Game Proposals

Got an idea for a game, campaign setting or adventure concept you want to vet with  other players before starting? Throw it out here for some initial feed back or to gauge interest.

Re: Game Proposals

So anybody tried the d20 modern pf version made by fan?

I'll be interested in running a d20 modern pf inspired one of these days, curious to hear if some people tested it by any chance.

First I've heard of it, but it sounds awesome to me. :)

Re: Game Proposals

First I've heard of it, too.  I was a little frustrated with d20 Modern, and this looks like it fixed a lot of it.

Re: Game Proposals

I wasn't too thrilled with how d20 modern did their base class / advanced class thing.

Re: Game Proposals

Modern style games aren't horrible if the GM and the Players can work on the same mindset that the actual goal of the game isn't to go around slaying demons, looting anything not bolted down or otherwise going about the adventurer lifestyle. As opposed to traditional pathfinder, if the game takes place in the modern day, people are less likely to believe that demons and the likes are real.

At that, I think most modern games don't incorporate enough realism to the situation. I'm partly against the idea of a modern game because it doesn't seem to fall far from the original premise of pathfinder or original DnD; hack and slash and demon slaying with epic moments.

I'd be down for a game in the modern setting, but I'd need to know that the setting is actually making it more mysterious and frightening for players to be dealing with divinity or the likes. Having a group of people shrug off the image of a flesh-eating zombie or some mobile gelatinous ooze doesn't exactly set the tone.

Personally, I'd be interested in a game like Predator using the d20 Pathfinder system. Predator had the style I enjoyed, where public knowledge of an alien hunter was kept quiet for obvious reasons.

Re: Game Proposals

Ya know what pathfinder games are really lacking? a good old FR based game. I haven't been in one in ages and always loved FR.

In reply to Cyrik (msg #9):

I'm assuming he means Forgotten Realms.

Re: Game Proposals

Ah! That makes sense.

Pretty sure FR is the IP of WotC or something, Pathfinder would need a license to use that setting.

Re: Game Proposals

Heh, I meant someone running an Fr game with pathfinder. And yes I meant forgotten realms, pre spell plague as that was not FR.

Re: Game Proposals

My Saturday night game is currently Pathfinder:Forgotten Realms. DM uses mostly the 3rd ed Fr book (the pretty white one) with some info from older sets mixed in.

We've been playing it for over a year and just like everything else with Pathfinder it is way fun.

Re: Game Proposals

I was thinking of attempting to run a pathfinder game where the players each find themselves indebted to some mysterious entity, possibly demonic but certainly evil in nature, who brings them together to accomplish a task to clear that debt. For those of you who know the WH universe, think something akin to the Malus Darkblade books.
So would there be any interest in such a game?

Re: Game Proposals

So these are basically good characters force to do some evil deed?  (No doubt they are trying to ameliorate the evil of it, I guess.)  I'm interested.  What level were you thinking about?

Re: Game Proposals

Not necessarily evil, the char. could be of any alignment. They would basically be forced to work together by this 'entity', hopefully furthering some interesting rp moments.

Re: Game Proposals

What level are you considering?  I'm thinking about a character who has had a significant alignment shift since he first started out, but the whole concept only works if you plan to start at, say, fourth level or higher.

Re: Game Proposals

I have a level 7 summoner build I put together for a game a friend of mine was running... I cry inside a bit each day knowing that he's never seen any air time. <3

Re: Game Proposals

Summoner, I still want to play one in my real life game, I'll most likely do a ninja or a magus. We will see.
