GIANT MUTHERFUCKIN' MONSTER CRAB TRUCKERS (GMFMCT) aka BIG MOTHERFUCKING CRAB TRUCKERS (BMFCT)
CURRENTLY ON HIATUS FOR A FEW WEEKS TO GET STUFF TOGETHER FOR MISSIONS.
DEMO CAMPAIGN HERE
FEEL FREE TO USE THIS THREAD AS A JUMPING POINT TO GET YOUR OWN IDEAS TOGETHER OR FOR YOUR OWN RP.
PLAYING CRAB TRUCKERS IS FUN, ISN'T IT? GOOD. I'M GLAD! THERE IS ONE CONDITION:

RESPECT AND CREDIT THE CREATOR AND DON'T ROB SHIT.
CREDITS ARE FOUND IN THE 1-PAGE RULES AND EVERYTHING ELSE MOSTLY DEVELOPED AND WRITTEN BY FUCKIN ME, OR MY RP GROUPS. GOT IT? GOOD. HAVE FUN!

COPYLEFT MOTHERFUCKERS.
ALL RIGHTS RESERVED AND BELONG TO THE ORIGINAL CREATOR. THIS IS NOT FOR PROFIT AND SHOULD NOT BE SOLD IN ANY WAY.

note: I have not written everything in "crab motherfucking trucker" style, but I will RP with that voice, and so should you, when appropriate.
Consequently, this thread will mostly seem bland, uninteresting, verbose or unwieldy.
I wrote it in a hurry to explain shit, not to make people have more fun listening to my explanations than playing the actual game :p

CURRENTLY IN PLAY. POSSIBLY LOOKING FOR 1-3 MORE PLAYERS DEPENDING ON HOW IT GOES. IF THERE IS A LOT OF INTEREST, I SEE MANY SMALLER GROUPS FORMING. I AM TRYING TO DEVELOP A SYSTEM THAT ANYONE CAN GM AND IS EASY FOR NEWCOMERS TO RP OKAY? BE NICE TO EACH OTHER SEEKING PLAYERS: POST A CRAB AND JOIN UP
Currently Eventually recruiting sharp, skilled Driver crabs, tough and dangerous Fighter crabs and heavy/powerful Lifter crabs. Must be at least 300lb, about as tall as a human, with HUGE crushing pincers, surly, bad attitude and say "fuck" or "motherfucker" worryingly often. See below motherfucker.

Sounds like your thing? Read on!
Big Mutherfuckin' Crab Truckers (profanity obligatory) is a 1-page, rules-lite RPG about being a team of humongous, monster crab truckers who
DRIVE! trucks LIFT! obstacles and FIGHT! bastards on the way to their destination, for the glory of the Crab Goddess, in order to make her strange and mysterious deliveries on time.

Rules and Setting (ONLY ONE PAGE LONG) (I will do away with the dice rules and use a simplified and custom system)
Here is someone else's play-through (and it makes for fun reading, if nothing else)
http://eagle-time.com/showthread.php?tid=234

Has anyone played this? Would like to?
Some suggestions (from another play-through) whilst playing: drink beer, play country music :p

INTRO TO BIG MOTHERFUCKING CRAB TRUCKERS! : GETTING A FEEL FOR THE GAME

CUM GET SUM!


HOW I SEE IT

HOW I FEEL IT
You will travel through a bleak , lonely, desolate and forbidding landscape, full of danger and threats.
The only friends you have are the 300lb crabs who ride with you to make your crazy deliveries for the Goddess in goddess-forsaken places
Miserable and insane people eke out a desperate existence doing what they can, mostly hillbilly shit.
Despite being gigantic crabs, you can make ready use of coffee shops, diners, motels, seedy bars, gas stations,  junk yards and much more stuff, but not without a price.
Expect helpful locations to be sparse, but available.
The other kind of locations are gangster dens, monster hives and dangerous places where you will get attacked, or where attackers come from.
Try to avoid or destroy them (if you can).
The truck radio can be used to ask for pointers, directions, and information and more.

It's a slice of Americana, as american as fucking apple pie. This is the wild west as fought by giant crabs with cannons and trucks instead of horses. It's hillbilly/redneck giant crabs toting rifles and shotguns. It's giant crabs fighting, drinking and making a fucking scene and a big-as-shit mess all over everything. Craaaaaaaaaaaabs. Crabs in the wastes, Crabs fighting cops and outlaws. Crabs motherfucker. Do you speak it?

HOW YOU FEEL IT
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
YOU ARE A MEAN SURLY CRAB AS BIG AS A MAN.
YOU LOOK LIKE A BOULDER WITH A BUNCH OF TINY FUCKING POINTY LEGS AND 2 HUGE FUCKING PINCERS.
FUCK YEAH. YOU ONE BIG FUCKING CRAB MOTHERFUCKING TRUCKER AIN'T YA?
YOU SMOKE CIGARETTES AND DRINK HARD LIQUOR LIKE IT'S GOING OUT OF STYLE.
YOU WEAR DENIM TRUCKER CAPS AND HAVE LITTLE BOOTS FOR EACH OF YOUR FUCKING FEET.
WHEN YOU GET COLD YOU PUT ON A GODDAMN SCARF OVER YOUR FUCKING LEATHER JACKET.
FUCK I DON'T KNOW, IT'S YOUR FUCKING CLOTHES, NOT MINE, DAMN.
YOU DON'T TAKE SHIT FROM NO ONE AND THE ONLY PERSON YOU RESPECT OR LISTEN TO IS THE MOTHERFUCKING CRAB GODDESS. YOU GOT THAT?

(note: you don't have to be big, smoke, drink, or wear clothes as described here. Just get in the mood for being a fucking huge crab trucker. Whiskey and driving music optional, but helpful)

LAWS OF THE motherfuckin' CRAB GODDESS
  • Edict and motherfucking decree of the motherfuckin' Sacred Crab Mountain
    1. DON'T TAKE SHIT FROM ANYONE
    2. FUCK THAT SHIT UP, DON'T FUCKING SHIT UP
    3. DON'T FUCK WITH EACH OTHER, DON'T FUCK EACH OTHER
    4. FUCKING FUCK ANY FUCKERS
    5. FUCK OFF IF YOU DON'T FUCKING LIKE IT


    Do you fucking got it?

LIFTIN! Using the massive strength of your crab trucker is more than violence.
"Trucks fall over I pick 'em up. Shitheads get close, I push them back. Danger looms, I catch it, hold it down and break its fucking neck.
I eat deliveries for breakfast. Now where's some heavy shit I can suplex?
Liftin'!

I look forward to it, snow dwarf!
Please, feel free to take your time or jump in whenever you want, if you are curious or interested.
I'm probably looking for about 4-10 players, or if there is more, I can make 2 groups.

I will post up a sheet as soon as I can but that's probably in about fifteen hours.

I'd like the truck to have chainsaw scythes and I might build a smooth talkin' lover-type crab. Yeah. The party face-crab.

So far:
Your specialty is Dancin' like a motherfucker
and your fringe benefit is Extremely Smooth Talkin'.

Everything looks fine, but you can add 1 more skill.
