Howdy everyone! I'm Warren, or Warr, as many of you know me by. I'm an amateur writer, an avid role player of both published and home brew systems, and I'm an avid Game master in most of those worlds, as well as a person who comes up with a lot of ideas, quickly, and whom can come up with things easily when given the chance. I'm from Texas, and was always a fan of one of Cowboy Bebop's sister serieses (Outlaw Star) though I never actually got to catch Cowboy Bebop. The system from what I can see though is generally awesome for any space western setting, and being a fan of many space westerns, I figured I'd post an introduction and point out to anyone who doesn't know already that I'll be here, trying to help out.

Hi Warr – Welcome Aboard

And I’m putting you on the Swag List for being one of the first to actually introduce yourself officially

We’re glad to have you with us – and encourage everyone who logs on to be creative and let us know what they think. You never know, but what you add or suggest may very well be just what another GM or Player is looking for in his own game.

And I agree with you on the versatility of the BHB system for Space-Western. Outlaw Star, Tri Gun, or others could be done. I even have a rough draft of some Mecha Rules in the works as a supplement

Welcome Warr,

Glad you came out... We are greatly appreciative of any and all help you want to give. The biggest is telling people about us and spreading the word of how cool the system is.

Hey Warr, would you be interested in starting up some Outlaw Star character Write-ups? It’s something I intend to do, but am lacking for time.

I might, yeah. I've got to go reread the other system to get it down totally, but I'd love to write them up in the system, yeah, alongside the bounty heads I already plan to write for the advertisements I said I'd write.

As for ‘grappling ships’, I have some rough draft rules for Mecha-Style vehicles that could work (basically a mix of vehicle combat with unarmed).

Warr · « **Reply #6 on:** October 28, 2008, 11:46:41 pm »

Might work for it, yeah. If you'd like an opinion on it, I'd be happy to help.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #7 on:** October 29, 2008, 10:16:26 am »

Yeah, I wouldn’t mind getting opinions on it. I’ll try to post a rundown of it in the Solar Frontier forum in the next week or so for comment/discussion – would be sooner, but I got a lot cooking at the moment

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #14 on:** February 27, 2009, 09:50:20 pm »

Quick Warr - now's your chance to get in the last word

BZ

Warr · « **Reply #15 on:** February 28, 2009, 01:40:54 am »

I always have a chance to have a last word.

It's called a 'smartass' edge. ^_^

Buuut not much, chilling and dealing with stuff, pondering over a few campaign ideas I have, and pondering -possibly- of running them via BhB.

(I found the rough draft copy you guys sent me, hehe. Which will be replaced as soon as (God willing) I find a job and get my first paycheck.)

LadyZerka · « **Reply #16 on:** February 28, 2009, 07:00:41 pm »

What are your campaign ideas? Who has the last word now?

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #17 on:** February 28, 2009, 07:26:38 pm »

Oh boy, this could go on for a while...

But really, what type/sort of campaigns are you giving thought to?

BZ

Warr · « **Reply #18 on:** March 01, 2009, 03:07:58 pm »

I think the system itself could go well for an earth based setting, perhaps without an actual need for modifications for a -huge- amount of things with the system, or even many.

My idea(s) are 1, a setting where several 'Supracountries' (See, Regional Unions IE; EU, AU, USAN), become more and more like supernations, and come closer and closer to a head, likely over a new technology created.

My other idea is actually a space based one, which uses the 'Earth was hit by something extraterrestrial', but those things were several starships, which had been battling and had an accident, before crashing in several parts of the earth, leading to tensions & border disputes between nations as a 'new space race' begins, and ends. Instead of being 'several centuries after colonization', it would be during the opening stages of colonization of both Sol planets, and similar starsystems within range of the newly discovered, reverse engineered, and currently being feverishly studied, technologies.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #19 on:** March 01, 2009, 03:37:13 pm »

Interesting ideas Warr.

I have played in a few games (but never been creative enough to design them) where the political intrigue between the powers was quite entertaining – kudos to the GMs who can pull it off.

The closest I may have come myself was an X-Com UFO Defense game I ran using MnM, which featured a multinational survival enclave. The characters were from different countries, but working together to fend off the alien invaders.

Cool idea. You should persue it.

Warr · « **Reply #21 on:** March 03, 2009, 05:02:22 pm »

Mhm, fleshed it out a bit. ^_^

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #22 on:** March 03, 2009, 08:28:56 pm »

I'll say

I got your PM and will check it out tomorrow

BZ

Warr · « **Reply #23 on:** March 03, 2009, 08:55:28 pm »

What can I say? I'm a quick writer and very capable of fleshing out my ideas.

Welcome!

Warr · « **Reply #25 on:** March 07, 2009, 02:07:14 pm »

Thanks, UDA.

Warr · « **Reply #26 on:** October 11, 2010, 08:24:55 pm »

So I've poofed for quite a while, but I'm back!

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #27 on:** October 12, 2010, 11:49:40 am »

Hi Warr - glad to see you around again

Have you had a chance to run some of your own BHB ideas yet? What did you think of how we did Blast Off ?

(For those who didn't know, Warr contributed some ides that we used in the Blast Off book)

Welcome back!

BZ

Warr · « **Reply #28 on:** October 12, 2010, 01:24:34 pm »

I've honestly not had a chance to purchase either book, so no [and have only now finally got to get ahold of a face to face gaming group!] but; I'm definitely planning on it, everything I know and have known of the system- It was great and great for cinematic gaming in the anime style, ala Cowboy Bebop and other 'grit space adventures' RPGs.

I've had a few ideas for campaigns, and when I've gotten ahold of Blast Off and BHB, I'll be getting back to you. [Also: 25$ for 4 sourcebooks in that pack on RPG now? Woah that's a good deal, and depending on my check come friday, I may be going after trying to get that soon. =D]

Also grubbing my hands together with the ideas for the implications in a supers game.
