What games are you thinking of playing? What games do you want others to run?

What I'm thinking about bringing

Post by EnricPDX » June 3rd, 2015, 6:51 am

Into the Odd: A super streamlined, quick-playing, classless variant of OD&D, with an emphasis on exploration and clever play and weird, arcane technology. [https://rpggeek.com/rpg/23882/odd]

Jedi Blackbird: Johnzo's Lady Blackbird hack, with lightsabers and a Hutt and a junk planet. What's not to like? [https://rpggeek.com/rpgitem/112535/jedi-blackbird]

Kagematsu: I haven't played in a couple years, but this is one of my favorite games. I probably won't schedule it, but if you want to play and we can work out its particular requirements, come find me! [https://rpggeek.com/rpg/2985/kagematsu]

Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: Perhaps for an early morning or late night slot? A board game in a pretty loose sense of the word - the play materials consist of a map of London, a directory of addresses, at least one issue of a fictional newspaper, and a case book with a description of a crime and available clues - SHCD is a surprisingly immersive experience. The last time we played, we found ourselves pacing around our kitchen table, pouring drinks as we eyed the clock and wiped sweat from our brows, debating every detail as we tried to construct a solution to the mystery we'd been presented with.

Those all sound great. I'm particularly keen to try Into the Odd.

I was planning on bringing Into The Odd myself. If there seems to be enough interest, I'll schedule a game too, otherwise I'll sub it out for one of several other ideas I have right now.

One related idea is a non-funnel Dungeon Crawl Classics game with pre-gens. The pitchforks and farm animals and 2 hit point villagers are completely awesome, but it might be fun to show off the the spell & mighty deeds, etc. side of the game. It'd want good reference sheets for a new audience so it's a fair amount of prep...

I'd be super into playing Kagematsu!

I'd love to play Into the Odd if another game of that is scheduled.
