Time to check in on what everyone is running, or planning to run. I like doing these every now and again, just see what everyone is up to.

If you can, list:

-Current or next campaign planned
-System
-Setting
-Expected/current duration of campaign
-Type: (G+, face-to-face, email. PbP, etc.)

-Bonus: What most interests or excites me about this upcoming campaign is....

Currently running the same D6 (Mini Six, actually) game I've been running for two years (pbp), although I'm down to one player.  Setting is the Rust Moon of Castia mini-setting from the book (sort of Willow with the serial numbers files off).  We should be in the final arc right now, but who knows how long that will last considering it's pbp.

Next I'd like to try running Beyond the Wall (OSR/D&Dish game) again.  Ran a brief game a while back that died out, in no small part due to not enough preparation on my part.  I'll go in better prepared this time.

I'd also like to finally try and run Barbarians of Lemuria (or Legends of Steel).

Still running Labyrinth Lord using my Wampus Country setting - weekly games on G+ and occasional in-person sessions in what is essentially an open table.  We've had something like sixty different players drop by in the last year, over seventy in the G+ community; started the campaign in probably August of 2011.  Some players join regularly, others occasionally, and we have a handful who only come around for the PbP bits.

It's the only game I'll be running for some time, I think.

Running Against the Slavers series using Next.

I am currently between campaigns having finished Horror on the Orient Express for Call of Cthulhu and Sentinel/Gauntlet for Dungeon World.  I am taking a six month break from running a regular campaign.

On saying that, I have plans for 3 short run games (2 or sessions) in that time that are all face to face:

Iron Ridge for Tenra Bansho Zero
The Ghost Ship v the Pope for Warbirds
Escape from Mos Shuuta for Edge of the Empire

Leaving aside Warbirds, where the title only sells the awesome, I am excited about Tenra Bansho Zero as the mechanics are simply sublime and I am hoping to do a riff of Pacific Rim and Kurosawa's Ran.

-Hopefully Edge of the Empire this weekend
-Edge of the Empire Beginners game.
-Star Wars
-One-shot
-Face to Face

I hope to get my 4E D&D group (who is on a 40k kick right now) to try the new Star Wars Rpg.

I think EotE would be a good choice to transition fans of D&D, Pathfinder and the 40K games to. The system is a little saner too, despite the funky dice

They really like playing with minis, so though I got them on board for this weekend(baring some schedule problems), actually running a campaign is another matter.  They are gearing up for the Space Marine army release next month, so even if they like the EotE, it might end up being an once a month thing.

We plan to use the WotC Star Wars minis, poster maps and tiles when we play EotE. True, the rules don't deal with spatial movement, but they are pretty robust for relative movement.

So I think minis may work great for EotE, and actually be better in some ways than RCR or Saga in that regard.

Not running anything, currently. Not sure what/when I'll run something next.

Currently playing in a face-to-face Gurps 4e Transhuman Space campaign, which will probably wrap up in mid-September. After that, I'll be playing in a Gurps 4e Banestorm campaign that'll run from between September and January, or February.

I'm not really a fan of Gurps, but I put up with it. Once I get past chargen (with extensive help from my fellow, Gurps-enthusiast, players), it's more palatable.

-Partially lifted and modified "Grandfather's Rain"
-Other Dust
-California in the year 2860
-ongoing
-face to face

I've started running a Stars Without Number campaign using what will ultimately be a very deviant version of the Mass Effect setting.

I'll be running it with my regular group, which in September will be starting it's 15th year of regular old-fashioned, kitchen table gaming. It will also be the first one without one of our founding members, who moved so that his wife can start her new career as a country school teacher. We were all both proud and sad.

The bonus has been that after recent Exalted and D&D 3.5 campaigns, people have been shocked at the speed of the combat round, something I plan to exploit.

I'm currently running an Atlantis: the Second Age game for some friends using the playtest from the Kickstarter, since the final book won't be out for backers until september or so. I'm planning to change to Lords of Gossamer & Shadow once I got my copy, since sword & sorcery doesn't seem to appeal to my friends very much (plus I really want to try that game).

Other than that, I run short games for another group once in a while. Maybe we'll play a Tenra Bansho Zero one-shot in two weeks.


PS: I really miss playing once per week like I did last year.

Rotating through multiple campaigns:

Savage Midnight - Midnight using Savage Worlds. We just finished Crown of Shadow.

Two Deadlands Reloaded campaigns, one that will eventually run through The Flood Plot Point and one that will run through the Last Sons plot point, I think.

The Savage World of Solomon Kane plot point campaign.

We are planning to give Dresden Files a go, since I just finished the 10th book, and I'm thinking of resuming my kid's Spider-Man campaign, but using Fate Accelerated instead of Marvel SAGA.

I am down to run a Star Wars (D6 1st ed) later this month. I've planned it as a one shot but I guess it could potentially grow into a mini-campaign.

Things are kind of slow since my ICONS campaign ended in June. The summer holidays making it hard to get the whole gang together, and rightly so!
