If is valid is okay for me just take easy, I don´t know much about it
you know
the atribute bonus or natural atacks (animal hybrid), and for the
beggining one
fighter for player is enough, or can be have a cross among the fighters
of same
person and you know...
Just send me him or she with his/her origin coutry you know Japan,
U.S.A. And of
course a original quote and ten moves tatic (Send this one for my
e-mail, no to
the list). And I will begin this when I have more people in the game.
Thanks.

Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of Jeet Kune Dog

The Amazing Sorochinski

Glad to announce that if you go to yahoo! clubs, rpg, live action (the
catagory that lists all the white wolf games) you will find Street Fighter:
The Dogs of War as a "favorite" club. We've only got seven members so far,
but hey! We are on the list, and that's groovy

Lassie's stage can have little Timmy stuck down the well! I could see a
black Beauty team up against Flipper and Benji. WOW! WHAT A FIGHT!!! WOOF
KEN! SHO BARK KEN!
Lassie has to find someone to save Timmy, which takes him all the way to
Migranka where he faces off with Bison! EXCELLENT!
Then, at Lassie's darkest hour, Ryu show's up riding Black Beauty (who we
thought was dead when Benji laid the smackdown on him)
Ryu fights Bison, while Black Beauty and Lassie Tag team Bison's pet Killer
Whale Orca! Evil gets trounced, this time.
Timmy is saved, Ryu wanders on with Black beauty as his student And Lassie
settles down and marries Babe the talking pig.
But, in the shadows, Jaws and Rin Tin Tin secretly plot to destroy Timmy for
shooting their general Old Yeller.
It would be a great ending, full of passion, action, suspense, horror and a
potential sequel.

Hmmm... And animals always sell. But we need star power.. Do you think
Leonardo DiCaprio is available to play Timmy? Maybe Jackie Chan for Ryu?
And how about Van Damme for Guile (er...no scratch that...Really really bad
idea...Nobody would be as stupid as to cast HIM as Guile)

The answer is YES, I am now accepting new applications for the online SF
campaign. Although, depending on how many people sign up, I may have to run
more than one campaign at a time. Nevertheless, I am holding an
informational meeting online at the chat page on Friday the 8th at midnight
central time. Be there if you can.

And my apologies, the address is

http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/storyboysgamezone

NOTE TO ALL CURRENT NEW LEGENDS ONLINE PLAYERS:

Please attend tomorrow's meeting so I can determine the details of
Saturday's session. And, so that anyone with questions can ask some of you
"veterans".

Hope to see you all there,

Hrmm ok. I dont think dhalsim retired to be a family man.
Buddist monks are allowed to marry last I checked....
just a note.

Ok Just a point to everyone out there.
Kabaddi in actual life is not a fighting system.
I have talked to many indian friends in refference to kabbadi.

Kabbadi is a game...with no relation to what dhalsim does.
What dhalsim does is yoga with fighting aspect.

Sorry to everyone. but my time lately has been real short so my messages
wont be long. more quick and to the point.

Actully alot of the SF guys are pretty evil in the first version of there
games.
Dhalsim wasnt to friendly when they first showed him.
If he beat you he would say something along the lines of "YOu have lost, Now
I will destroy you!".
Ibuki isnt to nice in SF3 either. If she beats you she says "You have seen
the ninja secrets now I must kill you."

Actually he prety much is perfeect.
Suposedly he is the closest thing to a perfect human speciman.
I have the old bat man role playing game.
according to the game it would be easier to take out batman Physically
then mentally or spiritually. And according to the comic he knows, Savate,
Jiujitsu
and a ton of other arts. Along with getting one of the highest scores
required to join the FBI(with the exception of fire arms) a piloting
liscence by the time he was 19-20. Went to scotland yard.
The only place he lacks is in house work. couldnt make his own breakfeast or
wash his clothes worth a damn.
He has supposedly over exceeded his strength on times
His mind could have been a master in physics as he has disarmed nuclear
bombs as well once.
While he has been beaten quite a bit, he has done extremelly well against
superhuman odds such as the croc and poison ivy.

20/70/81 which puts me at 18 now...
Ahh well. I musn't be as weel cultured a RP'er then.. Althoguth i have been
with SF:tSTG since day one.

As far as the 7 people who voted in teh poll (thanx) here are the results
after roughly a week.

The poll in now free for anyone who wants to use it.....if not I shall use
it as I WISH!!! AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHA!!!
<Temporary influx o' psycho power>

"Here are the results of the vote:

1. I think that both moves have their place in the game 1
2. Cartwheel Kick? Is that in any of the video games? 2
3. Change the Stats on Cart Kick!!!! 2
4. Speed of the Mongoose to Cartwheel Kick (dizzy) = OH NO!!! 2

".


Andy

Hey.. you talked to lance!
Yah I talked to him as well once in regards to certain questions about
street fighter as well. But I think I swamped him a bit.
Im starting to think he's the only guy a capcom who knows anything about SF.

Ah, I think Ibukis just posing, it's hard to compete with those rough guys
out there. My girlfriend always wanted to kill me, but she's not evil. You
know ...Ibuki is one of those anime girls who is constantly at war with
herself, trying to live up to her Ninja heritage while still trying to be
normal, And we've all been there ...right? I don't think she'd kill any one
without a lot of remorse. So cut the poor girl some slack. Ward, It never
pays to be too hard on the beaver.

Dhalsim was pretty rambunctious when he was young, that little rascal. You
know it could have been a translation error. It might have originally been
something like; "You have lost, now I will have Japuti!". That wacky
Dhalsim, he just loves to eat.

Don't forget that Batman has also beaten the snot out of superman in
certain stories.

i was wondering about how high do most of the stat get in your games
i.e. is there an upper limit not human mind you but i mean what player
charcters can go to and if there is what is it?

This reminds me, how do you guys handle an individual's use of multiple
martial arts? After all, it is possible both in the video game (gen), and in
real life, so how do you handle it?
Incorporating some rules from Wod version of storyteller would handle it,
but I am curious how people would handle it in a purely SF fashion. A merit?
Sure, it is still an import, but merits and flaws are less of a hassle to
add.

I posted a link in the links section of the egroups to my web page and
I'd appreciate if anybody would go there give me back some comments and
advice and kep in mind i have had a whole lot of time to work on it but
I would appreciate feedback the link to it if it isn't working in the
links room is http://www.geocities.com/clk_whrr_chad/StreetFighter.html
Thanks.
