Munchkin d20 PBEM

Well the time has finally come to start the Munchkin PBEM.

I have openings for one additional player (max of 5 in the game), and will allow more if any of the people who have asked to play so far back out.

The power level in this game will be extreme, so if you don't like gnomes with chainsaws run on grain alcohol you should probably stay away.

But never fear you will be challenged by the amazing potted plant of doom.

If you are interested let me know, but hurry as I am sure the spots will fill fast.

Scott reports that he will have character creation finished this week end for the long-awaited Munchkin d20 pbem.

 

Kingdoms of Kalamar PBEM

In the Kingdoms, Eldarin defeats the rear guard of the Orc raiding party. The group reassembles and the decision is made to pursue the fleeing orcs. What will they find when they reach the main raiding party, and will they reach them before they get to Eralion's keep?

d20 Superheroes: Mutants and Masterminds

Much fun and throwing of large objects was had by all! None of the Bob Squad showed their strange, misshapen faces, much to Greg's relief. The game lasted well into the night and nobody wanted to stop, so it must've been good, and the consensus is that the Mutants and Masterminds system is one of the best Superhero RPG systems available. I'd guess we'll be seeing more of this one.

[Oh, and Greg? We're onto you. No more will we believe you when you say the adventure isn't in your Champions universe! -- Bopper Bob]


For Open Gaming this June I am offering to run Mutants & Masterminds the D20 Superhero RPG (I know, what a surprise). This takes place outside of my normal grim and gritty superhero universe…Yes I did learn my lesson after the Bob Squad incident in Four Color to Fantasy. A shame the Emperor destroyed that planet testing one of his super-weapons and then eliminating any trace of the plant from the imperial archives. ;-D

[Editor's Note: Actually, the Emperor destroyed a papier mache duplicate of the planet hastily constructed by the Bob Squad to save their world. Yay, Bob Squad!]

This adventure takes place in Freedom City, Massachusetts. A rash of museum burglaries has made its way toward Freedom City. Heroes from the other cities have been unable to catch the thief or thieves and all signs point to Freedom City being the next target in this crime wave. Can our heroes rise to the challenge where others have failed? We’ll find out in June…

Freedom City's finest will be available or custom heroes can be made before hand by contacting me at wilcoxgregory@netscape.net and we can set up a time and place to create him/her.

-Greg

 

Notes from Kalvin, 10/29

Vedui!

Carnage by the Lake ran this past week end, and I'd say the new venue was a big success. I have no complaints about the gaming space, the accommodations, the food, or the hot water. We got to spend some time and/or play a few games with Bill C, Scott L, Tom M, Sean, Patty, Erik, Michele, Hilary, Gaylord... I'm probably forgetting someone; had a chance to harrass Evil Jay just a bit; and caught up with some of the Carnage folks.

Saturday night we watched the funniest movie in the history of movies... The Gamers. I have it on good authority that the purple ninja is a recurring character; he shows up in all their movies. The only thing we need to do better is coordinate the time slots of our games so that we don't have to either A) miss each others' games, or B) cannibalize each others' pool of players. I know how disappointing it is to drop fifty hours (or more) into a convention game, only to have it not run for lack of players.

Meanwhile, on to some news of the Known Spheres...

The HackMasters of BlackHawk return to the Temple of Horrendous Doom this Saturday, November 1 (5 pm) at Calvin Carter's house in Essex.

EverQuest d20 resumes on Saturday, November 15 (noon) at my house here in froglok-infested Monkton. Gregbert, this means you... let me know if you're going to make the trip.

The company of the hammership StarVoyager prepares to investigate a ruined cyclopean cloud-castle deep within the air-world they have discovered in the fringes of AElospace (part of the dreaded Oard Empire). Follow the adventures of the StarVoyager at http://www.rdinn.com/show_topic.asp?which=1514

The expedition from DreamHammer Castle hangs suspended in a Rope Trick, over a churning mass of lizard kings and giant insectoid monsters... as their spell's duration is about to run out. Can they escape to fight another day? Stay tuned.

Having defeated the fiendish creature behind the magic doors Schalk, Turgon, Taran, and Ipslore turn their attention to looting the room. Wait! Did you hear that? Hmmm...

Deep in the Proving Grounds, our "heroes" rest and recuperate in the relative safety of the LichLord's domain. Merin lives once again and has promised to repair da Zombie as soon as she is able. Then, I suppose, it's back out to the dungeon to hunt down that Pit Fiend... and resume the search for the Sacred Feather of Victory. Bart, please LMK if you're still with us...

In Gary Jackson's MiddleWurld, the Fellowship of the Die must face a trio of Giant Spyder Magi as they try to rest from their epic battle with the Vile Flesh Hunters. Shuganaki Tso has returned to life, but he will remain mostly dead all day. Poor Prince Alfred of Teer (rightfully called "the Unlucky") remains thoroughly dead, and the Fellowship must decide whether to seek heroic methods of revivifying him... or to consign him to his AfterLife.


In the Kingdoms of Kalamar, our brave band of heroes has gathered up its loot and heads back to town, the better to gear up just a little better before braving the unknown lower levels of Eralion's ruined keep.

Veteran DM Tom Mechler has recently begun his first play by e-mail game, The Dungeon Delve, at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DungeonDelve/?yguid=161893831 As soon as our intrepid adventurers buy any last moment supplies (and maybe place a bet on their own chances of survival), we will enter the Black Hole for the first time.


Black Knight Comics and Bakuretsu Con will sponsor yet another Game Day at the Best Western in South Burlington this January... exact date yet to be determined. Check out www.bakuretsucon.org for details, and I will post the date here as soon as it becomes available.


Battle with the zombies (et.al.) in the warrens beneath Tragar's End resumes the week of Thanksgiving. I'm looking forward to seeing the Poultney group, and Navhar's looking forward to facing the zombie master... and splitting his skull to his knees.

Hey, that's about all for today. Pesky work thing and all. Don't forget to check out the aurora tonight. Third biggest magnetic storm on record hits today at about noon (ET).

All Take Care,

Kalvin
