Posting Necromancy

While searching for my campaign blogs from FFG’s forum for fellow LF writer I realised that they have closed a whole lot of thread (or they’ve just gone with some update on the forums). I can still see my posts so I’ll try to save them or more precisely the meaningful ones.

One of these things was “Adventure Seeds” – small ideas of scenarios that we started to gather at Hammerzeit (now long gone). I’ll try to fish them out as they are exactly the kind of inspiration I decided to build this site on. They can be found HERE under Inspiration > Adventure Seeds.

I also decided to include our gaming logs on this site (when ever I get the change to add them). If You have gaming logs that you’re writing somewhere around the seas of internet please let me know and I’ll either link them or copy/paste them here (with Your permission of course).

edit: As I just went through my emails I noticed a message with complete stats for Reik Eels. So there’s now a new page under Downloads called simple WFRP3 that’ll be used to host all kinds of WFRP3 material.

Hsss!

Don’t tell anyone but the Family is going to make an offer to you in August…

It going to be a great tool for all GM and certainly inspirational. I had the change to do some proof-reading and editing and I can assure you that his kind of dedication to hobby and game can only make it better.

edit: I would like to add that the sneak peak is NOT made by me. Only served with permission.

Finding it hard to find time for adventures? There’s a great alternative to live session as playing online gets easier with Gitzman’s (you know him from his enormous map project) online tutoring. This was published at FFG’s forum:

Hey dudes,

So i know lots of people have been inquriing as to how to play remotely with their pals.  I’ve been using MapTools for a while now which can really help those long distance games with a shared digital game board.

I will be running an introductory session on how to use MapTools and more specifically, how to use the Gtizman’s WFRP3 Ruleset for MapTools this weekend, Saturday, April 30th at 11am PST (GMT -8).

In order to participate you will need:

  • MapTools v1.3b86 available for free here.
  • JAVA 6 or higher available for free here.
  • Skype available for free here.

If you want to run your own games, you will also need Gitzman’s WFRP3 MapTools Ruleset avaialble atwww.GitzmansGallery.com.

If you are interested in checking it out, please shoot me a contact request on Skype at “jburke.design“.

I will provide instructions for logging into MapTools, running it, playing with the tokens and macros, and maybe a bit of designing maps.

I look forward to seeing you guys this weekend!

One-sheet Challenge for all GMs

The deal maker for me with the Game Master’s Toolkit were the Episodes included. I’m not big on large written scenarios as they tend to trail of and include a huge number of features I don’t need and make it impossible to run them without alteration. The Episodes however give nice piece of adventure to be expanded and used as needed.

Therefor I’d like to challenge you all to make (at least) one one-sheet.

One-sheets should be just that – an episode in one sheet that can be used as a small encounter, cameo, adventure or even an campaign.

I’m “pro-all editions” I would like to see one-sheets that are stripped from game data (necessary rolls, stat lines etc.) as I believe GMs can decide when needed.

I can also promise to put all one-sheets to be downloaded from my blog Daily Empire (cursed linking isn’t working so check my sig.) if they’re send to me at doc_cthulhu (at) hotmail (dot) com or I’m given the permission to add them to the list. I’m not however in a position to promise anything more than some publicity and (hopefully) a large number of one-sheets as a price for doing this.

A new sub-page for DOWNLOADS was created for one-sheets. You can find my first one-sheet Smugglers in the Sewers there as an pdf and in open office format.

The thread for discussion can be found from FFG’s official forum.
