Geek thoughts for the next few months.
I'm jonesing a bit for some role-playing. I've got at least one outlet in the next little while, and depending on how much i shanghai [info]shlemkevich into picking up a little Twilight 2000 again i should have some outlets for this desire.

Upcoming for the end of September is the Phantasm Game Convention in Peterborough. I'm running the larp on saturday night again, and it looks like i'm going to be running a (with player co operation) high political conclave for the night. Called by a (to be determined) Justicar in the City of New York, the plots and politicking of the vampires of the city, and the world should be pretty interesting. I'm setting up plots and plot seeds right now, but those interested in playing, should, as always preregister by emailing congame@witchscauldron.net and let me know what you'd like to play ( High Policitcal, Low Political etc, and choice of 1,2 or 3 clans. If you have an idea for a character please send it in as well.) There are no garantees that anyone will get their request, but i will endeavour to fulfill them, as numbers and plots allow.

Other than that, i'm vacillatating between wanting to run either Paranoia, or in consultation with a couple of people, a DnD(3.5) game set in the Forgotten Realms, the City of Splendors, Waterdeep, to be precise. Having spoken to some people who, despite having played in the FR for a long time, have never played in Waterdeep. I'm thinking a relatively lower level start (2-3) this gives a bit of space for competence... another post may follow this. I'm tempted to run this on RPOL, or figure out something else to play it on, or set something up that would enable us to play it on tabletop, if we got everyone together. If you are interested in this please comment.



I've still got my Heroscape terrain to try out with Battletech, but that requires people coming over, so i think we need to find a time for a gaming weekend again. [info]morgandria has talked about having one around her birthday, but i'm not sure if that would work out given timing and shortness of notice. The other option would be sometime in October, or November (for my birthday maybe). If you are one of the usual suspects ([info]shlemkevich, [info]otherjeff, [info]jlindsay, [info]acornya, [info]arirthos) Let me know when you would be interested in getting together for games, or if sometime towards the end of august, or labour day weekend would be good for you.

The other thing i've thought about is getting MegaMek working on a number of computers and playing either a tournement of some sort, or do a large battle using the Megamek system. It's not quite the same as pushing minatures around on a table, but it's pretty close, and it doesn't involve me fixing the minatures i've got kicking around, as well as painting them up again.

August is bad for me, September is not good either with all the family stuff I need to do. October might not be that bad but closer to the end of the month than the start of it.

As for T2K, yes I'm interested in starting it up again, I still have all my reference information and tools that I made. Geoff is interested again as well. If OJ is intersted we'll need to find an alternative to RPOL though I think, unless the issues have been resolved (I know not of that).

3.5 D&D would be neat and wouldn't really say no, depending on format. Never played in WD before so it would be totally new for me.

August is not ideal, but I could try and move some things around. The fall? Probably better.

I'm around, and accessible. Don't know that I still have MegaMek installed, though. RPoL is actually an option, if that's what people want to work with and want me involved; I managed to inherit an account, and the folks running the show either haven't gotten around to kicking me, or just plain don't know. Either way, I'm around.

I don't have time of an evening for long game sessions anymore, I'm afraid, so play by post is the best that I can offer.
