Is anyone interested in playing #8-04 Wardens of Sulfur Gulch (10-11 subtier)?
If you are, please report here. We have two spots available.
Hi everyone,
With the end of Gameday V and the number of PbP games we all have reducing greatly, I wanted to use the opportunity to talk about what our awesome group could become.
First, it should be said that I really enjoy the community that Kludde has put together. Playing together scenarios after scenarios, meeting the same PCs, has really been an excellent experience for me, and I would be sad if it came to a halt.
In a post a few months ago, DM Kludde expressed the wish not to continue to GM all the scenarios in year 8 (also the end of year 7), but to cherry-pick a handful of them so that we could continue playing together. DMK, are you still keen on aiming for that plan? If you are, I'm 100% on board with you.
I thought a few times about this, and wondered "hey, we have a couple of GMs among us, maybe some of the people who aren't GMs yet might want to try it out, so why don't we take turns with that same plan?" Hence my proposal: if DMK and you guys are up for it, we could cherry-pick a few scenarios that we'd like to GM or play and take turns GMing, on a volunteer basis. Of course Kludde would get the first say in which scenarios he'd like to GM (or play if he so wishes), then the rest of us could express our wishes too.
One more thing: whatever the plan is, let's make sure we don't overburden ourselves, but that playing/GMing remains a pleasure for us all!
How does it sound? I'd really love if you could give some input, and hope you're as keen as I am to make that group strive.
Lithrac, I think Most of the group is in your Orders from the Gate.
I'm up for a rotating GM group.
I, too, loved the group and having consistent character groupings. Makes for good backstories! I am up for the idea - but don't want to run four to five consecutive games with the group again. =)
Yeah would be good fun - we have a pretty cool crew.
Agreed Rhanloi, one game at a time would sound reasonable, wouldn't it?
Thanks a lot for the interest in keeping the group alive. I'm very open to the idea of having rotating GMs.
I originally intended to keep running single scenarios for the group, but the reality so far has been that my spare time has been limited lately, with a lot of distractions going on.
As Glenn said, a lot of us are already in the 'Order' game. In a sense you could view that as a pilot. Perhaps, once that game is finished, we can see who has inspiration to run something?
It's Monday afternoon here - on Saturday morning I will be setting sail around the South Pac for a short break so will be out of comms 10-18 Dec - so if I'm silent, you know why :)
Glad to see such positive response! Order is about to conclude (this is the final fight as you may have guessed), so we can definitely see where we go once it's done.
Sweet, yeah it has been a cracking scenario!
It's great to play it with a Hellknight in the group, although it changes the final conundrum a little. I have yet to see a group choose the temple of the sky!
Choosing the other option seemed a bit of a dick move given the briefing though :p
Yeah - save the world or save a temple so we can loot it. How is that a choice? Unless we misunderstood the threat of the quippli-thingy =)
Besides, Grim hates xenos of all kinds - it's a Space Marine thing!!
So the question for the group is, do we keep playing these higher-level characters, grab our mid-level ones, or low-level/new characters? I would like to stick to one character to play with a group - like an IRL gaming group.
I would certainly love dedicating a given PC to the group, but we'll have to find a close match on the exp level. Which brings me to suggest that if we go that way (with the level 9ish characters) I could run the All for Immortality trilogy for you once the PCs reach level 12. I'll be playing it in a group that starts very soon.
In this level range, I have:
- Auric, archaeologist bard 7.1
- Tharkan, half-orc bloodrager 7.1
- Jhalan, human slayer 7.2
- Skarn, human oracle 8.0 (once he finishes his current game)
- Ennoia, aasimar archer 8.2 (9.2 once she finishes her current game)
- Ouroboreia, human magaambyan arcanist 9.2
- Shandor, human blaster sorcerer 10.2
... with a strong preference for my oracle, who would get on very well with the rest of the Order from the Gate party.
I am in another GM round robin group, joined for the previous module. They started at 1st level and are running with the same character through all the games. Just a matter of choosing an adventure that is over the right sub-tier that no one has played except maybe the current GM.
But then mixing it up with different characters is interesting too.
I have two characters in that range
- Marra dawn flower bard 8.1
- Ceobryrn Ranger 10.2
I have Penelope in range, and my conceited bard Fissa just below (nothing a few GM credits can't fix).
Alternatively, I can cash in on some more of those credits and build something from scratch :-D
Penelope, Marra, Skarn and Holman are all in the 8-9 range. If Grimaldus and another would join, it would make a rather formidable group.
I have only a handful of characters:
Grim - 9.2
Rhanloi - 6.1
Adrianna - 5.1
Vague Henri - 3.1
|
I would love to join. Need to dust-off (and level) 9.0 tengu pure musket master and make equipment purchases.
I have 5 levels of credit to apply to a 4th level musket master, so I can retrain those classes or level into a different class to suit the needs of the party. He has a base 20 DEX and 16 wisdom, so lot's of flexibility in potential builds before playing a 9th level character.
I am toying with the idea of 9 levels of Empyreal (wisdom) Sorcerer or Divine Hunter with Healing Domain if the party needs crowd control or healing support. Or I can just remain a hired gunslinger. Whatever is best for the group.
I also have a very soon to be 6.0 Seeker Sorcerer (Krux) and 2.7 TBD class (Zakon).
Healing will be covered. For scenarios that DMK doesn't GM, we'll have Penelope. For scenarios that he GMs, Skarn can be a great backup healer, choosing the Life spirit.
I have:
Dougal - Barb 9
Takahiro - Cleric/Pally 8
Svetlana - Hellknight 9.2
Blackjack Jacques - Bardbarian Eagleknight 9
Pitbull - Ranger 8
The lower stable:
Lance - Cav 7
Scarlet - BarbRogue 6
I'm thinking that the level spread of scenarios is such that we will probably find we need to mix and match a bit, assuming we are trying to stick to vaguely current season.
Correction - Grim is now level 10. Unless Svetlana wants to talk Grim into becoming a Hellknight...(using that awesome boon!!)
Now that Orders from the Gate has ended, I wanted to ask if anyone's interested in running "Tome of Righteous Repose", by chance?
Are you asking someone to GM it or play it?
Tome of Righteous Repose is 3-7 level and evergreen.
I have two characters in range to play the Tome both 5th.
What about the status of the 8-9 level game run?
I'd love to play it if possible. If people prefer playing the higher level characters, we can play them instead (though mine is still in a game day game...)
I'll run it, just downloading it now. Shifty is out until Dec 18, so let's set up the game until then and give him a chance to join.
Fantastic news, thanks DMK!
From the dots so far, it looks like we're playing in high tier. I'll try and push a bit with the QfP game...
With the following people, we have a full table:
Lithrac
Pedwiddle
GlennH
Rhanloi
Shifty
Vasari
