Re: OOC thread #1

In reply to Filimena the Gentle (msg # 805):

Well said and fully agree. As a DM, I also still enjoy the 5e system because me and my friends have played a long time with it, and it feels easy like old slippers to slip in. But this situation might give just the momentum that was needed for me to make my friends try other systems, at least for fantasy settings. I've also felt burned out to prep D&D session for a while, so I might use the opportunity to cleanse my palate and run some Call of Chulthu or Eclipse Phase again.

Re: OOC thread #1

Aside from this game I've stepped away from the 5e GM's chair.  Thankfully my usual crew is cool with trying other systems - we have done ICRPG, the Mecha Hack, and Monster of the Week so far.



With the current thread wrapping where are we going next? Back to the tavern?

Marik will certainly offer Filimena a ride back to the tavern. If she accept, he'll take the opportunity to talk to her a bit in private about the experience, so maybe we could open a new thread on the road. If she refuse and want to go elsewhere, he will go with her.

Re: OOC thread #1

Hello. Sorry, it's bit a bit of a crazy week, first with the Lunar New Year celebrations, and then me falling sick on Thursday. Still not recovered. Blah.

Yeah I think we can head back to the tavern. I'm not sure where to head from here, conversationally. I mean, Filimena could open a whole new line of conversation, but that would be simulation for its own sake at this point.

Re: OOC thread #1

Tough week and fallen sick (just a flu thankfully), but I'm not forgetting you guys! Should be able to post in the next few days. I'm still debating how I go from here in the bar, but I know Marik will want a word with Filimena on the way back. I'll see if I have a idea for the the return to the manor too.

Don't know if I told y'all this -- I released some "modules" for ICRPG over on itch : https://2716gaming.itch.io/

of Gods and Mortals & The Hall of Lord Ashthorn both could easily be translated to 5.

You too! Singapore recently cancelled ALL our COVID restrictions. We cancelled most of them already last year, but masks were still required on public transport, and I think there were travel restrictions and some self-isolation requirements for people who caught COVID, although I don't think the self-isolation was really enforced. But last week all remaining restrictions were cancelled. And I think almost immediately several flu/cold bugs started spreading around. I told you I came down with something after the Lunar New Year. Well, I recovered from that, and then just a short while later came down again with another illness, which this time thankfully was not so bad. I got better after just a couple of days of feeling horrible.

Wow! Congrats! I'll definitely check them out. Is "ICRPG" a specific system, or is it a general term for a kind of RPG played with index cards?

Oops!  ICRPG is short for Index Card RPG by Runehammer Games -- https://www.runehammer.online/

It's a stripped down d20 system which I've been running for a while now as my go to system

Wow DM, that pairing description was beautiful and actually made my mouth water. :P Started working on my post and got lost in a rabbit hole of thinking about wood elves tea ceremonies, character development and cuisine. Well done! Need to go to bed, but will try to finish it tomorrow.

Re: OOC thread #1

Glad my write up did what I hoped it would.  Had to check and rechecked the idea which means my Google suggestions are about to shift I'm sure

Re: OOC thread #1

Sorry for the tardiness! First my brother came down with COVID, and then me again, a second time. It’s nowhere near as bad as it was the first time, but I’ve been pretty sleepy.

I actually want to eat the fig thing now. I’m not sure where I’m going to be able to find yak meat, though. Haha.

Re: OOC thread #1

Hello! Sorry, I was away on holiday in Japan. I honestly thought I'd be able to continue posting at least once during the week as usual, but it turns out after a day's cycling and hiking the brain doesn't want to do anything. But I'm back now so I'll post something later today.

Re: OOC thread #1

To be honest, I'm still mired in my TTRPG funk. This game is fun, but it's the exception, I think. Having said that, are there any podcasts or YouTube channels you would recommend to see ICRPG played? I'm curious enough I might at least want to try that and see what happens. I could just do a search of course but maybe there's one particular series you think makes a good introduction?

Probably Kane's Kiln - https://www.youtube.com/@KanesKiln - he's doing great work showing how ICRPG works as system for newcomers (and vets like me).

Re: OOC thread #1



Nice, DM! I admit I know very little of ICRPG, but great job helping it put together. Will go check it out.


As for the game, currently on holidays after being out of town for two weeks and going on camping for a few days. I'll try to post early next week.

Great weekend to both!

Re: OOC thread #1



Hola! Yes, I'm there, sorry! Been quite distracted these last few weeks and seldom had time to sit down and think about what to do next. I do admit I wasn't quite expecting we'd actually get to foraging and thought the bells chimes downstairs would lead us face to face with the half-orc who shadowed us or something XD Noy complaining though! I'm pretty sure there's plenty of adventures and interesting encounter to be had while out in the wilds and it will be a nice change of pace for Marik and Rani to have some space and be in their elements instead of an urban setting and cramped dungeons. :D

Re: OOC thread #1

I only just realised I forgot to choose a new spell for Filimena after the last level up aaaaages ago. This weekend is going to be busy because I'm moving houses and of course there's the New Year's, but I'll see if I can do that next week, and in the meantime pay for my sins with not having that spell available for combat.

Apologies. Hectic few days since Wednesday and having trouble finding the time to sit down and post something between activities. Should be able to post maybe later tomorrow or Tuesday. :) Great rest of the weekend to you both!
