Trevalon - definitely the old style of scheduling. And I'm glad the Gameday fits into your Summer of Freedom. Quickbeam - It's nothing personal, I'm just not sure if I'm going to run Cthulhu at this Gameday. If I do, it would be conditional on the return of Liz and DUDE!!!!! JD - Nothing...

Looks to be shaping up to be a good crew, even with some regulars not being able to make it. I can't wait to start planning what to play there! :) As long as this is the planning thread, anyone have any suggestions or changes for how the Gameday is planned and run? I'll definitely be doing...

It's the 21st this year. We took our chances that more people would have a conflict with Father's Day than the Solstice. Keep us posted! Matt

Party!!!! Yeah, there are no details yet, but you can usually count on a nice after-Gameday gathering! Keep your eyes on the threads and we'll get some concrete details together as we get closer! Thanks, Matt BTW - State Champoinships for Air Hockey? How cool is that?!?!?

Sounds like you're off to a great start - especially with where you're heading! Any chance you'll run it at the next Gameday? :) Later, Matt

Quickbeam - congratulations on your sister's wedding. I'm glad you'll be able to make it - of course, now that you're running Call of Cthulhu, there's no way I can run for you again :) Mark - I know!!!! I am so ready to start planning some games to play or run, but can't make up my mind...

Well, kids, it's looking like we're going to stick with June 21st. Mark your calendars and watch the boards - we'll start planning around the end of the month! As always, feel free to drop me a line if you want to pitch in! Thanks, Matt

Sounding like the 21st is a good day... Let me pose another question before we decide for sure - How would the 14th be for everybody? The 15th is Father's Day, so I'm curious what kind of effect this would have on turnout. Thanks, Matt

Re: Re: Chicago Gameday Planning Thread Yup, my ability to read a calendar is exactly why we're voting on the day :) It will not be a combined Game Day like the last one. I will post about it at RPG.net, but cannot devote the time to organize for both sites. If you're volunteering...

April has rolled around and it's time to start planning the next big Chicago Gameday!!! As promised when Mark retired from running these, I would like to keep to the same schedule Mark had established - February, June, and November. The philosophy remains the same; the Gameday stands as a...

Mark: Welcome back and be stong, brother. If there's anything you need, you know I've got your back. All the best, Matt

I had e-mailed Chaosium about Dreamlands late last year and they said that it would not be d20. Later, Matt

OtherWorld Creations is planning a new edition of Chill which will be both an update of the Mayfair version and d20. Hex Games is planning a new edition of M-Force, which was origianally released last year using a variation of their QAGS game, as a d20 game. Later, Matt

Re: The cheerleaders are here! Technically, the "cheerleader" would be me, since I started the thread over on the LA board. -Matt

A lot of people said similar things about the Buffy RPG before it was released - that the concept is based around one character, the mythology is too limited to one setting, etc. Eden did a great job of opening the game up to center around non-Buffy characters and non-Sunnydale settings. I'm...

I didn't see anyone else posting this here, so I have to chime in - Eden Studios announced today they are releasing Army of Darkness games (an RPG and a non-collectible card game) in October!!! After the fantastic job Eden did capturing the spirit of the Buffy show in their Buffy RPG, I can't...

That rocks the stuff that rocks on toast! Anyone have any info at all on this book? Thanks, Matt

There was a core system that was used in each of the games. You created a core character that was then tailored to the specific Amazing Engine game you were playing. Any experience gained by that genre character would then be translated back to the core character - thus making any future...

I wrote a review here: http://www.rpg.net/news+reviews/reviews/rev_6763.html In the review, I purposely avoided comparisons to other games and tried to stick with "just the facts". LA's system is rules-light and flexible, featuring percentile-based action resolution. Character creation is a...

Re: Re: Re: RPGnet/ENWorld Gamedays Allan, sorry, but I never did get an e-mail from you. Yahoo! may have lost it for me. I'll drop you a line. As for the rest of you - see you in June! Keep your eyes on the boards for the next Chicago Gameday! Thanks, Matt
