I run it, I'll let you know.
