Looking for a few good old school RPG players for a Castle & Crusades game to be played via Skype. If you aren't familiar with the system... check out Troll Lord games to find out what its all about. In a nutshell.. its the simplicity of original D&D meets the more logical d20 method (no THACO here!)... they've dumped all the skills and feats, and made character creation lean and mean. Its a lot of fun, and super easy to run. I prefer to play over messenger.. no need for fancy maps/software etc.... if you can get on skype and chat... then we'll be up and playing in no time. Was thinking to do a throwback campaign in good old Greyhawk... I have the 1983 boxed set, in PDF format to start throwing together some nostalgic classic RPG adventures... don't let those Orcs and Goblins get you down... let's ride out and hunt them down, and show them who is boss with a flick of ye olde d20. Who's with me?
6 days and no responses to such an awesome throwback post.
First, color me interested. I suggest you consider using PbP. Sure, it takes a while, but it works with busy schedules. Finding a party to play a throwback system to be online at the same time will be difficult.
I also have the Greyhawk boxed set! Also interested, but agree that a play by post works best for my schedule. =)
