[BNW] Weighing in on the Timetripper

[David Fryer <badsign_98@yahoo.com>]

I really like the idea for this character type,
although as has been pointed out the mechanics of
running it are a nightmare. It reminds me of Flashback
from Blood Syndicate, who could rewind time for about
three seconds. This wasn't time to really change
things but it did give her a chance to warn her
teammates about danger or save their lives.

I like the idea of only allowing the character to
replay the last turn. Imagine for instance a Gunner
has just wasted on of your player characters and they
are deader the disco. Well the Timetripper could go
back and warn her in just enough time to save her
life. Nothing before that has changed but you've
managed to save a fellow character and maybe pick up a
favor or two. I would suggest having the save player
bring the sodas and pizza on the Timetrippers day.
