So after spending the last 3 years drowning in Pathfinder, D&D, and Runequest campaigns I have finally been able to convince my group to let me do a non-fantasy setting.

I really would like to run a cyberpunk campaign in the vein of 80s mecha anime. Bubblegum Crisis, AD Police, Old Ghost In the Shell. Stuff like that.

I would like for the party to have to deal with battle suits, Combat androids with particle lasers, and Pop-Stars with combat mecha on missions of revenge. The whole glorious hair sprayed neon drenched synth rock shebang.

So I my main question is what's the best system to handle this? I have kind of ruled out Shadowrun because I don't want to deal with meta humans and magic. I know Bubblegum Crisis has it's own tabletop setting but I don't know how well it has aged. I'm largely unfamiliar with Cyberpunk but I am looking into it. Are there any other alternatives?

Thanks in advance.

If your looking for a pure Cyberpunk game you could try the system of the same name Cyberpunk 2020

And of course you could go with your General System of choice, which could be easier considering you seem to want to do some mixing and matching of genre

Well if that's the case then I will just roll with the BGC books.

So, on to plot hooks. I'm thinking for the intro I will have the party be hired to guard the concert for a pop star who is playing in town. When she gets kidnapped by a motorcycle gang they will have 2 days to get her back.

Bubblegum Crisis' ruleset is very solid and works very well with the setting. Might want to make the changes that came with the suggestions one of the designers made back in the 30th anniversary thread on /m/.

I don't want to be that "everything was better before I was born" guy, but 80s anime just have a really nice aesthetic. I like modern anime too of course, but it just feels so clean and airbrushed while 80s anime feels a lot more "raw". I have no idea what I'm talking about but I hope someone can translate my sentiments into something that makes sense.
>>
>>52390203
lol! Its because (by neccesity) older anime were all hand drawn, while modern anime are made as cheaply as possible with a computer!
>>
>>52390203
The aesthetic of something like Bubblegum Crisis has more detail because it's an OVA made in an economic boom, while modern anime is focused on decreasing production costs as much as possible since the industry is no longer as inundated in as much cash as they were in the 80s and 90s?

It's the move from hand drawn traditional animation format to the cheaper standardized digital animation format
It's why all modern anime looks roughly the same and 80's anime all feel different depending on the studio

Look at this video, it was made by one dude and despite being a little rough looks better than 98% of anime today

I'd recommend Tokyo Nova because it sets out to recreate cyberpunk anime from the get go, and if you don't like magic elements, those can actively be ignored;it's more like Silent Mobius than Shadowrun, magic is not nearly as pervasive or known, so it's far more likely that it'll never come up. It's also a surprisingly solid ruleset for something based in part on SRS. The Arashi class even starts with A.D. Police style combat mecha. It uses playing and tarot cards rather than dice, which might be weird if you're hosting over the internet, but my dumb ass managed to run it just fine over Roll20, so you can probably can do it better. There's a mega with it in the 4plebs archives that you can easily find if you're not developmentally challenged.

I'd recommend it over something like Cyberpunk 2013/20/77 because, bless their souls, while R. Talsorian certainly loves the franchises they make games off of, their actual systems are either fundamentally broken without sufficient kitbashing and houseruling (Fucking Interlock) or scale poorly (Fuzion). Hell, Mekton, which is based off of the same Interlock system as Cyberpunk 2020 (and whose roadstriker rules are compatible with Cyberpunk 2020) actively scared off players do to the clumsiness of the ruleset. Something I haven't had happen with any other TTRPG I've hosted.

Cyberpunk 2020 or GURPS. No point trying to pretend anything else can handle this.

In my opinion the best game for a 80s anime setting, would be Cyberpunk 2020. It's heavily influenced by A.D. Police/Bubble Gum Crisis (loss of humanity through cyberware, special anti-cyborg SWAT teams, large caliber SMGs...) and Appleseed (power armors).

Another game that would fit the 80s anime bill would be TriStat: Ex Machina. TriStat is the successor of BESM, the generic anime TTRPG. It's more generic and abstract than Cyberpunk 2020 as there is no background or equipment/cyberware catalogue, but it works. It also has one distinct advantage over Cyberpunk 2020 - it has a very decent netrunning system.

Determine TN (10 = simple, 15 = moderate, 20 = difficult, 25 = very difficult, 30+ = extreme).

Take skill level. Add corresponding stat. Add bonus, deduct penalties. Roll 1d10. Add everything up.

Compare to TN. If score equal or superior to TN = success. If lower than TN = failure.

A natural 10 on the roll is a critical success. Roll again and add score. A natural 1 is a fumble. Roll again and check out Fumble Chart.

Congratulation! You know how to play Cyberpunk 2020.

I'm super new to Cyberpunk 2020, and I've coerced my friends to start a campaign with me.
Now, the only other time we played any tabletop game, it was D&D 5e, and the DM didn't even have a map for us (It was a shitshow that lasted 5 hours) so, how do you guys make maps? By hand with 1 inch grid paper? Or do you have actual quick map guides to help you?

Alright, since there ain't sh it happening at work today. Time to brainstorm some world building.

The year is 2038. The world has changed dramatically after the second great Tokyo earthquake in 2019. The capital of Japan was completely flattened in less than twenty minutes and the death toll was in the millions.

The reconstruction effort saw the consolidation of the great Japanes zaibatus into (name pending) heavy industries too coordinate rebuilding and re request of the remainder of the Japanese government. The first step was an elimination of immigration restriction on the Tokyo area in order rapidly create a labor force for the reconstruction of the city. Additionally, development of robotics and labor aids saw the rise of powered exoskeletons to assist in rebuilding. Years later breakthroughs in biotechnology would see the replacment of human labor with cybernetic laborers (should I just call them boomers?)

The influx of tens of thousands of migrant laborers has also turned the rebuilt Tokyo into a truly international city. Resentment between the japnese traditionalists and the multi cultural new city have caused cultural and political turmoil.

The growth of high tech robotics has also led to the kind of crime which the traditional Japanese police force has been unable to cope with. Forcing constitutional change and the creation of a new heavily armored police.

Criticism is welcome. Aplogies for typos phone autocorrect tends to be my nemesis

Bubblegum Crisis had an RPG called Bubblegum Crisis RPG. It was a modification of the Fusion system, and despite being kinda crunchy, actually stands up far better than the Cyberpunk 2020 rules ever did.

What will you do if the players stop the kidnapping from happening ? Have a contingency plan so that you don't feel like you have to railroad them into the hook.

I've done two 80s styled cyberpunk campaigns ( one was mixed with Mekton Zeta) and they were huge hits with the players due to how easy the system is and how conducive it is to getting just the right amount of crunch to be helpful for gameplay without infringing on the roleplaying. I can't recommend it enough.

>>52400272
I like it for a hook. If you go for C2020 I suggest that you leave it like that and then have your characters do a session zero with you to build their lifepaths together, have them invent some stuff ( factions, npcs, events, etc) that are linked with their characters through the lifepath and then populate your world and its history with them. This will allow everything that happens to feel personal and will make your PCs care more about interacting with the world.

this might be cliched, but I would consider the fact that in a corporate future, global warming will probably reach the point where lots of coastal areas in southeast asia and the pacific are getting flooded. japan, china, and s. korea would probably have the infrastructure and money to put up seawalls, and/or crazy shit like arcologies if its far enough in the future.

thus you would have tons of poor refugees flooding into japan.

20 years of CP2020 and I never made any precise map. I only draw rough maps for combats and I have like a city map for traveling around the city.

For combat maps I like to use paper with 5mm grids. One grid represent usually one meter (small bed or office desk is 2x1, a large bed is 2x2, most other furniture will be 1x1 or 2x1, a car is 4x2, etc.). I'm against using miniatures and exact cartography as it slows down down combat and I'm all for high-speed combat. PCs are marked with letters, NPCs usually with numbers, killed/destroyed stuff is just crossed out from the map.

Reminder that the (Tiberian) Command & Conquer series was basically wargaming brought to the personal computer inspired by Cyberpunk anime and the Yugoslavian civil war/First Gulf War.

You have the Ion Cannon straight from Akira, and the ORCA VTOL straight from Bubblegum Crisis. You have Kane, an ancient alien running an evil religious corporation that engages in xenobiological engineering just like in Guyver.

If you actually look up the concept art for the first C&C game, you'll even see that the powered armour and cyborgs added in the sequel were actually meant for the first one. They just moved those scifi elements ahead to the sequel to keep the game distinctly 5-minutes-in-the-future.

Neat, didn't really see that (my first experience with C&C was a box set that went up to Generals: Zero Hour, so I didn't play the older games all that much), but I get it.

Red Alert 3's Japan faction had a bit of the same idea, but it was more just a mish-mash of any and everything Japan (including a magical/OP psychic girl)

Pretty cool, I like it. A few things were out of place like a TIE bomber taking on a whole squadron of X-wings, or even a single TIE fighter taking on an X-wing on even terms, but it was still well animated. Plus it's nice to see the Empire really win an engagement for a change.

Many of us have exactly the same feeling.

Thinking back, it's not like many of those shows or OVAs were masterpieces of any sort, but I really miss the visual style. I can still remember getting my hands on Akira or Ghost in the Shell comics for the first time. Those were something really new and different in the 90's. They might not be perfect, but they had that certain kind of 'cool' manga doesn't seem to have nowadays.

Last time I had that feel was probably Nihei's Blame or Jodorovsky&Gimenez' Metabarons.

The aesthetic of 80s/early 90s anime is fantastic and I have always thought so (I was a kid in the 90s, not being a hipster here). The moodiness of the hand coloring and the texture of film grain adds so much character and grittiness that isn't there in sterile computer generated stuff.

Anime itself on the other hand...isn't really good. Its the epitome of style over substance and I've only ever enjoyed a handful, all of them OVAs or movies.

The style was used in tons of video games though, which is where I got most of my appreciation for it.
