This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Let's break this thing in.

The Rat Who Would Be King

Classic D&D, and opened a brand-new C&C campaign a fortnight ago.

Also indulge in a lot of CoC, DC Heroes, and the odd Masque of the Red Death one-shots.
 

QueenD

I'm playing in a d20 Modern game set in 1879.  We're using Sidewinder: Recoiled as our main book, Grim Tales magic, and lots and lots of Psionics.  I'm playing a Battle Mind.  It rocks.

I run a 1920's game.  Jazz music, Hitler, and twisted psionic monsters make for wildly entertaining gameplay.
 

Elidia

I'm not currently playing anything, but I think I still have a standing invite back into an old group, who are playing 3.5 D&D.

I want to get back into it, but it always slips my mind to actually contact the DM and ask.
"suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness."

Wow.  That actually sounds like it could be cool.  I'd like to hear more about that if you have the time or inclination.

I've actually been playing more board games as of late, but I am about to start a Game of Thrones d20 campaign with some new folks and I would like to re-start my 3.5 Forgotten Realms campaign.

Elwood P. Dowd

I run a couple 3.0 Greyhawk games.
 

Dacke

I'm running a D&D Eberron game that's just hitting mid-levels (6-7). A couple of adventures ago, the party released a daelkyr that was trapped in a Khyber dragonshard, and I'm about to put them on the path to rediscovering the means of recapturing it.

I'm also playing in a second D&D campaign, where we are basically secret agents for a LE fascistic semi-theocracy (I'm not entirely sure - I don't think the Church runs things per se, but they are very powerful). My character is a rather broken halfling/wereboar (custom "lite" variant - I have more control, but I only have access to the hybrid form, and some abilities are reduced) fighter/rogue who also has the highest level in the party (since he's the only one who's been around since the start).

We also just finished a campaign in a rather heavily modified version of an old version of the Swedish RPG Mutant (for the Swedes here: the cyberpunk version from the late 80s).
 

Reefer Madness

im playing nothing right now, since i movied away from my gaming group they have changed games several times....now it seems at some point we're going to try to play shaodwrun and they are going to hook up teamspeak and a webcam so I can play.

Im slowly designing a All flesh must be eaten game and its taking a lot of work because i keep changing focus and game ideas...
Turning all of our children into hooligans and whores its Reefer Madness.

theblackknight13

Just starting playing in a new larp, giovanni inbreed freak who's pretending to be scared shitless to keep the other players off guard. Games based vaguely on cassablanca with the anarchs broken up into 5 packs pretty much running free riegn and the sabaat and camarilla both standing in their seperate corners glaring at each other plotting to get the city. That's every sunday.

Every monday playing a fanatical lasambra crusader in 832 iberia. Tuesday is 1930s requiem game(ventrue occult scam artist with a bad gambling problem) and thursdays alternates between starwars(hacker) and running my turn of the century(1906 currently) requiem game.

So I still have 3 nights that arn;t gaming.

Haven't played since I moved from Ohio, damnit. That's 2+ years now. Very frustrating, especially since my game of choice is 3.5/d20, and tons of stuff I'd like to use has been published since then.

4e definitely has an Old School feel. If you disagree, cool. I won\'t throw any hyperbole out to prove the point.

THAT. SUCKS.

Quote from: franciscaTHAT. SUCKS.

It does, indeed. What's even worse is just as I was getting in touch with the gaming community in the area in which to which I moved, I had to move 150 miles away from where I moved to in the first place. So now I have to start from scratch again - I know no one in this area at all.

That fucking sucks Colonel.  I hope you find a good group!

Nicephorus

I was doing CoC several months ago.  Now I'm down to play by post.

I'm winding up the second mad scientist adventure.  It's been going a while, with some really cool characters and some of the players are great writers.  Currently the characters are in 3 groups operating in parallel.  It's fun but I'm bored with it at times because I haven't been adding enough zip.  I'm about to bring all the groups back together at the old abandoned jelly factory to finally face Delores Flit, the butterfly geneticist.  Hopefully, it will be a wild fun climax.

I'm just starting a humorous low powered supers game along the lines of The Tick.  So far so good except that I had two players drop out just before starting.

Find a local gamestore is a good start.  By local I mena anything within 30-40 minutes from you.

Yeah, that was my first thought. I found an interesting one, and I'm getting a feel for it. I'm also looking into local gaming clubs and the like, but haven't found much yet.

Best case scenario is to make friends as one normally would and either find out they're gamers or make gamers out of 'em. Not that easy to do.
