Quote from: Dumarest;962585Trying to convince people to try Flashing Blades isn't easy as everyone seems more interested in fantasy.

I feel ya, brother.

Quote from: Dumarest;962585Also trying to decide what game would work with Dawn Patrol for a World War I flying aces game.

Boot Hill, GangBusters and Mercenaries, Spies, and Private Eyes all come to mind.

Cretins.

Quote from: Nihilistic Mind;962833Damn, son! Is that a game every other day? Awesome!

I think I managed a game a day one week.

This week I ran/played/will run

Saturday - 5e online
Sunday - 5e tabletop
Monday - no 4e game, (a) it was cancelled & (b) I had thought I had a dinner date, which also got cancelled.
Tuesday - Classic D&D Hollow World
Wednesday - 5e online
Thursday - I'm running 4e today
Friday - I'm running Classic D&D

After that I'm running 5e online Saturday & 5e tabletop Sunday, expect to play 4e Monday, GM Classic Tuesday, GM 5e Wednesday, GM 4e Thursday (unless the dinner date reschedules and I'm feeling generous...)
Then I'm on vacation.

(It probably helps I don't watch TV).

My main campaign at the moment is Hackmaster 5E in the Kingdoms of Kalamar setting. The group is edging towards 10th level after nearly two years of play, and are likely to be moving on from Frandor's Keep in the near future, on the trail of a treasure map acquired by one of the PCs.

I'm also running some Blades in the Dark on alternate weekends for three players from the main Hackmaster group. We managed three sessions, but there has been a bit of a hiatus since then due to scheduling issues.

My next game was going to be Mythras, then I shifted my interest to Godbound, but now it looks like it might be Rolemaster. That won't be for another year or more, though.

Quote from: under_score;963039I'm running a weekly DCC game on Roll20.  Homebrew setting based on lots of Irish mythology.

Prepping for a Castles & Crusades game.  I gave it a previous try, but abandoned it pretty quickly, and declared the Codex of Aihrde the most boring thing I've ever read.  Lately I've been rereading the Umbrage Saga though and compiling notes on all 6 modules, thinking it'd be a fantastic sandbox campaign to run.  Maybe I can work in a biweekly game of it soon.


I'm also running a monthly DCC game, stringing together published modules, at a KC gameshop.  Once you're settled in the area, let me know if you're looking for a group.

Thanks for the invite!

Quote from: Black Vulmea;963096I feel ya, brother.

Well, Dawn Patrol is shelved for the nonce. I need to do more reading than Sagittarius Rising before I'd feel competent enough to run more than a few games in that setting. But mainly because between a guy I've known and played with off and on for about 30 years, a guy I met via a bulletin board at a game store a few years back, a girl he works with whose pants he's trying to get into and who wants to try roleplaying , and a couple of interested parties located via Meetup, Flashing Blades may yet be pulled off. So I'm rereading The Three Musketeers, digging through France in the Age of Louis XIII and Richelieu (Victor-L. Tapié), and for the first time will read Twenty Years After, The Vicomte de Bragelonne, Louise de La Valliere, and The Man in the Iron Mask, so at least I think I will be able to establish the right sort of feel even if historical accuracy is somewhat off. Also I need to make some notes on the rules and run some practice fights.

I envy you your plentiful gaming opportunities - but not as much as I envy you the energy to actually make use of all of them. :eek:

If you don't mind games designed in the current century, there is my old In Harm's Way: Aces In Spades game. some weird people liked it.

Sigh...

You should do an In Harm's Way and Starcluster Bundles of Holding.

Well some of those games are just 2-3 hours text chat online, Tuesday is just an hour or so solo tabletop game with my son. The Thursday Friday & Sunday games are full tabletop games of 3 or 4 hours though.

My Monday dinner date just got rescheduled to this Monday, so I just let my Monday GM know I can't play (again). Mia better not cancel yet again or I'll have to start giving D&D priority though...

Quote from: CRKrueger;963247You should do an In Harm's Way and Starcluster Bundles of Holding.

Hello, Mr. Krueger!

I am not equipped to sell bundles of holding. Some of my games have been in bundles of holding before, but that's not up to me. Thank you for suggesting it though!

DM:
AD&D 1st, Greyhawk, Irongate Campaign
RIFTS Two-Headed-Giant campaign

Player:
AD&D 1st, Forgotten Realms
RIFTS Two-Headed-Giant Campaign
Mechwarrior 3009 campaign

GM'ing: Shadow of the Demon Lord campaign, characters are up to 3rd level now and we're going to shoot for 10th! Playing about once every 3 weeks.

GM'ing On Hold: Runequest 6th/Mythras doing the Book of Quests, Warhammer FRP 1st-ED end of the world with zombies, Call of Cthulhu 5.6-ED classic adventures like The Haunting. These we haven't picked up for >6 months.

GM'ing Prep: The Dark Eye 5th-ED, Savage Worlds Lankhmar

Playing: Basic D&D (game on hold right now), The Esoterrorists (game on hold)

Basically life gets in the way of our more frequent gaming, what with family drama, jobs, and my cancer surgery, but I'm hopeful we'll be able to play more as the year goes on.

GM: Homebrew Superheroic Fantasy in Hero System

Playing: Nothing, but have upcoming The Fantasy Trip.

Also starting a Advanced Fighting Fantasy game for my nephews when they visit this summer.

I am playing in a glacially slow paced Crypts & Things PbP game.

DMing Castle Falkenstein. Currently stealling a plot from an old Call of Cthulhu adventure...

Bouncing between video game design and tabletop campaign planning like a maniac. Really doing my head in.

D&D 5e stole my PnP soul when it was in playtesting. Quickly decided it was now my favorite system. But I still have yet to actually play with it. Proves hard to get these things together in a way that'll work for group roleplay dynamics when I only have two friends and am married to one.

Also have put a lot of time into sketching out Demon: The Descent and Numenera campaigns. Have a narrative for the latter that really tickles my fancy, but I still have to get over how distractingly gamey I think cyphers are. How is everything single-use? How does that happen! I understand the mechanical reason, it's beautiful and I agree with it wholeheartedly, but from an in-universe standpoint how the fuck...
