TheRPGSite

This will get lost in the monster thread where it started, and I think as a fun exercise that this is worthy of its own thread. :)

Post the game you would be hosting at this awsome event!  I'll add them to this post.

Don't forget to bring gifts for our gracious host too.

Who else is in, and what game are you running? :)

If I somehow found my way to Barcelona, spending a week in a function hall with a bunch of guys from the internet would probably not be on my itinerary.  ;)

Dude, I'm sure Ramon can find us a park with some chicks or something. :D

I think I will be visiting Barcelona somewhere in September, courtesy of ESPON (http://www.espon.eu/main/), and barring an economic apocalypse (I mean, a worse one. Ha. Ha. That's the joke.). I always travel with my dice. Always.

I'll run an Amber game for you provided we quit at 11pm and head out to a salsa club

So what are you running at the summit? :)

I would need a wingman because my spanish is terrible, but count me in for running Traveller, Mekton, or a Teenagers From Outer Space drinking game.

I will chop your hands off, give you the Drummer's Measels and bad German puns, via the wonders of WFRP.

Hehehe... we'd be a squadron of foreigners needed wingmen, LOL!

Well if this happens, then clearly I'll be running Synnibarr...











... what?  :)

The great thing about this is that it shows just how many different games are favorites on the forum. As it is you have all the major types covered.:)

I would love to attend something like this but pretty much stuck in Boston for now. However were I to attend I would run Gothic Earth purely out of nostalgia.

This isn't a bad idea though. Trying to do something like this periodically on a regional basis might be doable. I bet if we actually graphed where our members are and where they mght be going in the forseable future we could come up with some ideal locations. For instance if fifty of us lived in California, an LA game could work.

Quote from: DestroyYouAlot;539635Well if this happens, then clearly I'll be running Synnibarr...

Which edition?

Quote from: BedrockBrendan;539637I would love to attend something like this but pretty much stuck in Boston for now. However were I to attend I would run Gothic Earth purely out of nostalgia.

Is Gothic Earth a RPG, or a setting?  I am unfamiliar with it.

On a similar theme who is going to GenCon this year.

I am hoping to make it but plannign on moving with work to Singapore and I don't have the dates for that yet.

Quote from: Drohem;539641Is Gothic Earth a RPG, or a setting?  I am unfamiliar with it.

Gothic Earth is an old ravenloft variant released in the mid 90s. Basically they took the ravenloft concept (a very loose interpretation of it) and ported it into victorian era earth. It is kind of a new game, even though it uses 2e, because it had to rework many of the mechanics for the time period. One thing that stood out (but keep in mind I haven't run it in years so going by memory) is the gun rules were actually kind of nice.

Quote from: Drohem;539639Which edition?

Y'know?  I'm interested to see where Raven's going with this new version, and there are some things I'd probably see as improvement...  but it's actually given me a real hankering to just run v2 (the 1993 edition).  The new one is a little more pointbuy and a little less "random rolls on top of random rolls", and I actually think tons of random rolls suits the genre.  (Errr, "genre".)  IDK, supposedly we're getting a new update of the playtest rules on Thursday with a lot of changes, we'll see what's been added/corrected.

Edit:  I should be clear - this is totally hypothetical, there's no way in hell I'm finding my way across the pond, this year (I'm fresh out of school and trying like hell just a find a damn job, right now).

Ah, that's why.  My old AD&D GM ran the original Ravenloft when it came out and it left a bad taste in my mouth so I soured on Ravenloft stuff and avoided it.  Fuck the Fog! :)

Of course, dude, it's all in good fun in this thread.  So 2nd edition it is! :)

Quote from: Drohem;539650Of course, dude, it's all in good fun in this thread.  So 2nd edition it is! :)

On the Synnibarr note, I suspect many of the changes in the combat system (although not so much the character generation) will find their way back to my v2 game - and changing "10ths" to "protection factors" (which, instead of factoring from 1/10th damage to 1/100th damage and so on, go from 1/2 damage, to 1/3 damage, etc.) could be a game-changer (potentially in a good way - although some of the crazy damage numbers might need scaling down to match).

Quote from: Drohem;539648Ah, that's why.  My old AD&D GM ran the original Ravenloft when it came out and it left a bad taste in my mouth so I soured on Ravenloft stuff and avoided it.  Fuck the Fog! :)

And to be honest, even when it first came out, it was a tough sell. But I found a few years later when I pulled it out again (probably around 99 or 00) it worked pretty well for victorian horror. A bit clunky though given they built it on 2e.

Hey, I made an assumption about what you would run when I made the initial post.  Sorry about that, but was I right?  Or would you run something else? :)

The old Masque of the Red Death? That'd be sweet. :)

May God have mercy on our souls. :D

Quote from: Benoist;539654The old Masque of the Red Death? That'd be sweet. :)

Yeah, is still have the rule book from the boxed set (but lost all the contents and my guide to transylvania gothic earth gazeteer.

Yeah, I'm sure if I gave it a fair shake again that I would probably get some enjoyment out of it.  It's just that I have a real hard time swallowing forced boxed text, and being railroading by a freight train into a setting or module; which happened often in the TSR modules.

The trick to running ravenloft is to ignore the modules material and the 2e railroading (which the ravenloft line suffered from pretty heavily). If you work around that stuff the modules are still useable (feast of goblyns and castles forlorn had plenty of good stuff to use). The biggest problem with ravenloft is they encouraged gms to do a lot of bad things in their advice sections: use the mist as a plot sledgehammer ("you WILL go to the haunted house and LIKE it), story heavy adventures (The Created Module is a classic example), etc. It worked if you let the players explore and take initiative (and the powers checks system really went well with this style of play). The original setting was actually small enough that I could literally run a whole campaign without planning a single thing in advance if I really wanted to (because i was able to familiarize myself with all the key people and places).

Any Red Steel love? I remember looking over it briefly in a used book store many years ago, but didn't bite via a purchase. I wasn't even aware that it existed until that experience, as I hadn't seen it advertised....nor was anyone talking about it. Was it really that unpopular ? Or was I just a member of an isolationist group, and wasn't aware of it?

Oh, hell yeah!  I love that setting!  The audio CD had some really cool skits on it that gave you a feel for the campaign. :)

Totally this.  Like most 2e stuff: ignore the DM advice, ignore (or fix) the modules, and make it sing.

Also, don't run it using d20 rules unless you want a VERY ANNOYED rogue player.  ;)

Totally.

The actual scenario where the PCs would basically come to the setting being sucked by the mist and *explore* from there and get involved wherever/however they want would be (and was) the way I would go about it. Alternately, running a sort of "Ravenloft by Night" would be awesome (i.e. building a domain or city as a sandbox, City State of the Invincible Overlord, Ptolus style, and the PCs just go about their business in there) - that was the approach of S&S's Rookhausen live Ravenloft game online. It was great.

Quote from: Drohem;539653Hey, I made an assumption about what you would run when I made the initial post.  Sorry about that, but was I right?  Or would you run something else? :)

No, you guessed right, I was just remarking about the wide spread of games for anybody who accuses this site of being pre 4e Dnd only.

Quote from: Benoist;539662Totally.

That can all work great. Just stripping out the railroading works well ingeneral with those settings. Most of the time, players sucked into ravenloft will focus on escape as a primary goal, so there is a built in motiviation that drives the majority of campaigns. All kinds of interesting stuff crops up in their effort to escape or as they resolve themselves to their new fate. A lot of the later material tried to make the setting a more complete setting with pcs as natives, so that has all kinds of possibilities too (personally I prefer the classic, sucked into ravenloft and the pcs are set loose).

Cities are a good point. It is very easy to focus a campaign on one city or domain (which can be very maneagable). That is great for political intrigue and investigations.

Awesome, our baby is due around the 20th :D

Quote from: jibbajibba;539617I'll run an Amber game for you provided we quit at 11pm and head out to a salsa club

That can be easily arranged.

I'd run something. Let's see:

Hearts & Souls: Falling Stars (Live Playtest of random pc generation)
High Valor: Coils of Madness

I'd likely be up for running MSH or something similar as well..

since i don't see CoC on that list, i'll "volunteer" to run some, but modern day.  someone else can do the 20s session :)

What is on the date on this? Next summer I'm scheduled to visit Israel. I could do the layove three days in Spain as easily as a Paris or London stay. I'd want to visit some castles and stuff as well. Ancient Judea, Medieval Hotspots in the Med and ancient Rome are already featured heavily in the vacation plans so far.

There's no date, it's more of a what-if kinda thing. :)

BFRPG, set in 2e Ravenloft.

I'm assuming this means "the convention will take place in Barcelona, which in turn will be sucked into the mists of Ravenloft".  :D

Uninfortunately it's just a fun thought exercise currently but Brendan made a good suggestion that could be realistic.  Regional meetups like a RPGSITE miniconvention done on a sort of semiannual basis. The question is though what would you run GameDaddy? If it actually happened.

Given the likely atmosphere of the Barcelona Mythical Meetup, I'd have to run something crazy.

Like at the end of the week, I'll run some weird cosmic dimension-hopping thing (FASERIP maybe) where everyone can play a PC they played earlier in the week, preferably one that died.

Why has nobody mentioned PARANOIA?  What's FASERIP?

How about a nice light game of Gangbusters? See if your mobsters can become the top dogs in the city.

Quote from: Marleycat;539816Why has nobody mentioned PARANOIA?  What's FASERIP?

Marvel Superheroes Role-Playing game by TSR (stats spell out "FASERIP" and it used dice and a universal table.)

A Planescape game, with Fantasy Craft (for that new-school skill kick)

Quote from: Caesar Slaad;539822A Planescape game, with Fantasy Craft (for that new-school skill kick)

Oh my, you sir may be my Frog Prince! I love, iove, love Fantasy Craft ask Benoist.:p

No wonder I never heard of it. Superhero games aren't my thing but I sure would give it a go with a good GM.:)

*Could I be Rogue, Storm or best of all Jane?

Wingmen are for chumps.  I'll just do the same thing we do in America when confronted with a foreign language:  talk louder.  :)
And put me down for some Star Frontiers!

Quote from: Marleycat;539837Well then count me in. I could play one of those three right?

If I ran Marvel, sure. If I ran H&S it be better to roll your own or choose another pregen from its setting. (Albeit if I manage it roll your own hero will be so simple, and fast, its easier to do so than decide on a pregen..:D)

that's brilliant!  especially excellent since i just finished watching the captain america movie (the most recent one, that is)

Drohem, keep up Mr. Beeber said he'd run classic CoC.

I am hoping to make it but plannign on moving with work to Singapore and I don't have the dates for that yet.

Never been able to go Gen Con though it's closer now physically, but finances still taunt me. I may be able to swing it in 2013/14 though. I'm building up vacation hours as we speak.:)

Squirrels are good, they like nuts as much as me. Or maybe it's I'm a nut and squirrels like me? I'm so confused. It's the dreaded Almond Joy paradox!

The question is though what would you run GameDaddy? If it actually happened.

Mmmm... I'm working on several old school adventures atm for the summer convention season, a Judges Guild Wilderlands adventure set in Valon/The Great Glacier, that that I wrote in 2004 but never used. A Barsoomian 0D&D adventure featuring a group of U.S. Cavalry that follows John Carter to Mars, and of course Novus Roma, the ancients campaign where the Romans settled a tropical island on distant mythical fantasy world with all the traditional fantasy races and a few new races and monsters thrown in for good measure.

After watching the new Underworld movie, I'd be hip to running a Spycraft Vampires/Lycan adventure set in Chicago, and I'd also be up for running another New Battlestar Galactica adventure featuring the crew of the Mercury class Battlestar Atlantica in the days immediately following the Cylon holocaust.

Drohem, I have my preferences but it's your thread so it's your pick.:)

Some very cool stuff GD. I would love to try the Battlestar Galactica scenerio just to see if it works as an rpg.

I will run Mazes & Minotaurs, Carcosa and then Poison'd just to fuck with everybody.

Quote from: Marleycat;539823Oh my, you sir may be my Frog Prince! I love, iove, love Fantasy Craft ask Benoist.:p

Yeah, before you showed up, I was the sole FC pimper, and was pretty well known for it (that and Spycraft, but some folks like GameDaddy were into SC as well). So it's nice to have a comrade-in-arms. :cool:

Are you on the Crafty forums? I'm Psion over there.

I don't think I'd run anything, with so many people I admire and respect and ask for gaming advice running all sorts of cool stuff.

I'd apply for Benoist's AD&D 1e, Jeff's Traveller, OHT's WFRP 1e, Brendan's Masque of Red Death (see below) and Marleycat's Mage: the Awakening.

If I somehow found the time I might run Call of Cthulhu, or better still, Rifts.

Ah, Masque of Red Death. Had a blast playing this. I played a gallant British hussar. We repelled an attack by hostile Bedouins, digged up some cursed Egyptian shit and ended up indebted to a crazy old Haitian witch and running errands for her around the globe. Ah, the memories :D

Would the BSG game be powered by Spycraft as well, or the BSG game by MWP?

Quote from: Spinachcat;539871I will run Mazes & Minotaurs, Carcosa and then Poison'd just to fuck with everybody.

Poison'd would be an informal game after the Summit is officially over and we've all been drinking and having a good time.  Draw lots for Cabin Boy. LOL!

(I'll probably just use Marleycat as my handle easier to keep track of).:)

OK, the OP has been updated!

It appears that theRPGSite Barcelona Summit will have to be expanded to a 2-3 day event now, and will require multiple tables.

Ramon, I hope that you have enough room! :D

Otherwise, we may have to find a hall that will host the event.

I have contacts with several nice and affordable hotels. That wouldn't be a problem :)

I'd probably use S&W: White Box or Greyharp's Single Volume OD&D with some house rules, but definitely OD&D as the baseline.

But what to run? Hmm... perhaps locking everyone in a room for 24h and running 3:16 until nobody can take it any more. Hatred for Home? Yeah, we can do that.

I just registered I am known as "Harlequin" and I use Dodger's smiley ball avatar. I had to find a use for it and it should fit in nicely at the Crafty Forums.

In Nomine SJG, all Kyriotate PCs! We'll roleplay in all three realms of reality, in multiple vessels, and various locations on earth -- all simultaneously! Someone's head will explode, guaranteed!

OP updated. :)

No Rolemaster?  I'll have to reintroduce everyone to the magic of critical hit tables.  So Rolemaster or Arduin.  :D

Quote from: CRKrueger;540275No Rolemaster?  I'll have to reintroduce everyone to the magic of critical hit tables.  So Rolemaster or Arduin.  :D

Right on, some Rolemaster action.  Would the Arduin be the original booklets via D&D, or the actual Arduin game that was later developed?

You're right. Now i feel ashamed. I've got about 200 pages of RM stuff ready to go.

RM is awesome. We need more RM. :D

I love the critical tables and how GISH concepts are handled.:)

So, who's paying for my plane ticket + accommodations and/or license to use the site's name?

Touche! Maybe we could have a kickstarter for that.:)

It'll be "The Pundit Fund".

It would be interesting to me if you ran one of the games you wrote. Or maybe playtest Arrows of Indra.:D

Wait a minute... has anyone mentioned Aquelarre? If we go, we have to honor our host country and run Aquelarre. In fact, if I was coordinating a copy of the new edition would be part of the gift bags. But that might too ambitious and also cut into the beer budget.

Nothing should cut into the beer budget.

Although, if Imperator is willing, I can send him instructions on how to brew his own beer or wine and we could have bottles of Barcelona Summit Special aged and ready for us when we arrive!

In all seriousness, my first choice would be for him to run Houses of the Blooded (Dynastic intrigue in a made-up prehistoric culture; sorta like Pendragon, ish, but set in a cross between Japan, Atlantis and Rome). But that's another campaign game, rather than a session game.

The beer budget is "yes, please", and it is balanced in the books by "oh god, my head".

Dude, sangria!

I'd run Shadowrun, if anyone was interested.

I should note that this is would be the second Barcelona Summit, given that I met there with Imperator and Breogan last year. :D

I am! *raises hand*

There is proof on the RPG Site facebook group! :D

True that! And actually, Aquelarre is one of my favourite games and the new screen goes with a three-part adventure I wrote 10 years ago and that shames me to no end! :D Shame on us all for forgetting it.

Word. Wine is pretty good around here, too, anyway.

In all seriousness: my wife would love to do that. Bring it on.

Quote from: JongWK;540773Dude, sangria!

Only in summer, and only as a refreshment. It is not a serious drink :D

I raise my hand. It's been decades since I played Shadowrun with this rockstar-turned detective that was the grandson of Freddy Mercury because I am a fanboy without shame.

That is also true.

I was actually joking about the beer brewing, but one of my gaming guys does home brewing of beer (which is pretty good). Give me a day or so and I will get the information on how to brew from him and start a thread about it. OK?

I should probably amend that to "I would run anything, but it'd be better for all concerned if I actually ran a game I have experience running".
