 Re: Diaspora Brilliant Clash! I was going to object about some minor details, but it would be nitpicking and I need to read the book more now rather than sound like an idiot later

I mean, come on, everyone KNOWS that stinky story games are narrowly focused pieces of crap that use things like "karma" points in a quaint way to destroy all GM authoritay!1!@2! I mean, those bastards write sick and twisted games about animals! Yeah, we should revoke their RPG License and kick them out of the hobby. And you better watch it buddy, you're on thin ice. We're not bitter at all, are we now, Bill?  -clash

Re: Diaspora boulet wrote: Brilliant Clash! I was going to object about some minor details, but it would be nitpicking and I need to read the book more now rather than sound like an idiot later Thanks, but feel free to object away, boulet! How else does one find mistakes? Just remember I'm not talking skin or even flesh here. I'm talking bones. -clash Added: I followed this up - with a bit more expansion - in by blog: http://iflybynight.blogspot.com/2010/01/story-gaming-trad-gaming-and-structure.html. This track of thought is leading me into interesting directions... -clash

Re: Diaspora Jesus, Clash, that is some good stuff. Can we print that out on a flyer and mail it to a lot of people?

Re: Diaspora I just picked up Diaspora from a fan (who sold me an extra copy of theirs.)
Tell me what makes it so great to you? I like what I see but I'd like other opinions.

Re: Diaspora You might want to check out the forums attached to the RPG item at RPG Geek -- they are pretty active and there's a fair number of AP sessions as well.

Re: Diaspora The only part I've played so far has been the Cluster generation mini-game, where you build the system in which your campaign takes place. It was a great combination of random generation and creativity and the end result was rich with play potential.
