BESM - and other things that sound like something else.

[wraithwitch]

Now my shiney Ascended Neuron is up and running I have been able to download things from Limewire. Top of the list has been 'Wolf's Rain', since I've been meaning to see that anime for a while. The verdict is, it's good, but odd - and very tragically doom-laden. I have a feeling half the cast or more will die before we reach the final episode

Ah, yes. I've had a copy of Wolf's Rain for a while, just haven't gotten around to seeing it so far... Doom-laden, huh?

Wish I had a chance to do more gaming, but working so bloody far away makes it impractical - at least while my car count is dangerously low. :-(

I take it you no longer need an emergency keyboard.

no, thank you, I have a new computer and new keyboard to go with it (until I haywire that one I guess =P )

[stealthracer]

[wraithwitch]

[wraithwitch]

thank you! =)

it is however one of those systems that oif you start getting near ten iin any skill category, the attributes i mean, it becomes incumbent upon the gm to fiddle rules so the party don't insta-doom anything that you throw at tthem.

for instance the damage increasing abilities are sick techincally my pansy SLayers anime based shaman can punch for as much damage as well, a small hand gun, or small fireball lol, the rules are often abit poorly thought out, there is a lot of onine support and stuff you can d laod though.

i still intend to run a superpowered game using besm as its funky and gives versatility to create things like i dunno, mech driving super bunnies with telekinetic powers and a hand cannon cpapable of melting through ten feet of steel.
