Hi everyone. I'm an old school gamer that has recently been trying to get back into roleplaying. I've recently purchased FGII and would like to shake the rust off by running a few loosely connected adventures (ala sandbox type game).
I'm probably more up to speed running a D20 type game and will keep it to the 3.5 and D20Modern rulesets (for now).
I'm not big on the current trend of high fantasy; I prefer a human-centric type game. Or to put it another way, there shouldn't be 4 or 5 different races in a party.
I'm pretty easy going on the rules and will welcome players to make suggestions, however, when we agree to the rules, then we stick with them unless there is an agreement that something isn't right.
I like to roleplay and believe you need to roll dice to resolve conflicts. That doesn't mean that the bard needs to sign or be able to write poetry on the fly, but I do expect that the cowardly thief will not become brave or the miserly knight doesn't all of a sudden become generous.
Here is a list of somethings I've been playing around with, but please post and let me know what you'd would like to play:
A Pendragon-esque setting
A Warhammer Fantasy type setting
A Rome fantasy setting
A Modern shadow/conspiracy/Dark*Matter-esque setting
A Traveller mercenary setting
A Traveller merchant setting
A WWII Hellboy-esque setting
A Samauri setting
A Constantine setting (though I'm not really knowledgeable about Catholicism, so that might be a stretch0
Eventually I'd like to make a Spycraft ruleset and run a traditional Spycraft game and a game modelled off the show Burn Notice.
This would probably start in July and would probably be bi-weekly at start (I go through my annual audit during the summer) and then move to a weekly if a group formed out of this experiment.
Regards,
John
