Hey all.  I love the Fallout setting, and I enjoy how much customization GURPS offers (I have 4 but I hear 3 is not too difficult to translate), though I'm not terribly familiar with running combat.  Here are some highlights of a game I'd love to play in.  I don't look on this forum often, so rMail is a good way to contact me if you're interested in running this game.  Here is my wishlist, though there's plenty of wiggle room if you want to tinker with some aspects.

  Number of Players: It could be anything from solo to about 4...I find 5 or more tends to make it hard for everyone to contribute.

  Factions: It would be nice for the players as a group to pick a few factions that we enjoy (Enclave, Brotherhood, etc) and be able to have something of a history with them.  Unlike many of the Fallout games, we could even be from a faction, such as the players being Followers of the Apocalypse, or an officer with the NCR.  I feel this opens up many storytelling opportunities.

  Goals: While the traditional Fallout game is pretty open-ended, I feel it would be good if the players could work together before we start the game to build an idea of what we as a party are interested in accomplishing, and our general ideology.  Not all factions and player types are compatible; a die-hard NCR supporter would probably not be able to adventure with a slaver indefinitely without it coming to violence.  If players have directly oppositional goals, it just seems unrealistic for them to spend any more time together than they absolutely have to.

  Tougher: While Fallout 3 and New Vegas are fun, I think a setting closer to the first and second games would be more interesting.  They were a little less silly, a little more lethal, and the combination brought the setting more to a true "wasteland."

I'll second this and would love to play if it ever got off the ground

Yeah, this has potential. I don't much care for the pnp (I think it's called?) but GURPS could probably be made to work, depending.

What sort of posting rate are you wanting?

  I'm flexible.  I'm good with anything from 1/day to 3/week.  Long as we're consistent.

Color me interested if this comes to pass.

Game is up:

  Hey, our last GM burned out.  Looking for a new GM for the same concept.  We already have four players with characters built.  Just shoot me an rMail if this sounds like a game you'd like to run.  :D

Id love to join as player if the ship gets moving again! :O

  Still looking.  :D

  Hey all, still looking.  It seems like there's no lack of player interest; we just need someone to run the game.  :D

In reply to Jarilye (msg # 11):
If there is still player interest, I might be able to pull something together for you all.

I'm still around. One of the original players.

In reply to Anachronist (msg # 13):

Okay, so what had you all done so far, would you want to maintain that same story, or would you prefer to take a fresh start?

Of the original group, we enacted a night attack on a group of raiders that had slaughtered a small farming settlement. The characters found some interesting camera footage on a laptop that was the hook for the next chapter.

I am good with either starting anew or continuing, although I would prefer to keep the same character regardless.

Hey, I sent Jarilye a link but nothing came of it, just realised perhaps they rmail was deleted on accident? If so, I'm still willing to gm!

I'm interested in this type of game as a player but I am unfamiliar and don't own Gurps.
