Hey Gruffty!

[ThunderChilde]

I am looking for a sober assessment from someone who has written a few lifepath event tables. What is your unvarnished opinion of the tables in Scouts?

 

[Gruffty]

Erm......! :rofl:

I will have to take a look at them and feed back to you - Scout is on my "to read" list, as I have been busy a-Hiver-ing away on my own stuff. I'll take a look and get back to you.

Briefly: they do the job they're intended for, although I'm not sure that they would all fit my vision of the Scouts. They give a wide variety of outcomes, which is really what you're wanting from such tables. There's nothing in there that makes me take a sharp intake of breath and go "ooohh, nonononono that's not right".

Thank you for getting back to me on this. I my self had the "ohnonononononononono" responce. 6 test characters and none managed more than three terms before up and out occured. o:
3 Terms 1
2 Terms 3
1 Terms 2

Just don't like the graft, deciet, betrayals and loads of enemies, these ARE scouts fer Cleon's sake. If these tables are this rough, they should give a free copy of Prison Planet out with every copy of Scoundrels, the character will probably still be in jail when the game starts. Aughta have 4-5 MOJ agents personally looking for them too.:rofl:
