Stumbled across this on Youtube, it's a review of PTA:

I apoligise if you have already seen it.

Brother

Has anyone used the collaborative aspect of PTA as a type of plug in for other game system/settings?

Would it work say, if I used it to run a session of All Flesh Must Be Eaten for example?

I used it to run a ShadowRun game. Worked nice.

Wait: what you mean with type of plugin? We used the SR world, but all of the PtA rules.

Brother

I meant use all the rule mechanics from SR (as an example), character creation, combat, skill tets etc, but used PTA to tell a collaborative story in the SR setting.

"Using PtA" is using the rules; and they are orthogonal to the rules in something like SR. I don't think that would be easy to align.

You could hack Karma to be something like Screen Presence, but it's factor in the rules would be very limited, is my gut assumption.
