Euro evening Savage Worlds one shot

[VenomousFiligree]

Anyone interested in a euro evening one shot for Savage Worlds?

Phil

[ArthurLovat]

I'm interested!

I'm new to FG and I have never roleplayed in English, but I'd like to give it a try.

[middlemonster]

I would love to try SW whats the time and date?

[longarms]

if its this saturday or sunday, I'm interested. My wife might be interested too, I'll check with her.

[VenomousFiligree]

The time will be euro evenings, exact time to be agreed, but starting somewhere around 1900 (GMT+1). Date also to be agreed.

What would people prefer? Modern, Sci-Fi, Horror, Fantasy, Action orientated, RP orientated .... ?

[Spyke]

I'd like to try out SW as well. I'm not available this weekend, but one evening next week would be good.

Any genre, though pulp action seems to suit SW particularly well. I'm happy to go with the GM's pick!

Cheers,
Spyke

[ArthurLovat]

Action-oriented pulp is my favorite.
Unfortunately I have to work late next week (->9pm GMT+1).

These are the evenings I'm available:
saturday, 4th
sunday, 5th
sunday, 12th
monday, 13th
tuesday, 14th
wednesday, 15th

[VenomousFiligree]

If you want pulp, I've got the first Daring Tales of Adventure (https://www.tripleacegames.com/DaringTales.php) all ready in FG? However it would probably span 2 sessions rather than one.

Or maybe something in Egypt?

[Spyke]

I've got no problem with two sessions other than the usual one where we all try to figure out corresponding availability... Sounds like twice the fast, furious fun... I can make most week nights next week, and Mon 13th or Tue 14th (or possibly both).

Thanks for setting this up, Phil.

[Badgers]

Hi, count me in, the 13th and 14th sound good. 1900 is a little tight for me, but I'll try to make it in on time. Daring Tales sounds good.

[sondermann]

I'm also interested. Never played SW before, but i'll really want to try the system.

[VenomousFiligree]

So how about 13 Oct, with 14 Oct if it's going to take 2 sessions?

If there's more interest in the states I can plan another over the weekend at a later date.

[ArthurLovat]

13th and 14th is fine with me.
If it's okay with you, count me in! ^_^

[sondermann]

same here.

[VenomousFiligree]

*looks at the locations of sondermann and ArthurLovat and hopes Nazi pulp adventures are going to go down well* :)

If folks don't mind I'm going to add this adventure as an event at Savage Worlds Online (https://www.savageworldsonline.net/) and I would ask you to register for it there (https://www.savageworldsonline.net/index.php?view=details&id=62%3Ato-end-all-wars&option=com_eventlist&Itemid=78).

Phil

[ArthurLovat]

What could be better than kicking some Nazi-butt? :D
I registered

[Spyke]

Registered! Sucked away from GURPS you mind-altering fiend you! ;)

Spyke

[Badgers]

Registered!

[VenomousFiligree]

Registered! Sucked away from GURPS you mind-altering fiend you! ;)

Spyke

You'll just have to get me back with a GURPS one shot! ;) :)


If folks are wanting some background reading I can recommend the following:

Daring Tales of Adventure Pulp Rules (https://www.tripleacegames.com/Downloads/DaringTales/TAG31000A_PULP_RULES.pdf)

Pre gen characters - I'll add more (up to 6 players) as required.

Brent Hardcastle (https://www.tripleacegames.com/Downloads/DaringTales/DToA_Brent%20Hardcastle.pdf)

Doctor Nathaniel "Doc" Davenport (https://www.tripleacegames.com/Downloads/DaringTales/DToA_Doctor%20Nathaniel%20Doc%20Davenport.pdf)

Jimmy Patterson (https://www.tripleacegames.com/Downloads/DaringTales/DToA_Jimmy%20Patterson.pdf)

Lady Amelia "Duchess" Valentine (https://www.tripleacegames.com/Downloads/DaringTales/DToA_Lady%20Amelia%20Duchess%20Valentine.pdf)

[ArthurLovat]

So, how do we do this? Do call dibs on the character we prefer? In that case I'd like to play Brent or Lady Amelia! ^_^

[VenomousFiligree]

Do call dibs on the character we prefer?
Sounds good to me! :)

[ArthurLovat]

Then I want to play the Duchess! ^_^
Are the characters in the module or should we prepare them beforehands?

[VenomousFiligree]

The PCs will be in the module. I'll try to have the server up at some point before 13th so that everyone can download the ruleset.

Phil

[ArthurLovat]

Great! I'm really looking forward to it! ^_^

[VenomousFiligree]

Ideally we need one more to sign up, as we only have 3 players at the moment. Sooo, anyone up for it?

[sondermann]

just registered over at Savage Worlds Online. I call dibs on Doc Davenport.

[VenomousFiligree]

Cool :)

Characters taken so far:

ArthurLovat - Lady Amelia "Duchess" Valentine
sondermann - Doctor Nathaniel "Doc" Davenport

Brent Hardcastle
Jimmy Patterson

[Spyke]

I'll take Brent, then. Looking forward to it.

Spyke

[VenomousFiligree]

So with the current registered players we have:

ArthurLovat - Lady Amelia "Duchess" Valentine
sondermann - Doctor Nathaniel "Doc" Davenport
Spyke - Brent Hardcastle
Badgers - Jimmy Patterson

Do we want to use VoIP?

Phil

[ArthurLovat]

I want to give chat-based playing a try, plus I don't have a microphone atm.
I will buy one though.

[Spyke]

I'm happy with chat-based, maybe with Phil giving GM directions over VoIP.

Spyke

[VenomousFiligree]

Great! I'm really looking forward to it! ^_^

Looking forward to it.
Forgot to mention, so am I !

It looks like full VoIP is out this time. I'm happy to either play chat only or DM transmit and Player receive. :)

[sondermann]

Although I prefer voicechat, i think I'm OK with only the GM speaking.

[longarms]

Just to follow up, I won't be able to attend because I am on vacation at the game time ;) Thanks for posting and inviting everyone!

[VenomousFiligree]

Just to follow up, I won't be able to attend because I am on vacation at the game time ;) Thanks for posting and inviting everyone!
If there's enough interest, I'll run another one in US friendly times.


The server is now up so you can download the ruleset, I'll pm the server alias.

Phil

[VenomousFiligree]

Server down at the moment while I figure out what's blocking things :(

[VenomousFiligree]

Back up, canyouseeme.org says its good to go! :)

[ArthurLovat]

Everything seems to work. Can't wait till monday! I'm thrilled! ^_^

[Spyke]

Ruleset downloaded, thanks. See you Monday!

Spyke

[VenomousFiligree]

Server down, I'll put it back up tomorrow.

Phil

[VenomousFiligree]

Server back up

[VenomousFiligree]

Start time will be 1900 British Summer Time (GMT +1), 2000 Central Europe Summer Time (GMT +2)

No VoIP, as problems with PC at the moment.

:)
Phil

edit:

Server is up, new alias however (details PMed), I wont be around until just before 1900

[scytale2]

If you need an extra, then send me a message...

[Spyke]

It was a great session! Can't wait for the next installment! :)

Thanks Phil,

Spyke

[VenomousFiligree]

If you need an extra, then send me a message...

scytale: sorry I only had 4 pregens ready so a last minute addition wasn't possible, your more than welcome to attend the second session though.

And on to the next session, I'm off on a three week holiday on Friday so won't be able to run again until w/c 10 November.

I really wish I could run it sooner, as I haven't had as much fun and laughter with FG ever! :D

Phil

[ArthurLovat]

When you come back, I'll have some free time on my hands (hollidays, yay!), so just tell me when you want to play!^^

The group-play was a lot of fun and I hope we can get everyone together again. Add a fifth player to the mix = double the fun! :D

[Spyke]

At the moment, I should be fine in the couple of weeks following 10 November.

Have a good holiday, Phil.

Spyke

[Badgers]

Yes that was a great session, looking forward to the next one!

[sondermann]

When do we continue? And where do I have to check if it does continue?

[VenomousFiligree]

Continues week commencing Monday 10th November, exact date to be agreed. Here's as good a place as any! :)

Phil

[Spyke]

I'll be around, but scheduling needs to be done with due care as also playing in Lars' Zombie Run and running up to GURPS Online Day (https://www.spyke.me/god-home.htm). My other half is being very considerate so far... but I'd better not push it! ;)

Spyke

[Badgers]

I'm good for a day 10-15 Nov.

[ArthurLovat]

Oh yes! Pulp fun! ^_^

I'm available on Nov. 10th and 12th and also on saturday 15th.
The week thereafter (17th till 21st) everyday is fine except tuesday 18th (on which I will run "Zombie Run").

[VenomousFiligree]

I can't do 11th, 15th or 17th.

Phil

[Badgers]

So does Wed 12th or Sunday 16th work for everyone?

[Spyke]

I can do Wed 12th, but not Sunday 16th. I'm having to get up at 6am at the moment though, so couldn't play too late.

Spyke

[ArthurLovat]

I'm fine with wednesday, even if that means less ****tails on tuesday...^_^

[sondermann]

wednesday is fine with me

[VenomousFiligree]

Looks like Wednesday it is then! :)

[ArthurLovat]

Do we have a time already?
I'm up to pretty much anything.

[VenomousFiligree]

1900 Gmt / 2000 Gmt+1 ?

[ArthurLovat]

Fine with me!

[sondermann]

I'm there.

[VenomousFiligree]

Badgers has been caught up at work and won't be available untill at least 2000 GMT. So we can play at 1900 without him, delay untill 2000 or postpone?

Phil

[sondermann]

I'd wait for Badgers.

[ArthurLovat]

Yeah, lets wait for him.

Can you email the code again? I'm sure, whether the one in my history is correct.

[Spyke]

I can wait (literally got back in myself as well - so need to eat) but I've got a streaming cold and need to be up at 6am tomorrow, so can't play too late (stop by 2200?). Sorry :o

Spyke

[VenomousFiligree]

Not sure if we'll finish in 2 hours, however more than happy to have a third (and final? :) ) session.

[ArthurLovat]

Lets just see how far we get!^^

[VenomousFiligree]

I'll still monitor this thread, however, could all discussions now take place at the Euro Gamers group (https://www.fouruglymonsters.com/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=42&func=view&id=4261&catid=29) at Four Ugly Monsters.
