I've been entertaining this thought for a while, and while eliminating the Tesla effects from UnMet, to transition it to a more psychobilly game seems obvious, new callings do not seem so obvious for me. So, give me your opinions on what new callings I can create to ensure a more psychobilly feel to my UnMet game.
I don't know what you're are talking about here....
but you may want to check this (http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product_info.php?products_id=15720%7B1%7D1&it=1) out.
Talking about making Unhallowed Metropolis into a psycho game instead of steampunk. Horrorpops instead of Abney Park, ya know?
IMO, taking the game in that direction rips out what is best about it. And in a couple of ways seems counter to the cool ethos they have built up.
Perhaps if you gave more of "your vision" for the changes of the world we could approach it from a fresh direction?
I don't know much about 'UnMet'... except that it looks cool and I'd like to mine that and Etherscope for a GURPS Steampunk game...
On the other hand a Psychobilly horror game sounds pretty damn cool... in fact I think I'd rather play that than my GURPS Steampunk dream-date...
Forget Unhallowed Metropolis... just build it up from scratch!
Lots of nods to Universal monsters, Ed Roth, Odd Rods...
The GURPS Atomic Horror book would have useful reference...
For me it would have to be a pretty crazy mish-mash... centered on street racing gangs, smokey bars, psychedelic drugs that can alter your flesh, mad doctors, aliens, women roller derby teams, Tiki, and flying eyeballs... for a start.
Evil Dead with an Undead Buddy Holly as an antihero, while The Creepshow blasts in the background. WOOT!
