Well, that makes it even more appealing to run. Now to work up the energy to put together some campaign world notes.

Oh yeah... Uhm, well, I went out and did something silly. I discoverd the Savage Worlds game and am pretty much enamoured with it. I like it way better than D&D3E, even though it's not nearly as detailed. In fact, I think that's why I like it so much. And you can do so much more so much more easily with it. I haven't gotten to try it out yet, but it actually has me pretty excited about gaming in general, moreso than I have been.
Otherwise, I still haven't advanced the possibility of me GMing. I really shudder at the prep-work 3E takes. ECLs, CRs, argh! Totally beyond me. I'm still all up for starting up a new group, but running it? Eh, I would like to think I could, but it just doesn't seem probable. Count me in to play, help out any that I can, bring my giant battlemat, etc, almost for sure, though.

ciaran - I'm willing to check it out. Contact me with info. lazarus@stormbreaker.net
Also, I'd like to try to get some people together to try out Savage Worlds. I just announced I'm gonna run it for the next NorCal Gameday, but I'd like to get some practice with the rules in before then. If anyone is internested, I'd probably run it at Great Escape Games on a Saturday during the day, and it would pretty much be the big combat scenario I described (heh sorta) in the other thread.
If interested, let me know. I'm shooting for October 4th, so as to give everyone time to schedule.

To make it official, I will be running a Savage Worlds "demo" at Great Escape Games on Howe Ave. on Saturday October 4th at around 1pm.
All you gotta do is show up and say "I wanna play in the Savage Worlds game." and if there's a spot open (I'm prepared for 6 spots, and only have about 3 people so far.) you can play too. This is providing that the peopel I do have now don't punk out on me. Am I just offensive? Do I smell? Getting a game together is like pulling teeth. If people do show up and the game goes well, I would probably be able to run another game. Seeing as it's basically just a big skirmish, it shouldn't take too long. Everyone can see how the rules work. If it goes well, hopefully I can recruit people for an extended campaign, in a different genre (not all battle).

that sounds like a good idea, mistergone.
I don't know if I can make it - I don't know anything about Savage Worlds....
On a different question - has anyone picked up any of the D&D Miniatures Game? It looks rather neat, and GE has some boosters left.

To find out about Savage Worlds, check out www.peginc.com and look for the TestDrive rules in the Downloads section. I'll definately have two slots open for the game, maybe 3. There's more people that have said "eh, maybe" than have commited.
As for the D&D minis game, I don't really have an interest in it beyond a few of the minis, which I think would be cool to have. I hear they're on the smallish side though. Me, my prepainted mini interest is sold to Heroclix basically.
