Though watching Timeless recently has inspired me to think about that sort of gameplay. A rogue Timelord or Time Agent going back in time and trying to undermine things, change history. PCs have to stop them.<br />In Dr Who, it's always been big events like that which seem immune to change - go back and kill Hitler and someone simply jumps in their place and history is fairly similar. <br />Time travel is always a bit flakey like that. Is Marty now in an alternate reality when he returns to the eighties? Timeless and BTTF have more in common than Dr Who's notions of timelines... <br />Maybe a look at the TimeWatch RPG is in order. I did get my Kickstarted copy but haven't had chance to have a read...David F.

It's one of those movies I know by heart, and wore out the video tape through watching and rewatching as a kid.<br /><br />Does the <i>Doctor Who</i> RPG cover the kind of instant timeline changes seen in the BTTF films in any mechanical sense?Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12816071659319450675noreply@blogger.com
