Honestly, tabletop RPG frameworks where your vehicle has way more mechanical detail than the character driving it are wasted on giant robots. I want a game about Prohibition-era bootleggers where the inadvisably hot-rodded Studebaker you use to outrun the cops has a three-page character sheet and the mobster behind the wheel fits on a postcard.

Eat God

Played our first round of Eat God tonight, @prokopetz ' developing ttrpg.

The party consists of a beaver with a tail for smashing. Or grabbing. Or flying. Also a half-goblin-half-centipede with pink tinted glasses. And a union of hatless stone garden gnomes. Slightly damp ones. Chilly, damp, stone garden gnomes. A whole union of them. And an amorphous metallic ooze.

They met a priest and ate his dinner. And, quite possibly, ruined his day. Maybe also his life.

it was a lot of fun.

I consistently roll 5 and lower on perception checks with my assassin, and it has become a running joke for our game that every time I fail a perception check, we say something like this.. "As Petra looks around the room, she immediately forgets the task at hand and inserts her finger deep into her nose.." -_-
