Something is coming - R&D's 'MakeUSmaller' ray has been a huge success ...

Is this the one that's going to be managed by Ash Barker?

that's another project ;-)

Well, that just means two things to get hyped over!

(feel free to get his input on Paranoia too tho, it's right up his alley)

It's out on pre-order tomorrow so predates Ash joining the other project but it's definitely the sort of thing he'll like I think

So is this the same Paranoia as the OG game of yore?

If so, I'm intrigued.. always loved the lore on that one

It is indeed - the original high programmers themselves have been approving the content.

It's a solo/coop or vs miniatures game

Welcome to the miniatures version of the iconic, dark-humour Paranoia RPG, adapted by the same team as Five Parsecs from Home and Five Leagues from the Borderlands.

Want a game where teammates have each other’s backs and work together to accomplish a noble goal? Well, this ain’t it.

Join a so-called ‘team’ of Troubleshooters (find the trouble, get shot) and complete missions that keep Alpha Complex the safe, efficient Utopia its citizens trust. None of them are members of secret societies, and absolutely none of them have mutant powers. They’re certainly not going to report each other as Traitors or shoot each other in the back with a laser pistol. Hey, get them before they get you!

And if you die, don’t worry, you have five identical clones to take your place and mop up what’s left of you.

Trust The Computer. It never makes mjstakes.

- Procedural solo, co-op and group play rules and gamemastered options throughout.
- Fast-moving system, emphasising fun over complexity
- 50 Mutant Powers that you definitely don’t have
- 20 pieces of starting equipment.
- Mission generator, plus 20 Scenarios with 7 Objective types.
- Secret Society and Security Clearance rules
- Foes including IntSec Troopers, Vulture Squadron Warriors, Bots, Mutant Creatures, Monsters, and Aliens, and, of course, your fellow clones
- Rules for random hazards, cameras, vending machines, even doors
- Optional rules for Mandatory Bonus Duties, Service Groups, and more
- 10 status effects – you too can be Confused, Stunned, Bleeding, Stressed, Infected, and more. Often at the same time!

Oh COOL :-D

Dammit. Costing me $.
I try not to spend $ on toys for myself Nov-Dec. But no one else is likely to get me this for Christmas no matter the hints I drop, so....

Was not on my bingo card, but may well be in my Adepticon haul if it's there...

That it's built on the 5X system is a big plus to me. Me and a buddy have been doing a co-op Five Leagues campaign recently, and that's been a blast.
