Campaigns you want to play (or run)

[thol]

a hardcore sci-fi campaign, on the slightly dark and gritty side, ala traveller, but with a little bit of warhammer 40K thrown in.

a Cybergen campaign, run in a cinematic style, with flashbacks and cutscenes, escaped intellegent android kids, an adult businessman villian, along with a few friendly edgrunners who are always too busy on missions when the kids are in trouble.

a childlike fantasy campaign where you play either kids or anthropormorphic creatures and have to cross the Muckfrog Swamp and go through the Fallen Wood to reach the castle of the great wizard thrickwindle for help in getting home.

Huh. You mean Barsoom? Hee.

LOL, Barsoom is actually very similar to what I've been tinkering with for a few years independently. I came up with the brilliant? idea of replacing non-humans with just orcs and "planetouched" style races, and have the different bloodlines put a class-war thing into a WHFRP/X-files/Call of Cthulhu style game set around something that looks like the ancient Lake Bonneville and features mammoths, saber-tooth cats and all kinds of other exotic stuff. The more I looked at Barsoom, the more I thought we must have been D&D twins separated at birth!

Iron Kingdom SO completely kicks my butt. I'm so in love with that setting I don't know what to say. My wife just last night mentioned she'd like to try running a campaign. "Something steampunky, I think." "Iron Kingdoms?" says I, shaking like a leaf.

So I may get to play in an Iron Kingdoms campaign in the very near future. Hurrah!

Iron Kingdoms is probably the only campaign setting barring my homebrews, that I would actually be happy running. I can't find anything wrong with it, the more I look at it. I haven't picked up Lock and Load yet, though, more's the pity.

Joshua - First, I just read about your gaming plight. I'm part of a really good online group, look me up (AIM: ultradaveo), and you can totally get in on some gaming.

And as far as what I want to play/run? BLACK COMPANY d20!

Oh my god yes.

1) Swashbuckling. Once Skull&Bones (Green Ronin Publishing) comes out, it's all piratey from there on out. I've even got a complicated plot with treatchery, wenches and murder all planned out

In-deed!

I so want to run a game where the party is a bunch of pirates. In fact, I've wanted to since I first played Sid Meier's Pirates! all those years ago. Who doesn't love pirates? I just don't know whether to go 7th Sea or d20...

I'd love to paly a planescape campaign again, perhaps even as a player for once

Also I've got this great homebrew campaign world buzzing about in my head which I'd like to put some players through some time but I'm way to busy at the moment, also after the summer I go to University and have to leave my current play group, It'll have to go on pause for a bit

Exalted. An EXTREMELY epic campaign of Exalted.

Also, Shadowrun, and Cyberpunk 2020.

After that, the Zelda D20 project that I'm helping with the Gazeteer would come up.

Also, I'm gonna run my own modern horror setting, Triume, in Nathal's system as part of my playtest.

And all 3 Deadlands games(Weird West, Hell on Earth, and Lost Colony).

And X-Crawl.

Anybody wanna sponsor me? Gary Gygax, will you adopt me?

Aside from that, I want to run a Feng Shui/Call of Cthulhu/Charlie's Angels sort of campaign. High-flying wuxia action with creepy crawlies and tough-as-nails-yet-somehow-still-oh-so-glamourous heroines. I don't know why but it sticks in my head.

I'm trying to think of a reason this WOULDN'T stick in your mind!

And failing...

1. A modern game where the players play Vampire Hunters while being stylish and kicking ass ala Hellsing
2. Sepulchrave's Story Hour
3. A Dark Sun Game

I just bought Conan the Barbarian on DVD and really have an urge to run a game set in that setting. I have also always wanted to run a Norse or Celtic setting type game and am fighting the urge (not very hard mind you) to buy Slaine. Can anyone point me in the direction of some good novels of Norse or Celtic tales? I am interested in both fiction and non-fiction.

I'm gonna have to echo the sentiments of the others who are interested in seeing a d20 version of Shadowrun. I love that combination of magic & tech, with Big Business behind everything.
