Mystara - A new campaign using classic BECMI modules beginning with B1 - In Search of the Unknown

Game System: OSE/BECMI
Looking for: 6 players
Day of Week: Wednesdays
Time: 1300 EDT/1800 BST/1900 CEST/0400 AEST
Session Length: 4 hours
Licence: Ultimate - Players need demo only
Voice: Discord - DM's server. Invite will be provided
Sound Effects: Syrinscape through Discord bot in voice channel
Other Info: The BECMI system, which is the extension of the old Red Box Basic D&D from the 1980s, will be tough, with character death likely to be common in the early days, but there are some classic old modules that deserve to be revisited, I think. To deal with the increased difficulty, I intend running things slightly differently. I will start with all the level 1 - 3 B modules, with the intention being for the players to get multiple characters to level 4. If you die, your replacement character can join the party next time it returns to town. If you survive but don't like your character or feel that the party needs better balance, you can park your existing character and start the next adventure with a new character.
After the B modules are done, we move onto the X modules (level 4+) and you can select from any of your characters you got to level 4.

Thanks for your interest. I expect the campaign will on beyond August but we can look for a replacement when you need to leave us. It will be useful to have you around if we hit any problems with the ruleset. I'll let you know once we have a full quota of players.

There's still one space left for this as I've been unable to contact one person who expressed an interest.

There are now two places left for this.
