Thoughts on a Cyberpunk Game

I've been watching a lot of Max Headroom lately. FUCKING love that show. I would love to see it updated a bit more.

But more to the point, I want to run a game in it.

I've been on a Mongoose Traveller kick lately. I'm thinking it's time to get my blowtorch and solder out and see where I can go with this.

  1. Max Headroom & Traveller? That's chocolate & peanut butter, my friend.

    Now I have something to look forward to under these Mad Max skies.

  2. Damn but I do love some fucking cyberpunk. been playing around with an alternate world to play in, so I've totally stolen from Warren Ellis' Transmetropolitan. I will be sticking up the opening plot hook on my blog at some point in the next couple of weeks, but I hope to see what you come up with too.

  4. Interesting concept man, make sure you keep us posted on how things are shaping up.

    Also shortymonster mentioned Warren Ellis' Transmetropolitan (brilliant) for a cyberpunk setting. Grand idea. I'd also like to throw out that I've wanted to play a supers game based in Warren Ellis' Planetary for years now. That crazy Brit just writes cool in such inventive ways.
