Forums at irishgaming.com » Midway: Re: A question about skills I don’t have
Friday, 21 October 2011 21:16
The underlying rules to the system can be summed up as
1) Keeping things as simple as possible.
2) Ensure that diversity of character types does not suffer.
To that end, skill are constructed as simply and robustly as possible. That said, if one skill can do everything, then there’s no reason not to just take that, and that stifles creative play. Having multiple medic skills, each with a different focus, allows for multiple medic characters to co-exist and interact, making for a richer and more rewarding game experience for everyone.
If you want fluff-based reasoning, here’s something for you to ruminate on:
NotCanonNotCanonNotCanonNotCanonNotCanon
“Surgery is a relatively recent re-discovery, and there’s a awful lot of banks left to be filled in. It’s a risky process, and if something goes wrong, even in a simple procedure, there is a very good chance the patient will die. Similar to when it was being developed in the first place back in the Renaissance period, there’s a lot of mistrust from established medical practitioners (herbalists & people skilled in first aid), who may tend to view surgeons as a bit ghoulish and dangerous, just like the old surgeons of the past were.
Also, surgeons are more interested in digging around in the ruins of pre-End civilisation, seeking to rediscover old medical tech. Again, this is something which may not sit entirely well with traditional groups, who may have a mild technophobia (after all, it was man messing with things he was not meant to that caused the End, right?).
As a result, the establishment may refuse to share their knowledge with those who practice or study surgery.”
An in-game, non-rules-based reason for why a surgeon doesn’t know first aid – the people who knew the techniques just didn’t trust him enough to share their knowledge.
Regarding the vagaries of gun use:
“During the End, many experimental weapons were used. One such was the “Peacemaker Bomb”. A combination of mind-altering chemicals and nanotech, the purpose of the bomb was to render a population incapable of defending itself with advanced weaponry by directly attacking that portion of the brain which affects hand-eye-coordination should a person seek to use any weapon more advanced than a bow and arrow.
Designed to be a temporary effect, the Peacemaker was ultimately too successful. The nanotech in the bomb reacted with other nano-, bio- and edric-variant technologies which had been unleashed into the atmosphere during the days of the End. The longevity of the nanotech was dramatically increased, and the Peacemaker insinuated itself into the very soil and water itself. Over the centuries, it has spread across the land (indeed, the world), infecting every human from the moment of their conception.
However, the violence of man is not so easily repressed. Several meditative tools have been slowly cobbled together by those who would wish to reclaim the power of the ancients, making it possible for a dedicated warrior to learn how to overcome the effects of the Peacemaker. Unfortunately, it has not yet been possible to completely overcome the Peacemaker, as it is far too prevalent in the human body. Instead, a warrior must learn a different set of mental techniques for each weapon they wish to become proficient with.”
Yes, rogue nanotech in your bloodstream did it. Oh, yeah? Well who are you to say that pre-End technology wasn’t capable of such a thing? Are you from the distant future? Just accept that you all study gun-kata, and move on.
What’s edric-variant technology? ...Nothing you need concern yourself about, honest. Just ignore that bit entirely. *nonchalant whistle*
NOTE: The above pieces of fluff are not canon or in-game facts. I made them up on the spur of the moment simply to illustrate an example of an in-game reasoning for what may seem to be arbitrary OOC mechanics.

Friday, 21 October 2011 16:36
I've been talking with a GCD photography student called Sylwia about a project she's doing. She's looking to take photos of "people with interesting hobbies" and I figured we all count. If you're interested, her post is in the "General Discussion" forum, or you can go from here - viewtopic.php?f=2&t=774

Friday, 21 October 2011 06:31
I'm a photography student at Griffith College Dublin and I'm currently working on a photo essay project about not so usual hobbies.
I'm basically doing a series of portraits; very simple, straight on photos but I also need to show the hobbies in the images. So if the person is a RPG fan, I need to include some artefacts suggesting it in the photograph, or if someone collects comic books/board games, etc., I would need to photograph the person in front of them, and so on.
My main visual inspiration for this is a project done by Steve Schofield (see the link: http://www.steveschofield.co.uk/#!__land-of-the-free). He photographed science-fiction costumers only, I want to show different hobbyists. Age, gender doesn't matter, it's all about various ways of spending your free time.
So if you're interested in posing for me, or if you know someone else willing to stand in front of the camera, please let me know.
Cheers
Sylwia

Thursday, 20 October 2011 22:49
I think the ability to free action is fun, especially when its trivial stuff but adds to the flavour. I'm all about useless social or background skills with my PCs and being able to develop Sewerage or write letters to my Ma every month, takes such an edge off combat and levelling. There's more to do than just that.
Thirdly, and probably most importantly - The players. Its great craic, for a bunch of redneck gun totin' idiot savants that make up Midway, we're so communal. As if insulting and shooting each other is only allowed for citizens of Midway. The fact you only have a few XP to spend means people have lots of wiggle room on character concept, so the diversity of concept is great.

Lustre's correct. Ambidex didn't make a great deal of a difference when you can't hit someone more than once in a second anyway, and was limiting folk in terms of what they could carry and use when and where.

Forums at irishgaming.com » Tabletop RPG: What do you think happens next?
Saturday, 30 April 2011 05:49
The scenario: it's July 2013, law and order have collapsed, and you're a bandit in Turkey. You and your 14 buddies control a bridge over a river. One day a heavy military truck races towards your bridge at full speed. You open the fight by successfully firing an RPG into the truck's engine. The reply is a burst of automatic fire - it misses. Momentum carries the truck over the bridge; your men, low on ammo, fire potshots but fail to damage the truck further. A second burst of automatic fire injures your man who fired the RPG.
The truck soon veers off the raised road into a field of long grass. Your gang follows up, unsure of what they'll find. They approach with caution, and rightly so - as soon as they move into visual contact with the truck and its scattered contents they come under grenade fire. They fall back, one of them badly injured. Assessing the situation you determine there's just one man left in the truck. You carefully move into position and kill him, but lose two men to a grenade: one dead, another injured.
You now have:
1 dead
3 injured, with at least 2 in need of urgent medical attention
10 uninjured men (plus yourself) with rifles but low on ammunition.
A heavily damaged truck with assorted goods; value and type unknown, but this could be worth a lot.
You don't know how many other enemies there were. They are not in sight. The right-side cab door of the truck is open. Securing the immediate area while you decide what to do, one of your men says he thinks there are recent tracks leading away through the long grass, going in two directions. From the blood on the grass you're sure that at least one enemy who went into the grass was bleeding. All is quiet.
You need to get your injured men to a doctor - there's a hospital not too far away, in poor condition by pre-collapse standards but much better than nothing. You want to take the goods from the truck, and the truck itself is clearly never moving again, so recovery will take time. You don't care one way or the other about the enemy fighters, except for the possibility they might come back and attack you. It has now been several minutes since the fight started.
What do you do?

Leprecon 32 » You’ve found an item!
Monday, 28 February 2011 21:54
There are lots of opportunities to spend money at cons, but at Leprecon this year, we’ve got a weekend-long Special Event that gives you a different kind of opportunity.
In certain places about the hall, there’ll be treasure chests, These chests will be stocked with things donated from the Gamers room and from the committee. If you open the box, and there’s something in it, you can take it! But even these days, we all have more than we need. Our inventories are full. To pick up the item in the chest, you have to leave something there in return. We’re going to take this chance to clear space for new RPG books by passing on ones that don’t get the attention they deserve anymore, so if there are any at home gathering dust, bring them along and see what you might be able to find in exchange!
Good luck!
Emily,
Special Events

Midway Announcements » One Week On From Event VI and Planning for Event VII
Friday, 25 February 2011 10:55
We're one week past Event VI and all in all the feedback we're receiving is all very positive. Pretty much every player I've spoken to so far has said they really enjoyed it and it was one of the best we've run so far... so that's now the standard we have to live up to and improve upon.
We're now in the planning stages for our next event "Event VII" on Saturday (yes that's Saturday) April 2nd. This is going to be our first full day event starting at 11AM til 8PM (Details as always are on the Events Page). As always we'll be arranging a bus to and from the event from Dublin City Centre, details will follow in another post once we've arranged things. There's also some talk from our players on the Forum about heading to a pub after for a few drinks.
We'd really like to make this event our biggest ever and we've lots of plans, plots and suprises planned but to make it successful we need you, your friends, your family and anyone else you can think of to come along (as long as they're over 18 of course), so please go out and tell everyone about Midway and all the fun you've had at it or if you haven't attended an event ask your friends who have and we're sure they'll tell you to come along! Spread the word! Join us and Welcome to the Beginning...
If you are planning to come along please drop us an email ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) or reach out via our Contact Form.
Please also check out our Rules and Backround Documents and all the info you need to Create a Character.
NOTE: The Current Rules (Rules 1.4) are currently under Review, we hope to have a new Rules Document out before the Event but in the meantime please refer to Rules 1.4
On another note some of our friends have been creating some Motivational Posters. Check them Out below:

You're right; it's not cheating as locks aren't covered by the rules at all. It is utter bullshit though.

It's already been stated that there'll be a ruling by the next game. Why would you want to "force a ruling" anyway? Why would you act so antagonistically towards the people who provide this game for you?

Monday, 14 February 2011 17:06
In discussion with El Gogz we got to thinking about the game, and the system, and specifically Literacy. Having Literacy as a skill that isn't a default in the game provides us with a lot of fun role-playing, and we feel that putting an IC document on what is primarily an OOC forum runs contrary to allowing that whole opportunity for role-play. Instead, we'll be letting the Charter exist as an IC document, and be seen/read/burned/whatever as an IC document.
Sorry for the confusion.

Bazleebub wrote:It seems to me that the intent is for each rank of firearm you get a reload and that the firearm skill without the phys rep would still get you the reloads.
That's my assumption, too. We'll have to see how it pans out.
Bazleebub wrote:If you can see a way it could work or a suggestion that could help go for it.
One possible idea is that it could be tied to the physrep of the magazine. Practically speaking, a reload lammy isn't going to be any use unless you have a spare magazine/clip/bullet-holding-device-of-choice, and most people with multiple reloads are going to have a spare, loaded, magazine with them for the extra reload.
So, you could just say "you must have a magazine/clip of the appropriate type in order to use a reload lammy", and then you're good to go. If we just take that a step further, we can say that the magazine is separate from the reload lammy, and once it's empty, you need to get the bullets to reload it somehow, either by attaching a full reload lammy of the correct type, or trading in the correct number of bullet/other reload-type lammies with GOD.
This would justify having bullet lammies, and gives a reason why reloads, in general, would be worth trading around - if I have an empty AR magazine and a couple of Shotgun reloads, it's suddenly worth my time to go trading for the extra bullets to load up my mag.
I'm making the assumption that a bullet will work in any gun type, regardless of the original source, by the way. I'm not going to get into the debate concerning the compatibility of different calibre ammunition - future-tech handwavium did it, that's how.
