The One Ring - Cubicle 7

[IronWolf]

Stumbled upon an online character sheet creator via a thread on rpg.net. It is a work in progress, but at initial glance seemed sort of cool to help walk one through initial character creation.

You don't have to worry about some hobbit learning to throw fireballs and ruining the spirit of the world.

"Pippin Took: Level 8/9 Chaos Sorcerer/Wild Mage."

Woah.

That sounds cool based just on the mechanics. I've been holding off on ordering this--it's a lot of money for a game I'm unlikely to play any time soon, if ever--but you've really got me wavering...

I walked thru their booth at 4PM on the Sunday of GenCon and came VERY close to buying the book. I'd been seeing stuff online and I'm a huge Tolkien fan, but I ended up passing at the last minute cuz I know the odds are I'll never get to play it and it will just sit around being pretty heh.

The game does sound very good tho and the folks at Cubicle 7 were nice. I was very surprised by one thing tho. They have SLA Industries as one of their games through their agreement w/Hogshead Games, but I saw not a single SLA book or posters advertising SLA at their booth. If they had a copy of Cannibal Sector One I would have bought it in a heartbeat. Normally it's stupidly expensive due to shipping from the UK. Not that I ever get to play my SLA either, but I'm only missing a couple of SLA books

That is very cool. It's amazing what people can do now, and so quickly!

EDIT: That same thread now has a link to an Excel character generator as well.

Last night, the family finished playing through the intro adventure included in the Loremaster book. The whole game went pretty smoothly, with just a few very minor problems (aresult of being fairly new to the system). In particular, I may, in the future want to be more generous with doling out the advancement points. But we enjoyed it enough that I will certainly be working on a set of adventures for the game.

Excellent! I am still working through the rules and making sure I have it all straight. Once I do I might try to run the adventure in the Loremaster book over Skype for some folks and see how it goes! Anxious to see the system in action.

Pick a Thursday!

Pick a Thursday!

I could do that as well! I guess we will have enough folks with the books and there are pre-gens!

EDIT: Don't read the adventure!

I haven't really looked over the books at all of anything I got at Gen Con.

Logan Bonner and Chris Tulach (and others) were creating characters for a One Ring game last night... as evidenced by their posting on twitter.
