So I recently got ahold of that new Numeria campaign guide, and unlike many I didn't see sword and sorcery with technology...I saw....
Gamma World...
OR
Apocalypse world...
Something like Mad Max and the thunderdome... (especially that entertainment center...two men enter...one man leaves type stuff).
Plus...with the mutants and mutations...I could see a pretty wild mutation table put together for people who want to play mutants (but they need a bigger table for mutated plants and all).
Anyone else get sort of a Gamma World type vibe from what we've seen thus far?

I've always been on the fence about Numeria, but I'm always willing to mine things for ideas. I've picked up the Numeria guide, read through the Iron Gods players guide and am now working my way through Fires of Creation. My mind is constantly going back to Gamma World and how this AP would fit perfectly in an old school Gamma World campaign. While I don't know much about the upcoming technology guide, but I'm willing to be it will further reinforce this.
Just last weekend I told one of my gaming groups that I could easily take the Numeria material, throw out the Golarion fluff and build a pretty cool post-apocalypse campaign on Earth. Of course in all fairness, I'm pretty impressed with the material as is and can see myself running this AP as written.

Gamma World + Expedition to the Barrier Peaks + Thundarr the Barbarian + Golarion = Super Happy Nostalgic Gamer!
I have nothing but LOVE for this adventure path, and am surprised ... shocked even, that not everyone is as excited about this as I am!
Relax and enjoy a little Sci-Fi in your Fantasy. They taste great together!

I was reading Lords of Rust today and thinking to myself that it would make an almost perfect Gamma World adventure... and a quick re-read of the campaign synopsis in the first adventure made me think that the entire adventure path would be perfect as a Gamma World campaign.
And that is precisely what I am going to do with it. ;)

That reminds me of a mini-campaign I really want to run one day: Dark Sun + Expedition to the Barrier Peaks. With the right group it could be so much fun!
