Dresden Files – With the newest of 13 books coming out July 26th, Dresden Files is a modern day mix of magic and murder-mystery featuring Chicago’s only professional wizard, Harry Dresden... who is unfortunately unavailable to solve the current murder, leaving it up to you. Game setup features 13-day deadlines with each Day equaling a fortnight of game time.

Revelation Space – A hard sci-fi series that’s half Lovecraft-style horror, a major feature of Revelation Space is that there is no warp drive, so interstellar travel takes place on board ‘Lighthuggers’, gigantic ships that coast from system to system over years, mostly crewed by small groups of Ultras, groups generally considered for being vicious, half-cyborg, and often borderline psychotic who spend most of their time in hibernation sleep between stars. When a murder occurs during hibernation, the crew awakes to find the murder occurred years ago… now the Ultras and a few of their passengers find themselves trying to find the murderer before they go back into hibernation sleep. Their murder investigation could take decades as they wander from planet to planet.

Warhammer 40k – In the grim darkness of the future the galaxy is dominated by a repressive and xenocidal Empire of a million worlds… and they’re just about the nicest guys around. Join Imperial Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn in his quest to stamp out Daemons, Aliens, and Heretics on the Hive World of Thracian Primaris.

Alex Cross – A long running modern murder-mystery starting withAlong Came the Spider, Detective Alex Cross is regularly pitted against the most deranged serial killers, often acting in groups.

Blade Runner – This Cult Classic takes place in the distant future and dystopian future, 2019 AD, in the City of Los Angeles which has become swamped in smog and crime, a massive slum where corporations have all the power Modern Times. A recent series of murders points to androids, and you’ve been gathered together to help root them out before they kill again.

The Untouchables – A game which actually features genuine mafia, this game is designed for a very classic Mafiascum setup.

Oh good. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 12:08:29 AM 968 Views
Hmm. Meant to reply to the original post. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 12:09:27 AM 546 Views
I'm not objecting, just wondering what the hey you're talking about beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 03:17:48 AM 1126 Views
I think Isaac was suspiciously unwilling to lynch Stephen. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 04:53:43 AM 1111 Views
Well, the good news is that we seem to be narrowing it down quickly beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 05:03:32 AM 998 Views
I pretty much agree. Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 06:11:07 AM 1006 Views
I was surprised. ranagrande - 13/06/2011 09:59:14 PM 1052 Views
Hah. beetnemesis - 13/06/2011 10:40:26 PM 858 Views
Isn't that always the case? *NM* Darth_Katie - 13/06/2011 11:10:43 PM 559 Views
Plausible. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2011 06:15:47 AM 1030 Views
How did I through ? under the bus? (and using punctuation after the word "bus" doesn't count) Gher - 11/06/2011 04:19:43 AM 1147 Views
Maybe not "threw," but it could have been a nudge beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 04:46:30 AM 1110 Views
Which would have been near suicide for a scummer to do. Hobo - 11/06/2011 07:15:24 AM 951 Views
I think that's what he's suggesting Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 02:55:18 PM 945 Views
That's exactly what I was suggesting. But again, it seems a bit unlikely beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 03:28:56 PM 994 Views
It's possible Gher - 11/06/2011 06:44:48 PM 1120 Views
Re: HA! Hobo - 11/06/2011 07:20:05 AM 1136 Views
Oh, I know a few other people suspected him. beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 03:31:17 PM 948 Views
Isaac and Ranagrande both stood out after Yesterday's lynch Gher - 11/06/2011 04:04:51 AM 996 Views
I'm not a doublevoter, to my knowledge. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 04:32:43 AM 890 Views
Which you obviously do recall since that's what you linked to 8-. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 04:33:37 AM 665 Views
Excellent way to keep things murky. Publicly ask the Mod why the vote count is off... Gher - 11/06/2011 06:31:14 PM 1070 Views
Are you suggesting that I'm a scum doublevoter? Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 07:57:35 PM 1017 Views
No, I'm not. Gher - 13/06/2011 06:20:48 PM 1025 Views
Yeah, I noticed that too. Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 06:14:14 AM 923 Views
It's me. Hobo - 11/06/2011 07:12:05 AM 998 Views
Except that you didn't have a vote on Darth_Katie. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 05:40:55 PM 936 Views
Mod wouldn't want to admit he made a mistake? Hobo - 11/06/2011 10:35:07 PM 1119 Views
EBWOP Hobo - 11/06/2011 10:39:09 PM 1027 Views
There's nothing to my knowledge. *NM* Darth_Katie - 12/06/2011 09:31:32 AM 640 Views
I probably made a mistake. Kronin al'Sulc - 12/06/2011 06:34:29 PM 1017 Views
Alright. Gher - 13/06/2011 06:22:52 PM 1110 Views
Yeah, I got RB'd last Night Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 06:30:22 AM 1062 Views
So, time to check in again Stephen - 12/06/2011 05:58:41 PM 1052 Views
Do you have any comments on our current thoughts? Darth_Katie - 14/06/2011 12:11:10 PM 1008 Views
Yeah Stephen - 14/06/2011 01:53:53 PM 1044 Views
Bulletproof's another scum favourite claim. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2011 06:44:29 PM 1012 Views
Bulletproof, really? Gher - 14/06/2011 08:46:00 PM 1199 Views
Myrole message explicitly states that I can't be NK'ed *NM* Stephen - 14/06/2011 09:32:19 PM 674 Views
Hmm. Darth_Katie - 14/06/2011 09:43:40 PM 1029 Views
Pretty much the whole scarcity of his role Stephen - 14/06/2011 10:24:44 PM 1043 Views
Semi-BP thing? One-shot BP is not that unusual. *NM* Gher - 14/06/2011 11:12:57 PM 663 Views
Errr... you can talk you way out of a NK? That seems odd beetnemesis - 15/06/2011 01:11:03 AM 930 Views
Yes, I can. Stephen - 15/06/2011 01:44:06 PM 983 Views
If I may quote Shakespeare: beetnemesis - 16/06/2011 03:23:22 PM 1060 Views
It's not an OMGUS when you're obviously scum Stephen - 16/06/2011 05:01:24 PM 999 Views
So... Stephen, Gher, Hobo or ranagrande? beetnemesis - 12/06/2011 08:01:21 PM 977 Views
Re: So... Stephen, Gher, Hobo or beetnemesis? ranagrande - 13/06/2011 09:49:06 PM 1109 Views
That does sound like a pretty cool scum plan beetnemesis - 13/06/2011 10:47:17 PM 949 Views
RBIRL Hobo - 15/06/2011 08:37:41 PM 1003 Views

As long as you don't start sending out death threats in the middle of the night. *NM* Darth_Katie - 22/06/2011 05:17:53 AM 530 Views
No one else has voted for Dresden Files; I'm almost beyond threats! beetnemesis - 22/06/2011 05:44:42 AM 929 Views
I'm actually not familiar with any of Isaac's suggestions, embarassingly . Fanatic-Templar - 22/06/2011 06:12:22 AM 937 Views
Me either Fox and Ravens - 22/06/2011 01:14:20 PM 945 Views

My girlfriend will inevitably make me watch Dresden Files in the near future, Fanatic-Templar - 23/06/2011 04:38:08 AM 875 Views
I feel like a Star Wars fanatic hearing that someone's first experience will be with Episode 1. beetnemesis - 23/06/2011 06:07:23 AM 927 Views
Don't even joke about that kind of thing *NM* Scott Blademaster - 23/06/2011 06:36:15 AM 661 Views
It is definitely a 'watch it before you read it' series Isaac - 23/06/2011 07:21:41 AM 960 Views
Probably the same way I feel about the LotR movies. Fanatic-Templar - 23/06/2011 11:45:46 PM 952 Views
Re: That's probably the best way Stephen - 23/06/2011 12:00:31 PM 912 Views
