Thanks all. Great to harvest so many good suggestions. Appreciated!

Thanks all. That's given me a fantastic leg up. Witchcraft and Secret Societies of Rural England sounds very interesting. As does Cunning folk : life in the era of practical magic. I did search through DrivethruRPG for the Witch class first of all and there was a massive array of...

Hi. I am wanting to run an OSR game set in a medieval authentic England only with fell beasts and malevolent spirits. I'm planning to use elements of the Dark Albion setting (Dark Albion: The Rose War) alongside Graeme Davis' Vaesen: Mythic Britain & Ireland (Vaesen: Mythic Britain & Ireland)...

I want to start running my own games! An Advanced Fighting Fantasy 'City of Thieves' game for my young nephew and niece is going to be first up. I had lined up to run B10 Night's Dark Terror on Foundry soon, with a long-standing group of RPG buddies. But that's on hold because our group has...

I really like Foundry. Played a few games on it (e.g. Alien RPG, WFRP, DCC) and it looks great and runs very well. Got a subscription of my own now so I will be able to host some games of my own. I just need to set up a server - planned to use Molten Hostings. But I'd swap this out for a real...

HI, I'm based in the UK and would love to find a friendly group (UTC 0 or quite close to it) for online gaming. I'd love to play DCC Lankhmar or Dolmenwood. Or possibly adventures in the Old World? I can play Wed- Fri or Saturday evenings (monthly) and I'd be happy to chat to see if we would be...

DCC - i agree. Blades in the Dark works very well as a single volume too

Great news! I was only listening to an interview with Sandy Peterson today and he was saying Japanese women aged 18-35 make up the largest demographic of players of the game worldwide. And he said that CofC outsells D&D by quite a margin there. I think it is brillaint to hear Chaosium have...

Yes. I've been disappointed for a long time that Goodman Games could not get the rights to put DCC Lanhkmar onto Foundry. One day I hope to run it in person, but running it on a VTT without it all included? No thanks. I'm told this is why it is so hard to find an online game of Lankhmar. I know...

Yes. I wish that is what they had done instead. It has been my firm expectation it would happen - especially in light of the emergence, some might say dominance, of simpler rule sets in recent years (e.g. growth of OSR, Blades in the Dark etc). After Cubicle 7 completed their run. But now this...

If you're right about the heroic quality that emerges from that system then I agree it would not suite WFRP, where players often start with a band of miscreants and vagabonds. And I love that aspect of the game

Thanks for this tip. I've not heard of it before. If I find a good system then I'm very likely to run a campaign in the Old World. But sadly, if I don't I won't. So I'll definitely check that system out.

Now that really interests me. I'd love to run and Old World game but I'd need a simpler, faster ruleset. Don't know if this will system will be sufficiently streamlined to suit me but I want to look that now. Thanks.

Does anyone know anything about the rules Cubicle 7 are going to use for this new The Old World Game? Reason I ask, I love the setting and the approach of having multiple professions, including lost of miscreant low life types. But I find the 4th Ed rules very complex, crunchy and slow. I have...

I do love the Old World. And I love the maps they did in first few years of WFRP 4th (Andy Law). There's some real quality there. I played a campaign in Ubersriek, then played Enemy Within up to Middenheim. But the GM ran out of steam when running that chapter and he jacked it in. Very demanding...
