First game I held the players were trapped on a moon and had pissed off the Magistrate, The group consisted of a huge guy with the crude complication and a preference to heavyweapons and was a former browncoat(although kept it hidden), A hacker who was also a reader and hunted by the hands of blue and was a former browncoat, Another former browncoat that had serious temperproblems and last and least a bountyhunter with no strings attached to the independents and mostly wanted to see his buds staying alive. When the whole thing ended the huge guy had sold out his hacker pall to the men in blue, and gotten passage ofworld, the other two tried to hitch a ride with a miningcorp and got taken as slaves. Hopeing that my next group will be able to work a bit better together

Keep spreading the word about Firefly!

I'm playing the Serenity RPG, as well. Though with folks moving off soon, I think we only have about 2 good sessions left, so I'll have to wrap it up premturely.

I'm GMing this, being probably the most fanatical Browncoat of the group. It's my first time GMing anything, though (before this we'd been playing DnD, though one of the six in the crew is a newcomer). I do enjoy the story I got worked up, and the crew has constantly managed to foil my schemes up until now...

The most recent one was a boarding attempt by 4 tong members while the Captain, first mate, and mercenary were gone (i.e., all the people who could actually fight). I'd expected them to capture the Reader on board, and hold the rest of the crew hostage while they took them to a moon off of Athens. What I didn't expect was for the Companion to distract them while the crazy Mechanic set up grenade traps around the ship.

When the captain returned,
Captain: What the hell happened to my gorram ship!? Why is it smoking?
Mechanic: @(#*% *@#*@# !)$*()$* @)!!! KF

Look in my eyes, Lord, and my sins will play out on them as on a screen. Read them all.
Forgive what you can and send me on my path. I will walk on until you bid me rest.

My DnD playing buddy recently found out about the serenity rpg, and started organizing a grp, for which i am eternally gratefully. I selflessly volunteered to buy the book... hehe... selfless. As if there was anything selfless about buying a shiny book of shinyness about firefly. (or rather, abbout serenity. as far as i've read, the book cannot mention the series cause it's owned by fox. they subtly allude to it tho.)

plan to start playing next weekish, cant say this grp will last too long, but i'll be there till the last.

I want to play but my RP friends refuse to ditch Dungeons and Dragons: Forgotten Realms anytime soon. Maybe when the books go down in price I might be able to persuade them... somehow.

I've played a term-long campaign as a player (ana alcoholic, clinically depressed technophobe mechanic), and found the system rather clunky. I love the idea of the step penalties, and the d12 getting an airing is marvellous, but it does take a lot of getting used to, our group found.

For reference our crew also contained a smoking, (obsessively) gambling do-gooder captain, a rough-diamond Arabic speaking female pilot with a fancy for Mills & Boone novels, an ex-Browcoat doctor who really should be drawing his pension and getting back to the British colonies in India, a 17-year old whose town got burned down by bandits and is now ever-so-slightly a psychopath with a BIG smile and a tuneful whistle, and a mercenary with a love for big explosions. We also had a Chinese gambler/confidence trickster at one point.

Has anyone got any ideas for making the system smoother, apart from practice? And possibly some ways to make the adventures less samey?

No, THIS is what going mad feels like.
