[QUOTE="saitir, post: 5135606, member: 35012"] Hi I'm looking to start running an online 4th edition game. I've been a DM for more than a decade now and have recently lost access to my tabletop group. [LIST] [*]Game session to be held somewhere between Friday and Sunday (as best suites players). [*]My own game world that I've been developing for a long long time. [*]Expect a fair mix of RP and combat. Depending on situations one element or the other may dominate a session, but I don't think that's abnormal. [*]This is a points of light game in an absolute sense - the players are in an overcrowded city surrounded by a hostile wilderness, cut off from the rest of the world. [*]Deviations from core D&D amounts to a few race rebrandings (e.g. Halflings and Gnomes are considered dwarves. Eladrin are High Elves, Elves are Wood Elves, Half Elves are Mountain Elves and so on. Mechanically they remain constant) and a custom pantheon. Obviously the world history is its own, but otherwise things will be reasonably recognisable to any fantasy gaming fan. [*]My approach to the rules is that we start off following the letter and try things out (I find this varies by group rather than being an absolute) and tweak as we see fit. Therefore, rules updates and so on will generally be followed. [*]I intend to use Maptools for the tabletop, but am currently undecided on the voice side of things. Suggestions welcome. [*]A good character background and ideas for shaping the campaign are always welcome. Often bonus feats for good backgrounds are allotted. [/LIST]Regarding session time and day, I prefer something in the 4 - 6 hour range. I'm in the UK but if my players are from elsewhere I can easily accomodate US timezones over the weekend. My preference would be for a saturday evening, but you can't run a game without players, so I'm happy to be flexible. Questions and clarifications here, applications via PM. I look forward to hearing from you. [/QUOTE]
