UPDATED 2.0!!!
Hi, people. I'm recruting players for my next campaign. I'm a experienced player and DM for over 10 years now, and pretty familiar about FG II.
First of all I must explain that the campaign is already running, we got 4 players and i would like to keep it this way. Larger parties work fine on real tabletop but, by my experience, do not work so good on FG. As I am with a good availability, I decided to open a second campaign, that will be played on Tuesdays.
The Campaign:
At first, I'm thinking about a second FR campaign, because most of the new players applied thinking about joining that which is already on. However, I would like to call a vote here, because I also have some other campaigns in mind and ask that you consider playing another systems/settings.
CHOSEN OPTION:
Option 1: Forgotten Realms campaign (d20)
The good thing about this campaign is that most of players already know deeply about FR setting. IMHO it is the best setting of D&D. For this option I will accept all Core and Supplemental books and all Forgotten Realms books, with the following exceptions:
- Evil alignment will not be allowed, and all classes related to or that have Evil as requisite.
- Psionics will not be allowed
- Classes and races from other settings will not be allowed. (Dragonlance, Eberron, etc.)
- Tome of Magic, Magic of Incarnum, and all books that add a lot of game machanics/rules will not be allowed, (for I have not the time to learn all this new stuff), the only exception for this is the Book of Nine Swords. That book IS ALLOWED, for I am pretty familiar with it already.
Character creation: PCs start at 2nd lvl, and for generating stats must choose one of two methods:
Roll: Roll 4d6, drop the lowest and reroll 1s. Stats are chosen independently of the roll order. If the stats are lower than those that would be generated in a 25 point buy method, then all stats are rerolled. All rolls must be witnessed by the GM.
Point Buy: 28 point buy method. Minimum stat: 8
Starting Gold: That of a 1st lvl character of your class.
The Forgotten Realms campaign will be a mix of 50% combat and 50% roleplaying.
Option 2: Call of Cthulhu campaign (d20 modern)
I have the custom ruleset for d20 modern, and the Nocturnum pre-made adventure, which is IMHO one of the best I have seen about the Mythos.
Characters will start at 4th lvl, and will ude the 32 point buy method for generating stats.
The Call of Cthulhu campaign will be mostly roleplaying (80%)
Option 3: Legend of the Five Rings (L5R/Alderac system)
IMHO The best setting and RPG system ever created. Based on feudal Japan, but with a lot more of fantasy background. Journey to the land of Rokugan and play with a Samurai, sworn to give his life for the sake of your lord; a Shugenja, master of the mystic arts and comander of the elements; a Ronin, a bushi (fighter) with no allegiance; a Courtier, skilled at the social arts, who manipulates the future of the Empire using only subtle conversations; or even a Ninja, the worker in the night, assassin and executor of dark and misterious plans. Thats all a small hint of what the setting offers.
The Legend of the Five Rings campaign will be 40% combat and 60% roleplaying.
IMPORTANT: Whichever its the chosen one, the game session will take place on TUESDAYS, at 7 PM EST (GMT -5).
Given the 3 options, I would like that the players who want to join, post your reply here, saying: which one is your choice and if you would apply for the others in the possibility that your choice is not the winning one.
