31 Day Character Challenge 2022: Tiny Spies

- Can I make 31 characters-one for each day in December? I'm gonna give it a try! Not only that, I'll make a video for each one and give each game an "unreview."
The rules are:
1) I have to like it,
2) I have to have bought it, and
3) I must do my best to use E-Prime, a linguistic tool that forbids me from using the verb "to be."
Can I make it? Let's find out!

One of my favorite james Bond theories is that he's the distraction and there are always 2 or 3 other 00's running around in the background doing the actual spy work and making sure the mission succeeds.
I'm partial to this theory. He's one of the 'blunt instruments' designed to distract folks while the other spies do their work. "Do you get the girl?" "No, I get to go home, paint landscapes, and not worry about armed thugs spraying bullets into my Murphy bed, possibly harming my cat."
Same here.
I love that theory and the one where James Bond is just a code name. Several people have had it.
"On Her Majesty's Secret Service" is nearly perfect, except for a giant black hole in the center of it named George Lazenby. If any other of the Bond actors was in it, it would be as revered as "Goldfinger" or "Casino Royale."
Another great video. There was a female 00 in Thunderball. She was at the table with the other 00's but never shown. You can find picture of the actors from the film and you can see her.
Fab & Interesting. 😃Likewise, I'd love a series about 00s.
I think it would be cool if each 00 is a specialist. 7 doesn’t know that his specialty is distraction. 007 is there to accumulate as much heat as possible so the others go unnoticed.
Tim was a great bond
I haven't gotten to play tiny d6 yet but I am a fan. As to Bonds, I love Dalton as Bond. My favorite movie is On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Lazenby was solid as Bond but Diana Rigg & Telly Savalas just make that movie for me. The music is great too. Granted it was made in the 60s and whew boy does it show.
I remember a reference to 009 in The World Is Not Enough, that was the one that got me thinking about the other 00 agents....
Love the Tiny D6 line, I learned about them from watching your Tiny Taverns video. Some other great games in the same space are EZD6 and Tricube Tales. Tricube Tales has some of the greatest micro-settings (2 pages), that I have ever come across.
If you read the books there is more then 9
You think 007, 00ate, 009?
Does Tiny Spies work for le Carré 'Smiley' type spies, or is it mainly the Bond style of story it supports and rewards?
BTW - Same. Martini is unpleasant. Waste of alcohol! lol
If you want something closer to the "Smiley" type spies, I highly suggest Cold Shadows by the same company: Gallant Knight Games. www.gallantknightgames.com/cold-shadows/
@@JohnWickPresents Ooh, just looked it up and the blurb says:
"Deliberately engineered to emulate quiet, dramatic stories, where conflict is handled with words rather than violence, [🤩👍] Cold Shadows focuses on the consequences of espionage…"
Fantastic!
Thanks
