James Bond 007

I'm looking at running the old James Bond 007 game as my pick. Character creation for it involves spending a big pile of points to buy skills and stats. Would people prefer it if I built the PCs or would you like me to write a chargen summary and let people build their own slick British spies? I figure we could do group chargen via blog if that's what you all wanted.

Hey Jeff...

007 sounds good to me. My vote is for you to build the characters.

You as "M" know what the mission is and the right sort of skills necessary for said mission. I mean, the "real" M wouldn't send a bunch of thugs on a stealthy B&E job, right? Or maybe he/she would, just for a dry, British chuckle. =P

peace... Dave

I am not so dogmatic about genre emulation that I would ask you to play a man just because the protagonist of our primary sourc ematerial is a dude. Mechanically, the game makes very little difference between the sexes. Female PCs get +2 when attempting to subdue male NPCs. That's about it.

Ha! I wrote 'subdue' but meant 'seduce'! Paging Dr. Freud!

I'm fine either way. I have my own copy of the book.
