I didn't want to go into much detail about the adventure mainly
because I thought not many would be interested.
The primitives were TL6....we were cutting edge TL15 though we were
limited in resources.
They hadnt satellites but they did have slugthrowers and a very
efficient type of crossbow. They were only in the first room of the
underground complex because they didnt have the access code for the
inner doors.
I dont know how you run your games but we do not develop tech levels
simultaneously in other cultures....I mean that if the greatest
achievement of a culture is a TL10 laser..but the rest of their tech
is TL6 we assume them to have TL10- as that is the greatest possible
threat or help they could produce.
A bunch of primitives gesturing wildly with a WW2 rifle
at a bunch of Travellers(now thats a term that I aint heard in a
long time) with advanced combat rifles and some heavy laser support
is a joke...especially when we are wearing advanced ballistic plate.
Also we didnt force our way in....well we did really....but we
claimed that for their own safety we would have to enter the inner
bits of their 'temple'....conjuring visions of radioactive meltdown
and stuff like that. We also did not want to slaughter them all and
pick up the bits later. these people were the last survivors of a
culture that my CHARACTER really admired...sure they had regressed a
bit but being bombarded with Star-Class weapons does that to a
nation.
People on Mailing Lists are too quick to criticise and too slow to
listen. Its a failing i have found in Roleplayers across the world
and I would have thought that there would be more discussion than
"Oh you made a mistake...Nya Nya NYA"
If anyone has any foolproof adventures then i'd like to see them.
(Our GM confided that the rest of the adventure dealt with fighting
with the 'primitives'...but our comms was an expert in contacts and
a damn good roleplayer to boot.)
Any questions?
