It was a contractors dream. I worked for the English roads and traffic authority. My job was to confirm the Y2K compliance of all nonstandard office equipment. What’s nonstandard office equipment you ask. Why it’s microwaves and coffee machines. Yes I was paid by the government to phone up Braun and ask if their mark what ever coffee machine that was in the whatchamacall it office was y2k compliant. After they stopped laughing I’d ask if they could send me that in an email or letter. 😂
When you pull your encounter card it will tell you how many are present. It will say something like PC X 2. You can always adjust the number if it just does not seem correct. Some of the encounter cards just seemed too much for me to run solo.
Good tips. I think this game would be fun to play. I've watched several game-play videos. I didn't know they had specific solo rules in the rule book. Good to know. Thanks for your effort! And good point about the NPC stats and the rule book.
It was easier for me to change the setting to something I was more familiar with and why not my home state. Think of it as a Red Dawn setting in you local area. It was a great movie and makes for a fun game.
I always wanted that as a teenager. When I first got the internet, it was one of the first things I ordered online since I'd never seen it on a shelf. Looking at it now makes me so nostalgic for that brief but crazy Y2K insanity period, around the same time I first got on the net!
That is a great request and I will have to look into the best way to share those documents publicly. Some of it was taken right from the book and that might be a legal issue with copy write laws. If you are just interested in the tracking sheet that is something I created and can share. Until I can figure out the best way to share it feel free to drop me an email and I can send it to you, solitaryrpg@gmail.com.
Great review and great tips. This game looks amazing. I hear theres a Zombie add on from Drive Thru RPG which sounds really cool. Would it be easy to add your own Guns, Weapons, equipment etc?
There are already a lot of weapons to choose from and it would be easy to add your own. Just look at the stats for the current weapons for one that is similar and make some slight modifications. I just received Urban Operations and need to give this game another run. Thanks for watching the video.
I will have to look into getting that. T2K was one of my first videos on this channel. Fun game system and it has solo rules included but PPM will be a good addition to the game.
This is great. Awesome ideas and formats look simple and easy to use. If your offer on resources still stands I'll shoot you an email. Appreciate the reminders and consolidation. I am a big fan of one-sheet references or getting as much as I can in one place. Also like your criticisms too. Solid points in regards to having to reference Stat charts in different places in order to flesh out encounters. I don't have an issue with it in the book but wish they made pretty much exactly what you made haha.
Thank You for the positive feedback. Yes it is a great game and I feel some simple resources make it better for solo games. I will be more than happy to share my resources just send me an email.
