After watching John Wick 2 this Saturday, I started mashing this thing out. It’s like 2/3 BitD, 1/3 Star Force. It’s about a crew of hit men on a quest to take out an employer who betrayed them. So, a revenge fantasy for anyone who’s ever played Shadowrun.
It’s mostly a proof of concept. At this point I’m deciding whether I want to pare it down to the core ‘Kill Mister Johnson’ experience, or build it out to a properly detailed BitD hack.

This looks super cool! Personally I would lean towards making it a sleeker oneshot type game – the streamlined stats make character building quicker and make advancement a bit less nuanced, and I really like the idea of a self-contained revenge story. (That said, there’s also an argument to be made for a full-fledged hack; the entanglements are great, and a long term game exploring John Wick crime politics would be fantastic.)
Bloop.
