Dragonlance 3.5/Pathfinder

[DragonBelow]

Hello,

I want to start a Dragonlance game set in the Age of Mortals, after the war of souls, I have 2 campaigns in mind, both of which are racially focused.

1) A minotaur campaign during the Minotaur Wars era, (other races will be allowed as well).
2) A draconian campaign in Teyr *.

Either campaign would be heroic in nature, but not restricted to good characters, so you are "allowed" (not encouraged) to make evil characters if you so choose, however regardless of the alignment you have to be a team player, antagonizing the party in a way that disrupts the game is not fun.

You must be familiar with the 3.5 or Pathfinder rules, you must be familiar with the Dragonlance setting.

Game would be every fortnight, most likely on evenings on a weekday (PST)


* Dragons of Krynn required (https://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product_info.php?products_id=29540&it=1)

hm sounds very interesting.

[Ravenmantle]

I'm certainly interested. When do you expect the game to kick off? I have a wee one on the way and it might be a few weeks before I'll be able to commit to a game such as this one.

[Andrepartthree]

I'm interested too :) any idea what day/time? I'm in the eastern time zone (florida usa) - I really enjoy the role playing/acting out your character's personality part of the game but of course combat is a lot of fun too ;) .. I'm familiar with D&D 3.5 and very familiar with the dragonlance setting though pathfinder would be new to me ...

[DragonBelow]

I don't have a set date to begin, I would like find 4 players first.

Tuesday, Thursday or Friday, from 7:30pm to 10:30pm or so. (PST)

Pathfinder is very similar to 3.5, in fact they are compatible (in a flexible definition of the word compatible).

Hi, how's it going?

Dragonlance?? Draconians?? Woo hoo!

I am available to play Friday and Saturday nights. I am in EST but I am willing to start playing late. I love roleplaying my character's characteristics as well as sticking sharp objects into living things.

I am very familiar with the Heroes of the Lance series, starting with the first three books, then the twins' books, Richard Knaak's books about Huma and his minotaur friend and with 3.5 D&D.

Now here is some flavour text.

I'm going to have to opt out for right now :( owing to having already found a game on Weds .... however would like to give a shout out to strangeblades :) ... had the pleasure of gaming with him once, he's really great at the role playing/acting out his character's personality end of things, his flavor text is awesome! :)

Hope you guys find more players sounds like a great campaign ! :) Sillly as this sounds ... a lot of players on here who post that they're free and looking for a campaign wait for the DM to come to them instead of looking over the posts a DM puts up asking for players - personally I think it's because someone new to FG can be a bit intimidated to the point where they're perhaps a bit shy about responding to a DM post looking for players - or the FG newcomer sees so many threads they're overwhelmed and aren't sure how to handle it ... I personally wouldn't see any harm in going through the threads and PMing players directly who are advertising they're available, have done so in the past and had players respond (that's how I recruited strangeblades for example ;) )

[Violet]

I'd be rather interested in playing as well, I'm not familiar with Dragonlance, but I can definitely research it once I get home tonight.

Hi,

How do I install Pathfinder... thing?

Do I download the PDF from Pathf. website and then drop it into an FG folder?

Do I have to buy the Pathfinder thing?

If so where can it be found and how much is it?

SB

[DragonBelow]

I replied to your private message, check there, also putting your email online like this is not a good idea if you want to keep spam away from your inbox

a PDF is a document, it's not meant to be installed in FG, You need to install a PDF Reader (https://get.adobe.com/reader) program in order to be able to open and read it.

I'd be rather interested in playing as well, I'm not familiar with Dragonlance, but I can definitely research it once I get home tonight.

Hi Violet, If you have any questions ask away

[DragonBelow]

You can now find the calendar page for this game in my signature

[Ravenmantle]

I just accepted the invite in the calendar page. :)

Awsesome, welcome

[DragonBelow]

I would like to have ideally 4 players for this game, who else wants in?

[Trajan]

I'm willing to play, if the game is still on.

[Livi]

I am interested in playing. what were the game days again?

[DragonBelow]

The game is still on, though I want at least 3 players, but prefer 4.

How's your Dragonlance? :)


I am interested in playing. what were the game days again?

The game would be on a weekday night, from 7:30pm to 10:30pm PST

[Trajan]

I read the chronicles trilogy and the test of the twins a number of years ago. I also read some of the prequel novels. I also read the elven nations trilogy. I have played 3.5 for a number of years.

[DragonBelow]

Great, how is your schedule?

[Trajan]

Well...your previous post said tuesday, thursday, or friday. I can make any of those days, my preference would be tuesday first, thurday second, and friday third.

[DragonBelow]

OK, all the players invited, please check the announcement on the campaign page (see my signature) please reply with your game preference (Minotaurs or Draconians)

[Blahness98]

Man I'd be so in on this campaign, I've always like the dragonlance setting and have a few characters built for the setting. I just wish I knew what my work schedule would be like one week to the next...

[Capadocious]

weekday evenings are mostly good by me, already posted u some concepts. minotaur renegade wizard, Sorceror/dragondisciple or a cleric of kiri-jolith depending on party need.

Capadocious, keep in mind it has not been decided which game we will play yet.

Are you still accepting Players?
What night have you decided on?
Admittedly my DL is a little rusty but I used to play DL quite frequently years ago in 2D. Thanks in advance!
I am also quite familiar with the new Pathfinder Beta rules.

1) Yes, since none of the players have really confirmed.
2) Either Tuesday or Friday

I will send you an invite

Tuesday 7:30 PST would be awesome.
And I'd throw in a vote for Draconians.

[sciencenerd]

Do you accept players new to pen and paper games in general? I don't mind reading up on the rules/lore.

I am sorry, but I need a player to know the setting or the rules, or preferably both.

[ramirez777]

If you're still looking for players please let me know. For some reason calander links are not currently working, as it appears they have been disabled. I'm familiar with the Dragonlance setting, as well as pathfinder.

[DragonBelow]

sent you an invite

[DragonBelow]

I will post game server information here shortly before the appointed time!

[Mychael]

Is there a Pathfinder rules set or are we just using the stock 3.5 with mods?

[Mychael]

So are we doing this tonight?

[Trajan]

I think making characters was the plan.

[ramirez777]

I think the game start time is probably 8:30pm pst. I thought it was central time, but no big deal to me. I like the rest of you havn't heard any thing, so it's just an assumption. Hope to see you all there when the GM gets the info posted.

[Mychael]

Was supposed to be 7:30 PST.

[DragonBelow]

Am not home yet (using my phone) will be online in 20 mins or so. Meanwhile, check one of my previous posts in this thread for a link to the pathfinder rules.

[Mychael]

Ok, good to know. I'm pretty sure I know what I'm looking at playing but want to run one thing past you first.

I'm looking at an Aurak Sorcerer.

[DragonBelow]

Ok, I am online, server alias is: good fang zany hook

[ramirez777]

Not sure if the server is just currently down, but I am unable to connect to: good fang zany hook. Please keep me updated, thanks.

[Trajan]

Keep trying, it took me a few times

[ramirez777]

Keep trying, it took me a few times

Ask Dragonbelow if he's set a player limit, or somthing else I may be unaware of. I'm currently having no luck connecting, and it doesn't have anything to do with the connection on my end. It could be Fantasy Grounds hosting of his server, but I'm not honestly sure.

[Mychael]

Odd... I was able to hop right in.

[DragonBelow]

I am behind a couple of firewalls, but the fact that mychael and trajan are in should be indication that you should be able to login, I didn't set any limits

[ramirez777]

It's letting me connect to other servers on my list, just for some reason it's not letting me connect to the one Dragon's hosting. I've entered the correct string of words, so I'm honestly not sure where the problem could be.

[Mychael]

Hope you don't mind DB but I threw up ads for players on a couple of other gaming sites. Hopefully we can get 1 or 2 more from that and then we'll be good to play.

[DragonBelow]

3 players is the minimum for me, so we're good to go as is.

Thanks to all that showed up last night, our actual first game session will be on the 26th

[Mychael]

Ok right on. Well, we'll see if anyone else is interested and if not run it from here.

[Barker]

If you're still looking for group members, I'd like to join. I found this on Pen&Paper posted by Mychael. I'm not very familiar with the DragonLance setting, but I'm very familiar with the 3.5 ruleset.

[Mychael]

We're still on for tonight right?

[DragonBelow]

Yes, we're on!, I will post here when the server is up!

[ramirez777]

It's 40 mins after start time, are we still playing?

[Mychael]

Actually start time is in 15 minutes.

[Trajan]

Game start is 7:30pm PST, which is in 16 mins from now.

Too slow....

[ramirez777]

Ok, for some reason when he sent out a confirmation for coming it showed 8:30 p.m cst as the start time. My apologies, see you all when he posts the server coming online.

[DragonBelow]

Server is up

[DragonBelow]

I am going on a trip on Thursday, and I still have a million things to do, I am sorry but I will have to cancel tonights session, I will see you in two weeks.

Maybe we can schedule an extra session to compensate after I return.
