Are we going to game tonight? I'm down for some Dark Sun or oneshot if we lack the players. Let me know what the plan is.

The campaign only works if you have a pregnant halfling in your party

Merry Christmas to the Northern Southern Californians.....

Anyway, themes sound awesome. History theme would be perfect for the return of Tales of the Slayer historical Buffy games. How about it, Mcellis?

Dark Sun on tonight. Andy's at 6pm.

I like your revisions. They have a nice ring to them. Even if you could only do three sessions I'm sure Cthulhu would step up for five session to quench my unholy thirst for Dark Sun.

by cczernia

I enjoyed the game. I say we go forth with Mord's game and do a minimum of 8 sessions.

by cczernia

I'd be interested in this.

I wanted to bring up Gamer's Torch again, not for discussion of business methods or the ins and outs of game shop mgmt, but to highlight the 35% discount on special orders (Nov 20 post) and the note of alarm in the Dec 9 post. Thanks. I've certainly been taking advantage of the special order having...

Very cool. What do you plan on running?

by cczernia

Just to let everyone know Oscar (To Peace) will be joining us on Monday.

Mord, can you email him your address.

I really enjoyed Spirit of the Season the time I played it. I also think Doctor Who Christmas Special would be fun. The Mouse Guard themed game would be cool except I'm not a fan of Mouse Guard. Post Apoc Christmas would be fun, too. You could get some great imagery (barf forth Christmas apocalypta)...

How does Dec 10th sound for the next game?

by cczernia

I have not played it. So if someone is jonesing to run it, I'm in. As for me running it. Yeah no dice. Me and new games don't mix well lately. My attempt at Nox was noxious and my Serenity one shot at Hyphen Con was not that great at 3am. So I'm kinda having an aversion to it. I enjoyed Nox and the...

sorry again for not making it to the first sesh. i guess i shoulda explained when i was on the online last night: southwest had "cheap" tickets for only certain days, so i'm gonna visit the folks out in texas. My brother is doing the same thing and visiting my parents next week. It is pro...

Out of curiosity where will we be starting? Are we a group already or meeting for the first time?

Dark Sun

Here is the new Dark Sun thread! Ohhh shiny. First game should be in two weeks. Next week we can talk characters, indie game madness and maybe some Dominion.

Final Session of Dresden tonight at 6pm!

Mord, where are we playing?

Man, that is one cool guy who is going to sell some gridwall.

by cczernia

[quote="devlin1"] Hrm. Yeah, I'd have to think about that. I'm not sure I can come up with universally applicable guidelines for Setpieces. Right now, obviously, the rules lean pretty heavily on the creativity of the players to fill in the gaps. I don't want to constrain overmuch, but I don't want ...

by cczernia

I think the most difficult part of the game for us was starting the first seen. None of us really knew what to do or how to start actually playing once all the setup was done. Like you have the denouement you might want to have a special opening scene that gets things starts. As for dicepools I thin...

Updated the wiki.

Feel free to update it. You'll need to create an account.

~~[quote="jimmy corrigan"]~~hey chris, could i take a look at your forgotten realms 4e player's guide?[/quote]

Unfortunately, it is at the library right now and it will be closed on Thursday. That does mean I'll be able to make it on time.

by cczernia

Also, that means we can do some Monday SW Saga at JCs. What do you say JC. I bet we can get some good trades going

by cczernia

~~[quote="dnd3eplayer"]~~I think i could do Thurs[/quote]

Next Thurs would work for me but I would be late. This weekend (Saturday night or Sunday afternoon) also works.

Gamma World - mood?

So, I there apparently was an issue during the Q&A on Gamma World about why the new edition is super silly and not serious like previous editions. But I always thought Gamma World was suppose to be a goofy game.

So, how do you guys view Gamma World? Is it post-apoc Gonzo or radioactively serious?

by cczernia

Ok, I updated the wiki but I'm pretty sure I messed some things up or left something out.

That's what I get for letting a player choose NPCs stats for me :mrgreen:

Awesome time. Looking forward to the next one. Perhaps with some Blue Rose.

And if at all possible, fill in the guest star phases for your characters, so you have have more aspects.[/quote]

~~[quote="jimmy corrigan"]~~flashbacks.[/quote]

Good call. PC initiated flashbacks that involve other players have worked well for me in a number of games.

[quote="jimmy corrigan"]i would say cczernia's mage game featuring teenaged pc's presented some great twists-- like the one hinted at in the third post, where my character ended up being a ghost (eat your heart out, bruce willis). in the same campaign there was an artifact that looped time, groundh...

[quote="Sadohara"] However, keeping players in the dark is hard (occasionally mean), quality revelations require more build up time than the average campaign allows before dying and moving on to something else, and some players actually get pissed if the revelation isn't well fore-shadowed.

by cczernia

[quote="devlin1"][i]Smallville[/i] does a good job of this, IMO. Your relationships with other PCs are created organically during chargen and rated in dice.
