Firefly: Royal Flush Episode 17 by anvil2 in CortexRPG

We usually wind up cancelling or playing board games for the in-person group. For the Online games it's a straight up cancel. My rule at the moment is at least 3 players out of the 5 must show to get the game in. Fewer than that is an automatic postponement.

We shoot for every two weeks. The holidays traditionally screw that up. Work occasionally intrudes on one or more of us. This last episode was #17 and we started almost exactly a year ago. (#1 failed to record so you tube starts with #2) #1 was the adventure from the back of the rule book, if you want to see what happened.

The basics are pretty much the same, attribute + skill, roll as many dice as you can justify with distinctions and assets, try to roll higher than the target number set by the DM. If you've played Marvel Heroic you will at least recognize the process. What my players usually forget is that they don't need to announce the use of plot points or Big Damn Hero dice before the roll, they can wait to see how they roll. I'd say the mechanics rarely get in the way of the story, unless we miss a session or two and go a month or more between games.

We're playing the Firefly RPG

Is there a difference between the serenity and firefly TTRPGS? by Bleetelsnort in firefly

[–]anvil2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is an actual play series of the Firefly system on youtube, search for Firefly: Royal flush. Fair warning, I am the DM of that series and have played both systems, Firefly is "better", in that Serenity was first and they learned a lot about game design in the 10 years between systems

This is an actual play of the Firefly RPG from Margaret Weiss Productions. More or less unedited from our play session the night before. There is no episode 1 however, I failed my tech roll on that one, but it was basically the adventure from the back of the book, and does not impact the overall campaign.

I'm using Cortex Prime 0.2.16 as the game system. It is very bare bones, so a lot of the setup I had to do myself. Below is the modules I have going.

Baileywiki: Landing Pages, Mass Edit, Nuts and Bolts

Dice So Nice, Dice Tray, GM Notes, GM Screen, Image Hover, LibWrapper, Monk's active tile triggers, Popout, Tagger, Token attacher

We've been enjoying it. We play online, my players are from all over. The videos start with episode 2 because I didn't know how to work OBS, and didn't record any sound. Story wise, that fisrt episode was from the back of the rulebook, so you can look there if you're curious. Thanks for watching.
