Rystil's Next Game--You Pick!

[Bront]

I've seen Planescape once, never played it, but it always looked interesting. I think I could do my Eberron character there too. Been itching to do a Recaster.

You doing gestalt on any/all of these? I know you like that.

My parents asked me what my little brother would want for the holidays, and I told them Five Nations and Sharn, City of Towers, so I might have access to those. He already has ECS, Races of Eberron, and Magic of Eberron. The problem is that I haven't read them at all

I should of asked for Sharn, too late now , ah well.

Heh, looks like my "everyone likes Planescape" comment was true so far, with 100% votes for it Too bad I don't have any specific ideas for Planescape yet--I just put it up there because I think it's cool

Well I never got to play Planescape, even though my brother had all the material he never ran a game that used any of it.

None of these would be gestalt except for the one listed as gestalt. The Post-Arthurian has some very powerful PrCs, though.

I wish I had more Planescape material than I do (I really wish I had Faces of Evil and the Planes of X box-sets), but I must suffice with what I have, which is all three 2e Monstrous Compendiums, the basic box set, Tales from the Infinite Staircase, and the Guide to the Ethereal Plane.

I voted for post Authurian. Partly because I like the period, and partly because I like the idea of playing with pregenerated characters. I'm a bit over character generation at the moment.

thotd

There's an online guide around somewhere. I have the link at home.

That's cool. I know some people don't like pregens, but I've had some great success with playtesting the Post-Arthurian campaign with the pregens. The most satisfying part is that I ran this one once for some young high schoolers and used a lot of Celtic themes, and then they had to answer questions in academic competitions and they knew it from my game. Yay, games can teach you something! It also helped me out a bunch when I discovered (and immediately signed up for) the class 'Arthurian Literature and Celtic Colonisation'

Oh, don't get me wrong--I do know all the basics about Planescape. I can name all the Outer Planes in order in the circle and the layers of many of them (the ones with countable layers at least ), and I was enough of a Planescape vet to be upset and indignant about the silly changes they made in 3e. It's just that I heard that Faces of Evil in particular was super-awesome

I ment for filling people in who have none of the material (like myself) and never played.

I'm not a planar buff, and don't recal much of it other than some from 1st Ed about which planes are which, but I could easily play that up with an accidental traveler.
