You can have something done good, fast and cheap. If you want it done good and fast, it's not going to be cheap. If you want it done fast and cheap it won't be good. If you want something done good and cheap it won't be done fast. ~ Dark Brandon

I was Gming a game where the PCs run into an unknown group of mercenaries.
PC: Do they have a banner or something with a mark on it?
GM (me): Yes, you see a few tents have a banner hanging over it.
PC: What’s it look like? I want to roll streetwise.
GM: The banner has a large gold lightning bolt, on a deep purple field.
PC: Purple and gold, purple and gold....WHA!? DUDE! I HATE YOU!
GM: Huh??
PC: You picked my high school colors!
Well its funny to me at least

I just don't get it...
a) what is Star Boy?
b) What are Triax and the (supposedly completely forgotten in a Rifts setting, except as blood druids) Frenchies do in the equation...

He's saying that the guys from Quebec sold the GB design to someone else besides the NGR.

Scene: A lone wilderness town just outside Berlin faced with overwhelming counter attack from the Gargoyle Empire in our game.
The Gargoyle Attack Leader wanted to offer us a chance to surrender. Doing so would leave all the civilians in the town defenseless and make it possible for the Garg A.L. to by-pass the area to hit Berlin with a nearly-full strength force. the PC Leader's response was as follows:
"This is the Line. You will not pass. We will not stop-not EVER until you leave or die! We will never surrender our kin (Humanity) to the likes of you." The PC's lost their Full-Con Borg, Headhunter,Ley Line Walker and Cyber-Knight leader as well as 200+N.P.C.'s.The Line held. Their friends and the civilians who died were buried on October 13, 112P.A. The NGR sent enough troops to deal with the Gargoyles. Then the attended the funerals in full military honors. their tombs are marked with the leader's and Borg's last words. (See my sig)
Thanks,

..this was from last weeks Cyberpunk 2020 game; A new character was being introduced, and he was in the same bar with the rest of us. One of the PCs decided to stab a merc in the leg to get the mercs contract, being negotiated with a Fixer at that time. I pointed out that we could get hired by the merc but he didn't want to take the pay cut of having a middle man.
..So he jumps up, pulls out his M-16 and jabs the bayonette into the merc's leg (or at least tries to). My character jumps up (wearing an armored trenchcoat and sporting a mohawk), pulls out his flexible rubber baton (I call it the black mamba, and it's got a lewd profile), and stand on guard to prevent any interferance.
..The new PC, not knowing our characters, jumps up and pulls a pistol shouting "Nobody move! What's going on here?!" He's within reach, so I attempt to disarm him with my baton. I succeed, sort of. He's still holding the gun, but his arm has a new joint (I have muscle and bone weave).
..Shortening the story, I smack him in the face, he tries to shoot me with his other hand, I knock the gun away and he shoots another PC in the leg. That one pulls an AK and fires a random burst, trashing my trenchcoat, but not penetrating my subdermal armor; the new PC however is not wearing any armor and the five rounds that get past me smear him.
..The GM has a med team pick him up and fudges the rules to bring him back, but when he gets out of the hospital, he's dragged back to the bar where we're all held hostage by the owner who wants 20G's to fix the damage to his bar from the fight with the merc and the new PC.
..New PC: "I was just defending myself! I don't even know these guys!"
..Bartender: "Boy, back in my day, a man beats you about the head with a woman's pleasure toy and you kick him in the balls, not try to shoot him!"

My Character, Vago, is a little psychotic... and only slightly more arrogant. Since his inception as a character, he's been a hockey-fanatic, and I always wanted to get a helmet shaped like a goalie's mask from the Jason Movies:
(earlier, via psychic communication):
Vago: "Who are you?"
Other being: "Death"
Vago: "Well, Death, please to meet you. I'm your inevitable doom."
(later, in combat, Vago has met this other being, who emerged from a portal screming "death" to which, Vago returns "doom"... but that's not the best part... Vago and the beastie fight it off... and, Vago takes a couple of nasty hits. in his usual bravado, he stands, looks at the demon and says)
Vago: "Another round death? Well, not really death. Everyone knows, Death wears a hockey mask."
I had reached the Zen of paying Vago that day...
___
Also, in an NGR game, the players (I was GM), were gathering for an all-important briefing about some attack on the Gargoyle Empire. In the stadium-seating breifing room, all goes quite as the German Colonel rises to the podium: "The Emperor has made a critical error, and the time for our attack has come." It was online, and I could still hear the groans.
And yes, I'm always like this.

..I put this one up before to minimal response, but I still think it's great...
..Good Gamer is a Deadboy, straight up. In my game everyone gets an auto pistol as standard issue along with the C-18 as the ratio in my games is 1-5 MDC to SDC. He's gone into the building with remaining baddie, to take him out after said baddie has nailed one of the other PC's in the back with a plasma cannon, destroying his armor and nearly killing him.
Me/GM: "Okay, the scout scoops up the fallen soldier and flies him out of the ruined sky scraper with his jet pack." turning to good gamer, "What are you going to do?"
Good Gamer:" I'm going to go in there, find him, and kill him!" He then picks up a D20 and rolls it. Natural 20!
..We all laugh at the absurdity of the notion that a single roll would cover all that action, but I give him a break for the audacity and when he reaches the floor the baddie is on he catches the guy off guard. Running into the stairwell to escape the building baddie runs into the sights of a Deadboy's C-14.
..Good Gamer makes him take his armor and jumpsuit off. Once he's stripped down to his skivvies Good gamer pulls his 10mm and puts away the rifle.
..GM: "What now?"
..Good Gamer:"I'm going to interrogate him."
..GM: "Do you have the skill 'Interrogation'?"
..Good Gamer:"I've got a vibro-knife and a 10mm, how hard can it be?"
..Good Gamer is also the GM of the Cyberpunk 2020 game above....

He's right.
..Deadboy: "How many in your unit?!"
..Merc: "None, now.."
..Deadboy: "Last chance. How many in your unit?!"
..Merc: "I told you, you killed them all. I'm the only one left!"
..Deadboy <shoots merc in the foot with 10mm> "Alright, I'll ask again..."
..The guy was down to 2 hit points when he took that shot. He gurgled out the intel just as the soldier that had nearly been blown away with the Plasma Cannon used the megaphone on the UAR-1 to say "Throw down your weapons and come out or we'll destroy the building!"
..As the last two hit points bled out of him the Deadboy tossed him out the window. They were on the fifth floor.
..Psi-Stalker: "Well, he came out."

8 year old boy walks up to a Lizard Mage
"Hey, can I suck pea pea eye for you?" (that sounds like PPE< but each letter draged out"
the 8 year old was a temprol wizard PC. we all had to laugh at his audacity.
(no, I was not GMing this one, so don't ask me)

..Well, we may be picking it back up next week, provided I spend some time this afternoon working on it. Here's a link to that thread; after next Monday's session I'll update it. They've started a mercenary company out of Kingsdale with some cash they got off a crooked CS Officer...

I been gaming a long time so I have a couple to share.
this was one of my headhunters during a very early Rifts game [in 91]
To a CS Paltoon: "this is hardly a fair fight, there four of use and 32 of you, go get another 32 of you and come back."
Seven minute later
"well I guess they only have need a couple more to win."
I had 2 MDC on my armour, we were lucky
"That's it I am tired of this S**T" the same hunter in a hopeless situation I tried to blow my own head off. I rol, a natural one so I fail the fits of laughter took nearly half an hour to subside.
