Blade Runner The Roleplaying Game Coming December 13

Blade Runner The Roleplaying Game Coming December 13 #rpg #ttrpg #bladerunner

Walk the mean streets of Los Angeles 2037 in the new tabletop roleplaying game, Blade Runner The Roleplaying Game. Free League has announced that the game will be officially released on December 13. The game is now available for pre-order in the Free League webshop, which gives access to the PDF ahead of the physical release. The game invites you into an evocative world of conflicts and…

I was skeptical when Free League announced their Alien RPG, yet it became one of my favorite horror RPGs. Like, instantly. The Blade Runner franchise is less picked over — two movies, both of which I enjoyed, an animated series I’ve not yet seen, some book and comics that don’t cast a terribly long shadow. And yet, again, Free League announced an RPG and I was skeptical (note that in both these cases, skepticism did not prevent me from, you know, buying the games).

This is the Blade Runner Starter Set (2022), which, like Alien, has a light version of the rules, dice, cards and a cinematic scenario, complete with a rather decadent envelope of handouts. The production value here is very high — this was probably Free League’s finest looking product until the release of Dragonbane, and even then the margin is narrow.

The system is a modified Year Zero. This is the first time it’s used different valued dice, but success is still a 6, so higher value skills have greater chances of success. The rest of the system seems pretty generic — combat is essentially unchanged from the last few YZE games I’ve read, there is a stress mechanic, and so on. There is a cool chase mechanic, where each sides selects secret maneuvers and the GM pulls a random obstacle, then all the participants hash out a resolution, then resolve or continue the chase from there. There is a lot of framework for investigation, too — a digital assistant, ways to leverage assets and so on.

It all feels good but I’m still a little unsure. It didn’t have that magic a-ha that Alien did. I want to see it in play, and I’m not sure when I am going to get it to the table. It’s handsome though, and nails that early cybernoir aesthetic squarely — its so smooth and dreary and rainy it almost seems like an entirely different genre than other modern cyberpunk games. If for nothing else, I appreciate it for that. On the other hand, the only character class is “Cop,” which doesn’t feel good at all.

Terminal State is live on Kickstarter.

Terminal State is our new cyberpunk tabletop roleplaying game, powered by the Year Zero Engine. (You may know the Year Zero Engine from Free League games like Blade Runner, Alien, Vaesen, Twilight: 2000, Coriolis, Forbidden Lands, The Walking Dead, and Tales From the Loop.)

Terminal State presents a new vision of cyberpunk that is rooted in our present, rather than an 80s retro-future. A world in the grip of rapacious hyper-corps and surrounded by near-orbital rings where the rich live in luxury. A world where new forms of humanity -- fabricants, ringers, and neo -- now struggle to survive, alongside their creators. A world where the real currency is your reputation.

Terminal State is also a robust toolkit for playing your own cyberpunk campaigns with the Year Zero Engine, with highly customizable character options, weapons, vehicles, and of course, cybernetic and biomorphic augments.

If you'd like to know more, you can download the Terminal State QuickStart for free right now -- click below.

We hope you'll give Terminal State a look and consider backing it, because we'd love to share it with you. Thank you!

Some of your Patrochilles headcannons? 😋

Since you weren't specific, I'll give you a range:

1. Sorry Supergiant Games, but Achilles is not a Thor knockoff. Besides the lack of modern nutrition and healthcare, his descriptions (e.g. swift-footed) invoke imagery of a gymnast. Grace and agility are the domains of gymnasts. Female gymnasts are typically about 5'. Male gymnasts are about 5'3".

Now say you want to counter me and argue that his epithets are about running. Fine. Even better. Runners are fucking short!! With the exception of some sprinters for the very short races (e.g. Bolt), runners aren't big. Think about the physics. Height creates drag which reduces speed.

I think you need to unlearn Western beauty standards and toxic masculinity.

So here are my hcs for height (left Iliad, right modern AUs):

Patroclus' height is debatable. Given that he was a great wrestler, I made him big.

2. A bit more on physical characteristics:

Achilles - Achilles has really nice curls (3A or 2C) that are golden blonde. He keeps his hair long down to his shoulder blades or mid-back. He has green eyes. His body is toned and sleek like a runner. Not a lot of bulk to him. He can’t grow a beard for shit. Or chest hair (his body hair is very light blonde and fine). Yes, he does shave his chest. And Pyrrha will shave her legs. He has golden skin. In Iliad/TSoA/Hades Game the skin tone is borderline unnatural looking.

Patroclus - Patroclus has wavy/curly (2B or 2C) that are very dark brown or black. He keeps his hair short. He has brown eyes. He has facial hair like Dev Patel in The Green Night (I like his hair for Pat too!) and a tasteful amount of chest hair. He is muscular. This is close to what he looks like (though a bit more muscular than the model and with a little more chest hair tool). In my head while I was reading the books, I pictured him with olive skin. But I am a very big fan of Black Patroclus!! Overall, he is very average looking.

3. I'm taking a page out of @darlingsart book and saying Achilles has a bellybutton piercing. It's very blingy, very VMAs Britney Spears.

4. Achilles is professionally skilled at blowjobs. I'm talking expert-master level. As I mentioned many times before, Patroclus is hung. 9 inches and thick like a coke can. Sinking something with such girth down your throat takes practice.

5. Achilles is bigender. He is both a man and a woman. He is not geNdeRfLUid. He identifies as both genders. Sometimes he's a guy, and he likes to be called Achilles. Sometimes she's a girl, and she likes to be called Pyrrha.

At times gender can definitely be a source of stress for Achilles. He loves having a boy pussy and a girl cock, but sometimes he wants a girl pussy too. And boobs. He’s greedy and it can be frustrating that he can’t have it all at the same time.

Patroclus doesn’t really understand Achilles’ ‘gender thing.’ He sees Pyrrha as more of a roleplay persona than an actual gender/person. So you could say he’s a bit transphobic. (I'm also a huge huge huge fan of trans Pyrrha)

6. Achilles could best be described as a feral housewife. “He doesn’t cook, doesn’t clean...” type except undomesticated. Anger issues and the inability to keep his mouth shut means he’s incompatible with the modern workforce. He’s also incredibly spoiled.

I agree with some authors that he could be a singer/musician, dancer, gym instructor, dance instructor, model, and professional athlete. But your typical 9-5 does not work for him.

Patroclus would make a great doctor (my preferred profession for him), veterinarian, or EMT. I can also see him as a lawyer or firefighter.

7. Patroclus is a Soft Dom/Daddy. Achilles is a brat (sub). Achilles typically bottoms but only because he’s a needy cockslut. They are exclusively monogamous. Achilles is Patroclusexual and Patroclus is into feet (bisexual).

8. Achilles can’t sleep without Patroclus. If Patroclus ever has to go on an overnight work trip and he can’t bring Achilles, he has to stay on the phone with Achilles until he falls asleep. Achilles is usually a hyperventilating sobbing mess.

9. On the rare occasions that Patroclus had to shave his beard, Achilles was left sobbing. Inconsolable. It was like the end of the world for him.

10. I have a lot of thoughts on cooking. Iliad/TSoA/Hades Game Achilles can do basic cooking (especially soups and stews) and grilling. This was learned on Pelion. He cannot bake. Like at all. Yeast won’t rise. Sugar and salt will be mixed up. Baking powder and baking soda will be mixed up. It’s a disaster.

Modern AU Achilles can’t cook or bake AT ALL. He has no patience for it, so food is either burnt, overcooked, or undercooked. For the longest time, he thought the smoke detector going off was a food timer to let him know when the food was done. All his friends and family know this and will do anything to get out of eating his food. Except Patroclus. Pat will eat anything with a smile on his face. Of course, no one has the heart to tell him his cooking is terrible. Not that he would believe them because Patroclus already told him he enjoys his cooking and Patroclus’ opinion is the only one that matters. This is why you shouldn’t lie, Patroclus. You made your bed and now you need to lie in it.

You can find more of my thoughts under the my hcs tag.

Also, to anyone reading this ask... I got this ask maybe 2-3 days ago. Either yesterday or the day before I got 3 asks that have gotten lost in my inbox. If you sent me asks in that time period, please resend.

Substance_D. I started this piece sometime ago around the release date of Cyberpunk 2077 and given that CDProject Red has finally finished the game(which I knew they eventually would), it made sense to finish off this piece. And I have to say, it's a fun game with interesting characters, non-linear levels, quest lines, and fantastic voice acting. And ofcourse the visuals. Holy shit! It's insane how CDPR has been able to merge so many of Cyberpunk influences from Blade Runner, GITS, Akira, Dredd, PKD's work, Gibson's work especially so much from Johnny Mnemonic! In most open-world games, I find myself using the fastest means of transport to just get to the objective but in this case, I found myself walking around and later double-jumping and dash around the world. I'm really glad that CDPR was able to deliver this even after the debacle. I would highly recommend the game in it's current state.

Now for some spoilers- Certain interactions and choices just made no sense, like V's reaction to seeing Reeds kill the twins. My version of V had made people commit mass suicide on overdrive for an NCPD sidequest. I wished the game incorporated more roleplay-based elements in there. Near the end I almost played like a Cyberpyscho but without the consequences. When I started the game, I missed the 3rd person cinematics cos in most games they add that character-player familiarity and actually make you care a bit more but then I played the Temperance ending which I think is the best ending of the game. Without spoiling much- playing this ending had me eat my words- you see your V for the first time in the 3D world(not counting mirrors or when riding bikes) creating this out-of-body experience as you play as Johnny now, it's harrowing, especially to see your V begging Johnny to make a decision and anyone who has paid attention to Johnny's ramblings throughout the game, it only made sense for him take the body. I know a lot of people are going to disagree but man, it's been ages since I played a game where I had to actually think about my decision.

Gangs of Titan City

by Nick Spence

[Print & PDF]

Gangs of Titan City puts you in control of a gang of desperate outcasts fighting for survival. You’ll start out as a small fish in a very big and murky pond and steadily wrestle control of more of the city away from not only your gangland rivals, but also the institutions that want to crush you. 

Make big plays and seize what you want, then deal with the fallout of your actions. You’ll find yourself pressed in on all sides whether it’s other gangs, corrupt authorities or deadly mutants. How will you handle the pressure? What price will you pay, what sacrifices will you make to stay ahead?

Gangs of Titan City uses simple and flexible 2d6 design to be intuitive and fast moving. The dice provide tools to players and The Narrator to craft compelling stories about gangs who claw their way to towering heights and sometimes fall to terrifying depths. The game comes with a toolbox of gang archetypes, gang member playbooks, rules for arcane and unknowable tech, sector hexmap generation tools and a rogue’s gallery to cautiously deal and ferociously battle with.

Drawing inspiration from a wide range of sources, Gangs of Titan City is a game for anyone who loves grimdark cyberpunk, dystopian futures, or criminal stories of rise and fall. If you’re a fan of Necromunda, Fallout, Judge Dredd & 2000AD, Borderlands, Altered Carbon, Blade Runner, Mad Max or Mos Eisley stories, then this is a game for you.

I was exposed to the concepts of cyberpunk in the 80's through books such as William Gibson's Neuromaner and Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. I also enjoyed the Roleplaying Games like Cyberpunk! and Shadowrun. Movies such as Blade Runner and later Johnny Mnemonic helped build that world.

I have mentioned Ghost in the Shell and how it challenged the concepts of what it means to be human.

To me, cyberpunk also deals with human tragedies such as loneliness. That is what I am trying to capture here. You may see this theme pop up now and then through my Human interfaces AI art.

7. describe your favorite relationship dynamic. (can be any kind, platonic, romantic, familial, antagonistic, etc.) & 10. what genre do you most enjoy, whether in roleplay, or fiction as a whole? (fantasy, period, superhero, etc.)

describe your favorite relationship dynamic. (can be any kind, platonic, romantic, familial, antagonistic, etc.)

my diehard dynamic is one that perseveres through the odds. it doesn't matter if it's platonic, romantic, or familial namely - what matters is that they face extreme trials through their entire story and still make it through to the end, and with their bond intact, even if their perspective of one another has changed. i've been through sooo many fandoms and rpcs at this point, and i think that a lot of my favourite dynamics have revolved around this sort of dynamic; where the two people won't let the world break them apart.

washington and carolina in red vs blue falls into this, because they were the only two agents from project freelancer left in the end, and they were basically like siblings once it got to that point. cayde-6 in destiny had an undying bond with the other vanguard (zavala and ikora) through the events of the first and second games, until he... well... let's just say i have a track record of my favs dying or almost dying.

but okay, if i have to pick a specific dynamic, i'm on board with mentor/mentee the most - barring platonic and romantic dynamics, because i like my muses to have friends and happiness, but mentor/mentee dynamics are just... chefs kiss. like yes, i want other muses to guide my muse through the trials and tribulations of life. i want my muse to have parent-like figures who don't actually seek to overrule that role in their lives, just being in their corner, wanting to see them grow as a person and be a part of the reason they do. i want my muse to LEARN from other muses. whether it's by shadowing them or by being asked question after question... i love it so much.

what genre do you most enjoy, whether in roleplay, or fiction as a whole? (fantasy, period, superhero, etc.)

my top two genres are sci-fi and fantasy. but okay, that's pretty broad, right? there are a LOT of subcategories here. and yes, i like basically all of them, but i'll name a specific one for each:

sci-fi? dystopian. but like... blade runner dystopian. westworld dystopian. cyberpunk dystopian. worlds where the lines blur and you're left to question where you're meant to draw the line. sure, i like more traditional sci-fi too - such as mass effect, one of my favourite games of all time - but there's something i love to explore in the idea of dystopian fiction the most, and in anything that is inherently sci-fi based, these can apply.

as for fantasy? my main one is historical fantasy. yeah, i like my high fantasy, i definitely like my dark fantasy, but honestly... i love things that are fantastical while still having historical connections. i think highlander REALLY sealed the deal for me on this one - and if not that, then obviously anything ancient mythos related, but... yeah. dark fantasy is just such a close second. (if you squint, you can tell i'm a massive bioware fanboy who adores their trademark series.)
