I ran a Paranoia hack for a group of friends just before Christmas. I ran it essentially seat-of-the-pants, relying on the various cross-purposes that I had set up in the Mandatory Bonus Duty and Secret Society sheets to cause chaos. Which ensued in the form of teleporting mutants, robotic rhino rampages, multi-directional treason triels, and Commie mutant sabotuers – all in all, a highly successful game of Paranoia. The Mandatory Dance Parties were also a highlight, helping to keep energy levels high throughout the game!
No real rules beyond 2d6+stat and some vague hit-point esque mechanics; given that it’s treasonous to know the rules anyway, I figured that I didn’t need any more than that. The Computer is your Friend, citizens!
