"This Summer... A Man... With Nothing to Lose..." Say it in a deep, manly voice, and you got it. This game will let you play in the world of the Movies, in which you can punch through a door, hit the "slo-mo" button to dodge bullets and see subtitles when one talks foreign to you.
The rules revolve around the stunts you pull, giving you more dice to roll if you're really ludicrous. Everything is looked at through the Holywood Lense: experience points are Popularity, feats are your Repertoire, your character class is a Cast Type and you're driven by your Guts and Coincidence.
The mechanics for Extreme Vengeance start out simple. You begin with Guts and Coincidence. Guts (rated 2-6) determines how well you do things - shoot, drive, punch, etc. Coincidence (rated 4-7) determines whether you are lucky enough to grease by safely when the stuff hits the fan (Sure Arnie, jump out of that jet. The marsh will break your fall). As the game proceeds, a character's Guts will increase every time there is an "emotionally-charged" scene (e.g. some heinous act against a friendly member of the supporting cast, a crisis, or something that personally ticks you off. The characters in the leading roles build to the game's climactic scene by increasing Guts, and - get this - you can't even take on the Big Baddie until your Guts are at least equal to his. Coincidence works the other way. Each time you use it, you lose it, dropping one point each time. |
