@CatDad Haven't run dX, but BESM 1-2E are good at modelling a range of powers, and at the same level it's mostly balanced (have to be careful to not make glass cannons).

But your weak human type won't have any chance against someone built with mid-high level powers, it REALLY scales up fast. Bambi vs Godzilla scaling.

Here’s the final and sadly truncated synopsis of the last Palomino adventures in my _Big Eyes Small Mouth_ Mecha Space Western. Remember to do your write ups timely, kids!

The back half of my first adventure for the Big Eyes Small Mouth game of an anime inspired Mecha space western is up. Cliches abound but with giant robots! Mysteries pile up!

Starting the first part of the story of Palomino, my _Big Eyes, Small Mouth_ Mecha Space Western.

Wow I had forgotten how hard Dave was mocking the Western Movie Native American story tropes.

The discovery today that there was a 4th edition of BESM reminded me of the fun I had with short Mecha-Anime-Inspired games. Rather than push my self to do more New Salem over the kids break, you get a week of Anime Content on ye olde Blogging machine.

The first is my Mecha Space Western with Giant Robots, Gamblers, and Ne'er Do Well Cattle Barons. It was a hoot.

@nlinggod Then what you want is something point-buy, because that allows players to have enough shared context in order to create their own powers, generally generic, or in some other way allows a focused construction of a character which can then go forward.

So we are basically looking at superhero games that aren't incredibly crunch.

Well, #BESM still stands on that one – but only first edition. That can be a little harder to get your hands on but totally worth it. (preview.drivethrurpg.com/en/pr)

Capes has an entirely different structure, but it's absolutely capable of doing exactly what you want. It's just a very unusual architecture – but I would absolutely use it for what you describe. Unfortunately it's a little bit hard to get your hands on these days – and by that I mean there's absolutely no place selling it. But if you would like to see it after looking at commentary on the net, I can probably slide you a copy. Yes, the cover looks silly.

I think someone else mentioned FATE, but I would also put on the table Fudge, it's originator. More of an RPG toolkit, you you can build something lightweight and focused exactly on what you want to do and it'll work just fine. Totally worth it. (fudgerpg.com/about/about-fudge)

Given the list, I'd probably go with Wushu followed by Fudge as good starting places.

Nicht wirklich Spiel sondern Rundenidee die ich wohl nie umsetzen werde können:
Basierend auf #DnD5e #BESM oder #Anime5e zusammen mit einigen Otaku-Freunden eine Mini-Kampagne wo statt Monstern Monstergirls "bekämpft" werden.

@Tim_Eagon #BESM 1e and 2e are quite different but each good in their own right. 1e is barely a book, but a really quick implementation and feels more gonzo. 2e has lots of bits and bobs but is easier to see how a concept can make be made mechanically.

#Exalted might also be a good fit, depending on the flavor of anime

@Tim_Eagon I don’t have a great answer for this but I still think occasionally about picking up a secondhand #BESM 3e just to satisfy young bss’s curiosity and love of the first two editions.

Reading over the old setting Centauri Knights.

I'm struck by how much the setting feels like "Avatar meets Horizon Zero Dawn," even though it predates both by many years.

#Homebrew #TTRPG #BESM I once created an anime homebrew campaign using BESM ( Big Eyes Small Mouth ) where the players were anthropomorphic animals piloting animal themed mecha ( but the mecha didn't match the PC's animal type, so a bird could by piloting a panda mecha ). The players were a kind of galactic police force and the big bad where anthropomorphic insects with insect mecha. Everything was exaggerated to the absurd, I loved it.

It doesn't look like there are a lot of #Dyskami fans on Mastodon yet, so I'll toss out a few hashtags and see who bites (or bytes). :-) #BESM #BESM4 #BESMMultiverse #AbsolutePower #Anime5E #anime #RPG #TTRPG #roleplaying #TriStat

@jessmahler honestly I haven’t seen anything from #BESM is a while, but I boosted in case someone else has
