Looking for a group to play via online.


Recruitment


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I am DMing a Pathfinder group on Sunday but I miss playing a character, having fun doing so. My group is a bit... hyper at times and non-to-talkative... So DMing them gets to be a part chore but fun regardless. But I want to make a character again and play. So I am looking for a group to join on-line. I have a pretty much open schedule. Though I need help learning the program "Skype" if it is that. I own the Core Book, DM book and the Ultimate Combat book (love the gunslinger and ninja :D).


Finding a game that uses Skype and a VTT (virtual table top, like d20pro or maptools) is rare, but not unheard of around here. You're best bet is to find a PbP (play by post) game. There are often people recruiting for them, and a lot of time people give preference to gamers new to PbPing.

If you don't know what play by post is, it's playing a game on the boards here, typing up and posting your actions in the game thread. There is some coding involved to roll the dice and format your text, but it's very very basic. If you'd like to know more just ask.

Thank you.


If your interested, Im thinking of running a Society game on Saturdays EST. See the post in Recruitment.

I currently run a Kingmaker game on maptools/skype every Tuesdays that has been rather fun and successful. So with a bit of patience it is possible to find long term campaigns... of course you can always consider starting your own!!!!!

There is always Tales of Agartha: The Avalon Chronicles. We're a rules-light/free form play-by-post that is always open to new people.

Always.


Check out my dwarves vs elves campaign if you want to try PbP.
Warning, I only use CORE - no janky 3.5 either


For me, as I said, I DM real time on Sundays. I am looking to relax, build a character and have some fun and not stress over the DMing part for a bit. Besides, I lack true experience in DMing and PbP to run a game here.

I can't help but recommend Agartha again... It really does seem like it might be a good fit for you.
