This is the sound-off thread for anyone interested in Amber Diceless, which was the creation of a long-time Palladium Books contributor, the late, great Erick Wujcik. Although it does not use the Palladium rules, its nature and theme are highly germaine to the Megaverse concept, and can be run seamlessly over the top of just about any TTRPG.

If you’ve played the game or are interested in learning about it, drop a simple post here.

It started as written, but diverged in many directions, including to a dimesion of my own creation. At one point, the group ended up on the Starship Enterprise (Next Gen version) which was unexpected, but fun.

Bullets intruding into a gun-free setting made this feel like a very "Amber" moment:
