Hi folks,
I need a little help from those of you in long term campaigns. Two years or more is long term in my book. I'm starting to fade a bit and lose my will to game It's not too ill-timed as my Track & Field season is about to start. Previously, however, I always made plans to somehow keep my campaign going over the Spring, but this time I am really welcoming the excuse to suspend the campaign.
I have good solid players now and if I could just get enthused I know they would stay loyal to the campaign. The question is how to stay enthused?
In my younger days campaigns would last as long as the players were around and willing. I had a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay campaign that lasted for seven years for example. I may not have had enough time at different points, but I never grew tired of gaming or the campaign.
Now, I need some help from veterans. How do you keep your multi-year campaign going?
For those of you thinking, "He just should take a break." I agree to a point. However, I think if I take a break we could be talking years here not weeks or months. Plus, it was so darn hard to get a decent group together after my brother left, and now I finally have another one going I hate to throw it all away.
Thanks for any instructive advice you can lend me!
