Playing in a SWADE campaign and D&D 4e campaign.

Running some The Black Hack 2e this week and my Stars Without Number campaign is ready for fill.

I actually like running Savage Worlds, but I'm trying to pick up some sandbox techniques from OSR games and then go back to Savage Worlds. That way I can see how the system effects those elements (that and these are some cool OSR games, so I'm coming up terms with liking two things at once). Currently reading Silent Legions, which is just fantastic.

Monday: CoC: Horror on the Orient Express (player)
Every other Friday: 5E custom campaign in Kingdom of Lothmar (DM) (unreleased product)
Every other Friday: 5E custom campaign in Kingdom of Lothmar (Player) (unreleased product)

The 5E game I am a player in, we just found out we've been sneaking our way into places we should not go and doing things we should not do to rescue the trapped elven matriarch. But, it turns out we were having a conversation (via a crystal ball) with someone in the past and in the present she is very dead. Like, we just found her bones rotting away in a jail cell in an abandoned tower.

We were like, oh man, that's twisted.

DM be like hahahahaha bitches.

Sadly no gaming this month so far, but I'm fiddling with the original Twilight:2000 modules (free city of Krakow and pirates of the Vistula specifically) to try and make them work with the upcoming Twilight:2013 campaign I'm hoping to start running regularly soon. Next month or year or something. Who knows.

Latest game was last weekend:

First session of 1e AD&D for nine players: all of them are my youngest daughters friends from high school. Five guys, four girls. It was quite a group (and there are two more players that couldn't make the session). None of them have played tabletop D&D, before. My daughter arranged the thing (which is why there were so many players -- I might've limited the group size a bit). They seemed to have a good time. Lots of cheering and such at appropriate moments. I guess they all had fun, because as soon as we wrapped up they were all looking at their phones to figure out when we could schedule the next session.

(I didn't have enough rulebooks for everyone, obviously, but I'd given them all links to the OSRIC PDF before the game, and the players don't really need books, anyway.)

Just played my first session of PF2e!
Once we had all established our Preferred Pronouns, things settled down fast...

Running:  Tomb of Annihilation for 5e d&d (almost done after 2 years of monthly play)
Playing: homebrew 5e d&d

Been running a non-Imperium Mongoose Traveller campaign for two years now.  What a fantastic game.  Wish I could be a player.

Currently playing

1.  5e in Kobold Press' Midgard Setting...Fun. but a pretty typical campaign.

2.  5e Dragon Heist...The DM is running it with all the "incluse-ivity" stuff still included and then he is building off of our antics in abusing the setting.  We are definitely into Paranoia levels of silliness but haven't yet reached Tales From The Floating Vagabond/Toon levels of insanity.  Needless to say if Mearls & Co ever read our campaign notes they would probably try to confiscate our books

Currently running --- although on temporary hiatus

1.  5e Primeval Thule (Heavily house-ruled)
2.  Top Secret
3.  The Dark Eye

Games to be run soon. (In no particular order)

1.  Star Wars (WEG d6)
2.  Low Fantasy Gaming
3.  Some sort of B/X -- BECMI -- ACKS game
4.  Lion & Dragon
5.  Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperboria

Running: Triumphant! (Long-term campaign)
About to start: Offworlders (much modified)

Playing: Where Eagles Dare (a friend's homebrew WW2 commandoes-style thing)
Also: Triumphant! (same setting as above, just alternating GMs)

On the list for the near future:

• AiME
• Crimson Blades
• Biggles RPG
• LoG&S

Quote from: trechriron;1108063I'm gearing up for a weekly SWADE game at my fave gaming club, Metro Seattle Gamers (in sunny Seattle, WA). Been making some good progress on the setting on World Anvil -> https://www.worldanvil.com/w/explorer-corps-trechriron
A lot of the prep has been formatting images, uploading and tagging with artist info (67 portraits thus far...). Deck plans for the ship should be done soon.

I got my SWADE box set here a week or so ago. Lots of goodies!

What about you folks? What is theRPGsite playing or running these days?

I have been playing in a Wednesday night online Glory Road Roleplay game with three other people sitting in one room in Connecticut. We won't play tonight because the GM has a novel to finish (writing, not reading) I'm a 30 years war Finnish cavalry trooper and we've been gated to a fantasy dimension.

I'm running a Thursday night online Glory Road Roleplay game with three sitting in one room in Connecticut (two of the same people) and another player and I sitting in from here. Tomorrow night, one of the characters stands trial for murder.

So my two regular long-term campaign groups have both gone to campaign board games at present:  one playing Gloomhaven, one playing Imperial Assault. I wonder if this is a thing with other people?

I still have a bunch of one-off and short-term games. I've got a twice-a-month story game meetup on Thursday nights - playing a variety of RPGs ranging from A Thousand and One Nights to Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I've also got an irregular 1-2 times a month group on Sundays that usually plays diceless and/or homebrew systems. And there's five local conventions a year - including Big Bad Con starting tomorrow. And a scattering of other gaming - like running D&D5 for my family on vacations and an irregular two-player Archipelago game.

So I'm not exactly starved for gaming, but for now no long-term campaigns.

Currently playing in a friend's AD&D campaign, the rules are a mix of 1e/2e + houserules.  Currently running a "Traveller-ish" Everywhen game for some friends online.  My weekly lunchtime group at work has been playing OD&D, but as I'm feeling a little burned out on dungeon-fantasy I'll be running Blades in the Dark for a while starting next week.

Not playing currently, but running a B/X D&D game based around the Keep On The Borderlands, and god-DAMN is it like slipping into a really comfortable pair of shoes again. The rules are nice and light but don't mind that I brought my 3-ton toolbox of game mods, I can make rulings off the cuff because the engine is really familiar and operates like a well-oiled machine.

I snagged the hit dice rolling method from Stars Without Number, grabbed the hit-die-healing from 5E, threw in some Shields Shall Be Splintered, mixed thoroughly and baked at 525 degrees for four hours every few weeks. My recipe for fun!

Playing in 1.5 games of 5e:
* a Pictish devotee of St. Ninian chasing bandits around Hexham Abbey (female Fighter 1; Northumbria, 10th century).
* a detached-duty scout from the 7th Arcane Legion investigating goblin horse-thieves and a modron infestation near Amphail (Ranger 2; Forgotten Realms).

The DM running at Forgotten Realms work manages to get the group together *just often enough* that I can't socially acceptably bring back the West Marches series I started last time he went on hiatus (Tomb of the Serpent Kings!).
My family is too busy for me to run home games (Princes of the Apocalypse started well), although some of that is because of the Northumbria game the 14-year-old is running "to study for his history exams".
I'm doing serious research for a bronze-age-Mesopotamia-styled game. Sadly, there's almost too much material on Mesopotamia, but I wasn't coming up with enough for pre-Muslim Silk Road.
