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.

Campaign webpages

I'll begin by spruiking my own campaign webpage, for Tiwesdæg Clíewen 2. It's fairly detailed, probably equivalent for about a 30 page setting book, talking about my current campaign I'm running, in a Saxon dark ages low fantasy world

Who else has a campaign webpage? I think they're very good for helping keep your players' interest - especially if, like mine, it's a wiki and the players themselves can contribute to it - and of course they're great for player recruitment, too. You look at a bunch of pages like that, and you think, wooah, this group have got their shit together!

And of course, it's really interesting to read of other people's campaigns. So, who else has a campaign webpage or two? I need some reading matter ;)

Once I have it all spruced up, my intention is for the Gateway Quadrant wiki to serve as a resource for players in a future Traveller game.  In the meantime this wiki also functions as a museum to a set of Traveller material that has been de-canonized.

Currently running: For the Love of Golden Sapphire, (Tekumel: Empire of the Petal Throne). The trials & tribulations of clan Golden Sapphire after a devestating civil war. Love, betrayal, war, dungeoncrawl, planehopping, techno-magic, tubeways, androids, undead cats, demons, zombies, Chlen beasts, motile traffic cones, and the Sneezing Man.

Currently playing in: Skathros' DF C&C game (Castles & Crusades homebrew setting). Ancient dopplegangers return and spring their plan to rule the lands.

Currently prepping for play in: New Arcadia (Traveller: The New Era homebrew setting). The starship Aristophanes, hope of Humanity, arrives eight years late in the wrong solar system.

Some campaigns I used to be in:
ISS Ursula (Traveller d20 late Golden Age OTU). The penal crew of the ISS Ursula uncovers corruption and a plot to commit genocide beyond the Third Imperium. "I saved the 'verse and nobody remembered to book a hotel room?"
Maelloc (homebrew fantasy). Aliens, magic, the return of the trolls, airships, ancient ruins, and gunpowder.
Terran Praesidium (then a CT variant homebrew setting, now in the works from Avenger using a house system). A small verse, with Russians in space, beetle and praying mantis alien species, and killer catgirl ninjas. Setting, artwork and designs by one of the Traveller & 2300AD artists, Bryan Gibson.

:cool: While I like QLI's Gateway domain book, they papered over some neat stuff from the previous books. Good to see this and to compare with Gateway to Adventure.

I look forward to seeing more campaign content on those pages, jrients. Tell me, did you make it a wiki just for ease of use, and/or because you wanted some player contributions, too? In the past, I've found it good for players to be able to put up journals, etc. It gives players more of a sense of investment.

Wow, Casey777, that's a lot of pages! Give me a little while to get through them all, a good number might end up in the campaigns section of the big list of links.

I don't currently, but I'm glad to see more folk using them.  When they're maintained they're an awesome resource.  Not only do they document important game stuff, but they're perfect for getting a new player up to speed or showing a new group member the sorts of games the group has enjoyed in the past.

My Dirty 30s site started as a campaign site that quickly grew out of that nitch. Now I use it to keep things straight on the history and point the players there if they have a question about the time period

I usually make a blog for every game I run. We also use a mailing list for arranging games, discussing some things and stuff. With the new Google Groups Beta I'm thinking about abandoning blogs and doing everything with the group.

The pages are in Spanish, so I'm afraid that most people around here won't find them useful.
My name is Ramón Nogueras. Running now Vampire: the Masquerade (Giovanni Chronicles IV for just 3 players), and itching to resume my Call of Cthulhu campaign (The Sense of the Sleight-of-Hand Man).

I do MySpace groups. It makes it real easy to communicate with the entire group at once and it's a great place to put campaign info.
