The Reciprocal Gaming Exchange (RGE)
Posted: Thu Jan 23, 2014 3:17 pm
By popular (can popular be 3 people?) request, here is Nagoyahammer's Reciprocal Gaming Exchange thread!
The Idea: Gamers like certain games. Pet games, if you will. But gamers cannot always find other players to play with. By virtue of the RGE you get to play your games with other kind souls who are willing to play your game. In exchange, you will play their games. Obviously, tabletop mini games, boardgames, rpgs are fine, provided the other player(s) are up for it. There's no necessity, either, to play an accepted version of a certain game. Home brewed craziness is fine between consenting adults.
Simply post below, and tell us all which games you would really like to play. It's hoped that others will read through them, see who we can help out, maybe even find some games we are curious about. Times and dates to play can be organised below or by PM. It would be nice to see if the idea is a success however, so feedback or planning here would be appreciated by us all if you're willing to share it.
When you play together, you should:-
A) Know the rules you want to play.
B) Have all the necessaries ready for your game - faction minis, dice, regular or peculiar. Terrain if needed might be shared between you.
C) Guarantee to play the other players game of choice, perhaps set an acceptable time limit, as it may be best to complete both games on the same day to keep everyone happy. Your funeral.
D) Enjoy yourself!
That's about it. We don't want to be too prescriptive here. Help each other to play the games they want to play, and do so with good grace.
Hats in the ring, Ladies and Gentlemen...
