[lordsofthevideowasteland]

Threw a stripped down version of my forever WIP Video Wasteland RPG system in a blender with my medieval horror skirmish wargame system to create a video wasteland dungeon crawl called TAPE HUNT.

In this game, essentially, urban pirates in the eternal city of 1980s gangsploitation movies raid burned out industrial estates while high on magic drugs to nab interdimensional artifacts to sell to collectors. These artifacts are a lot of the time anomalous 35mm film or VHS tapes.

So i did about a days work on the system and playtested it and this is how it went.

Rolled up 3 hunters.

2 pitfaces (think urban punk gangbanger Knights), and an Abstract Exile (refugees from a more arthouse world). The pit faces are named Raver and Mashley and the Exile is named Lynch. Lynch has the head of an Ibis.

entered the building, explored the first 2 rooms,

Start drawing the map tile by tile, nothing crazy happens. Take a right, am hit with the the first sanity check- i give it to Raver, she fails, so the gang rolls up an anomaly- a silent hill 2 esque stairway into the darkness, dying sirens blaring in the night as they descend. This immediately increases the Threat Level to 2 before we've even entered the first skirmish.

Below they found an abandoned tapehunter camp, where they looted a full auto rifle which was handed to Mashley, one of the pitfaces who was only armed with a battle modded chainsaw and shurikens.

the camp was also haunted, but the haunted debuff was removed by the second pitface, Raver, who had taken the ability "fuck that spooky bullshit, man"

moving on to the next room, the first combat erupted. the tape hunters were surrounded by 3 BIO ZOMBIEs, 1 armed with a Riot Scythe, one with it's own Severed Puking Head, and the third with a gore encrusted MAUL.

The Abstract Exile, Lynch, took the initiative. He ran around the obstacles in the room, and the holes in the floor (randomly generated), and heavily wounded the riot scythe wielding zombie with his Hypertech Distortion Pistol.

The zombie went next, just missing Lynch with a swipe of it's massive black steel weapon.

Next up came Mashley, she darted forward, blasting at the Riot Scythe weilding zombie with her auto-rifle, putting an end to the creep forever.

Unfortunately, she left Raver behind, Who was immediately drenched in a gout of acidic vomit from the head weilding zombie. She, lacking armor, failed her save, and took an affliction- BLEED. With no healing spells or first aid kits to be found, Raver knew she was going to be dead by the middle of round 2.

Lynch attempted his special skill- REWIND, but the turn played out largely the same, wasting his rare ability.

At the start of round 2, another zombie showed up, as was the randomly rolled condition of the skirmish. This one weilded a festering mutated tentacle.

Raver screamed for her allies to just run, as she bled out, rising almost instantly as another BIO ZOMBIE. Since I forgot she was carrying a chainsaw as well as the rifle, her zombie would be unarmed, as bio zombies cant use guns.

The zombies ALL passed their charge rolls, and therefore would be pursuing the survivors into the next room.

The survivors passed their sanity checks- no anomalies ahead.

The terrain for the next room was to be three full cover terrain pieces in favor of the enemy, and one full cover and one half cover for the hunters, with the zombies in hot pursuit.

The encounter rolled up was to be a KILLDROID and it's SQUATGANGER engineer master.

The Killdroid lurched out of cover, scanning the darkness, but to no avail, Mashley and Lynch were pressed against a pillar, out of line of sight

Lynch knew the undead would be on their heels soon enough, so raced forward, ducking into the cover the Killdroid came from, using it's advantage against it. he let rip with his distortion pistol, but missed the horrific machine with both blasts.

The Squatganger fired his autorifle at Lynch, but lynch ducked back behind the cover, taking not even a glancing blow.

Mashley panicked, not sure whether to help her strange bird headed partner in crime, or get the drop on the approaching undead. She opted to go into overwatch, and take fire at the zombies as they emerged. Her auto rifle SHREDDED the puking horror that kiled her friend, but her friends own animated cadaver was upon her in an instant, attempting to grapple her- but failing!

The Killdroid stomped toward lynch, unpacking it's mighty KILLSAW, but the slow lumbering machine was no match for Lynch's agility, and only barely inflicted a flesh wound. He fired again at the droid, his shots going wide as he dodged and weaved.

Unfortunately, while lynch was dodging the Killdroids saw, the Squatganger managed to get a good line of sight, and put a splattery end to the Therianthrope with their autorifle.

Mashley ran, throwing herself into a gap in the westmost pillar, where the Squatganger had just left. The undead slowly approached from one side, and the engineer and their walking weapon turned to face her position.

beyond them, she glimpsed what they must have been guardeing- a vault locked with a password. Surely some good stuff was hidden in there. She almost let herself feel a glimmer of hope.

The slimy sounds of a slithering tentacle were approaching , so she whipped around and blasted the approaching ghoul into jam, but her rifle ran dry in the process.

the Killdroid clanked forward, and the squatganger tried to repeat the trick they had done on Lynch, but couldn't quite get close enough. Shrapnel from the pillar cut into Mashley's arm, and dented her shoulder armor beyond use.

She was out of options. She cast her rifle to the groud, and popped out of cover just long enough to fling a volley of shurikens at the squat ganger. one of the graphene microblades caught the bastard in the throat, and he died choking on his own blood.

She had no time to smile, however, as the burning red eyes of the Killdroid drew closer. It lowered it's Death ray, and from the arm that it had been using to steady it's sights, it SHUNK out a pneumatic KILLBLADE.

It struck- and the blow hit home. Mashley's death was mercilessly quick, but mercifully painless.

... The tape hunt was at it's end.

If i was a gaming group, I would then have rerolled characters again but with 10 bonus points per kill achieved on the previous run for buying gear and skills.

So that's fun!

I think I'm on to something!
