I don't have Kaiser's Gate so that's out for me ... but Weird War Rome or Fifty Fathoms work for me. I MIGHT have a Grael Brute laying around somewhere :)

KG could be done w/out the book, I figured if I did it i'd start with a Dawn of Magic setting, when magic first starts.  An Indiana Jones-ish type campaign, which would eventually turn into a WWI setting.

EDIT: if I did 50F, I'd probably skip or alter the opening, as most of us have probably done it to death

50F would be wonderful, as I've never played it past the opening scenario.

Yes, I have played throug the opening... two or three times at the least.

Oggy don't you have a 50F game in deletion currently?

Holy cow, I do.

I could resurrect that one.

oh, right... I was a doreen on that, I think!

Glad I checked my epic list of games played :)

Yeah I was Maximilien Monte, RIP Cap'n Monte, then James Paige in that game

If this was not a fantasy world it would remind you of Bombay, India back in 1,000 AD.
Hot, crowded and colorful.

Your body is no longer as it was and your mind is full of jumbled images. You feel as if you are occupying someone else's body and yet you don't feel separate from it.

A reboot of Savage Tekumel with my own spin on the setting.
Using the classic start of a foreigner newly arrived in Jakalla. (Outsider is a free hindrance assigned by default.) The players are not expected to know anything about the setting and since there will be changes, knowing could be confusing.

Sounds good! Where do we sign up?

Cobbling something together for those interested.

I have some ideas which I'd like to propose.  The catch is that I'm not sure I want to DM them.  I'm really interested in playing in either one though.

First Idea
Rise of the Runelords from Paizo.  This is by far my favorite Adventure Path and I loved GMing it, but I'd really like to play in it for once.  I've also fallen out of love with Pathfinder so would really enjoy giving Savage Worlds a shot at this excellent plot.  The main focus would be on having characters who actualy came from the areas in and around Sandpoint as well as Magnimar so that all of the little political plots and dramas can really be played out.

Second Idea
Space 1889.  I'd love to play a government agent type of character who works for America or Great Britain and is part of a team involved in the dirty politics of the era.  Perhaps even traveling throughout the system putting out fires in a steam punk James Bond or Jack Ryan kind of way.

Third Idea
Low fantasy and low magic setting with lots of grit and very deadly combat where the characters are defending their village or a small boarder fort against both human and inhuman predators.  This would have the lethality of Savage Worlds turned up to the max so that players would think twice about trying to solve everything with their swords.  Main inspirations are Beowulf and Grendel, 13th Warrior, Ironclad, Robin Hood, Braveheart, Kingdom of Heaven, The Eagle, King Arthur, Gladiator ect.

If there is enough interest in one of these ideas, and nobody else is willing to GM them, then I'll think seriously about setting one up myself, but it would be a slow moving game, like two or three GM posts a week or fewer slow.  I look forward to hearing people's thoughts.

I would be willing to run Rise of the Runelords.

there's been a few posts on the peg boards about running that one.  The only bit I remember is that you can cut some encounters, as they are the "earn XP to level" encounters and not necessary for the plot.

Space 1889 I've never played, but I wouldn't mind giving it a shot.

the last reminds me of the Conan story, Beyond the Black River.  could be done with Beasts and Barbarians, or just with the core rules

Come gather if you're interested. Wiglaf gets first dibs.

Cool!  I'm there!

Has anyone ever run a Delta Green game with Savage Worlds?

That should be easy enough to do with Cthuhlu and the various military settings... sounds cool!

Weekend Warriors by 12 to Midnight is Delta Green-ish

Though Agents of Oblivion by Reality Blurs would probably be a better starting point.

Realms of Cthulhu [http://realityblurs.com/wordpress/?page_id=911] was what I was (failing to) thinking of.
There is also Tour of Darkness [http://www.peginc.com/store/tour-of-darkness/], possibly the most modern military setting that I'm aware of.

There is also a ton of (for some reason) WWII Cthulhuoid settings. God do I hate the Nazi-Cthulhu meme. Overdone. Boring.

Here is a random idea.  I'm actually thinking about running this one.

Take Space 1889.  Advance the timeline to the 1960's or later.  Now throw in cold war shenanigans along side the Aliens from Mars and Venus.  Aliens living in slums on Earth.  Earthlings making shady deals in the back rooms of seedy diners on Mars.  Rich tycoons paying millions for relics of advanced tech from the Belt.  All the while the Navies of the various world powers vie to keep the space lanes open and free from smugglers, pirates and terrorists.

How would the events of our history have panned out with Mars and Venus in the picture?  Dough-boys fighting in the trenches of Mars.  Marines forcing a landing on a hot LZ in the middle of alien jungle.  007 facing off against a Dr. Evil's Hill Martian bodyguard.

Does this sound awesome or am I off my rocker?

You could do pacific theater with WWII Cthulhu stuff too.  Players are retaking islands from the Japanese and come across a base among old islander ruins where the locals had had pacts with deep ones.  Now the Japanese forces are making contact with them.

That is right up my alley.
