I would love to be a part of that campaign, especially if that was the only unusual part.

"Hmm, let me check my inventory...ah, yes, the Stinger missile launcher!"

"Wait, what?"

You could very easily do something like that with HERO System or FUDGE.

Last time I played HERO System our party included both a literal fallen angel and a small walking tank driven by an AI among the player characters.

Or do some kind of Apocalypse World/Dungeon World hybrid.

It's always nice to run across a fellow Hero player. That's been my main system for a long time. I love being able to GM any genre or strange cross-genre that occurs to me.

Thanks for the advice! I'll look into it.

I'll have to try it. Any suggestions?

[–] InputZero@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

Play with friends. Don't get attached to any of your pals. They're chattel and should be treated as such. Good game.

The world (looking at the huge variety of guns with thousands of models that were made before the US even was a thing): Yes, American magic...

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Yes we all know when someone makes s joke about the excess use of guns we all know that are really taking about the Chinese and their rabid gun use.

Gun rabies is no joke. Make sure to have your firearm vaccinated!

I'll have you know guns are as American as apple pie!

Edit: Accidentally wrote "Apple pie" rather than "apple pie." Don't want to give them any ideas. I don't need food that only works with Apple appliances.

[–] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Sounds very American to just take over a whole concept and make their own 🤦

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (2 children)

Yes, America invented co-opting things.

Side note: I found this alongside similar images that seemed less intentionally ironic.

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

these are so fucking stupid and I love them

Me too. At a certain point, they become so absurd that they're funny rather than irritating.

[–] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Looks like an image that could go on to the hood of a pickup truck that surely also is an American thing 😂🤯

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I would be entirely unsurprised if I saw this on an F150 tailgate on the highway.

[–] Narauko@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That's close, but it really belongs painted on the side of a '70s panel van instead of a wizard with a unicorn, with shag carpet, a crushed velvet bed with the frame made of ammo boxes, and bead curtains made of bullets, and living in that van is a slightly more stoned Nicholas Cage from Lord of War who smells like pachouli and expended gun powder.

I don't know what this is, but I like it. You have a gift. I look forward to watching your movies.

[–] Narauko@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

And the apples are pine-apple fragmentation grenades. Just like grandma used to make

Yeah, grandma was something else:

According to my phone typing thingy half of all words belong to a corporation.

I mean, I guess if you want substandard crappy guns like Beretta, Heckler & Koch, Benelli, Browning Arms Company (yes, Browning), SIG Sauer, Springfield Armory, Chiappa, FN Herstal and more. And don't forget our Filipino friends at Rock Island Armory!

[–] Lembot_0001@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Springfield Armory, Browning Arms Company

Aren't they from the US?

[–] kersploosh@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

Browning is now owned by FN Herstal, though the Browning business unit is still headquartered in the US.

Springfield is privately owned by an American family.

Is that really a thing in Terraria?

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Everything is a thing in Terraria now! It’s insane.

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I'll have to revisit it. It's been a few years. What do I need to know?

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

If you get stuck on a boss the wiki can help. Otherwise have fun. And don't kill the cultist unless you're prepared

I just saw that you can now cast dragons breath in 9mm.

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Whoa. I thought that was shells only. That's almost a reversal of the comic. You ran out of bullets and started firing spells from the gun.

Does that qualify her as a technomage?

[–] mrodri89@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What if they put a nuclear reaction to shoot the bullet. Is that how we get star wars guns?

derp intensifies

I'm no nucular signtist, but I'd be a little reluctant to trigger a reaction of that kind anywhere near my hand.
