I need playtesters for Badass Space Marines, a game of action/science fiction/horror films (basically it's a homage to Aliens).

It is designed for zero-preparation, single session play. Each mission uses templates that are completed during play to make it a unique story, and the marines themselves are pre-generated. All the players have a lot of power to make up the story as it goes.

It's also got a combat system designed to emulate action movies – your roll allows you to narrate original combat stunts that damage the enemy. Additionally, damage to the squad powers up the players to allow awesome combos.

The playtest draft is available to download from http://genericgames.co.nz/

I'm looking for these things from playtesters:
    1. Actual play and feedback on how it went. In particular I need feedback on balance issues (was it too easy or too hard for the marines to win?) and your impressions of the mission templates and squads (Were they uninteresting? What marine specialties were ignored? How did you find repeating play with the same template went?).
    2. General feedback on the clarity of the text. Anything not make sense? Anything that is explained too much? Is there anything missing from the rules summary sheets that ought to be there?

Please post your actual play experiences and feedback to one of:
- The Actual Play forum at The Forge (http://www.indie-rpgs.com/forum/index.php?board=14.0)
- Badass Space Marines playtest forum at the New Zealand Roleplaying and Gaming forum (http://www.nzrag.com/bb/viewforum.php?f=21)
- Comment on the Generic Games blog (http://genericgames.co.nz/blog/?p=6)

Hey,

If you want playtesters, I'd like to give it a shot.  But I am gaming groupless.  You can PM me and we could set up a session on IM if you'd like.
