Ok Madman finished. Will start something at midnight or afterwards. Oh and I forgot a game. Edited in ( maximum votes younguys Have is three Incase change minds.)

Ruin Space: As Humanity travels the stars. There is a massive ship graveyard found. Time to raid some dead ships and collect that precious loot!

Most different game as the PCs each get character template and govern themselves. Teams of six individuals exploring seemingly abandoned space ships. ( given classic sci fi tropes. Obviously not.)

Decided to update now. Got more free time than I thought I had.


Nomads:

They are currently camped outside the Nano Factory’s zone. Could swear to see people there. Though not being aggressors, could easily be a trap.

Instead their brave leader flies up into the air in his Phoenix Armor as he lands ontop of a building. “ Hello, we are just traveling Nomads. We mean no threat to you. We are just camping. If you seek trade. You may come to us.” As he then flown back to his home base.

Second move is improve medical procedures.

+ 4= 7.

Third act

Craft shop. Craft ammo (120 = 4 out of 6. 100 left. Now additional + 800 ammo rounds.


Arms Race:

Water Purifier:

3,4,4= 4,4,5

Power fueled device that one scoops water into and causes oxygen effect to cook the water if impurities. Making it safe to drink.

Can be used to recycle water. So water units remain.

+ 4 Units.  Cost: 8 metal, 1 spare part and 4 computer chips.


Pax Enclave

Thrilled by their last conversation and the fact they made it to the gate.

The troops made it and begun to use the gate. Their leader slides the rune blade in a access port. The blade glows blue. Then green as he twists it. The panel turns green.

Roll, Dodge rules (1 is disaster, 2 is bad. 3 is meh. 4 is good. 5 is great. 6 is over kill with bad results too.)

6.

As it goes green and unlocks the gate. Massive gate open. Exotic jungle ahead. But there was a back lash. The feed back goes blue and red. Layer six and nine also opening at same time. A large siren noise through the globe ship.

“ Warning. Warning! Unauthorized entry!! Send out the cleaners!”

The walls of the ship shake. From the dark matter figures mold out. Robotic attackers. Of many shapes and sizes. Now seeking to hunt who could hurt the ship. Not beasts, humans? Yes!!


Effect: Now roving robotic attackers. Have fun staying alive.

Immediately the advanced force encountered massive humanoid machines. Rune  blade manages to hit machine in vitals , shutting it off. Then having to go back. Fleeing the machines. Cannot collect machine remains.

Second act.

Develop/craft Gaus pistols (6 units. Cost 60 metal. 8 Batteries.)

Equip for new guard.

Stand perimeter making sure nothing shows up.


Third act

The scouting party is almost home. Did not sleep the night, too busy dodging machines. (17. No one hurt but not full fighting spirits.)


Arms Race:

Robo Armor:
6,3,6 = 6,5,6

A prototype armor for power armor Attempt. Comes with antenna for scan and radio function. Also comes with a ionic field maker for more protection. Lastly, it has a onboard AI program to help guide would be warrior in battle and exploring.

+ 5 units ready (not troopers but individual.)


Aragamai, Beast Lords And others? Latter. Ow busy.

Current state of Orbiter: All layers now have smal to large robotic hunter units. Apparently a certain aspect of AI hates peoppme trying to find layer 1/escape.

Not to mention spare parts, computer chips, and runic chips.


Aragamai

The scout teams made it to a new site north of their base. Four days worth of travel done fast. They discover?

Eidolon Network: Team Aragami Can now be radio/chat and track one another over vastness of area (instead of fog of war thing. Real time corresponding stuff. To coordinate.)

The rest of tribe, all transhuman now leave the base. They found trio of settlements under machine attack.

Combat: 20 + 5 for ambushing machines. (As they are focused on villagers.:


They came. Like a tide, of liberators. The super human Aragamai torn through the machines and bio mod power. Such as napalm breath or electric bursts aside raw strength. As the machine Horde was destroyed. The Aragamai look to the others.

“ No need to say thank you or anything. As long we work together. It’s all going to be alright.”

Pact made. Also Aragamai claim spoils.

400 scrap
500 Batteries
70 spare parts
8 runic chips
12 electronics

“Blue The Officer last moves.

Come back so Eidolon ststem Up. And the last humans go into change.

Next turn: The other guys on this layer show up.

Tech: 4,2,4= 4,4,4 ( Not revealed, must meet.)


All non reveal npcs are developing tech, arming and fighting machines.


Beast Lords:

The scouting party continues west. As the riders have spider silk armor. They land on massive building the gas found.

“ Fortress activated.”

Sister coyote is thrilled as the walls glow. The main energy guns activate. Roasting big and humanoid machines. As they now know of their location.

The main base. Only two actions this turn. But got + 4 modifier. As at home base everyone one who can fight rode on a fierce beast and rushing the machine demons.

The result 16. + 20.

The Beast Lord stampede wrecks the hellish machines. The attacks did nothing. Only two riders died, the attack was blocked by spider silk armor. But fell off and trampled. As the machines actually retreat for the south east and west. The Battle field was a mecha graveyard.

“ This, our land. Our people.” The Dead were honored and burned. All was well for now.

Arms Race

Aero Musket:
5,6,4= 6,6,5

The Aero Musket is a wonder of engineering despite being crafted of a primitive people. The gun fires a single slug of ammo or. Gyro jet. But no gas used, compressed air launches the bullet to target. And the gun must pop open, air charge and slide another in. Aside this it’s great. For typical machine guns kill the air with explosion/gas release. Not these beauties.

They are built to be long and can double as a poke arm, and a simple think of a looking glass makes them cave man style sniper rifles. Beast Lords are primitive in their ammo choice are melted down metal balls. Not generic bullets. So the impact punches a wider area. But in some cases just as lethal as a bullet depending on target and where it hits.

Turn 4 starts soon.

The Deal with transhuman for future refernce:

Transhuman officers get 3 points towards what they can do. Transhuman Warriors, depends in total, just better than average humans. ( and the post humans are even more insane.)

The point powers. Expensive to cheapest.

3 pointer

Blob body: Because having a shape shifting body that can only be damaged by extreme heat is a little much. Also toxins/ acid works and disease. Also something really sharp, though crushing one has immunity to.

Bio Field: Having a biological recharging force field.

2

Napalm Breath: Hey, now a walking flame thrower

Regen: Not true stuff but can heal back from most injuries, including regrowing limbs.

Flight: Either big powerful wings or a speciality organ that makes a Force field for flight.

Discharge: Instead of flame breath, project electric attacks. Stings user, hurts other much worse.

1:

Super human stats: Just better than human overall

Super senses: detecting stuff with ease

Aqua Breath: Breathing under water, because there are sunken places in map that may, have important things.

Leap: Able to jump very well.

Natural Weapons: Slash/crush things with living weaponary attaches to user like teeth, claws and such.

Dura Flesh: Having nigh unbrrakable skin.

Multiple arms: set of four or six arms.

0:

In general the forms one takes and animal aspects are freebies. Including stuff like frog tongues and etc.

As for votes:

Next game will be Rage Across the Heavens.


As for other Pangaea games

Fantasy

Pangaea Empire: Basically fantasy world Roman Empire. Plot and fight to be new Emperor in age of steel, magic and monsters.

Islanders: Exploring islands with boats and dealing with npc and pc forces.

Warlord: The original. This time with two or three clans. Rule a people, establish dominance against man, Beast and even Gods.

Exiles: One player suggestion game. Where your people lost their homeland and on the move to gain a new homeland.


Sci Fi

Prophets of Wastes: A machine uprising brought humanity down to size. Machines defeated, but humans are coming back. New religions are springing up that is empowering said people to great status.

Manage your people and such. Can be one of three modes. Community, Convoy, or Nomad tribe.

Neo Eden: Alterantive version where a colony ship lands on new planet. Six different schools of thought to how humanity should survive. This, is main source of  conflict.

Genesis: A super weaponized virus wiped out all but ten percent of humanity. The survivors manage to make genesis bank that grew new humans. In time the original humans died off so the bank grown, and their biological descendants now inherited the world. What a strange one at that though.


As for Ruin Scape:

Manage your onboard base and teams of six PCs explore wrecked space craft or anomalous objects. Adventure, horror and sci fi toys exist.

A new note:  Yes you can use Arms Race time to improve on pre existing design if one wishes.

Also Can use it to revise treasures. Mainly the generation stuff.

Nano Factory, Living Refinery, Genetic Vault, Mana Tree, And the Lithosphere.

Two kinds of upgrades up to three levels.

1: More material room to generate more.
2: Cut costs of building so more stuff.

Also going to text a leader about another poteinal upgrade.

It’s in the thread under new treasures. Not mana tree maybe, but still there is a gigantic ass tree onboard helping keep atmosphere clean, generates lots of food and lumber too. Like the Giving Tree And Godzilla mixed.
