Gaming Plan 2009

All Flesh Must Be Eaten

Image via Wikipedia

Well it’s taken a month but here is my draft gaming plan for 2009. Ambitious, probably unachievable, but a plan:

General

  • Tidy up Omniverse.net adventure and spells.
  • Sell WHFRP books.
  • Sell TORG.
  • Read Jorune.
  • Read Earthdawn and evaluate for 2010 gaming.
  • Read Gwenthia and re-evaluate and update Cromaigne changes in main pdf.
  • Buy and play more Star Wars miniatures with Kieran.
  • Write up Savage Showdown stats for my SF Near Future minatures and play some skirmish games
  • Play Tannhauser boardgame.
  • Play Stonehenge boardgame.
  • Play World at War boardgame.

Games I want to play

  • Play Qin
  • Play a One Roll Engine game
  • Play MRQ
  • Play GUMSHOE
  • Play StarBlazers
  • Play Cold Crusade
  • Play I-War
  • Play HELLAS

Games I’d like to run

Run Pathfinder Chronicles using BRP:

with cults like RQ3;
with simple Elric! level rules;
3 2-3 sessions, not necessarily with the same players.

Run Vikings using either Savage or Wordplay;

use RQ Vikings as source;
use Beowulf (various versions);
Create a short (3-4 page) players pack for playing Vikings (non system specific),
Culture,
Mythology,
Gazeteer,
Scan and collect lots of images and flavour;
Collect suitable music;
Write a 3 session arc, 1 of which is suitable for a con game, not necessarily the same players.
 

Renuwal Survival Horror using AFMBE:

3 part Trilogy of single games,
underground lab,
escape from the town,
post zombie apocalypse;
Strongly influenced by Resident Evil but with some twists;
Collect music and images;
Use the AFMBE pregen characters from sourcebooks,
Age the characters from game to game,
Not necessarily the same players;
Suited to cons.
 

Noir – Mean Streets – A Dirty World:

Prepare to run noir style games as one offs using the scenarios in Mean Streets book;
Consider using ‘A Dirty World’ or GUMSHOE, but probably stay with genrediversion from MS book;
Lots of photos, images, maybe some music;
Suited to cons.
 

Deadlands one off:

Mix up Deadlands and Coyote Trail and GURPS Wild West sources;
Use the Coffin sourcebook;
Be able and ready to run at short notice.
 

B5 Traveller:

Probably not going to happen in 2009, but read, prepare, evaluate.
 

Battlestar Galactica rpg:

Probably also not going to happen in 2009 but read, prepare, evaluate.
 

Talislanta:

Probably not going to happen in 2009, retire to shelves and allow to ferment.
 

Freeport:

Not going to happen in 2009, read if time and life allows.
 

Gwenthia:

Not going to happen in 2009. Need to resolve system and just how well I can get on with MRQ. Need to play some more MRQ.
 

Let’s see how it goes
