Fantomex, that sounds interesting, any room for a guy one night during DH? Just to see how it's done??

That's the basis of it still (technically fifth edition?). Streamlined though, and a bit more intuitive for on the spot decisions for the DM. And a good Paranoia DM should always allow the Troubleshooters to also succeed an action so magnificently they could have only done it by means of treason...
Player: I shoot that guy 100 yards away!
DM: Roll it
Player: *Rolls a 1* I succeed a lot
DM: The guys head explodes, the bolt ricocheting off his vaporizing skull to detonate the grenades on his belt. The blast ruptures the oxygen lines on the wall and a fireball is hurled through the piping and hallway at a few hundred miles per hour. The doors on either side of the hall automatically shut, trapping the fire. It is now several hundred degrees and heating, plus your oxygen levels are all dropping. Violence checks to make any action, and you're all maimed. Also, your clothes burst into flames.
I love Paranoia.
Borderline alcoholic and happy about it.
Don't get your religion mixed with my Constitution. The mixture curdles.
I believe the GM must allow the players to succeed at any action in such an extreme way that they end up killing themselves. Regardless of rolls
Also, your description left out a comment about how they'll get in trouble for damaging the experimental equipment they're field-testing by exposing it to fire
I won't have to. Their clones are going to have to find a way to get into a hermetically sealed corridor that's several hundred degrees to retrieve those items. I'd say job well done by the GM, that's at LEAST 36 clones of hilarity's worth of action. Especially when their secret societies are telling them to destroy a bot that's inside the fire while all the camera equipment is still operating.
Yeah. Paranoia is the greatest.

STOP GOING ON ABOUT FREAKIN' PARANOIA?!?!
Gah!?!

@TDA, indeed, I dare say it's a few weeks til we next get in on it again, got a long WHW weekend next week and I'm frantically trying to build a whole army (literally, most of 2000pts of Iron Hands, unassembled and unsprayed)
If you're up for seeing how it normally gets done, I can always get on in the evening any day of the week?
ARMIES: IRON HANDS, NIGHT LORDS, OGRE KINGDOMS
It's okay, I'll wait until you're in session.
No need to make special exceptions for me.
Also, 2k of Iron Hands to build? Sounds impressive.
