Hello
I am new to the forums--finally breaking down and admitting that all this technology is here to stay--and thought I would say hello. I have been involved in gaming for 22 years, and started playing while I was in the U S Navy. I started with Gamma World, Top Secret, and of course Adnd 1st Edition. Since then I have played most of the popular systems and many of the lesser known and independent systems. Like all of us I experienced a metamorphisis throughout the years, going from a tactical player to a roleplayer, and finding a comfortable balance between the two.
I was really exicited about the birth of each edition of DnD and the surge of interest in the hobby in general. As time went on I found that many of the OGL settings, and alternate rules appealed to me more than DnD, or Modern. I create a seperate storyline for each game I run based on the ruleset I am currently using. At this time I am in the developemental phase of a campaign using Luke Crane's Burning Wheel system. The system is different in many ways from the other systems I have used, and seems to have a lot of potential.
To me the creative process involved in gaming is the most satisfying part, and it feeds the attention hog in me to no end.
I am going to be posting a story hour in the future, which will follow the storylline of the new campaign. It will be set in a homebrew which I call Danlorn-Assa. Hopefully once I get it going you guys will find it interesting and give me some feed back.
Thanks
David

howdy. Piratecat pointed me this way and I've already started digging into the campaign storylines. Been gaming on and off for 25 years or so, finally broke my con cherry earlier this year (and had a great time). Getting into 3.5, like the Rolemaster flavor it has (are those klaxons sounding? Did I commit blasphemy?). Also dipped my feet into Burning Wheel and found it very interesting. Looking forward to entering the writing contests and getting to know you all.

Greetings
I've been lurking here for a while, having joined expressly to keep track of Sepulchrave's story thread; I've decided to see about making a few contributions of my own.
