Afternoon SW Game

If the afternoon SW game ends up not happening (I haven't heard from the GM yet either) there's always d20 Modern. >

Joshua and I both picked up copies yesterday (I'm loving it!!)

Anyone know how the metra trains work? I've never taken the train in the 5 years that I've lived in the area.

My wife has a sudden obligation, and while we have taken care of the babysitter, I need to figure out transportation. I live in Lake in the Hills and figure I can go from the Crystal Lake station to Mt. Prospect. Radio tells me that the weekend rate is $5?

I know, check the metra website right?

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Looks like the 8:00 AM out of Crystal Lake will get you to Mount Prospect at 8:37 AM - But I'd double check it if I were you

metrarail.com

Since you're relatively close, it might be cheaper than $5 to buy a round trip ticket as opposed to the weekend pass.

Yeah, Modern rocks.

I'll give the GM the benefit of the doubt and assume he just hasn't checked the boards (or his e-mail) all week but it still planning on running the game. But I might whip up half a dozen pregens and an adventure I could run without tons of preperation in Modern (don't own Star Wars revised, sorry.) Just in case.

Ill bring a few dozen Krispy Kremes to go with that Oberweiss Egg Nog!

Again, I'll reiterate my offer to run a pickup d20 Modern game in the afternoon slot. That is, if I'm able to pick up a copy at Games Plus this afternoon after work.

Is there any specific type of game that people would like to see run? I was thinking about maybe a Cold War spy thing, but if people would rather try something with a bit more flash (monsters and magic), I'd be willing to try it out.

I have no doubt that if I get the book today I'll be making pre-gens tonight regardless.

OK, I retract my offer -- you're the official back-up man if the Star Wars game falls through!

Cold War is fine for me. Cold War with some weirdo X-files stuff going on might be even cooler, though. But it's your game, whatever you think you can have fun running, I'm sure I'll have fun playing.
