I haven't DMed in awhile but I've been thinking about throwing my hat back into the mix. I like long campaigns though. I scrounged up some of my old AD&D modules and box adventures when I came across my old Dragon Mountain box set which I converted to d20 several years ago. If there is enough interest, I'm willing to run this massive adventure in a PbP format.
I'll have to work out some of the details for Pathfinder but will probably run the adventure with 6 players starting at 10th level.
If I run the game, it won't start right away. I'll need to scan the maps, letters, etc... and do some other things to fit Pathfinder but shouldn't require to much work since I already converted it to d20 system. If enough interest is shown, I see myself putting up a recruitment thread sometimes mid March.
I didn't grow up playing RPG's and have therfore missed on all of the old modules and would love a chance to play them. So I know nothing about the campaign or the setting but would love to give it a try. In short, I'm interested.
I am so in for that campaign. We never got to finish it and it has been so very long since I played it.
I'd be interested as well!
Count me interested!
I'd be interested in this as well
Definitely interested, I'll be looking forward to recruitment!
No idea what this Dragon Mountain module is but it seems to involve mid-level play, dragons, and mountains so it sounds awesome to me.
Sounds interesting, any chance you could create a quick blurb about what the campaign is about? I have a neat summoner who is a Prophet of the End Times by the claw of a great red Dragon that might be an interesting fit. His Eidolon is a big Red Dragon as well, and would be fun to scale up in levels, however if being so closely tied to dragons is unwanted I could come up with something else too :)
Dotting for interest!°
As others have stated, neither I did grow up playing RPGs and I always thank the opportunity.
But then you said this...
Dragon Mountain is a plane-shifting city-sized dungeon (probably influenced by the old Arduin dungeon Caliban and, of course, Brigadoon.) While there are dragons, it is not exclusively about dragons. Parts of it fall into the humor/camp category similar to White Plume Mountain.
And now I can't help but monitor this interest thread until recruitment is started.
Godspeed Jesse, onwards to glory!

So I went to this page before but didn't click on the plot summary because I didn't want spoilers (it took a lot of will power) but i was wondering for anyone who has read it are there any spoilers in it or am I better off not reading it?
Dotting.
DOT.
There looks to be enough interest, so I'll be doing it. As for races/classes I'm leaning toward any official Paizo material. Though I'm thinking of having no firearms/gunslingers since they might be too powerful for an old campaign like this.
Since the dungeon is something that travels between worlds/dimensions, I'll have it pop up somewhere in Golarion.
An official recruitment thread will be up probably on the second week of March or sometime around then.
Dotting this for interest.
Would a normal drow be allowed?
Would a normal drow be allowed?
Yeah. But the group will be non-evil and probably won't allow Chaotic Neutral either.
Also, whatever group winds up joining I'll probably want them to be part of an established party already. So what players I select will be given an opportunity to for each player to get their characters to know each other before the game officially starts.
Dotting with interest
Interested, so dotting
Excellent. Yup I would be interested as well.
Dot.
Like some other people on here I playds one game for so long that I never got to play any of the classic modules or adventures that all veteran players have played before, I I'm totally interested in revisiting some old games. Dotting with interest :)
Gonna start working on a character concept asap.
Would you allow a Summoner Synthesist Archetype? I'd probably go for that or a Hunter maybe.
.
I'm going to allow any official Piazo class/archtype with a few exceptions.
Where Unchained is available, they must be chosen.
No Samurai, Ninja and Gunslinger
If an Archtype is new to me, after I look it up I might decide to not allow it.
@That Sean fellow,
After looking up the Summoner Synthesist, I have no problem with it. So allowed.
What races will be available?

Thank you kindly! I think it could be fun. Think I already know what he would turn into. But will finalise it. really looking forward to this old school game. Saw that it got a buncha great reviews.
I've had a weird idea I've wanted to play for a while. This looks like a fun campaign to do it in. Consider me interested.

What races will be available?
Any Core or Advanced Race Guide are okay.
-----------I'm allowing more strange combinations on Race/Class options because being a old school module, they tend to be more deadly than modern modules. Last time I ran this game, which when 3E D&D just came out, the party had some very tough spots and some deaths before we even finished the first Book in the box. There are 3 books in all.
That sounds hectic!
The Dragon Mountain Adventure comes in what was called a Deluxe Box Set. It has three thick books for the adventure itself, a lot of maps and printouts as well. Being this will be a PbP game, I suspect it will take over a year to finish.

I'm very interested in participating; are you doing 20 point buy? Starting wealth? Traits? Background skills yes/no?
Haven't worked out all the details yet. Will probably put up a Recruitment Post on March 1st. But I will probably go with the 25 point buy and 2 Traits. I'm debating on using Background skills or not. And since the characters will start at 10th level I'll have to do some math and see how I want to handle that and magical items.
I was originally thinking of 6 players, but the game is designed for 6 to 8 players. So if enough good entries are submitted I might make it an 8 member party.
Also, even though the characters will start at 10th level, there is a good possibility of them reaching 20th level at the end of Dragon Mountain. If they survive.
That would be interesting, aside from WOTR I've never reached 20th in a game.
The more I hear about this the more excited I get. Working on my character this week so I'll be ready for recruitment when it comes up.
Man I hope my character can survive this game. :)
@banesama
I will adjust this character now that I have a better idea of your build requests.
Thank you for taking the time to do this adventure
Intriguing. Looking forward to seeing the recruitment post.
