Hello

#1 Post by MrSethward »

Hey all! Really interested in joining a PBP game and saw this website suggested multiple times. I've been playing RPGs on and off now for 5 years, but now work in countries where I am unable to get any type of game running and lack the internet speeds for Roll20/Skype gaming. However, I've got a few of my books with me and want to put them to good use!

I've played and feel comfortable with 3.5/PF, Savage Worlds, BRP (RQ/CoC), and all BWHQ games (except Freemarket, hopefully one day!). However, the only books I have with me are for Burning Wheel and Torchbearer, so would prefer to play those as I have no PDFs with me either.

I am definitely open to playing any system, I just don't support illegally downloading tabletop games, so guess it would have to be something available for free online, similar to PF. Look forward to playing with you all soon!

Welcome. I believe you'll find such games here!
Be well,
--Ron--
PS: we have a two post moderation policy. After your second post you should be able to post with no delay. Again welcome!
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.

Hail and well met, MrSethward!

Welcome and glad to have you aboard! 8-)


As Ron stated, we do have some Burning Wheel & Torchbearer gaming goodness going on and even if you can't immediately get in on those, I'm sure there are some other player opportunities to be had. Folks here are great and if you get a chance to join a game you don't have a rule set pdf for, I'm pretty sure someone could likely provide you with a legit link or site to download that.

Best,

Mitch

Welcome aboard!
On November 2nd I will 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.
