Yeah sorry to get on the defense about it. I understand now. I guess I lost at dungeon lords yesterday and drank too much coffee.

We have another system running now on the Saturday in March, Shadowrun. It's sci fi. We play tested i t yesterday and Jesse is going to be the GM, it's pretty cool as your character can use cyberware and have access to the matrix. It's fun to play a sci fi that was written in the 80s as most of the technology in it is fact now instead of fiction.

Glad to hear you are going to make it.

I do have a webcam yes, and a headset and pants so never say never. Perhaps we can get a game in some time.
Forget about yesterday, don't worry about tomorrow because all that matters is today.

I'm still waiting for my Titanium Bone Lacing and Combat Spurs...... :cry:

Which version of Shadowrun are you using? I have played 3rd and 4th and I have a copy of the 4th edition rules on my shelf somewhere.

Jus if you can hop in to the Gamma World game for a trail run then we can move on to other games once we know we can do an Online game...

Here's a good one if you can't find players or can't leave the house. Play by post and e mail rules for horror rpg,
pdf avaliable

Not requiring the usual face-to-face aspect of most traditional RPGs, the game caters for people who find it hard to maintain a regular gaming group due to time commitments, or for those who don’t have any fellow gamers in their neighbourhood.

Don't forget the pants though.



We played 3rd edition Shadowrun.

Players, a DM and copies of the rulebook for all concerned surely?

I cant speak for ToD, but that comment would put me off running a game. :(

@ Prime.
Glad you are not the DM then :D ... I really just want to get in to a game :D I am not really to concerned how or who joins or what game system is played... Jus and I got our Gamma World Characters made thanks to Moyashimaru we are keen to play... who knows what will happen with it.

No reason to come in to our gaming group to sew weeds seeds in our rice patty :)

If TOD is not up for it I can run The Rifts RPG... I have the main book and heaps of other books.. so that should be good enough... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

@ any one interested in RPGing over Skype... we have had 2 days of dice roller and skype talk... it works great... :D :D Join us if you can. Ashmie you have got me interested in RPGs again... I will now have very little time for painting... but that is fine.. :D :D
