Well there is a chance, a darned small one. <br />Don't like an entry on the chart, change it, one could make a campaign specific Experience Bonus table and it isn't going to break the game.<br /><br />A GW game master could also pillage MF for the large number of mutant beasties which do not turn up in GW.JDJarvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691101939920824546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-15109096466177166822009-08-14T06:08:27.979-07:002009-08-14T06:08:27.979-07:00So I downloaded a copy of Mutant Future yesterday ...So I downloaded a copy of Mutant Future yesterday and read through it (my local game store did NOT have a copy in print), and it wasn't quite what I expected. A curious hybrid between LL and GW was NOT what I had in mind, and I'm not sure I like the advancement system (a 7th level character with a potential 7 attacks per round? What?).<br /><br />It is definitely NOT your father's Gamma World (or mine for that matter). I did appreciate the section on combining LL with MF (nicely thought out and worded), but I'll have to do a more in depth read before I decide to run it. In some ways it is even more wa-hoo than GW (you can play a mutant plant?) and I was looking for something maybe a little less.<br /><br />I WILL take a second gander, but the first impression wasn't promising.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08532311924539491087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-39702840916581966752009-08-14T03:17:09.870-07:002009-08-14T03:17:09.870-07:00Mutant Future is a pretty snazzy system.

It isn't quite Gamma World.<br /><br /><i>I actually prefer the original GW combat system (weapon class versus armor class) as I feel it better models the post-apocalyptic world.</i><br /><br />The 1/2e GW combat rules have some interesting idiosyncrasies that probably deserve more notice, such as Combat Fatigue.Matthew Slepinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04056247825064943944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-73621976317152660012009-08-13T10:53:38.853-07:002009-08-13T10:53:38.853-07:00I love MF.

I've used it for Super heroes, Space Opera, Pulp Noir, and a High magic / Gene punk setting (using the Mutants and Mazes rules.) It's really a versatile little game, maybe one day I will use it for a Post Apocalypse game.<br /><br /><br />on a side note:<br />Mutant Future is a major source of inspiration for the BX "Ice Age Adventures" rpg that me and my fiance are working on.BlUsKrEEmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050270487818381832noreply@blogger.com
