Gauging Interest in Revenge of the Giants (D&D 4E)...

[leozelig]

Greetings Gamers,

I have been considering DMing the published module Revenge of the Giants and am testing the waters for community interest. I am looking for 4-6 mature players. I have been DMing games on FG since the release of 4E and have been playing D&D for much longer. I am in my mid-30's and play for fun.

My availability is 8:30pm-11:30pm ET (GMT-5), preferably on Sundays. Other nights might be feasible, but this would be a weekly late night game. A solid grasp of 4E rules is necessary, but you don't have to be a rules expert. Players new to FG are welcome. The adventure should take an estimated 6 months to complete (levels 12-18).

Since this is a published module, I want to emphasize a few points about the game experience...

• The story arc is fairly linear.
  Players seeking an open-ended campaign built around their specific character motivations might find this game a poor fit.
  
• The plot hooks leave much to be desired.
  Consider it a viable reason for you to be involved in the adventure, nothing more. Those who maintain high standards for plot hooks might find this aspect of the game largely unsatisfying.
  
• The adventure is combat-heavy.
  But it does include some non-combat encounters and a structured plot. A basic character personality or motivation to add flavor is encouraged.

Reply to this thread if you are interested.

Cheers,
Z

I'd love to play. I think my schedule will work especially if it's a lat night game. I sometimes have to work til 9pm central time.

Todd,

If you can make it at the regular time most weeks, then I am alright with that. We can discuss which day and time works best for everyone before we start.

The game will probably not start for a couple weeks. I want to avoid the usual situation in which a new game fills quickly, and players who don't happen to be on the forums for a couple days can't get in. Always frustrating...

So far, things look good, but more are needed. I will post regularly with updates during the next several days...

I use Ventrilo for my games, so a mic is strongly recommended but not essential. You can still listen to the voice chat without a mic. I find that Ventrilo greatly improves the flow of combat.

I use miniatures tokens and have several portraits available if you need one. I have library modules with feats, powers, etc to facilitate character building. I do not use Hamachi. We will plan a test run sometime before the first game to download files and grab the maps.

I will use a website for announcements, adventure summary, and experience/treasure totals. I'll probably use obsidian portal or create a google group for this.

if u decide on another night other than Sundays i would be willing to play, my best nights r Saturdays and Mondays

[leozelig]

Ok, Raz...

I am fairly flexible with the game night. I can't do Friday or Saturday nights.

For any other potential players... Let me know if you are interested but not available on Sunday nights (and which nights you are available).

If you still got room I would be interested in playing.

[leozelig]

So far I have heard from 4-5 potential players, including mekage... some of those have expressed interest in other games as well, so we'll see.

If you are interested, post here.
