If you found this page from Ross Winn's Close to the Edit column on RPG.net, welcome! This page chronicles my three year slog to finish a cyberpunk role-playing game. Ross is gently hassling me to finish it already. My personal home page can be found at http://adam.legendary.org.

Verge

Verge is a post-cyberpunk role-playing game with a conspiracy-story edge.

Players invent the setting during play by drawing a network of interconnected ideas, organizations, and people on a big piece of paper. Then they take the role of a character in that setting and struggle for control of the setting elements to accomplish their goals. To control a setting element, they mark it with dice rolled from a pool. The result looks something like RISK but with dice on a relationship map instead of armies on a geographical map. This process tends to create stories about the smashing together of greed and other human frailties, ideology, and technology.
