Star Wars pbp?


Gamer Connection


Just got KOTOR II (I know, a little late) and it got me thinking.
Are there any Star Wars pbp out there? If there are, I would love to join. I've been playing with Star Wars toys from when I can remember and enjoyed the literature in the 90's but may be out of touch in whats new or new-ish.

So if there is a game going that needs a newbie or a game starting up, please consider answering this thread.


The most recent version is Star Wars Saga by WOTC, and it recently got discontinued. I run it with my friends IRL, and I know there's one game of it running on the boards, the Dawn of Defiance campaign written by Wizards. I don't think they're taking more players though. If there was another DM running I'd likely play, I run the game so much but I never get to play it.


This might be somthing.


Ah...
There's no srd, so scratch that. I don't have any sourcebooks.


Thank the lord for good friends. I've got the material if any noob friendly star wars pbp are starting up.


Unfortunately I don't have the time to run another game, or I would.


Maybee if we keep chating to continously bumb the thread up someone will take pitty on us ;P


Good luck guys. I am currently in Kalderaan's Dawn of Defiance campaign on this board and it is going great! Keep your eyes open and keep bumping and hopefully it will pan out for you. If Kalderaan lets us know he wants to recruit another player, I'll let you know. Right now we are second level, transitioning to third shortly.


As much as I would love to play it, and think I would be fine with not metagaming, as I have mentioned in another thread like this I am running DoD for my second group. As a result I obviously know all the plot twists and such, so the experience would likely be of more value to Sigz. That said, I'm always here if a slot opens. ;)


Thanks MoB. I appreciate it :)


*bump* :D


I own Star Wars Saga material.

Not sure on running something but am willing to make a character.


Cool. That makes us three players :)


I have joined three Star Wars games on this board in the last year or so and all have succumbed to very quick deaths.

I would love to play in a Star Wars PbP but no such luck yet.

I am running a game as markofbane mentioned but it is currently full. If that changes, we can recruit.

I do have an idea for an all-Jedi game set in the Old Republic but I just don't have the time for it. Perhaps if I had a co-DM or something, I would consider it but until then...

Good luck and keep bumping. The Force will be with you!


Thanks Kalderan. That would make four players or three players plus a dm if a co-dm appears.


I posted a DM Wanted ad on a couple of sites. Maybee it will pan out guys.


*bump*


I borrowed from a friend a copy of KOTOR campaign book along with Salvage Droids.

I will try to look through the material for plot ideas.

This pair of excel documents summarises pretty much everything in the game, which is extremely handy when you need a comprehensive list of talents/feats over all books. As for rulebooks, you can find all but the very newest ones as PDFs online.

I would say support the line and buy them, like I did, but since it's cancelled anyway...


Thanks, I'll take a look see.
And Smerg; If you run it, I'll play it ;)

I'm running 3 games right now. If one of them dies on me - and it seems that one will - I may begin SWTOR game. If you wish to check out how I run my games, here is the link.


Looks good nightflier :)
I've gotten in on one game on rpol.net and looks like I'm getting in on another, so I'm not actively LFG ATM.
If you start up a game I might aplie but right now I'm going to hold back.

Okay, I'm going over the material now.

I'll try to put up an elevator pitch in the next 24.

I would love to play as well. I once played Evoks Dark Lord of the Sith. It was a blast! So, if anyone else creates a game, count me in if there's room.


Throw my hat in the ring as well.


*Claps his hands in glee for all the interest*


Elevator Pitch:

A Secret Beginning: 3,958 BBY

The Republic has drawn a breadth of life to rebuild. The Mandalorian Wars has shattered many worlds. Thanks to Jedi Revan and Malak, the Madalorians were defeated at Malachor V and driven out of Republic Space. Revan and Malak at the head of a small fleet continue to chase the Mandalorians into the depths of the Unknown Regions.

People have been happy to once again see the return of peace to the Republic. People are beginning to call this the Second Restoration. It is a second chance for the Republic that was rocked previously be the Great Sith War in 4,000 BBY.

But in the depths of the Unknown Regions a monster awakens. A slumbering fleet of Sith Warriors bent on reclaiming the glory of the bygone days of the Sith. Ahead of them move their agents, gathering resources and preparing bases the Sith will need to strike to the heart of the Republic.

---------------------------

You have been working on a Republic Space yard, filled to capacity with Republic ships being rebuilt, repaired, and outfitted for duty following the damage they sustained in the Mandalorian War. It is the Republic's largest effort to repair and replace her fleet since the end of the Great Sith War.

You have come to the end of the work week and are pulling a few credits for a night of relaxation when the monitor displays the message, 'Awaken Black Valkyrie'. You suddenly start to remember that you are a sleeper agent planted on the Space Yard and you have a mission.

======================

Okay, that's the pitch. If you interested then let me know and I'll start a Discussion thread for making characters.

Um yeah, sounds great!

OMG!!!!

I am so there. I have been in two Star Wars campaigns on this board and both fizzled fast.

I am currently running a game just to get my Star Wars fix!

Even attended the Star Wars Celebration here in my home town of Orlando a few weeks ago.

Pick me, pick me!

Umm, I would LOVE to join another Star Wars game, as it makes my tiny cold heart grow two sizes and go all a-twitter. Literally.

Tiny_Cold_Heart78: OMG! SWRPG! So Cool. OMG! XOXOXOX!!!!


Okay, here is the pointer to the OOC thread.

Smerg's Star Wars

Check that out.

I list basic outline for character creation, race, and letting you know what your starting situation will roughly be.

I am looking for roughly 5 to 6 players (though will run with less).

I think the people that have posted interest already to this thread have the first call on spots (Sigz especially).

If we still need people after that then I will post again here to say that I would like X more people.

I'll give the prior posters 72 hours from 11 PM EST (Aug 30th) to review the other thread and sign in their interest to play before adding any new people looking for anyone else that might be interested.

I hope to get characters 'roughed' out by Friday (that's five days). If you find that to be a problem then you might find the regular campaign pace a problem and should consider that for your getting involved.

PS: I write quite a bit and often write (not all on gaming) 3K to 5K a day. Again, it is something to keep in mind when it comes to reading my postings.


Finally someone picks this up! Awesome, told you waiting would pay off Sigz. ;)

Am I correct in thinking that from what you've written there, this is set between the Mandalorian Wars and the Jedi Civil War, i.e. shortly before KotOR 1? Meaning we're playing the baddies yeah?

I'm good with all the above points, I'll go check in with the other thread.

Kalderaan, I'm in the same boat as you IRL. I run Star Wars for a couple of groups, but I want to play!


WOOT!!!

Yes, we are in the time between the Mandalorian Wars and the Jedi Civil War. Officially, it is the time of the Jedi Civil War but the Republic has yet to know that the Sith are launching there invasion.

If there is a spot, I'd like to play.

I have six players now. If you want to just lurk and follow along then you can do that for now.


One of the players that was going to play had to bow out at the last moment.

I have one opening available.

I first listed this in the OOC thread for anyone who was lurking.

The game has just started and the group is meeting up as part of the first scene of the first adventure.


What role do you need? I have been wanting to play a StarWars game for a long time. It's still Star Wars 3.5, right?

I like to play scoundrels and scouts and of course, jedis.

Sorry, we recruited the sixth to our group. For the moment, I'm full. I'll people know if a new opening occurs.
