Hi all, I'm planning to start up a new group in Northern Virginia (centered in West Springfield, but with some possibility of it being centered in Reston as one of my friends who lives there will be playing). I'm a new offline DM. I've run a few play by posts, and done one session of...

First placeholder post to gather information in it: Previous Threads: Interlude: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?337111-Legacy-of-the-Silver-Dragon-Day-2-%28Interlude%29/page22&p=6292448#post6292448

The day dawns, somewhat cloudy and with the threat of rain in the air. Rain tends to come as clouds move over the area as the land rises up towards the mountain nearby. Loggers grumble a bit as they head out, knowing it might be a miserable day to work. The miners simply grin at their fellow...

Greetings all. I have been running a slow and leisurely PbP, the beginning of which can be seen here: OOC: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?310155-Legacy-of-the-Silver-Dragon-%28Swords-and-Wizardry-Core-4th-Ed%29 IC...

So, this is an age old topic (if there had been online forums back in OD&D it probably would have been one of the first threads). In a nutshell, wizards' power increases quadratically while fighters' power increases linearly. I admit however, that I have little experience in this because most...

Greetings all. I've begun to get the urge to do some old school role playing, and Dungeon Crawl Classics looks like it could be a blast. I live near the Bourne Bridge (Monument Beach area) on Cape Cod, and could host. The best times will actually be weekday evenings, likely Tuesday-Thursday...

So, I've gotten into a discussion regarding PC deaths in RPGs with a friend who is the normal GM of my group. I won't say where I come down on the issue (and it's far more nuanced than this simple poll will allow for) right away, but hoping to spark some discussion. So, where do you fall on...

So, this is driving me nuts.. About a week ago, I ran across Hackmaster again, and was browsing through KenzerCo's website. There I discovered Aces & Eights. One link led to another, and I did a search on the game rulebooks for A&8, but one of the links I clicked on was for Amazon and it took...

Anyone else interested in this? I downloaded the PDF after preordering the Player's Handbook. Also have the Hacklopedia on the way. The one thing that sort of held me back on this was the setting. I had the Kalamar D&D 3.5 sourcebooks but found them too bland and poorly written (with...

Greetings all, I am running a campaign called Legacy of the Silver Dragon. It uses Swords and Wizardry (4th edition) as the rule set and is designed as an 'old school' sort of game. We have a player who had to leave the game and I've taken over his character, a fighter, as an NPC. The...

This post will be used for a recap + NPC list to provide a reference so far... To be filled out soon. Please start the new day's activities whenever you like. NPCs: Gregof: Militia Leader Jorgen: General Store’s owner Berta: Older woman, bought pearl berries in the general store. Sal: Old...

Use this thread to post your characters...

Background: Five years ago, the ruler and protector of Ascadar, a large town in a valley next to a solitary mountain, disappeared. Eliaesel was a young silver dragon who had lived for centuries in the mountain – an ancient, dead volcano – the caldera at the top from which she would fly. She...

This is a new PbP based on the Swords and Wizardy Core (4th edition) ruleset. I aim to get started between next weekend (August 20th) and the end of the month, depending on how things flow. Here you can find both the free PDF, and the print edition of the 4th edition rules (if you decide to...

So, awhile back I ran a PbP on another board and generally enjoyed it. Things died due to RL issues both for myself and some players. I'm interested in starting up another PbP, but this time instead of going with a somewhat rules heavy game (as the Midnight/D3.5 game was), I want to switch to an...

Greetings! I'm a member of a four player group (including the DM) on lower Cape Cod (Falmouth/Mashpee/Hyannis). We are looking for one or two more roleplayers who are interested in serious, adult themed roleplaying. It is likely that our group will prefer 3rd Edition (3.5), but we do plan to...

Greetings all. Welcome back to the campaign. I'm going to create a few placeholder posts for things like NPCs, information the party learns, links to the other threads, etc.

What had gone before The party, comprised of: Evarus and Armigil, two Dorns Keelosh, a Dworg Morthik, a Dwarf Gac, a Gnome had all found themselves on board an Elven ship via different routes, but all had in common the desire to fight the Izrador, the Shadow in the North in some fashion...

My first request here is please do not post to this topic until I finish my introductory posts. Thanks! Also, I have a group already more or less ready to go, so at the moment I will not be taking new players. However, I plan to allow 'guest NPCs' down the road. More on that later. Now, for...

I know they still have a website, but the last update is over a year old. Anybody know if they're still planning to come up with more material in their Sun and Scale world? It's one of those settings that on the surface isn't overly different but has the twist of the players being involved in...
