Hello!

#1 Post by MajorRoy »

I'm not a robot!

I've played pnp-rpgs since the 80s, mostly as a GM. I played some pbp with Alleria many moons ago, but it never stuck. In recent years i've been bitten by the OSR-bug, and all shall see my glorious transformation.

kind regards!
Johan

This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.

Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Another proof of humanity!

#10 Post by MajorRoy »

Hello again fellow flesh mounds!

My first rpg was the swedish Drakar och Demoner, a fantasy rpg using the BRP system. The game was blessed with some awesome adventures and an amazing campaign, but the game itself devolved into a hot mess, going the simulation route into incomprehensibility. Other games I've played is Call of Cthulhu, Over the Edge, different versions of the swedish sci fi game Mutant and now Lamentations of the Flame Princess, a new favorite.

I hope this is enough to unhollow to take part of the online content!

kind regards
Johan

This is ground control to MajorRoy... That's all I've got. Welcome aboard, anyway!
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

Hej hej, välkommen och tervetuloa! It must be that time of year where the Scandinavians are coming out of hibernation.

Would you ever be interested in running a Drakar och Demoner game if it were one of the older editions?
