Chicago Gameday XI is 7/9: Planning thread!

*snicker*

I may have to play Cats.


I don't know that I *could* keep myself from channeling D&DD.

but you named the event, hee!

 

[JoeGKushner]

Sorry! I was planning to whip up some pre-made PCs at www.snotling.org/modules.php?name=warhammer2-npc-gen . Check it out!

Pretty interesting. I was worried about the number of time I came up with thief as a career choice though. Out of seven characters, four were thieves. Very interesting though and something great for NPC generation.

Hey, Quickbeam, izzat BRP CoC or d20?

Looks like QB hasn't seen this, but from our phone call yesterday, I know he's planning on BRP Cthulhu at this point.

 

[Quickbeam]

JD is correct. I'm going to run 1920's BRP Cthulhu in keeping with the spirit of a largely non-d20 array of Gameday events.

And FWIW, you can call my game The Problem With Kids Today.

I will post a full description this weekend which can be added to the sign up thread andfolks should know that I will bring pregen characters for this low level session. I've only scratched the surface with regards to laying out the entire adventure, but I can't wait to unleash the horror!

July 9th is best for me if people are interested in a Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved game.

It would be great if Barendd Nobeard and I carpool too.


Peace and smiles

No problem. I should be good for July 9th, so we can head down together. Our CoC host may join us as well for the trek down to Chicago. Road trip!

 

[Barendd Nobeard]

You're missing Quickbeam's morning Cthulhu game (which I'll be playing in, BTW, assuming I can clear the date and come, which I think is 90%+ probably at this point.)

Say, Cthulhu seems to always be a popular offering. If I offered a second Cthulhu game in the afternoon (d20 in my case) would folks be interested in potentially two Cthulhu slots?

Yes. I will gladly play both CoC games (any system, any era, any insanity)!

Man, I like a good anchovy pizza. Admittedly, it's hard to find one.

Anchovies, spinach, tomatoes, garlic, artichoke hearts and feta makes for a great pizza.

Pbartender, I'll have a car at the gameday. If you find a place within driving distance, I can pick up the anchovy pizza!

I don't think there is any rush. By pushing the date back to July 9th, we now have two and a half months before the gameday. That's anywhere from two weeks to a month longer than we usually have before the sign up thread needs to be up (to allow for a month to six weeks for signing up).

Maybe we should take the extra time to accomplish something else in this thread, though I am not sure what.

Rumor has it that some places within driving distance delivery pizza these days...

Maybe the extra time will give some new people a chance to find out about this. Maybe even a few new games offered. We have the table space, maybe we will have the turn-out to justify more games by new (for us) GMs.
