Now imagine this all meshed up 😛

Hmmm Postapo Weird West sounds apealing.

  1. Technically, you didn’t have to list Star Wars.  I am pretty sure the number one rule in gaming is that a Star Wars hack must be attempted with every system.  

  2. There is already a Mistborn RPG, but it looks like Pulp Fantasy…?

    I am sure a Thief hack will turnup pretty fast by someone. So I am not entirely motivated to take a look at that myself.

    Another thought for hacks are:

    Legend of Korra

    Welcome to the Continental (John Wick, the film)

    From Dusk till Dawn

    Sin City

    Nochnoi Dozor (Nightwatch)

  3. I would indeed do a small Vehicle stats/charasheet and handle it more easily and compact like in Johns’s Bootlegger. With slots for add ons and traits for the vehicles.

    Gangs with modified Vehicles, Raiders, Clans of the wastelands, Merchenary companies, Traders Guild caravan, Techlords and Enforcement Squads.

    Raiders, Clan, Merchs Company, Guild, Techlords, Enforcers as Crewsheets

  4. I have a Super Sentai Hack in mind since the system is so heavily focused on teamwork, so the vehicle sheets will be great. I was originally writing one for DW but Blades seems like a better fit.

  5. AW, did started a Hack-Wave, DW did goes further on its own way and made the system popular among regular gamers, who werent into Postapo, now Blades, goes its completely own way, and its feels for me like a third wave of hackfriendly open design. The KS is speaking its own language here about what I feel is a great successor to some evolution of indie gaming.

  6. I wasn’t planing that gritty to be honest, more like Super Sentai and Kamen Rider (similar theme just less vulgar) though you totally could it would be more of a table choice. I am going a bit more toward the normal tropes, toy-like weapons, spandex, and all.

  7. It’s like a general “hack brainstroming” stream? Just dropping in my ideas:

    -) several crews

    There are some older rpgs like Gangsters! Gangbusters! which allow for a rather competitive approach for playing with bigger groups and I am participating in some VtM chat games. Allowing several gangs and hacking some mechanic into it to have some interaction might be interesting.

    One could maybe coordinate several games at a convention 

    -) modern crime

    I do like movies like The Godfather, Goodfellas, Casino or TV series like Boardwalk Empire, Sopranos, Breaking Bad (Better Call Saul), Weeds, Gomorrha. I think the baseline is there and it would be a very interesting hack.

    Ghosts could be removed or partly replaced by modern technology.

    -) vampires

    Small vampire covens fighting against each other and trying to get a hold in the normal world by the means of crime. As obviously humanity wouldn’t be happy to learn they are basically the source for a parasite. Maybe a bit a mashup of VtM and The Strain.

    (Well or Gokudo Wars, that upcoming movie from Takeshi Mike where getting to be a yakuza is handled like getting to be a vampire)

    All of that if there isn’t something official coming with the Stretch Goals ^^
