here's something these bad guy players can uncover something
diabolical that shadoloo is trying to do, something they can't handle
themselves, and they have to team up with some player street fighters
or world warriors for that matter to stop it..but they really aren't
liked or believed..this can ba an adventure onto itself
your players like to play the gray side huh.."stone cold steve austin"
what you think??

Every so often someone says something that inevitably starts a flame war.
It's my turn.
Generally speaking, these games really annoy me, and represent what's wrong
with gaming these days. Someone devises a RPG, by definition a game of
infinite possibility, and the best thing the players can do is play thugs?
I know this is a little harsh, but I find an entire game consisting of bad
guys just WRONG, probably because the bad guys always win in that scenario.
Since you say your troupe has SOME code of honor, it's quite possible your
game is an exception to this. After all, "The Sopranos" does quite well for
itself. But I think the gaming community went downhill with the release of
"The Player's Guide to the Sabbat."

Say Steve..... That PC, Jelly Roll.
He wasn't by any chance the character that was
known for creating sonic booms by slapping his belly with his fists was
he?
I thought I remeber a story along those lines
sometime back...
The other, and this guy is probably the
funniest Street Fighter character I've ever seen, was Jelly Roll.
Jelly Roll was a fat geek with no physicals to speak of except a five
Stamina for reasons I still don't understand. He worked at a comic
book store and studied Silat at the gym across the street. The only reason
I recall this player choosing Silat was due to the fact that you can create
a starting character who has both Zen No Mind and Sonic Boom. So that was
Jelly Roll. He was great because people always assumed he was Sumo
because of his size, and since he couldn't move very far and didn't have
any good attacks but the Sonic Boom, he became the team's
artillery piece. Our entire strategy revolved around getting people
lined up with Jelly Roll so he could Sonic Boom them. Ryoko fought
him once, and I remember her blindly charging across the ring only to be
slapped silly by a Sonic Boom at the end of the round. (Remember, she
had a two Stamina.) She lost the fight, but the sight of her trying to
Suplex that fatso is still one of the funniest things I've ever come across
in Street
Fighter.

I sort of know people who have rom's / CDRs of this game for the

About them following having some honor in order to not be evil:
Even if they abide by a "code", that doesn't make the villains good or
non-evil. You can abide by a code and still be evil.

No one said it's the best thing, but it's an idea that may be new to the
group. Are people supposed to only do whatever the best thing is and not
a variety of things?

Sounds like you just have bad experience with it. I don't see why a group
of villains would win or lose anymore than if the group was playing
goodguys.
I myself don't enjoy games where you plays villains as much, generally
because it means there is a higher degree of backstabbing fellow players
which I don't enjoy.

Good idea with a couple modifications, We could make

streetfighter. Where people could challange other

in the weakent when everyone sends in their stratagies
and than at the and of each weak we post the results

in a sense. however, the only real difference is that the north calls it Wu
Shu while the south calls it Kung Fu. And since all our favorite film stars

Subject: Re: karan says
yea, that's him. I've mentioned him to the
list several times, as the character amused me THAT much.
The other, and this guy is probably the
funniest Street Fighter character I've ever seen, was Jelly Roll.
Jelly Roll was a fat geek with no physicals to speak of except a five
Stamina for reasons I still don't understand. He worked at a comic
book store and studied Silat at the gym across the street. The only
reason I recall this player choosing Silat was due to the fact that you
can create a starting character who has both Zen No Mind and Sonic
Boom. So that was Jelly Roll. He was great because people always
assumed he was Sumo because of his size, and since he couldn't move very
far and didn't have any good attacks but the Sonic Boom, he became the
team's artillery piece. Our entire strategy revolved around getting
people lined up with Jelly Roll so he could Sonic Boom them. Ryoko
fought him once, and I remember her blindly charging across the ring only
to be slapped silly by a Sonic Boom at the end of the round.
(Remember, she had a two Stamina.) She lost the fight, but the sight of
her trying to Suplex that fatso is still one of the funniest things I've
ever come across in Street Fighter.

without getting to deep into the game, The Sabbat is a group of "evil" (by
most accounts) vampires. unlike their counterparts, the Camarilla, the
Sabbat think that they should not hide their presence from humans, and think
they should rule... everyone. "Player's Guide to the Sabbat" is the book all
about them, so players can RP the cold, (almost) heartless killers of the
Sabbat.
Luck? Its just a roll of the dice...

yea, the Thrill Kill web site should still be up, but I remember the
character off the top of my head. Most of them, anyway.
The Imp: midget with stilts *nailed* to his legs.
Dr. Faustus: insane plastic surgeon who died of infection after grafting a
bear trap onto his lower jaw.
Violet: circus contortionist
Oddball: psycho killer in a straitjacket. former detective specializing in
serial killers
Cletus: backwoods cannibal who used a severed leg as a club
some big brute with arms the size of telephone poles and a brain the size of
a walnut
some chick who killed herself after her husband slept around. wore a lot of
fetish outfits and spanked/cattle-prodded her victims.
a Cenobite clone who was a judge who'd pardon sickos so he could kidnap them
and torture them to death later.

Good idea with a couple modifications, We could make
an IC List kinda like Hunter-net except for
streetfighter. Where people could challange other

characters Someone could moderate the maches Ages

in the weakent when everyone sends in their stratagies

The main difference between your campaign and mine is that Shadowloo owns
America while most of the rest of the world is rallying forces to overwhelm
him. Many World Warriors now work for Shadowloo but I didn't want any of
them to be dead, (at least before the storyline starts) because I needed to
use almost all of them. I even included characters from EX, and other
titles, like Resident Evil, Final Fight, and King of Fighters. In fact, the
only "free" place in America is the area surrounding Metro City (from Final
Fight) commanded by Mike Maggar. It's fun, but I'm getting a little tired
of it and I want to start over. But not until the final showdown is
complete (or my players would kill me). They're main problem is getting out
of America, which is pretty hard if Shadowloo controls all exits (almost)
from the country.

Okay I am about to do something uncharacteristic here.....
HOLY FREAKING CRAP THAT IS THE COOLEST IDEA!!!!!
The idea of a "SFNEt" website is great! Street Fighters are already a very
distinct subculture and putting up a website reflecting that culture would
rock. Not only would the whole tournament deal be hosted there, but we could
make up the whole site to appear as a sort of mock "touch base" for the
"fighters" to contact each other, post journals (fanfiction) about their
travels and even the odd article or two.
Of course my interest is slightly selfish; with my schedule I wouldn't be
able to participate in actual games but I'd still like to be involved
somehow. What d'you guys think?

Exactly my thought! It'd give us a chance to stretch out creative muscles in
something SF-related that wasn't purely game. We could have "interviews"
with the World Warriors, and post fight "schedules" and "current events".
Only challenge is that we'd most likley need a unified world for everything

I thought maybe we should try using MSN chat for SF chat. It's more

it. It's at chat.msn.com under the Unlisted Category, and it's Called the

I had an NPC like that in my game. Her name was Qaali. She controlled
elemental monsters (like from Final Fantasy), I actually still have stats
and character cutouts for them. The last wave were the dragons. They were
Salamander (fire), Leviathan (water), Typhoon (air), Terrato (earth), and
Bahamut (light). Each dragon took up four hexes and could fly, they also
had really powerful elemental moves (i made them up), and when you killed
one, it would cause the corresponding section of the floor to collapse (my
players didn't know until a few had fallen in ;^). And afterwards, one of
my more hotheaded players tried to attack her after she warned him not to.
Her jab punch had a speed damage and move rating of over 30 heeheehee! I
can be mean sometimes!!

Well to myunderstanding Northern styles or chang chuan,focus on more
acrobatic and aerial techniques, while maintaining a circular range of
motion and movement. Conversely Southern styles, or nan chuan, focusses more
on a lower center of gravity and more linear movement. Wushu is inherently
Northern, but not all Northern Styles are considered wushu. Another term
that was created during the last century was kuoshu, which is a more
specific term for Kung Fu meaning "national art"
