That's really good to hear..I think I talked my DM into canning his game and starting a new one...I feel bad for doing it as this isn't the first time I've done this with our games, but we just have group problems that we need a game that lessens them.
Ya, it sucks but the characters are 6 individuals and there is no real group unity. Frankly, the only reason they are to gether is because they are being played by us. And there really dsoesn';t seem to be a good way to change it.
So, with luck we are going to SG-1, Stargate. Group unity is build into the system. Discipline and leadership is built into the system. It is easier to bounch out of a bad adventure and start fresh. I think the group really needs more rigid paremeters.
Y'know, reading a bunch of Larry Niven's Known Space books in addition to the Ringworld Anthology have me wondering if I'm ever going to look at a sweet potato the same way ever again.
So we played last night, we're playing again tonight... good epic-level stuff! I am running multiple games at once, so it's been quite a while since we played this group and we have several new players for the party. It's interesting how much more prep an epic game requires than a low-level one... I had about 8 printed pages of bad guys last night!
