Posted: Mon Dec 15, 2008 3:41 pm Post subject: Games That I Plan to run
My list has scaled down alot over the last few weeks, as opportunity to play them has just not been there.
I want to run a superhero game using the diceless Marvel System (if anyone reads this Jay is suppoed to be bringing in my copies of it tonight, if i'm not there can someone make sure Hairy Matt or preferably Dave gets them as I should see one of them soon)
As well as dads army Cthulhu. Looking forward to writing and testign that one! _________________ All those who are about to die. I salute you!

Hoping to run
Cthulu - Pacific Island(Needs to be written up, already run it once.)
Cthulu - Border Reavers (To be written)
Boardgames (Settlers or Risk 2210 probably)
Do people want to do a playtest day or 3 before then? I think more then 1 scenario in a session is a bit optimistic.

Good point, Boardgames for me will be Warrior Knights (play it recently and it was awesome!) and the infallible Robo Rally! _________________ All those who are about to die. I salute you!

Well due to it being dislodged by another, better idea I now have a 1 shot "dungeon" for 4th ed D&D that I could run. It's short and simple and more break down the door than roleplay so should fit well, but I'll need to testrun to ensure I can run it in the 4 hour time frame.
Edit: Had I seen this earlier I would have prodded Jamie. Sorry Az.

Not to be pedantic, but it's Border Reivers, (assuming you're reffering to the scottish/english border skirmishing between 13th-17th century) being from Carlisle, and having membership to a museum with a large section on them I couldn't pass on that one.
If you want to confer about anything let me know, though you may well be more researched than me...
They had a big stone placed in Carlisle at the millenium and they scribed a famous old curse that a bishop once made at the reivers, and a bunch of stuff started going wrong, including massive flooding shortly afterwards and there was talk of getting the stone removed, but I think in the end they settled on getting some modern day clergy to lift the curse.

pedantic bugger.
I have some reaserch done but may come to you with some questions, its an idea at the moment, I dont seem to have much time atm so unless I get some time between now and then it wont be getting run at conception. Expect to see it run in the club at some time in the future.

OK, After much thought, I have decided that I will try running a game at the con, but as I’ve not been before and I haven’t run a game at a con before at all, it will just be a short D&D Adventure/dungeon set in the Eberron world.
To make it a bit more interesting, I am going to try to run it using as many of the Play-test classes from the wizards website, such as Artificer and Barbarian, as I can get my hands on to make it a touch more interesting. If any-one out there has a D&D insider subscription and can help out that would be very cool. I figure there are enough people out there who will still fancy giving 4th ed a try.
Shell and me will be taking as many of our boardgames as we can (Shadows over Camelot, Mystery of the Abbey, Chez Geek) and we will probably include some more traditional board games such as Monopoly and the like.

I can help with this. Prod me at the weekend and I'll pop some stuff on a memory stick and bring it on Sunday. A word of warning, all the recent previews (Druid, Invoker and Warden that I remember of the top of my head) have only gone up to level 3 so if you wanted to go higher you'd be limited to two you mentioned and the Bard for new classes. Sorceror is also due but not until the 26th which is cutting it fine (and again will most likely be up to level 3). _________________ I'm here to kick ass and take names! If that's okay with everyone...
That would be great! I will give you a text on Saturday to remind you.
I was only planning on it being Level 3, that way people don’t have to many complex bits to learn with their characters, and it’s high enough that every-one should have something interesting to do.
Good stuff!! Its easy enough, the hardest part will be the timing, thats why you have to play test at least once. Worst comes to worst we can always play test it when we are down there
I am thinking civil war time for my marvel game, new heroes who start out right in the middle of it all.
Not sure if i'd wan't to do pro-registration and have them rooting out the rebels, maybe meeting a very big-name character who tries to sway them.
Or anti-registration, trying to dodge the cape-busters and pro heroes, maybe alone or part of the resistance.
Any thoughts?
