moi moi moi je suis en train de tomber amoureux... d'un mec que je ne connais pas.
Au détour d'une recherche web je suis tombé la-dessus (des sessions JdR à diverses conv' US):
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: 1938
GM: Anthony Hartman System: BESM 2nd Ed. Players: 3-8
Game Description: High up in the Himalayas, Theron, headmaster of the Collegium Magikos and keeper of the Mind Crystal, catches a glimpse of a horrifying new evil. Dracula, the Lord of the Vampires, is gathering together a copy of the Necronomicon and he plans to use it to summon forth the Great Old Ones. In order to stop this madness, Wilhelmina Murray assembles a new team of Extraordinary Gentlemen in a race against time.
Now it is up to the masked vigilante The Black Bat Detective, Africa's legendary hero The Phantom, master illusionist Mandrake the Magician, Lothar the Prince of Seven Nations, Tarzan Lord of the Apes, police detec-tive Dick Tracy, renaissance man Doc Savage, and the mysterious crimefighter known only as The Shadow to piece together the long lost Montesi Formula. Using modern technology, the team must broadcast the spell across the entire world killing all vampires, everywhere, including Dracula -- before it's too late!
Cool, je me suis dit. Ca ressemble pas mal aux scénarios de la Ligue des Gentlement Extraordinaires que je fais jouer avec Spirit of the Century. Tarzan, Mandrake, The Shadow, terrain connu. Fun.
Et ensuite je m'aperçois que le mec décline le principe à quasiment chaque décade:
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: 1958
GM: Anthony Hartman System: BESM 2nd Edition Players: 3-8
Game Description: Psychic Tom Wallace receives a disturbing vision of the future. The maniacal Dr. Ood finds the cryogenically frozen remains of Adolph Hitler and uses Serum X to graft the despot's head to the body of one of Josef Stalin's super apes and revives him.
Wallace telepathically summons the world's greatest heroes to form a new League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Now it is up to Canadian scientist Andre DeLambre, heiress Nancy Archer, teen rebel Tony Rivers, business-man Scott Carey, farmgirl-turned-performer Jill Young, wealthy inheritress Leonora Brandt-Johnson, the mys-terious Abominable Snowman, and the creature known only as the Gill Man to band together to stop Hitler and Ood from summoning an army of giant ants and conquering the world.
bon là les références culturelles à des personnages que je ne connais pas + greffe de la tête d'Hitler sur une créature-singe de Staline, c'est un peu too much...
sauf que dans une autre convention je trouve:
Event title:The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: 1977
GM:Anthony Hartman
Game system:BESM 2nd Edition
Event description:
After the kidnapping of Dr. Rudy Wells, Colonel Steve Austin is called upon to lead a new team of Extraordinary Gentlemen to find America's missing scientists. Detective John Shaft, scientist David Banner, boxing champion Rocky Balboa, archaeologist Cornelius, Sister Bertrille of the Sisters of San Tanco, and the only remaining member of the 1960s LXG, housewife Samantha Stevens are gathered together to stop this new menace! BESM 2nd Edition is a very simple, easy-to-use system. Only two six-sided dice are required. The emphasis is more on role playing and getting into your character than combat tactics. All characters are pregenerated. Just show up and have fun! Players should bring: two six-sided dice (optional), a pencil
Là je fais Yarglaa-haaa
Rocky + Shaft + Steve Austin + Cornelius (le chimpanzé de la Planète des Singes)
Sa. mère. maudite. Il me faut ce scénar !
Puis vint le coup de grâce:
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen 1988
Game System: BESM, 2nd Ed.
Description: The Radar Rangers have detected signs of a pending alien invasion, but the threat proves to be too much for even Buckaroo Banzai to handle. When Banzai and the Hong Kong Cavaliers go missing, Dr. Sidney Zweibel, the only member to evade capture, turns to the Foundation for Law and Government for help. Now, Devon Miles assembles a new team of Extraordinary Gentlemen to combat the alien threat!
Scientist Emmett Brown, troubleshooter Angus MacGyver, soldier of fortune B. A. Baracus, former police officer Michael Knight, computer program Otto J. Man, college professor Jonathan Chase, Hong Kong police officer Kevin Chan, and veterinarian Holly Hathaway must investigate Banzai's disappearance and stop the alien invasion.
McGyver + Doc Brown + Maniman + Barracuda + K2000 à la recherche de Buckaroo Banzai.
Maman
(on passera sous silence une déclinaison 1997 avec Buffy, Blade, The MAsk, Walker Texas Ranger, Mulder et Scully, menés par le Colonel O'Neil à la recherche de l'équipe SG-1 perdue dans un monderempli de vampires)
Je sais pas qui est cet Anthony Hartman et ce qu'il a à écumer les conventions JdR avec ces scénarios sous le bras mais il faudrait vraiment que je mette la main sur lui "virtuellement" pour discuter et voir si y'a moyen de décliner ses scénarios sous SotC !!!
