New World Disorder: Urban Skirmishes in a Dark Future!

 


Hello, humans!

It's been a while.  Sorry about that.  Anyway, I decided to break my slump by trying out Precis Intermedia's "New World Disorder".  It's a clever name, and I thought maybe clever rules, but that was more than 10 years ago and I've never gotten around to actually playing until now.  So, let's see how it went.

A quick way to describe this, theme-wise, is "Necromunda without the skulls".  It's a campaign game of gang warfare where you build a gang and fight it out in combat scenarios and collect experience and credits to further build out your gang.  The feel is clearly a future urban dystopia, but not so future that there are lasers or cybernetics or anything.
