Looking forward to games

#1 Post by Gorethirster »

Hello all,

I've been into RPGs since the early 2000's when I got sucked in with D&D 3.0 and 3.5. Since then I've spent a lot of time poring over rulebooks for a variety of systems (D&D, FFG 40k RPGs, Shadowrun, Traveller, Eclipse Phase, Deadlands, and CP2020 mostly). However, I haven't actually played in that many games, so I'm looking to fix that. I'm looking forward to getting into some games and having some good times!

Welcome Gorethirster, dig the username!!
Enjoy,
—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.

It's hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they always take things literally.

Welcome!

Probably the best thing to do is reply with your strongest interest on the "What would you like to play or run?" thread. Then you'll get e-mails when anyone posts.

Howdy!

I am still recruiting for a Casketlands game if you are interested.

Hopefully, the forums also have some folks interested in a Shadowrun game. Reading your list sparked my interest in getting more familiar with the game.

Welcome!
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.
