Complexity	Game Master	Game Type	Players
Moderate	Connell/Barosi	Hyper-FMAS (FMAS variant)	TBD
Description
D barely noticed the slowly developing pain in his neck as M seemed determined to hit every existing Arizona pothole in their black late model Ford. He had other, more pressing matters on his mind. M was not happy about their current mission; such routine investigations were beneath an elite team such as theirs. "Its just an unauthorized entry, probably some idiot Spugs who got lost in hyperspace. Don't they have local units who handle these things?" D grimaced, unhappy about being questioned, "I have a hunch" His response was cut short as the sky erupted into fire. Though miles away they, felt the impact of the explosion and if M weren't an expert driver he'd likely have run off the road. D noticed other dust trails racing towards the ball of fire. "Looks like we'll have competition M." "Now we're talkin'!" shouts M, as he floors it and begins to charge his weapon. Hyper FMAS is a variant of FMAS developed by Martin and Steve, who stole unabashedly from Inquisitor, ARES and other systems in an attempt to maintain the generic goodness of the FMA system yet incorporate the richness and individuality of character traits, feats and special abilities as well as localized wound effects and a slightly different morale system for those of us who value the details in small, intimate, more character-driven skirmish games.
