Detroit Gameday II: Dec 4th AFTERMATH!!!

[broghammerj]

Shadowlight,

I would possibley be interested in a RPGA game. I'm vaguely familiar with RPGA, but never been a member or know what tournaments are like, etc. Never knew anyone in the RPGA ( I know, the words of a blasphemer).

Let me know as soon as you can about running the session for Gameday and I will get out a description. Thanks.

We've already got seven uncommitted morning folks; I don't think there should be any need for you to change your schedule unless you'd really rather run something. I know several of those uncommitted folks are also DMs, and some of them have even been identified as potential backup DMs already, so we just need to sort out who's going to do what.

Actually Quickbeam I was referring to the latest and possibly greatest MSU heartbreaker in recent memory. I am not sure I will ever be able to ever get over this one vs. UM.

My friend, I learned during my freshman year that the Spartan football program would annually find new (and increasingly more painful) ways to disappoint its legion of faithful fans. Look at yesterday's loss to the Buckeyes for another example.
This year's game versus the Weasels came down to three things:
1) Stanton being injured before half time.
2) Poor fielding of an onside kick.
3) The dreaded "Prevent Defense."

Oh well, hoops season is just around the corner! Don't get me wrong, I will always root -- and root HARD -- for our gridiron boys, but I've become a little numb and immune to the shock of these frustrating losses.

Joshua- Sounds good. I am just happy to be attending, so it really isn't a big deal whether I play or GM. If things cannot be worked out with others in terms of running a game you can use me as insurance if you like.

Quickbeam- So true about the Spartans as I have also come to expect it. Unfortunately my expectations were peaked after we thoroughly dominated UM for three quarters.

Alright Quickbeam, enough. I submit. I'll run a morning straight out D&D game.

Four players -7th level. Players create their own characters using 26 point buy (25 plus the extra one for fourth level). Players can use any race, class, feat, spell, whatever. during character creation, gold is limited to that found for 7th level NPCs in the DMG. Buy whatever you can afford. Send me characters at jjstockdale@hotmail.com. If you choose to use non-PBH material, send me a source reference and a brief description of the benefits.

I'll run a modified version of Bloodlines out of Dungeon. I'll post an introductory paragraph later on.

Gotcha! Thanks for your kind offer to run a morning D&D game. Now I just have to work on your rather paltry point buy number .

BTW Josh, you can put me down as signed up for Stockdale's event once he formally supplies a description and you have it listed on the front page.

Here's the intorductory hook for Bloodlines:

The road can be long and weary, but today it is not. You hear the hooves beating, the shouts of men and the rattle of tack. You turn around to see a carriage, which bears the symbol of a charging boar, careen through the fork in the road you passed some minutes ago. It's moving too fast for the turn and tips, spilling several armored men to ground. Amidst the confusion of the accident and the horses trying to rise, two dark figures lope into the street and descend upon the dazed men. Their screams are renewed and, even from you distance, you can see that the newcomers intend to eat the carriages' occupants.

...even from your distance, you can see that the newcomers intend to eat the carriages' occupants.

That's so cool...and wicked. I love it!!

Well, I've got the new game in the first post, so all you displaced folks; decide what yer going to do!
