Woah, I just realized how easily S&V could work for a Borderlands hack.

Just replace “the Way” with “Eridium”. Also, assume when you fill your stress track you actually die, then you either have to take trauma or lose 4 coin (likely out of your stash) to come back at a nearby New-U Station. I’d also add “Local Catch-a-Ride” as a friend for all playbooks.

Factions would differ of course, replacing Hegemony with Coprorations consisting of the main manufacturers (Bandit, Dahl, Hyperion, Jakobs, Maliwan, Tediore, Torgue, Vladof, as well as more esoteric ones like Atlas, Pangolin‎, S&S Munitions, Scav, and Anshin), maybe with subsidiaries.

Then Underworld would be populated with local gangs and groups like Captain Scarlett, Captain Flynt’s ship, Bassanova’s Arena.

Then there may be local authorities, like the Crimson Raiders, Zafords, Hodunks, Terramorphous (& Spawn), train authorities, Wilhelm (and loaders), and maybe Angel and/or various Vaults and their guardians.

Different locations (Three Horns, Wildlife Exploitation Preserve, The Highlands, Lynchwood, etc.) could then have mini-stats and notables like S&V’s worlds.
