I am curious how many people would want to play in some Old school D&D or AD&D adventures that have been converted for Pathfinder. These games would be like 4 hours long, and some of them may run over into two or three sessions. The idea is more of a pickup style game. Short notice jump in and play type of thing. Not Sure what days they are going to be. Mon-Sat After 7PM EST most of the time, and might be 2 or more times a week. I am in the planning stages at this point and checking for interest. Seems to me like there ought to be like 50 people who could be around on any given day of the week to play. And could jump in once in awhile.

25 Point Buy (only one stat at 8). If any
2 Traits.
Hit Points Max 1st Level + Avg. (1/2+1) after.
Free Trained Skills (Profession (pick one...), Knowledge (Local) 1 Rank/level each.
Starting Gold 3000 lvl 3, 10,500, lvl 5, 23,500 lvl 7.
Max item value 2500 3rd lvl, 4500,5th lvl, 8500 7th lvl.
If you need help with your characters then find me on Skype(madmanfg2) and please tell me who you are when you send a contact request.

I'm interested, though, as fair warning, this is my first time trying out Fantasy Grounds. I have played, and GMed, quite a few RPG's (Pathfinder included) before so at least I won't be learning the ropes of two things at once.

With someone at the wheel that knows the stuff, FG is not that hard to pick up.
First Game is going to be next week, not sure of the day yet.

Will post when I have more Info for you all.
Just a side note: Should anyone decide to make characters (1@3rd, 5th, 7th) will put you ahead of the game.

Going to try for Friday this week, March 9 @ 7:45-8 PM EST.

3rd level Characters, so please try to have one at least on paper so it can be entered quickly.

First come first serve as far as open slots, will allow up to 6 players. I think two spots are filled, four more players may join. We will be using Teamspeak 3 for voice chat, please download and install this before the game. Connection info to follow.

Hope to meet some new people.

If you are doing any AD&D adventures converted into Pathfinder adventures, I would love for you to share the results. I'm currently undergoing the huge process of converting the Monstrous Arcana Evil Tide trilogy for Pathfinder. I remember that was the best adventure I ever had, and I want to share it with my group.

Thanks!

Also, I would join, but I run my game on friday :(

Once again, still looking to play on Fantasy Grounds, any day except Friday! Old veteran here!

Could do it Thursday?
Friday was just to give people a couple of days. I'm good with it either way.

People, tell me what you think.

Awesome. I just signed up. I'm excited to start building. If you need any SPECIFIC character you should tell me. I have never played a cleric before, which might be fun!

I did not get as much prep done as I would have liked to! I can still run the game, or we can do it next week. I'm ok with running it on the fly!

Thoughts?

I'm ready to do it tonight honestly. I can wait as well though.

All I need to do is download teamspeak, which shouldn't be a problem.

Zenny
March 8th, 2012, 15:52
That's a DM decision. I'm totally ok with waiting for next week if need be.

Ended up late from work, and not sure anyone else is still around. So game is rescheduled for next week Thursday the 15th. Unless someone does not show next week the game is full. But you are more than welcome to spectate, or get in on the next one.

Sounds like a plan. I am also in MST, down in El Paso, TX. So I'm typically open anytime after 530 our time. I'd like to learn some more about character creation, gameplay, etc... I'm kinda trolling forums and reading as much as i can. Got any other places i can learn at? :)

Thanks!
