I've finally pulled up my boot straps and decided to make variations on the tilesets I have, since it's obvious the original creators are never going to do so. They're not perfect, but since they're the lowly 50 scale versions you won't be zooming in too much on them anyway. There's over 500, so I'm not keen on making them absolutely flawless. :v: Managed these so far. [t]http://i.imgur.com/8nLoaqS.png[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/Bz5QXSD.png[/t]

Also Venus and the Morningstar Constellation are much less of a Capitalist Utopia than the Planetary Consortium because most basic services and products there are free thanks to Nanofabrication - the reason there are ads everywhere is because that's one of the few ways to make money on Venus. Nah man if you're a rampant capitalist the Planetary Consortium is the place to be. You can DRM restrict people's genes. [editline]3rd May 2014[/editline] Fuck

[editline]3rd May 2014[/editline] Fuck[/QUOTE] The way I understood it, even in the Planetary Consortium, creating food, non-smart clothing, furniture, and most other simple objects was trivial. Once the small tax is paid then goods are essentially free. Basic medical care is also free in (almost) all transitional economy places. But stuff like smart clothing and furniture, goods from highly durable composite materials, batteries, electrically powered devices, and all nanotech had to be purchased from corps/governments/etc. That would make more sense to me, since even the Consortium understands that restricting basic services and goods merely for the sake of being [I]eeevil[/I] capitalists (a point the Eclipse Phase writers like to portray them as a lot), then that equals unhappy people, and unhappy people are not productive.

A friend is thinking of running a campaign of one game or another this summer. I hope it's eclipse phase, because I kind of really want to make a character using a pleasure pod that looks like a mannequin on the edge of the uncanny valley.
How interested would people be in playing a 4e Shadowrun game where all the PCs are inmates at a high security psychiatric hospital at the start of the game? Everyone has to start with like 20bp worth of mental problems.

Chris-Chan the autistic technomancer.
[QUOTE=Rents;44729515]Chris-Chan the autistic technomancer.[/QUOTE] Considering his physical ineptness he'd make a good decker/hacker with enough motivation and if he'd be able to do all the stuff from his smelly room. Thankfully that also means that the rest of the party would get away with avoiding direct physical contact. :v:
Heyy it's everyone's least favorite time of the day! Magical Burst log dumps! Have these two Burst logs from months ago I finally summarized. [B]Magical Burst: Session 19: Everything's a Little Less Fucked[/B] [URL]http://pastebin.com/kvmxzN7y[/URL] [quote]Satoya, after leaving Tami shellshocked, decides to go to a number of places and retrieve some miscellaneous things. She gets some cream for her inflated and itchy face (courtesy of her magic makeup), alcohol and a lighter. She then hears a ringing in her head, "answers" it, and discovers it's Sarah mindpinging her, telling her to meet at the school. Satoya makes a molotov and tosses it in the (currently empty and closed for the day) coffee shop, then heads out. Eri splits off from Eve and heads to Tami's house. Eri consoles the mentally scarred Tami, then gets the same mindping Satoya got from Sarah, telling her to meet at the school. Eve heads to Ally's, they cry, and Eve finds out it's been about a week since her and Eri were last seen. Eve gets mindpinged by Sarah, and tells Sarah that herself and Ally were heading to the school's paranormal club to discuss the incident with the fleshbeasts and look for Ko. Sarah agrees to meet her there and summon the others. Sarah, before all that, headed home, talked shortly with her sister, and then mindpinged everyone to meet up at the school. In the paranormal club room, the group collabs. They discover that the club is now being funded by Shosuke, and that they have a number of blueprints for various devices that they're working on. To search for the still-missing Ko, Satoya, Shosuke, Fatty and Shouty (from the paranormal club) all head to search one part of the city, while Sarah, Eve and Eri check the hospital. Satoya, Shosuke, Fatty and Shouty head to the bar Satoya burned down. They find an Oblivion Seed, which begins to crack before it "hatches" into a full-fledged youma. They all take up arms and begin fighting it (the three nonmagicals fighting with sticks). Sarah mindpings Satoya telling her they found Ko, while Satoya informs Sarah that she is currently fighting a youma. Sarah says she'll be there shortly and ends the connection. On the trip to the hospital, Eri informs Sarah, Suzu and Tami about her and Eve's experience in the fleshbeast hivemind. At the hospital, they find Ko. They all get together again, as a news report shows Princess fleeing from a burned down convenience store. End session.[/quote] [B]Magical Burst: Session 20: NO CREAM FOR YOU[/B] [URL]http://pastebin.com/K41aytJh[/URL] [quote]Upon unanimous agreement of the party, we timejump backwards some time, before the fleshbeast incident and everything got dark. The party (minus Eve who wasn't playing and Satoya who is elsewhere) is walking out of school, NPCs in tow, when they decide "LET'S GO TO THE BEACH." Eri calls Satoya telling them they want to go to the second Tier rich people beach, Satoya agrees with this proposal. They go to the beach. At the beach, the party minus Satoya finds Valentine, with her brother Shosuke, sunbathing. They interact for a short time before Satoya crashes the party, literally. She beaches a stolen boat, the crash of which blasts sand in the party's direction. Ally opens an umbrella she's carrying, casually blocking the sand from herself and the other NPCs behind her. Eri ducks behind Ally's umbrella, Sarah rips Val's umbrella from the sand and covers herself with that, Shosuke is entirely unhit despite being right in the center, and Val's top gets blown off and buried (along with Jake, her rabbit). They begin digging in the sand for Val's top. Satoya finds it. And rips it in half. Shosuke rises from the search, brushes the sand off him, and thinks Val's top was ripped in the blast. He gives Val his shirt. As he removes his shirt, his absolutely ripped as fuck 14pack is revealed. Shosuke's 14pack has been described as: 9:40 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: "...Incredible..." 9:40 PM - Titty cat: "MAJESTIC" 9:40 PM - Titty cat: "LEGENDARY" They then decide to play volley ball. The teams are: Team Blue - Eri, Ally, Tami and Val ; Team Red - Sarah, Ko, Suzu and Shosuke. Satoya is busy chasing seagulls. They serve and volley back and forth for some time, then Satoya comes back and takes Shosuke's place. Some more volleys. Satoya fails horribly at one point and gets tangled in the net. Val takes off Satoya's top in revenge. Satoya is unphased, and they reset the net and continue normally, everyone on Team Red getting penalties for being distracted by Satoya's tits. In the end, Team Red wins. They now decide they need ice cream. 11:02 PM - Fuck this contract: The whole gang follows, and you approach an ice cream stand 11:02 PM - John Person: "Ah, hello, what can I get you ladies today?" 11:03 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: "Uh... uhm.... I think he's ordering for us." Eri points to Shosuke. 11:03 PM - Fuck this contract: Shosuke steps aside, allowing the girls to view all the flavorful flavors of ice cream that are available for your delightful perusal 11:04 PM - John Person: "We have chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry. Our flavor of the day is mango." 11:05 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: "I'll take chocolate." 11:05 PM - Titty cat: "I'll have all of the above!" 11:05 PM - Sarah Salem: "Vanilla would be great." 11:05 PM - John Person: *looks at eri expectantly* How large of a cone? 11:05 PM - John Person: *Seems irritated* One at a time." 11:05 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: "Uhm... the medium size?" 11:06 PM - John Person: "WE DO NOT HAVE MEDIUM, ONLY SMALL AND LARGE. NO CREAM FOR YOU. NEXT!" 11:06 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: Eri stands aside, defeated. 11:08 PM - John Person: "So one of everything, that only comes in a large cone. 4$." *looks at the catgirl" 11:08 PM - Titty cat: "Large chocolate please!" 11:08 PM - Titty cat: "Furget the everything, just a large chocolate!" 11:09 PM - John Person: "I thought you said you wanted all of the above? YOU DARE MAKE ME WASTE ICE CREAM? I ALREADY MAKE CONE AND YOU CHANGE MIND? NO CREAM FOR YOU!" 11:10 PM - Sarah Salem: "Small vanilla, please." 11:10 PM - John Person: "One dollar, fifty cents. Exact change please." 11:11 PM - Sarah Salem: I hand over the money. 11:11 PM - John Person: "Here you go." 11:11 PM - Fuck this contract: is great success 11:14 PM - John Person: As you taste this ice cream, it is the most magnificent thing you have ever tasted. In fact, it almost tastes magical. You wonder how this strange man made this confectionery treat, and if it really IS magical... 11:15 PM - John Person: "Next!" 11:15 PM - KBz | Valentine: "Can i have seaweed icecream please sir??" 11:16 PM - Sarah Salem: ((nigga what)) 11:16 PM - Fuck this contract: ^^ 11:16 PM - John Person: "That is tomorrows speciality. Today's is mango." 11:16 PM - KBz | Valentine: "Do you have the 420 blaze brand?" 11:16 PM - Titty cat: ((Mfw Val is this fucking dumb)) 11:16 PM - Fuck this contract: ^^^ 11:16 PM - John Person: "No." *twitches* 11:17 PM - KBz | Valentine: "MAKE IT" 11:17 PM - Sarah Salem: I stand there enjoying my treat, the only survivor of the ice cream apocalypse. 11:18 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: Eri shuffles over to Sarah to continue to draw. 11:18 PM - John Person: "YOU DO NOT TELL ME. WHAT. TO. DO. NOT ONLY DO YOU GET NO CREAM, YOU DISRESPECT ME. *Pulls out two glowing ice cream scoops, and a bowl of a strange smelling ice cream* 11:18 PM - KBz | Valentine: "Can i have magno instead??" 11:18 PM - Sarah Salem: I glance at her. 11:18 PM - Sarah Salem: "Want some?" 11:18 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: (magno) 11:18 PM - KBz | Valentine: "Mango" 11:18 PM - Some Eri That You Used to Know: "...Sure." 11:18 PM - Sarah Salem: ((magno)) 11:20 PM - John Person: *Is furious* (Flings an acidic scoop of ice cream at val) After some short back and forth with the Cream Nazi, a giant crab scuttles up from the water and smashes the ice cream stand. This infuriates the Cream Nazi, and the entire party plus Cream Nazi begin attacking the crab. The giant crab grabs Tami, her top falling off in the process. Eri manages to rip off one of the crab's arms without ever transforming. After they kill the crab, Eri gives Tami her top back. They then cook and eat the crab, creating a large impromptu outdoor barbeque where a bunch of other random beachgoers join in to eat giant crab as though it were entirely normal. Shibata the Great makes an appearance, before the party officially met her, and performs a magic show on the dead crab, Cream Nazi hands Sarah and Eri his two scoopswords, and walks into the ocean, fireworks at night. Eri gives Tami her scoopsword for protection. End session.[/quote]
One of my friend's party members managed to die around 3 times in one sitting. First he got turned into a Were Rat so we had to put him down because he was constantly attacking us. Which ended up being my character smashing a pick into it's face. Second death came from the same session. He created a new character which was a knight. We went back to the same dungeon and he ended up falling down a ladder because a Skeleton hit him as he was climbing down. He basically went splat at the bottom of this 60 foot ladder. The last death came from another small campaign we started because one of our members isn't available that often for our main sessions. We all rolled new characters and he rolled for a fighter. About 30 minutes we are in a cave full of goblins trying to save a baby. He ends up getting down to -3hp from a fight. The goblin stuck a sword in his chest. He was quite unlucky for that night.
