Hello, ffilz aka Frank Filz reporting for duty

#1 Post by ffilz »

Eris invited me to join his Traveller game here, so I thought I'd introduce myself here first since I can't yet post in his game...

I've been role playing since fall of 1977 when my best friend got the Holmes Basic D&D set for his birthday. Eventually I got the OD&D boxed set and eventually AD&D and loads of other RPGs including the 1977 Traveller boxed set.

My current gaming interests are OD&D and Classic Traveller, with a very soft spot for RuneQuest (my somewhat battered copy of 1st edition RuneQuest is one of my most prized gaming items), and for one more modern game, Burning Wheel.

I run OD&D and Classic Traveller play by post games over on the odd74 forums, and have recently started a Classic Traveller Google Hangouts game.

Thanks for having me here.

Welcome Frank!!
--Ron--
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.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
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.

Welcome, Frank. You'll find plenty of D&D and AD&D love here. Other games, too (like you obviously know).


Enjoy!

Welcome aboard!
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.

Welcome to the site. Enjoy your game and join others if you like. I am envious a bit. If I had the time, I would love to play Traveller.
