"NPF IN THE XXV CENTURY!" or Let's Play Buck Rodgers!

[RobinStarwing]

Well, welcome to an all new screenshot LP project. This should be much more entertaining as I a choosing a horrid RPG to drag you all into! Anyways, let's get started. Title should tell you everything about this.



Doomsday Laser?



Dang it! Who activated it? Who? I demand names!



Target...gee I wonder what it could be? *insert sarcasm*



Yep...Earth.

What could be so obviously horrid? Glad you asked!!!



Buck Rodgers! In the 25th Century!

The Story So Far!!!

It's the freaking 25th Century, Earth has been devastated by repeated wars and Mankind is in space colonizing the Solar System. There are two main superpowers here. The first is the noble New Earth Organization or...



Which is based on Earth.

The other is the Russo-American Mercantile or...RAM. They are mased on Mars and use Mutant Soldiers to try and conquer the Solar System.

Now that that is out of the way...on with the show!

This is a party game where you get to make your own party so let's get down to business! First...making the character!



This is the game menu...boring.







Character Making Screens, much more exciting! Let's go over things here! There are only 3 races, 4 classes, and 13 skills. There are more in the PC version but... you don't get the goodies!

Races

Human - Enough said. You get all the classes and this is the most balanced.

Desert Runner - You run in Deserts and get both the Warrior and Rocket Jock as your classes.

Tinkers - Space Gnomes! or Space Hobbits! I don't know but your only class is Medic.

Classes

Warrior - Fighter/Tank of the group! Love your weapons!

Rocket Jock - Pilot/Engineer of the Rocketship you will probably get later.

Medic - Space Clerics with Pistols!

Rogue - Do I really need to explain this?

Skills

You get 8 points to put in each skill by the way.


Stealth - Enough said

Fast Talk - Persuade/Intimidate/Bluff/Lie all rolled into one!

Demolitions - Make stuff go boom. 'Nuf said.

Perception - D&D Search/Spot/Listen in Space.

Repair Rocket - Fix the ship!

First Aid - Fix the Crew!

Library Search - To quote a Gamefaqs on this

This skill is nearly useless. Whenever you find a
library, you can use this skill to find a few interesting tips there.
Each tip also gives you 100 experience points. There is one extra
mission for you to accomplish if you get this skill, but it has few
bonuses. Give this to only one character and don't waste too much
training on it.

Moving on...

Climbing - Climbing in two dimensions...wait what?

Programming - Hacking in space!

Zero Gravity Maneuvering - Affects how you move in space.

Leadership/Tactics: Warrior only. You lead and make people better at fighting.

Bypass Security: Rogue only. Get pass security systems!

Pilot Rocket/Juryrig - Rocket Jock only. Partly self-explanatory but the second part is you get to play Scotty!

Treat Wounds - Medic Only! This is a combat skill.



So now that we have all that out of the way. We only got six slots and well, I get the first slot seeing as this is my LP. Oh, and guess what? I get to be the dashing Rogue!

So you guys and gals get to pick what you want to be and your sprite (that's the middle screen). I will check in till we got five more people total or it's been till after Easter and we need to fill in on something.

1. RobinStarwing - Human Rogue
2. Bells - Human Medic
3. Ramona(Satan's Onion) - Human Rocket Jock
4. Daffy duck (Flarecobra) - Human Warrior
5. Aldurin - Human Rogue
