Looking to get into another good game or two so I figured I'd throw in my two cents. I find APs to kind of be hit or miss with me personally; generally depends on the DM I suppose (for example I really like what Scott is doing in Carrion Crown and making the characters feel personally invested and such...I feel like sometimes I've been in some APs and I just feel like a game piece in the story rather than part of it). I generally prefer homebrew but I'll give anything a shot; never done Kingmaker or Second Darkness and I think I played 1 session of Jade Regent once. The Darklands sounds interesting. I played a lot of 3.5 as well, but nothing in Forgotten Realms (always played in homebrew worlds).</p>
<p>Probably not being helpful by saying down for anything, haha. I don't really know what Second Darkness or Kingmaker are about, but I'm not sure Jade Regent would be my cup of tea just from what I saw in my short exposure to it.</p>Hey CrusaderWolf, I believe I'm currently playing with you Scott's Carrion Crown (Dmitry here).

Also, threads like this are not always a great indicator of interest when you don't have a specific AP or such in the title. Kingmaker games regularly draw crowds in the dozens to apply, even when I had an opening for two people in my ongoing KM game I got probably 12-15 submissions. You'd get a lot more with a game run from the start.</p>
<p>PbP requires more effort for the kigdom building, but if you get a strong group it can work. If you do end up running it, whether I'm in it or not I could give you some tips to help it run more smoothly.</p>Assuming you don't mind someone who has read Kingmaker playing in your game, I'd be interested.
