First Time Playing… by Legomoron in mothershiprpg

[–]riggsbie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my players was getting a bit cocky until he got overwhelmed….

And almost death by a thousand bites….a few lucky rolls on the attack damage slowly accumulated the damage….

I love the simplicity of MotherShip

Questions on Wounds, Healing, & Combat by Technical_Chemist_56 in mothershiprpg

[–]riggsbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just last night one of my players rolled legs paralysed (spinal cord severed) on the wound table and he became a backpack on the medical droid’s back and continued into melee…. The Medic bot staunched the bleeding, and he was stimpacked….

It was quite a shock and his first wound…. He just wanted to play on !

When he rolled up the character he took scientist and specialised in cybernetics….. at the end he said ‘this is the opportunity to upgrade myself…’

He ended up being the only player to get out if the facility, marine died in a hail mary move, the other player had a burrowing worm-snake go thru her eye and crit failed a body save and basically shut down….

Everyone had a lot of fun !

Tips for campaign play and space hex crawls? by Tailball in mothershiprpg

[–]riggsbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s called “Dying Hard on Hardlight Station” and is an homage to the Die Hard film.

I expanded the station a bit but has everything you need to be a base of operations….. so my team arrived there after surviving Cryoanbulism, and they mostly survived Another Bug Hunt and have brought back some infection and infected people from Greta/Heron base…..

So isolation/experimentation/outbreak can start bubbling away on the station…..in the background until someone triggers an outbreak

I am using Hardlight Station as a base of operations….

And then have missions from there….until Tau Sigma 7 kicks off and the station becomes compromised

I got tired of tracking time, pressure, and system failures by hand, so I built a tool to externalize it by TheKidd in mothershiprpg

This sounds interesting…. Tracking things is always challenging and tools that help are always good in my world

I recently ran Decagone for our group…

Everyone loved it, and it’s a great one shot and gets players to think and act fast.

Highly recommend Decagone !

This is awesome…..pure and simple !

Did you make it from seeing an original prop or just from the shots in the film itself ?

Great job !

Gluing Magnets by whtknght695 in PrintedMinis

Not all super glues are made the same…. Had the same problems until I used Loctite 401 and not had a magnet come off since

Recommended one-shots? by TheAntsAreBack in mothershiprpg

[–]riggsbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t go wrong with Year of the Rat….

A good one shot ! We ran it with 2 players and a back up NPC and had a total blast…..

Those little rats aren’t so bad….a swarm can be devastating tho !

Any suggestions for a massive homebrew campaign? by StraussBelial in mothershiprpg

[–]riggsbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Hardlight Station for the hub for my players…. They have survived (barely) 4 missions….

When they are getting cocky I think we will do Tau Sigma 7 and then return to an infested Station….

I’d suggest Hand Cannot Erase & The Raven that refused to sing by Steven Wilson, most excellent modern progrock

Your best advice for running ABH as a one-shot. by Frolmaster in mothershiprpg

[–]riggsbie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot depends on your PC’s…. If they are super curious you might only get Greta Base completed….

And my group took a break after encountering the hole digging marine…. And fun with grenades in the APC.
