Question re: my Atorian Empire game @ the O.H.
Here is a question for all of you to ponder and hopefully respond to.
Would find it more fun to play as the powerful yet mysterious Atorians themselves (this would allow more of the Atorians, their methods, gear to be previewed) or play "against" the Atorians (rebels fighting the good fight, pirates, etc... this again would allow the Atorians methods, gear and the extremes they will go through to eliminate a problem.)
I may end up running both versions. Atleast one of these will be run as a scheduled game @ the Open House, the other will be an unscheduled game @ the Open House or as a pick me up game @ hotel.
I am leaning towards the first idea to be run as my main scheduled game.
Thanks for listening and responding.
(And yes, I am still running a Splicers game as well @ the Open House)

Here's a thought:
Run the first group as a team of Atorians sent to secure a strategic resource (whether that be a place, thing, or even person). Then, the second group could be tasked with retaking the objective (if the first group is unseccessful, a second force could have captured it). With a little work, I think this would be incredibly fun to play (and GM).

I may just have to run both and let the Splicers game be the after hours game.

Play as the Atorians so you can get a better feel for thir gear.

We had real books not PDFS and we carried them on carts we pulled ourselves that we built by hand. We had Thaco and we were happy. If we needed dice we carved ours out of wood. Petrified wood just because we could.

Plus, if you throw in Quester's idea then the player group could have a couple of the gadgets too. Plus, then we can see the Atorians in all their glory rather than wondering if we're actually living up to what they're supposed to be.
Hardcore, badass, man-hating b*tches, I could find a couple of my ex-GFs to play them.

I actually plan on running both versions... 1st game against, 2nd game as.
