RPGs / Tell me your best Palladium story...
« on: September 27, 2011, 04:45:26 PM »
I remember my first Palladium game....TMNT. I think it was 1986. My friend bought it in a comic book store.
I rolled up a 5 foot tall squirrel named Roadkill who drove a monster truck...heady stuff I know.
But by gawd it was definitely a big change of pace from stodgy old 3X5 card character sheet Traveller, the then stagnant 'Oh wow yet another orc!' AD&D and uninspiring Top Secret.
Roadkill went on to smoosh many a foe under the wheels of his big bad 4-wheel Ford. He died tragically one day, on the side of a river, pulled out of his beloved truck and struck down by cybernetically enhanced robo-aligator assassins. Not my most memorable Palladium memory, but my first.
I don't recall having any issues with the system. Just a lot of fun.
I know gamers love to tell stories...I'd like to here some good positive ones.
Also what happened with the Palladium Games grab-bag Rifts experiment mentioned in episode 52?
