Jason Morningstar has started a thread on storygames to collect your most dangerous moments from Danger Patrol games. Come join in the fun.

Matt Wilson's new alpha playtest doc for Project: Vanguard is online now.

It is, in a word, superawesome. Plus, it shares a core dice mechanic with Danger Patrol (and Savage Worlds!) so you know it must be good.

Danger Patrol Alpha: Whoops!

There was a mis-copied paragraph in the PDF I posted yesterday. It's all fixed now. You should download it again, though. Sorry about that.

New draft available!

Danger Patrol Alpha Playtest 07.12.09

I changed the Style and Role card layouts so they're easier to use (you just print the whole set and then cut the sheets in half). I also added an example for action scene 2, changed the helping rules, cut action tokens (everything works with power tokens now), and cleaned up the text a bit.

This will be the stable alpha draft for now. I'll continue to collect feedback and suggestions for an eventual beta draft some time down the line. Thanks to everyone who helped out to make the alpha version better.

(FYI: The links in the announcement post, below, have been updated to the new version, so you can still link to that post to share the game if you want to.)

Danger Patrol Alpha Playtest

The time has come. The time... for DANGER.



Danger Patrol is a retro sci-fi action/adventure game designed for fast play with no prep. Grab the alpha playtest PDF and have a go at making your own 50s-style TV adventure serial in the style of Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers, and Indiana Jones (if Indy regularly went to Venus).

This alpha draft needs testing! It got a good workout recently at Go Play NW 2009, but more is always better. If you have a chance to give it a read and especially if you play it, I'd love to hear your feedback.
