Welcoming all new an old to FG. A new campaign setting is in town. Ive been working on this idea for a couple of months and finally was able to put it down on paper. Mostly. I wanted to post this two weeks before the first start of the campaign so people can get a feel for the setting and the environment.

Wiki
https://ironstone.wikidot.com

Calendar
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/calendar/index.xcp?id=281

Most of what I have left to do is create the maps and a little history on the city and how it was created. Rules are needing a little bit more work also but I have most of what I want down so far. Over the next couple of weeks I will be changing the wikisite off and on so check it often.

This is an arena style combat and tournament gaming system. Later on there will be a campaign mode that I will implement. But what I want now is for people to get a feel of what the city is and what it's potential can be. So running a combat arena option on Sunday and also an OpenWorld (check wiki for details) on Saturday will open up this world to you. :)

Thanks again for looking, if your interested, sign up in the calender and start making a 1st level character. I'll update the wiki on how to create a character with the rule set. OpenWorld will open next Sunday night (off schedule), so people can come and explore the city and what it has to offer, pure role playing, non-combat.

To register for open slots next month. I won't open that up until the end of the month. So if you want to play, still sign up in the calender area and then we will discuss the open slots.

If you have any question PM or, email me at [email protected]

Well it doesn't look like that many people are interested in an "open arena battle" type of champaign. Which is fine :). I am still going to hold on to the arena style game if anyone is interested, for later.

With that said I am pleased to inform everyone that Ironstone Champaign will be running quests now. Not arena style ones but actual quests and story lines. Up until people maybe get interested in playing my arena style game. :D

I will be running a game next Sunday the 18th.

You can sign up there if you are interested at all.

If I get a really good turn out, I might be able to do a weekday one for the European sector. So please feel free to PM me or email me at the address above, with any ideas, questions or comments. I am willing to listen to all.

Thanks Again,
cpbs

Ironstone Quest Update

Sunday, May 18, 6:00pm CST/CDT (-5 GMT)

I will be running the quest for about 2-3 hours depending on how fast the game runs. The interesting thing about this campaign setting is that you basically choose what quest that you want to take.

A little back ground information.

The High Wizards of Ironstone, the Royal Senate, and the People's Senate host quest for people to take. An example could be to clean a section of the sewers from dire rates or to protect caravans from being attacked on their way to Ironstone. There will be many quests to choose from and this will add to the feel that are you helping the champaign grow.

Other thing you can do later on.

At higher levels and a lot more gold. Character will be able to create their own royal house, invest in trade, run a business, run for political office. Mostly anything you can think of is possible inside the Ironstone champaign setting.

The Arena

The arena battling is another aspect to the game I want to implement. But so far no one has seemed that interested in it. I am still planning and working out more details but I want this to be one of the main focuses of Ironstone.

Over All Campaign

There is an over all story line to this campaign that I will slowly be writing on the https://ironstone.wikidot.com/ website. As quests are completed, the story will slowly start to appear. The plots will thicken and form into one major plot line. One that will require all of Ironstone to help to save the city.

This is a shout out to all FGers to come and visit this new campaign. Its going to be fun, interesting, exciting, and revolutionary.

Give it a chance and give me some feedback on what you think.

Thanks,
cpbs

Still looking for two more players for this Sunday, CST/CDT 6:00pm for about 3 hours. It will be a simple quest, mostly role playing, easy battle(non maps) and good experience. Link is at top to the calender page with all the information to create a character and if you need anymore help just email or PM me.

Thanks

We had a great first game this last Sunday but we are still looking for more people too play. I am aware that Sundays are pretty full for most people so I am looking to start a game on Thursday at 6:00pm CST/CDT, to around 9:00pm CST/CDT.

If you are interested in playing this coming Thursday please feel free to join in at the calender link listed above.

Thanks,
