One Shot.

 I was thinking about  Robotech  this morning, and the old Robotech RPG by Palladium. In the anime, most enemy destroids go down in one, maybe two hits. If you play anything by Palladium you'll know  nothing  goes down in a single hit. A shot might do 2d6x10 mega damage (that's 2d6 x 1000 normal damage), but an enemy destroid might have 500, 600, 1500 MDC, and can tank two or three hits. Not really cinematic, that. And I was thinking, 'how would you make it cinematic, then'? Well, there's a few games that have a really good way of doing that, I think. Mob Rules   In games like  Godbound , or  Outgunned , the entire 'mob' of bad guys have a single pool of hit points. Depending on how big and tough they are, they might have more attacks, do more damage, have extra special tricks, or whatever. And when the heroes attack, you can describe them gunning down 2, 3, 10 opponents in a row as the pool of hit points drops. In Godbound this is especially good...

Interview with the CEO

Q: Good morning, would you please introduce yourself for our audience? A: My name is Christopher LaHaise, CEO of Fool's Moon Entertainment; and incidentally the lead writer for most of the projects there.   Q: How did you get started with Fool's Moon? A: A friend was interested in one of my game worlds, and helped start the company to see that game get published. Funny enough, it never did -- the project was just too big, so I wound up writing other projects instead. I still want to get back to it though, just need to break it down into smaller chunks.   Q: What was the first game you got published? A: Technically , my first game to ever sell was a wrestling game I wrote in the 1980s and sold off to a friend for $10. I've considered writing a third edition of it some time, maybe when I stop trying to write every other game under the sun. However, my first actual published game was Fox Magic in the early 00s.   Q: Tell us about Fox Magic, and what inspired you. A: Fox Magi...

"Medieval" Fantasy

A group rides down a road.  On either side is farmland, peasants working the fields. There's an inn near the village, and in the distance is a walled city, with a castle in the centre. The group sees wagons with barrels, or hay, there's carriages carrying those of status, and people lug around wheelbarrows, ploughs, and farming tools. Yep.  That's medieval fantasy. But where's the fantasy part? A lot of world building for fantasy games completely ignore the fantasy aspect when it comes to actual civilization. Sure, there's elves, and dwarves, and dragons, and orcs, and wizards and priests. But ... civilization doesn't seem to acknowledge that the very presence of magic and monsters would fundamentally alter how civilization would be changed. Some anime are taking this into account now -- magic items to mimic things we'd see in the modern day and age (the 'magic microphone to broadcast in arenas' being a good example, flying podiums, teleportation gat...
