[HOE] Running the perfect HoE Campaign

[Dusarat@aol.com]

I never said lower the magic level in HoE, I just said, limit the AB's from 
the players.  Most say that that is less fun, I disagree.  Yes, Mad Max was 
an Aussie, The Jerusalem Man is English, and The Gunslinger is from Maine,

    but the reason all three characters survived at least three movies/novels 
each, is that the idea of a normal man facing incredible odds in 
post-apocalyptic West (And all three draw inspiration from the American 
Western) is more interesting than guys with powers fighting guys with other 
powers (play Brave NeW World for that one).  In the case of The Jerusalem Man 
AND The Gunslinger, we have wizards/magic/vile abominations of the Wastes, 
and STILL it's an ordinary man, his guns, his character (and in one case his 
Bible) Vs The Wastes.  
    So Try it people (I know almost none of you have ever played in a party 
without any AB's).  Make an entire damned party of HoE mundanes, and put them 
in an abomination filled city hunted by an undead Combine cyborg. Let me tell 
you, that will up every factor of the game a notch or twelve.  
     Seek the point where you think
"The Mutants have four Doomsayers, we're being hunted by one undead Syker, 
The Combine has sent an Automaton Squad, we're down to ten rounds of ammo 
each and we've still got 200 miles to go before we hit Junkyard......


            Hit it"
