Interest in End of the World: Zombie Apocolypse
Just toying with this idea at the moment and trying to get an idea how to run a game in a PbP setting, but have any of you ever seen the End of the World game series by Fantasy Flight Games? I think it might be fun to run a game on here and was wondering what kind of interest there might be. Of course the game series is played with a character based on the player's real life persona. Using what skills and abilities the actual player possesses. How that translates into a play by post game where none of us really know each other in real life might be challenging, but I am envisioning a group of people thrown together by chance. There could be a Zombie outbreak on a cruise liner for instance. Anyway, Thought it might be something different to try.

I saw the Alien Invasion book in this series just dropped. I believe Wulf was talking about this at one point.

I think it would be interesting and would be willing to give it a try.

Is there a way to set up the dice roller for this with a pool of negative/positive dice where like numbers cancel each other out?

I don't think so. Someone coded that dice roller and we installed it here. We didn't develop it. You'd need to use an off-site dice roller. For instance, for Star Wars, I actually use the Google hangouts dice roller.

You could ask Shuijo, he added the The One Ring Dice to the dice roller for me, but it may be easier to use another one already developed, but maybe Shuijo would want to do it still.

Well, let me work on a scenario that would play well on the forum and if we get enough interest, I think it would be fun to run. Might need some help setting it up as I have never tried to run a game this way.

I think everyone should have to play their RL self in the Zombie Apocalypse.
