Fruitless Chase
May. 17th, 2003 01:30 amTonight was Murdock's BESM game, which was a little less frustrating than last week's, but still saw us make no progress whatsoever, and while we had some small, localized successes, our efforts were once again ultimately futile.
( game summary )
A lot of how Murdock's running the game seems to be completely contradictory to the rules, usually NOT in our favor, although sometimes it is (like his ruling that generic magic level 2 lets Umbra do *anything* at level 2, often for cheaper than a specific spell). Some of it is just plain outside the rules, like the werewolf-going-through-mirror-into-spirit-world thing that is, as far as we can tell, completely impossible for us to replicate.
Maybe there's a trick to it that we can discover... but seeing as we haven't gotten even a single character point so far (and why should we have? We haven't succeeded at anything) if it's a power then we're locked out of it anyway. Well, except for Umbra, who can do anything.
