I wonder if there are or will be novels in the Fallout setting. The tabletop spinoffs look pretty fun!

Can confirm the table top rpg is a blast. The player in my group with the highest Speech score is a Mr. Handy that gained sentience out of sheer boredom, and his personality can shift depending on which hat he's wearing on his middle eye stalk-- he also has a giant foam cowboy hat taped to his main body.

The tabletop games are all really fun. Your mileage might vary depending on how deep you go with the games and how much effort you want to put in on each one but they kill a few hours and can be quite interesting.

Imagine if Bethesda partnered with Paizo for the ttrpg, imagine every year or 2 we'd get 2 or 3 full campaigns with unique settings, factions, and characters. Shit would be baller

Great video n_orte I wonder if someday they’ll make radio plays/podcasts set in Fallout. I’ve seen comicbook companies do that, and you could argue it fits the aesthetic of the franchise. If they do, I’m sure you’ll make a video about it to let us all know.

I first got into Fallout via the tabletop game and it's been a blast, I don't have any issue with the action point system, it keeps things interesting between the players and the game master and oh boy, have both sides of the table had some fantastic moments where things in no way turned out the way we expected. The Roll20 VTT can run it, people are creating new macros for it all the time that make keeping track of things dirt simple-- it's a good time all round for people looking for anything that isn't high-fantasy in setting.

Im a bit torn on the AP system, i dont really like a gm vs player mentality and some times when i use them it does feel like i am explicitly trying to kill a player or make them fail. In other systems with normal criticals, it doesnt feel like this the enemy just so happened to ruin a players day. I always run combats tactically, meaning enemies will use cover, go for healers or squishy blasters rather than just dogpiling the dude in the heaviest armor who is shrugging off blows. But thats different and when i do use ap it can feel like im trying to intentionally ruin someones time. Though i really do enjoy the system and am having a blast running it.

For anyone interested in MtG, fallout cards arent entirely legal outside of the commander format although commander is the most popular format so its not so bad. If you want to play the "original" formats and want to use fallout cards they have to be reprints although there are some good ones like hullbreaker horror as mirelurk queen queen in there although booster packs are way overpriced for fallout, yes you're getting nice cards but theyre roughly 5 times more expensive than a standard MtG booster. The commander decks are a decent entry product in my opinion if you have someone to teach you how to play though as they each have a specific playstyle that you could reasonably come against although the science deck was the first time in a LONG time that I saw anyone use the "energy" mechanic. Thats not to say its bad, its just quite niche to upgrade relying on a set from 6 or 7 years ago that didnt really get revisited even with the recent "all will be one" and "march of the machines" sets that were kind of revisiting all of the sets of the years.

i have bought the fallout 4 board game and it's a lot of fun, if a bit easy. i'd say it's obviously best for fans, but can be perfectly enjoyed by people new to fallout, so dont be afraid to invite others to play. up till now i've only played it among a group of 3 more friends, so maybe it's actually a bit too easy like that, but it's been a while and i dont quite remember the details. for more hardcore board-gamers like my friends and i who play the game of thrones board game at least every month, i think it's smartest to play with gloves off from the getgo. you cant "kill" anyone anyway, all that happens is a respawn at a slightly inconvenient location. if you're BoS, take off your armor to speed up and use your hp as a resource like any other player. even if you accumulate a ton of radiation it most likely wont ever get maxed out unless you're actively going for it for some cheap xp with the ghoul or mutie, whichever it was. get into fights a lot by lowering your hp to attract npc's, get your skills up and then screw over the players who were rushing the missions. rinse and repeat with short mission-related breaks that are the most lucrative until you're in front in terms of story progress, equipment, lvl/xp/special and hp to keep enemies off your back (in approximately that order) buy the base game, play it once to get it, a second time to know if you like it but want more (then buy the expansions) or if you didnt like it at all, try selling it on craigslist or sth. but honestly, if you're considering buying it, you'll like it. ps: my friends gave me their caps to use in the game instead of the cardboard ones the game comes with. love the style!

I ran a fallout 2d20 campaign, and there are two big problems with it, neither are the action point/luck system. The first is it's impossible to balance an encounter without just unit spamming the players. The player characters get so much more powerful than the world so fast, especially in a group of four, that they end up just ending a deathclaw in one round. The other is, the source books are just horribly written. Unclear, to the point of being obtuse in some places. It reads like one person wrote the mechanics, the other added the Fallout lore, and these two people never met or spoke ever.
