About the adventure
Three millennia into the future, the "Die Hard" mythos has become the cornerstone of interstellar theology. In this high-octane, comedic Traveller one-shot, your characters find themselves at Grokatomi Plaza for the ultimate holiday ritual: a televised death-match. This isn't your standard trade-route simulation. This is Murder Hobos: Die Harder. We are mashing up the grim-dark monastic preservation of A Canticle for Leibowitz, with the absolute chaos of a battle royale. Grab your shoes, (or don't), and join us this New Year's Day.

What Greg brings to the table
• Competitive Play: A "death-match" style game where players compete to be the last one standing. • Thematic Comedy: We treat 20th-century action tropes as ancient, misunderstood holy relics. • Fast-Paced Action: High lethality, creative use of environments, and plenty of "monkey-in-the-wrench" moments.

How Greg creates a safe table
Ultimately, this is cartoonish violence using a top down view VTT webpage. No blood or gore. Everything like that is theater of the mind.
