#Trideo Monster Madness

[bryanharryrombough]

So I was looking through some of my old Heavy Gear books (because I’m a middle-adged gamer given to bouts of nostalgia) and an entry in the Equipment Catalog for HG 2nd ed. reminded me of this post.

In that sourcebook there’s a “trideo” game called Trideo Monster Madness, a monster collecting/fighting game which includes super-deformed Gears among monsters that players can collect:

The moment I saw it, Trideo Monster Madness became my favourite piece of “equipment” in Heavy Gear, and I’ve always wanted to play an RPG within the world of TMM.

I made a Heavy Gear cheat sheet to make the game easier to play. Also some fun little gear doodles.If you would like to download a free PDF of this cheat sheet you can find it here https://ko-fi.com/s/5862bd1d30

Spotted on Phil's Desk: Chibi Chieftain Preview

HGB 2017 Kickstarter Preview: NuCoal Chibi Jerboa Add-On!

Xactoboy’s Chibi Gear family continues to grow.  As I’ve said before, I have no plans to buy any of the new HGB kickstarter plastics, but Phil’s superdeformed sculpts are tempting.  Maybe a “Trideo Monster Madness” mod...

The display hummed as it powered on, the air above it filling with static as the display processed the data from the game adapter.  Then, in a burst of light, words formed above the emitter: "Kenrou Electronics welcomes you to TRIDEO MONSTER MADNESS!"

"All right!" exclaimed Pablo and Hitoshi as they quickly grabbed their controllers.  Hitoshi asked Pablo, "What are you going to use?"

"My Super-Deformed Kodiak" Pablo replied proudly.

Hitoshi shook his head in mock consternation.  "Oh brother, my Top Hat Bahamut is going to kick your sorry Gear into the ground!"

From the Heavy Gear Equipment Catalogue.

Page after page of weapons & accessories, gadgets, explosives, drones, etc., but the coolest thing in that supplement, by far, was the videogame that your PCs played during their downtime between adventures!
