[QUOTE="innerdude, post: 5453059, member: 85870"] Great comments and suggestions from everyone. To Rel and Amerigo: I've already got physical copies of the Savage Worlds Explorer's Edition core rulebook and the Savage Worlds fantasy companion, so we've got that covered. =) I'm highly enthralled by the rules, and think they make a great system for a number of different settings, and I'm definitely going to try them. Update on our situation: After talking it out with everyone, we're going to tentatively move the game to a different night (we play weekly), one that more people will be able to join regularly. We played a game tonight (more on that in another thread) that went pretty well, but true to form, Jared didn't show. So, it sounds to me like he's just basically done with the whole thing, so I'm not counting on him. However, the remaining group seems to be fairly committed to keeping the game going, we talked a bit about making more conscious efforts to be more engaged at the table and with the characters, and they seemed positive about it. Plus, one of my MIA players showed up and added a spark, and another player who's only been semi-regular made a breakthrough with his character tonight that really added to the gameplay. So for now, we're moving forward with the game on Thursday evenings, and people are on board with it. My sister-in-law's boyfriend (the WoD player) has a conflict with a Shadowrun game that he's currently playing on Thursdays, but it sounds like that game is only in its infancy, and he's not really totally committed to it if it doesn't work out, and would come back in a heartbeat if it dies, so we'll have to keep an eye on that. But, the game's on much more solid footing than it was a couple of days ago, and having honest dialogue about it was very useful. I'm sad that Jared doesn't seem all that interested in continuing, but it's his life, and his time to spend, and so we wish him well, and we'll always have time for a good game of Dominion or Castle Ravenloft with him.
