Day 10 in #rpgaday

Favorite tie-in fiction. You might not believe it when you read my last posts but I am a hardcore Shadowrun-fan and I love the novels. especially the older ones were cool like 2XS by Nigel Findley or Burning Bright by Tom Dowd.

Only two days to go to be current on #rpgaday

  1. Favorite dice: the D6. Always available, everyone has it. Unfortunately only really usable when using at least 3 imho and gets pretty useful in pools (hey Shadowrun)

Let’s see if micro.blog still works for me. More #rpgaday

  1. Favorite character. Another hard one. Back in the day I built so many characters I used as NPCs… There was this hardcore bike ganger though for Shadowrun who always wore the knitted stuff from his sister who is knitting for him in rehab.

And more #rpgaday

  1. Smartest RPG you ever played. I dont know the name but it was a small indenpendently never published game that dosnt use dice but some mechanism for shifting your values in attack and defense and did some cool stuff without any dice for skill checks (which I cant remember unfortunately)

  1. Favorite game you never get to play. That’s a hard one. If I really want to play something, I just tell people that I will run something and usually find players. But in the end I think it is Feng Shui.

  1. Oldest game you’ve played. Let’s chefk the Wikipedia. DnD 2nd is older than The Dark Eye 1st. There you have it :)

Let’s continue with #rpgaday

  1. First RPG bought (this year): I buy very selectively these days. And I think the only game I bought something for is Shadowrun

  2. Most recent game bought. As mentioned in 3: Something for Shadowrun. if talking about something new, it is Blade Runner.

Ok. I missed some days for #rpgaday

Thus I start now and post the first ten days.

  1. First RPG played this year: DnD 5. My regular group has a monthly game, so this is where it is at.

  2. First RPG Gamemaster: I think my brother…or a friend of his. This is like 35 years ago…

Regarding my last post about #Suse and anti-semitism. Lunduke seems to be problematic and has a personal grudge against the company. But I find nothing really from the company that counters his blog-post

openSUSE has at least a CoC (I don’t know how good it is written though; not my expertise) #linux

The best soundtrack to #Shadowrun is still the OST of Blade Runner by Vangelis.
