Hyper-Killer
Hyper-Killer ( HK ) is a role-playing game with simplicity in mind -- just as those who use it will have simplicity of mind. Oh yeah¸ free-form gaming is also important¸ and is especially good to annoy those damn rules lawyer types. Rules are kept to a minimum because it saves us a lot of writing¸ and¸ of course¸ it allows the game to flow a lot smoother. We expect a mature and experienced group of gamers to make rule decisions as a group with the Game Master (GM) having final say? but from experience¸ we all know the group will argue like hell and the GM will just do what he wants anyway. HK is also a system developed for fast character growth¸ without those tedious rules getting in the way. Just don't forget keep an eye out for that just-as-quick character death. Weapons and Gadgets of destruction ? well¸ at least violence -- are plentiful as the dice you can hurl around to kill your hated opponents. And¸ of course¸ no player characters out there will be using them to try and kill each other¸ will they? Oh¸ NO! The typical far-future world is dark and nasty. The citizens are too busy looking out for Number One (and I don?t mean the Commander¸ here) to give a rat's ass about you. Don't think that there are no good times¸ though. Make a solid run and live like a king for a week at the nearest Pleasure Planet -- or perhaps you prefer shopping at one of the many intergalactic "Guns 'O Rama" malls. Just don't ever forget that anyone and everyone are looking for the illusive galactic credits -- and you are a walking bag of body parts for the Body Bank that just might pay next month's rent. HK is primarily designed to be a dark urban science fiction game. It is simple to learn and quick to play. Great for a time filler after your regular game or as a replacment if some of your group doesn't show. A beer & preztel game that's more filling. HK is best played using a hex map¸ miniatures to keep track of distance¸ and some friends -- if you have any. Yeah¸ I know that sounds more like a war game but don't limit yourself to such narrow perceptions¸ or we'll send the Perception Police 'round. If you have a complex about a figurine representing you¸ just make sure you buy a real big one¸ with a real big gun and jump jets -- I?m sure that will make you feel better about yourself.
