This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I ran into living breathing players who live within walking distance and met them at a game store which is also within walking distance (though unfortunately focuses on card and board games) so I may have a new group to run 5e for, who may be okay with me running it on my mashup world Erthmyst. They are also interested in FFG Star Wars, which may be my impetus to actually buy Edge of Empire and the fancy dice.

Quote from: Natty Bodak;941489Is M-Space basically Sci-fi RQ6? That sorta piques my interest.

It's science-fiction Mythras / RuneQuest 6 light, I believe.  It's based on the Mythras Imperative rules set.

Quote from: Necrozius;938109I really hope so. I'm getting my dad to play (to keep him busy in his retirement). He's a massive Asimov and Clarke fan, so I'm hoping to tap into that and let him explore some of the themes that he likes from those authors. He's also the person who introduced me to the Hero Quest board game, the artist Moebius and Heavy Metal magazine. :)


Gaming with your dad? That's awesome! As far as the "lack of sci-fi" in Numenera, I think I may be one of the only people who doesn't feel it's "D&D with the serial numbers filed off. I just visualize it...not that. :D I get why people can, it's just my mind naturally gravitates to the science-fantasy it's supposed to be. Perhaps I've been away from D&D too long? Who knows? That said, I've glanced at Kevin Crawford's games (I have Godbound), some threads about his other games and samples, so I can totally see inserting some of them into Numenera, which made me comment on how cool such GM tools would be. I've been looking at Stars Without Number for a while and maybe your idea is a reason to get it. So thank you for that.

At any rate, I hope your hybrid hits the bullseye and you and your dad have a great game.
