	In Response To: Re: role play (Max Etchemendy) i am tired, i dont have anything to say, just replying to say that i am still watching this post :-) : Huzzah, someone familiar with the GURPS System! Visit : http://marathon.stormpages.com if you haven't already, and see what I : have online. : My site doesn't mention GURPS Lite...I suppose adding a link to the FAQ might : be a good idea, since a lot of the interested people seem to be Marathon : fans new to GURPS, rather than GURPS fans new to Marathon. Sadly, the : truth is that GURPS Marathon is a pretty "hardcore" sourcebook, : in that you won't get maximum usage without owning $80-$100 of additional : books currently published by SJ Games...I'm not sure how far you could get : just on GURPS Lite. : A lot of talk has been going on about the "gun shield" thing. This : really isn't a rule I would use, nor is it in the book; it's just an idea : for Johannes, so he can integrate it into any game he players. I'm neither : defending nor condemning the use of any "gun shield" rule. (In : other words, since it's not in the actual book, I'm done talking about : it.) : Well, see GURPS Robots for robot combat rules. Juggernauts beware the : creative (and, if he's lucky, cinematically-superboosted) character. Good : luck and godspeed all ye Marathon security guards! I'll be staying back at : HQ... :-D : I'm actually surprised by how well people are taking the game balance issue. : I expected the zealous Marathon community, which is capable of spending : hours trying to justify Bungie reality-slips with far-fetched Story Page : posts (no insult intended to any Marathon fans; I've had my share of weird : "Marathon Guns" discussion posts), to be more upset by my : flagrant re-engineering of the combat balance. Yay! : Sincerely, : -Max Etchemendy
