About the adventure
The eager Troubleshooters are assigned to guard an experimental super-warbot, the Mark 4, against possible sabotage before its final test run. Fortunately, nothing short of a ground-zero thermonuclear blast can harm the Mark 4. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said about the Troubleshooters. What is the Paranoia Perfect Edition? Do you like to backstab fellow Troubleshooters (for the greater good of Alpha Complex, of course)? Do you like to play in fear of being backstabbed before you can backstab your fellow troubleshooters? Do you like absurdity and laughs? Do like making new friends, because The Computer will always be your best friend (be scared). If you answered yes, then Paranoia Perfect Edition is the game for you (answering "No" earns you 4 Treason Stars) .

About me
Hi there RPGers! We're, John, Joe, and Rob the GMBros! If you're looking to game with hyper muscled, toxic dudes, you're on the wrong page! We're the GMBros because we're actually two brothers and cousin who's basically a brother, who love to run role-playing games for fun! The only thing toxic about us might be the paste we ate as kids (it was the '70s, things were different). We started playing and GMing TTRPGs back in 1985 with D&D when we were 11 and 12. Today were way older than 11 and 12 and loving TTRPGs more than ever! How would we describe our GMing style? We try to channel Quentin Tarantino if he was directing a movie co-written by the Rick & Morty writing room. We aim for old-school fun with new-school game systems and VTT bells and whistles. We run some games individually and some games we run together, with one of us guiding the story while the others play monsters and NPCs to make our games more engaging and immersive. What can you expect from our sessions? -Great visuals, maps, music, and sound effects using the Foundry VTT. -A fun and friendly Discord community. -Opportunities to play tons of different game systems both rules-lite and crunchy, both narrative and tactical. -Nail biting combats that push characters to the max! -Lots of laughs and fun! Why are our games free? Because we love playing RPGs with fun loving players! That doesn't me that we won't be grateful for tips ;) . Proceeds go towards buying more games to run for our players. If this sounds good, join our Discord where you'll get first shot to sign up for our free Friday night games or maybe you'll want to join one of our free Saturday campaigns when there's an opening.

Creating your character
We'll make characters in session 1. Paranoia Perfect Edition has a mini-game for character creation where players start backstabbing (or maybe it's frontstabbing) each other from the get go :). We'll be using character sheets built into the Foundry VTT system.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
To join the game(s) you signed up for, follow these 3 simple steps: Step 1: Join our Discord Server (GMBro's): https://discord.gg/thAVXJSBSB Step 2: Create a free account on The Forge here (this is the hosting service I use for Foundry games. Once you create your account and use the Foundry VTT link below, you'll be able to join games directly from the Forge in the future): https://forge-vtt.com/ Step 3: When it's time to play, use the Foundry VTT link for the games (No password needed): https://forge-vtt.com/invite/drjohnpingo/9e392910-70ca-4dcb-8b13-e21bd0574751 WEBCAMS: We encourage players to use a webcam but it is optional. I find that a webcam, and seeing each other's faces, can make games more fun, makes it easier for me to see if people are having fun or not and make it less likely that we'll accidently be talking over each other.
What GMBros brings to the table
I have a Foundry VTT account with hosting on the Forge. I also have a Discord Server (GM John's Infinite Gaming Worlds). Players only have to join my Discord server and click on the Foundry link when its provided. I'll walk players through how to use Foundry VTT as we play. I have PDFs of all applicable game books.

How GMBros creates a safe table
**We run lots of different systems and find the best way to learn the rules of an RPG is to play the RPG. This means that we’re often learning the rules with the players. Please be patient with us and please don’t hesitate to speak up if we’re messing up a rule. We want to get it right. **We want everyone to have fun! Our GMing tends to lean into laughs and some silliness. **We do use some occasional cuss words for comedic or dramatic effect (the S-word and F-word) but try not to overuse them and ask the same of our players. **We're not comfortable with overt sexual game content, real world politics or real world religion and stay away from these topics and ask our players to do the same.
