Weird War I

[GunnarGreybeard]

Not seeing much comment for interest in Weird War I stuff and nothing in the store as far as the setting. I do see that Pinnacle offers a Weird War I Collectors Box Set (https://www.peginc.com/store/weird-war-i-collectors-box-set/) posted for sale on their website so there must be some interest, that or they are dumping all the excess stock in a bundle. :bandit:

Anyone know of anything in the works or any currently running games using Weird War I on FG?

I considered it last year then I thought someone was doing it, then they weren't, then I considered it again, then I got the entire C&C DLC line placed on my shoulders so...

I dunno? I would consider it again if I thought there was interest but it'll be a couple months at least until I have time to squeeze it into my queue.

I was looking at Thunderscape (both SW and PFRPG) too but I don't think the studio has signed onto FG.

I'm doing a Weird War One, one shot game... So i'm only adding the relevant stuff to our game... if it becomes an ongoing campaign, I wouldn't mind configuring the whole Players Guide and ect... but I am in no way affiliated with FG or SW... so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Talyn]

Well, I will consider WWI more seriously then, especially since I took The Goon off my queue and handed it to Wookie. But as I said, it'll be awhile before I'll be able to start on it.

With the tools now built into the SW ruleset and available addons, it probably wouldn't be that much trouble to build out a personal module and go with that, at least for the foreseeable future. Finding players on the other hand, might be a bit more elusive.

I have considered doing, I lover the Weird Wars setting ideas, just never got around to it.

Other than doing conversions for the store neither Talyn nor I are affiliated with FG/SW.

I guess I can flit around and do little things to this if I'm frustrated or feeling burned out on the other stuff until I get time to go full bore into WWI...

Nice!!

[Black Hammer]

That box set is tempting, but I don't need more RPG books I'll never use. Though FG conversions don't take up space on the shelf and are easy to get use out of...

So I am in on a WW1 kick, did this little thing ever happen (I am not seeing it in the store, so I presume no)?

I went searching for Weird War I DLC a year or so ago and couldn't find anything. There's nothing for Weird Wars Tour of Darkness either, other than some 3rd party tokens. I don't think it'd be big effort to make a custom module using Weird Wars II as a basis though. Some of the edges and hindrances are the same and for weapons it's easy to just make a copy of an existing, move it to your custom group and then rename it and reskin the stats as necessary. I did that for Tour of Darkness going in the opposite direction history-wise and a lot of the effort was just copying and pasting content from the Player's Guide. I wasn't aware of the Author extension when I created my mod. Having now used Author and gotten competent with it and with the soon to be released Builder, IMO it would be a manageable effort to create a Player's Reference with either tool.
