- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

This has been around for several years and I've played two short campaigns in it.

It was full of win, especially because the dice system made all of my friends bleed through the ears.

I want this game.
My shit list: Stephen Harper, anarchists that complain about taxes instead of institutionalized torture, those people walking, anyone who lets a single aspect of themselves define their entire personality, salesmen that don't smoke pipes, Fredericton New Brunswick, bigots, philosophy majors, my nemesis, pirates that don't do anything, criminals without class, sociopaths, narcissists, furries, juggalos, foes.

I've played one of the other games available on that site (Inspectres, which was fun).
I'd like to at least take a look at this one.

Players are "Discordian Double Agents" and have 'catma' points. They are also infiltrators in one of 5 major groups, The Hashashin, The Rosicrucians, The Greys (aliens), The Illuminati and some other one. Each group has its own special "Dogma" which you can use to do special stuff... The Dogma of the assassins allows you to force your will on others, the dogma of the Rosicrucians allows you to manipulate the elements etc. Everytime you use Catma (the Hail Eris! Emergency plan) it drops a point, everytime you use your dogma, it grows a point. If your Dogma every outweighs your catma, you become a triple agent and start working against the Discordians.

Otherwise the rules are entirely unnecessary.

Oh and dice rolling is basically x number of d6 and your goal is any form of 5.

So if you roll 5 dice and get:
2 3 5 4 1
You have three successes, 5,  (2+3) and (4+1)

Hey, did Cram flounce or something while I was AWOL? I'd expect to see him in such a thread by now.

Anyway, if any of you rolespags and I ever meet, we are SO doing a lil' session of this game!
