Fast forward cyberpunk action game

OldSam · 09-15-2018, 07:57 PM

I'm planning a shadowrun style cyberpunk action game in the next months, currently thinking about the concept...

The plan is to focus on the punk in cyberpunk, so really a fast forward action (cinematic) approach with not much tactical planning, rather more "bang!, like an action movie.

I definitely will get into the Action: 2 (Exploits) material again.

One thing I'm currently wondering about is how to make melee more effective in a cyberpunk setting (e.g. fast street samurai with claws), where there are guns everywhere - having a lot of power and the range advantage.

Maybe less weapon damage by firearms? Better armor values...? Some meta rule like the etiquette definition that firearms won't shoot at unarmed opponents...? ;)

What do you say?
