Re: OOC Conversation 3

No active rpol games for like over a year now but I did recently create an eve online account named after Zazan.

Still mostly solo play and it's not a direct conversion but I've been mostly happy with thd decision.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Well, if you're happy with a decision it usually is a good one :P

Tried Eve Online for a brief while, but it was too much of a time sink -- i'd rather RP :P

Re: OOC Conversation 3

That’s a nice distraction. I did the same, Diana. Just too much time to make it fun enough.

I have been thinking about this game and the fun roleplay we had. I hate to do this, but if I created a game and ran it, who might be interested?

Re: OOC Conversation 3

I would. Recently had a game that ended so i've got a free slot, so to speak.

What kind of game are you thinking of?

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Haven't heard about either of them but i've danced that dance before, so no preference here.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Setting and the roles the characters take in shaping it is more important to me than the system mechanics used.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Both are RP and collaborative. Cortex is modular and dice pool based. UW is d6 based.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

It might be nice to know whether your intention is to make a large-scale, fleet scenarios based game vis and more tactically unit level kind of game. Different characters will be more involved in different levels of function. Trying to cross all of them together tends to leave people feeling like their character doesn't fit in the game very well unless you go back and forth quickly. That is a tough thing to do.

That said, I've played more than 50 table top systems in my nearly 40 years worth of tabletop role-playing. I'm willing to learn something new. I like the concept that was going on here. I would be more than happy to join another game even on loosely similar lines. I just may have to ask for a bit of help.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

We can discuss it in the game. Just let me know who you are when you RTJ.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

You know, funny timing. I haven't logged in for a long time and I was just here to check some notes I made in another game and I saw your posts. I had no idea you kept talking after the game. My life circumstances have shifted significantly in the past few years and I found myself reminiscing about this game.

I'm not 100% sure I can, but I'd be willing to give a continuation a go on this game. I don't know how long it'll last, but I miss it. I'd understand if you didn't want to continue though.
Let me know your thoughts.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

This game, that game, whatever works really.

If you're not 100% sure you could continue i'd lean towards the other game, though there wouldn't be anything stopping you from joining it as a player, if you want to?

Re: OOC Conversation 3

It's almost an echo, but I'm greedy. I say leave this one up and work on it slowly as you please and join the other one as a player to help refresh your batteries.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

I think we had a lot of places to go with this game, we probably don't need to do it all in a full detail level, but a few key events with focus can help.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Would you want me to recruit a couple more players at this point? I can't say for sure who would come back.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Trying for more players always seems like a reasonable choice around here.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Alright. I'll put up an ad this week and re-read the last few thread so I can remember where we were at and then figure out where we're going next.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Assuming we resume this, what would you like to see out the game? Do you want to continue in psuedo-episodic format, following your naval careers or would you prefer something else?

Re: OOC Conversation 3

I think, for me, I would like something along the lines of what we have been doing. Plying the stars as a squadron and figuring out exactly what is going on.

Re: OOC Conversation 3

Yup, same here.

On the subject of ship designs, if what we designed is too powerful i wouldn't mind redesigning it if it would benefit the game. As proud as i am of our little Pocket Cruiser, i'd be fine with tuning it down if it would otherwise unbalance encounters to the point that anything capable of harming it would one-hit the PCs in Patrol Boats.
