Hey /tg/ let's discuss the 'punk genres and the best systems for each. Cyber punk, steam punk, diesel punk and any other 'punks you can think of.

My personal favorite is diesel punk but I've only found 1 system that is specifically made for it, akyro diesel age and the system is only ok. Anyone know anything that would run good diesel punk games?

I've looked at GURPS and I do understand why everyone shills it so hard. Just a personal preference of mine but I believe a master of one is better than a jack of all, I like my systems specific and made for a single purpose/setting/style.

Been doing Cyberpunk, Steampunk and Magepunk for decades with this and it's predecessors. Now that I have Golden Age, I can do Dieselpunk.

Aren't you helpful?

GURPS' sole strongpoint is that they have a sourcebook for every conceivable thing under the sun.

And they're all pretty lackluster

OP here, been doing lots a digging since I made this thread.

Anyone got a pdf of one of the versions of Age of Steel? The author isn't doing playtesting right but I still can't find his previous editions to see what it looks like.

Also, anyone played the Warbirds rpg? How is it? Worth the price?

Astropunk.

Astronauts, Clumsy and Chunky spaceships, Interstellar-Asteroid-Farms, lost space stations.

spooky hints of aliens without actually showing or interacting with them.

what about Bio-Punk?

>>55000310
Only even slight experience I have with it is one of the GURPS books sadly. Other than that any good systems for it you know of?

You mean ribofunk

Cyberpunk is a genre, the rest are just aesthetics.

Check out Deadlands: Noir for Dieselpunk. It uses the Savage Worlds rules and is rather nice.

On the topic of Steampunk - was Opus Anima ever translated?
>>
Honestly I think i could use FATE for any variety of "punk" game with a group willing to worldbuild collaboratively
>>
Cryptomancer for Crystalpunk.

Daily reminder that 4 out of 5 "setting specific" mechanics are fucking shit and were made by utter idiots.

Good "master of one" game is so fucking rare I consider them exception rather than a rule.
