DMF Campaign Announcement/Question

Yeah also about this I posted again sorry for the long delay, Spring Break took all my time and it was ust alot of fun but terribly busy. I have a question though: Do you guys want to move the campaign here to the Hosted Forums? If so i'll just move my most recent post to an In-game Thread here and create an OOG Thread as well. If not, I've posted and let the game continue. Also, is Dyne really backing out or was that a joke?

I was thinking (even though I'm not in the campaign, thanks to to much school stuff). Is there a way to add a new sub-forum section separate from the general discussion section? We could make a new section devoted to our own GMF campaigns. Anyone who wants to start one would just go in and start a new thread, and anyone who wanted to join in someones campaign could. It would be a great way to playtest ideas, and people not in on the main GMF campaign could join a different one, or even several. Also, you could start up a new thread if you needed to try an idea, and simply ask for X number of volunteers to play test it.

CotDS's idea is brilliant. Assuming that we can open more sub-forums we could have all different types of campaigns going on. And not just campaigns, but personal character arena threads! Hmm, I see this going places....

You'd have to ask YO, BoD.

I'd say let's move the campaign here, along with letting any DMF members start campaigns and bring non-members into those campaigns. However, if they want to post outside of the campaign threads in here, they'd have to register.

Just an idea for publicity's sake.

I agree with moving the game here and having people run games here. What better place to playtest ideas than with other DM's.

By the way, are you looking for more players CE, just thought I'd check, the game seems interesting and wouldn't mind playing in it. I mean it doesn't hurt to ask...I hope.

Add another vote to move the campaign here. I was just about to post in the current thread, but I'll wait to see what the decision is on moving things first.

Also, we will accept a maximum of two more players if you make a character.

Cool. Let me know the character creation rules, such as stat generation, what is allowed and not allowed, starting gold, etc.

Also, what type of charcters are there already? I believe in a balanced party, and will gladly fill in a roll that is needed.

I can get a character done by the weekend. Work and school are in the way.

I'd be really interested in getting in on my first PbP if there's room for a newbie. Ultimately I think I'd like to run one, but I think it'd be better if I played in one or two first so I a better feel for it.

I've read through some of the games in the main room, but I don't think I came across the DMF game.

All right Modmorgan and ChaoEvoker. We’ll have no zombie fights in a public thread. Look at what the last fight did to TSR…

Holly moma! You summoned that!

Looks like you left me no choice, I’m going to pull out the big guns to clean house.

I'll try to give you folks some details so you can get in here and get playing. The original campaign thread is here. You an read what has happened to date.

As for what characters we have, I believe the current list is:

Xen - Gilburtus Albans - Male Human Wizard 1 - Lawful Good
LittleMissKitten - Ariana- Female Elven Monk 1 - Lawful Good
Nightcloak - Arathan Lianolan - Male Moon Elf Cleric 1 - Chaotic Good
derbacher - Morex Kathard - Male Human Ftr1 - Lawful Neutral

Dyne recently said he was pulling out, but we hope to corral him again!
Dyne - John - Male Human Paladin 1 - Lawful Good

We also had Madmorgan and EvilHalfling signed up, but they dropped out as the game was beginning.

The original post with caharacter creation rules is here.

And the dice roller we use is here.

Read the threads and you should be caught up. We have not gotten too far in, and since CE has asked for more players, bring 'em in!

Game on!

@derbarcher

Cool thanks, but i was looking for the specifics on the orignial guidelines, which are back in the first DMF thread i believe. Oh well, a digging I will go.

And I think I will make a rogue.
(Another edit)- how many points for point buy? 32?
And is gold max starting or do we roll?

hehe, I'm just a curious guy.

Oh and one more thing. Just thought I'd suggest it. There is another Dice Roller that I like very well, especially for rolling stats.

As I understood from the whole deal, each sub-forum entitles additional costs, which seem to be the same. Contact Morrus for more details.

If you have to move the old campaign threat to this place, you have to contact one of the high admins (like Piratecat). We only have jurisdiction (sp?) over the GMF forums. To contact them, go to the Meta Forum.
