Re: PLAYERS WANTED

Seems there is warranted interest in a game like this. I will post a link here for people to RTJ once I am done making the preparations. Thanks again!

As promised: link to another game

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

Hi all. Those who remember I was on this site a few years running a few games. I've been lucky enough to get a good work/life balance so can start running a few games in the new year. The first game is set in primarily Mousillon and requires two characters ideally one noble and one not. Pm for more details

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

A quick search of the WFRP game system shows only three games currently recruiting, 2 are in Hungarian and 1 is a long running game closing in on 30,000 posts so may not be newbie friendly. I'm watching a game on my sticky list that has just started up, if a space opens I'll let you know.

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

There is room for one more if any Old Worlders dare brave the City of the Damned. A Mordheim crawl along with role-play elements of intrigue, exploration and wyrdstone tainted adventures of the Grim and Perilous variety.

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

Do read the Premises, though.
Your
Old
World
Will
Vary
Specifically: only humans.

Have 1 (maybe 2) slots free.

The game is running since Aug 18, i.e. the Game Info has not been updated since then but should be read anyway.

The Group has investigated and ended a disease in southern Wissenland (near Kreutzhofen), ending a ritual that corrupted an ancient elven holy site and spawned Nurglings and Plaguebearers to spread the disease. The group has taken some elven artefacts from the site which seemingly had been used in the thwarted ritual. They wanted to learn more about these artefacts. The disease seemed to have originated in Bretonnia but the Montdidier Pass has been closed off by both the Elves of Athel Loren and the Dwarves of the nearby holds.

The Group thus headed east to Sonnefurt where they investigated a murder mystery and saved the scapegoat murderess. Everyone then believed the true culprit had been killed, everyone but the characters. But they were unable to unravel the uneasiness they all felt about a potential man behind the scene and travelled on to Wusterburg.

The Group is currently at Wusterburg, it is 19. Pflugzeit 2515 I.C., and they are about to consult a scholar who knows more about Elves and hopefully can provide some further insight...

Expected posting rate is 1x/d - 3/w

The Group currently is composed of
Dieter von Baden (Investigator)
Franz Mueller (Soldier)
Heldric Kuhn (Villager)
Sebastien Bauer (Hunter)

A new character would start at 1.000 XP

XPs are distributed according to
  1. Session End is at ~100 IC Post Count total (excluding GM Posts)
  2. Everyone with at least 10% IC Post Contribution will get 30 XP.
    Less than 10% will result in linear reduction
  3. A further 50 XP x characters distributed according to
    Criteria%
    IC Word Count60
    IC Post Count30
    IC GM Impression10
    I.e. with 4 active players the amount is 200XP
  4. Addtional XP are allocated when achieving Short Term Ambitions


EDIT: closed again

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

We have room for some 4e characters. Having just finished the first scene we are running the Starter Set opening and then onward into the unknown of the Grim and Perilous fourth Edition version of Ubersreik and Beyond!

We have an opening at Witch Hunter and Soldier. So if one of you is into stabbing the other can burn or vice versa! We are an equal opportunity adventuring group when rooting out the Ruinous Powers!

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

Hello, long lost poster returning here.
I'm planning on starting up a new game in the new year, using the old WFRP 2nd Edition rules.
If anyone would be interested please drop me a PM or reply directly and I'll be happy to share more details :)

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

In reply to Denalor (msg # 179):

Well, one player completely disappeared, seemingly from the whole site and not just my game.

 COVID-19 is obviously causing major troubles, too, even on this free time hobby.

 So, once again, I would like to add some characters, 1, maybe 2.

 The Group currently is composed of
 Dieter von Baden (Investigator)
 Franz Mueller (Soldier)
 Heldric Kuhn (Villager)
 Karin Sprunghaft (Entertainer)
 Sebastien Bauer (Hunter)

 Right now - after a month of inactivity - only Dieter and Heldric seem to be able to post again.

 So what happened in the last 5 RL months ?
 Only a day has passed in game, it is 20th Pflugzeit 2515IC
 Quite a lot, I should say.

 West, at the edge of the Barony of Mackensen was a mystery forest that few people dared to enter as rumours of elves and other strange faeries abounded that did not allow entry into their wood, much as in Athel Loren, the large realm of the Wood Elves between the Empire and Bretonia.
 However, a prospecting party of miners had actually entered at the beginning of spring and returned with news of rich ores to be found beneath the dark canopies. The rumour spread quickly and the surrounding nobles were each claiming the forest to be within their own borders. Obviously, there was truth in that, as seemingly the forest was large enough to touch each of these baronies. Each noble has sent armed forces to enforce that claim.
 The forest seems to have spread further as trees now cover regions that were previously barren land and plains. This has effectively closed down any traffic (and thus trade) with the settlements upriver as any river barges are being ambushed, the clear intent being murder and not robbery.
 Baron Von Eigenhof's soldiers were slaughtered by creatures of the forest, Von Kalb's mercenaries have turned into marauders and harrass the southern lands of the Barony Mackensen, seemingly for private reasons as the captain of that force had previously been loyal to Mackensen but had been dismiseed from service. Of the other two factions no news were heard.
 The group also learned that the prospectors venturing into the Forest of the Lost had retrieved magical items.
 Consulting with a scholar and a wizard the group learned the Forest of the Lost, also called Athel Brocelon, seems to be ruled by a Dryad Queen who is vengeful and hates humans. Clearly the Queen is angered by the intrusion of the prospectors and more so by the armies closing in on her realm and she intends to fight back.
 The dryads are a dying race and the Queen used to change human children to become dryads with her magic and an artefact, the Lute of Wisdom. There is a myth that the Lute of Wisdom was stolen a long time ago by one of the changed. The time scope is a mystery, however.
 The Elven Artefacts retrieved by the group at the very edge of Wissenland more than a month ago have been investigated by both the scholar and the wizard. Clearly the symbolism involved is of growth, health, recovery and fate. And they are magical, though also tainted by the ritual of the Nurgle sorcerer.
 The group also learned a seeming resolution of the murders in Sonnefurt. All along they had suspected that the Freiherr Bader was involved in the murders and in Wusterburg they learned that the war hero is homosexual and may have murdered in Sonnefurt out of fear that his tendencies become widely known. The group has learned that Baroness Katarina von Heisenberg's soldiers are led by the Freiherr and maybe the hated noble comes within their reach again.
 Meanwhile, a murder occured in the dock area of Wusterburg. The victim a prostitute who has unearthly traits and was obviously much older than she appeared to be.
 The group intends to venture forth into the Forest of the Lost to offer the Elven Artefacts to the Queen of the Dryads, hoping to appease her to relent from waging war on the humans.

In reply to Denalor (msg # 182):

Dieter here. I wanted to chime in to say that Delanor is one of the better GMs I've played for in my 10 years on RPOL. He has well thought out and executed story lines that require some deduction and skepticism to suss out.

The RL issues with the group have been sporadic and since covid, a few have been radio silent.

It's been a great game and if you are a consistent player who loves some good role playing I urge you to check it out.

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

I am assuming it's a 4th Ed game, and while I haven't really gotten to try it, I would very much like to, if you'd consider having a noobie. I played 2e and I'm familiar with the concepts, just never did the execution of playing properly.

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

Well, thanks Croatoan :D

Yup, it is 4th Ed as seen in post #179 above ;)

Follow the link, read what is there, determine whether this is the type of game you'd like to play in.

You need to understand that the game started as a mere "Check-the-new-rules", using an adventure I had drafted when 2nd Edition had been released.
Also, that it had been an "upon-invitation-only" game since I am pretty annoyed by drop-outs from various other games I had staged in the last 10 years here on RPoL. And those invited I have known for several years. Even so, by now we are almost a completely new Crew. Of the original set-out only two remain, Franz and Sebastien, and of those only Franz can truly be considered active as Sebastien simply has too much on his plate, it seems. It is neigh impossible to absent for some time and then think one can just enter again. Too much is happening, too much is connected. This is not a complaint, but simply a fact. If you get the feeling "oh damn, I need to post in that game", feeling harried, then this is not enjoyment but chore.
I have become very sensitive about dropping-out which is why I keep nudging potential players to truly read through the threads revealed.
I need consistent players who really realize that dedication is a requirement to truly enjoy the game.
See my comment here on this 'game' Forum in General thread, post 925.
If you just 'want to try out that new system' then maybe this is not the game for you. I keep telling that to avoid disappointment on both sides.
Oh, also: I have no issues at all with people not knowing the system, this is not a criteria for me.

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

Yea, I can have the self-knowledge that I can admit that I don't like high-speed pacing or posting in PbP games. I usually like taking my time with it. So if that is how this game is, then I'll skip applying for it, for my own and for your sakes. Thanks for the clearup though, being honest is nice beforehand.

Re: PLAYERS WANTED

OMG, totally unexpected rush of RTJs. Why unexpected? Last time I recruited I had such meagre response.
Thanks everybody.
Unfortunately I cannot take so many but I will definitely keep evryone who RTJ'ed on my list in case in need more or replacement players.
For now, though, recruiting is closed again.
