Since the rules for the campaign are the same everywhere in the world, players can quickly jump right into the action just about anywhere people are playing without having to worry about house rules.MMRPG stands for Massively Multiplayer Role Playing Game and was created to elicit connections to some shared design and play styles inspired by online computer games as well as distinguish Dave Arneson’s Blackmoor: The MMRPG from other campaigns with similar structures. Dave Arneson’s Blackmoor: The MMRPG holds player input and enjoyment as the critical components of a successful campaign. “Since the beginning of fantasy role playing games, it was the players who fleshed out characters, bringing them to life.” said Dungeons & Dragon co-creator Dave Arneson. “Even to this day, my original players are still adding and contributing to the world of Blackmoor. The MMRPG campaign will continue that tradition. Blackmoor is and always has been for the players.”Players who begin play at MEGACON will be able to participate in the premier of the first four events created for the MMRPG campaign as well as attend a meet and greet session with the Zeitgeist Games Crew including the venerable Dave Arneson himself. Additional events will be premiered at a wide range of conventions and gamedays including Origins, GenCon: Indy, DragonCon and many more!
