Not looked at it, so can’t comment a yet.

At least we have them outnumbered! 🙂

FASERIP RPG

This site is a labor of love inspired by FASERIP RPG by Bucky the Blackball. This site, its main author and its contributors are not in any way associated with Bucky or his FASERIP RPG. His RPG is used because it is released under the OGL and that is the easiest platform from which to continue the great legacy of the original 1980s superhero game which started it all! FASERIP by Bucky the Blackball is a “neo-clone” as he calls it but really an edited retroclone of an original long out of print but never forgotten 1980s superhero game.

FASERIP-Slugfest: The Longshot comes in

Taking the same Danger Room approach as with Domino, Longshot vs a robot double of himself.

Battles: 10000; Sum of rounds: 30313; Longshot: 0.78 ± 0.0; Longshot No Luck: 0.22 ± 0.0;

Team Longshot = winning battles: 7753; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
Team Longshot No Luck = winning battles: 2247; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
------------------------------------------------- Combatants ------------------------------------------------
Longshot No Luck: {team=Longshot No Luck; avg Health=54.84 (from 100); damage done (per battle average)= 23.01; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 2.3/0.0/1.05/0.3/0.8; rounds (PBA)=2.36;}
Longshot: {team=Longshot; avg Health=76.994 (from 100); damage done (per battle average)= 45.16; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 4.52/0.0/2.32/0.87/0.41; rounds (PBA)=2.77;}

FASERIP-Slugfest: Luck be a Lady!

Doing some more work, I have added the basic Probability Manipulation power.

So, get here to fight her robot double in the Danger Room – the robot double having her stats, but no powers. Here’s the result:


Battles: 10000; Sum of rounds: 14886; Domino No Luck: 0.35 ± 0.0; Domino: 0.65 ± 0.0;

Team Domino No Luck = winning battles: 3460; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
Team Domino = winning battles: 6540; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
------------------------------------------------- Combatants ------------------------------------------------
Domino: {team=Domino; avg Health=93.756 (from 120); damage done (per battle average)= 40.52; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 1.01/0.0/0.51/0.19/0.14; rounds (PBA)=1.04;}
Domino No Luck: {team=Domino No Luck; avg Health=79.484 (from 120); damage done (per battle average)= 26.24; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 0.66/0.0/0.27/0.08/0.34; rounds (PBA)=0.84;}

Taking it from even to 65-35, thanks to the Luckiness.

FASERIP-Slugfest: Danger Room!

A Danger Room type scenario, Cyclops and Corsair using it for training. Cyclops is another example of using the ‘level’ attribute as a column shift holder. His writeup in the X-Men set points out he has Incredible agility with his Optic Blasts. This goes nicely with Corsair having Weapon Specialist in the Ben Riely version – in the box set he has Marksmanship.

The Riely stats have Cyclops with X-Men costume body armour at Excellent/Excellent – and Corsair only Good/Good – which means his Amazing Blaster Pistols take 3 shots to put Cyclops down. Cyclops also has an initiative advantage. All that running around in a zillion different scenarios, compared to spaceshift manoeuvring.

Anyway, an example of working on Energy and Force blast use, with a ‘best damage’ rank heuristic added.

Battles: 10000; Sum of rounds: 23178; Corsair: 0.2 ± 0.0; Cyclops: 0.8 ± 0.0;

Team Corsair = winning battles: 1958; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
Team Cyclops = winning battles: 8042; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
------------------------------------------------- Combatants ------------------------------------------------
Corsair: {team=Corsair; avg Health=-22.9425 (from 80); damage done (per battle average)= 35.33; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 1.18/0.0/0.53/0.1/0.68; rounds (PBA)=1.26;}
Cyclops: {team=Cyclops; avg Health=44.666 (from 80); damage done (per battle average)= 102.94; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 1.45/0.63/0.12/0.0/0.85; rounds (PBA)=2.02;}

Remove both their armours:

Battles: 1000; Sum of rounds: 2097; Cyclops: 0.63 ± 0.02; Corsair: 0.37 ± 0.02;

Team Cyclops = winning battles: 629; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
Team Corsair = winning battles: 371; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
------------------------------------------------- Combatants ------------------------------------------------
Corsair NA: {team=Corsair; avg Health=-19.795 (from 80); damage done (per battle average)= 49.05; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 0.98/0.0/0.42/0.08/0.56; rounds (PBA)=1.24;}
Cyclops NA: {team=Cyclops; avg Health=30.95 (from 80); damage done (per battle average)= 99.8; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 1.18/0.54/0.1/0.0/0.68; rounds (PBA)=1.61;}

Roll back to a younger version of Corsair’s son and only Amazing damage Optic Blasts: –

Battles: 10000; Sum of rounds: 21373; Corsair: 0.38 ± 0.0; Cyclops: 0.62 ± 0.0;

Team Corsair = winning battles: 3791; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
Team Cyclops = winning battles: 6209; perfect battles: 0; close-call battles: 0;
------------------------------------------------- Combatants ------------------------------------------------
Cyclops Early: {team=Cyclops; avg Health=30.435 (from 80); damage done (per battle average)= 69.83; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 1.18/0.51/0.1/0.0/0.7; rounds (PBA)=1.63;}
Corsair NA: {team=Corsair; avg Health=10.175 (from 80); damage done (per battle average)= 49.56; hits/slams/stuns/kills/misses (PBA)= 0.99/0.0/0.42/0.09/0.58; rounds (PBA)=1.27;}

Still basically similar – each take only two hits to win – +2 Initiative bonus is a big differentiator.
