I am personally keep thinking about The Halls of Arden Vul, seems like an awesome thing to run. But I have to admit it's a bit intimidating due to size and complexity and I can't, for the life of me, decide what system to run it with. But it's been there brewing at the back of my head for almost two years now..
and I can’t, for the life of me, decide what system to run it with.
There's a youtube channel called 3d6 Down The Line having a blast playing through it right now, and they're using the Old School Essentials rules.
Homebrew stonepunk setting with GURPS
Duskvol with HERO (don't care much for FitD, but the setting seemed cool)
AD&D 2nd Edition game in a post-cataclysmic Forgotten Realms, where magic is only done by specialty priests and thus cults are getting increasingly important. Basically a mixture between regular FR, those wu xia movies with lots of hidden sects and the cults of RuneQuest.
Speaking of RuneQuest, now that BRP/ORC is out, I want to use it for something. Torn between a Qin dynasty not-quite-Wu Xia game and MERP-style Middle Earth.
Huh. Tried posting this response before, but Jerbo apparently ate my post.
I frickin love GURPS Ice Age supplement. But never have run it for two reasons:
- After years of consideration I've come to the conclusion that I just don't particularly like GURPS as a system.
- I can never think of stone age scenarios that feel compelling in my mind. Not sure what quality would quite seem satisfying.
But still have some fascination with a dawn of humanity type setting.
fantasy age and ninja crusade
Two games I really really to run right now.
One is Lancer. As much as I love fantasy games, the sci-fi setting looks like a nice change and battlemechs are cool. The character creation and levelling mechanics are interesting and I like the way you can reconfigure your setup so easily.
The other is the fantasy TTRPG I'm writing myself. Its current working title is Saga, and it's loosely inspired by ideas from D&D, Lancer, Fate, and my own experiments in game design. The aim is something more structured than Fate but more story-focused than D&D where non-combat challenges are given more emphasis and mechanical support.
Games: I recently purchased a set of Genesys dice. I'd like to use them someday.
Modules: On my shelf, I have a copy of "Odyssey of the Dragonlords" just waiting to be used. However, my bestie is a big fan of greek myth, so I need to make sure she'd be able to play it with me or it'd just feel mean.
Modules (Part 2): I've recently gotten into writing my own adventures, and have a pair of murder mysteries almost ready to go. I'm not sure if they're well-made or not, but there's really only one way to find out.
I have their L5R starter set and dice. One day..
I'm looking forward to running my own fantasy setting I've been dreaming up, and Knave 2e looks like it should cover my system needs. Until I get the physical book from the kickstarter, I'll be working on world building. I don't have anything to show off here yet.
SLA Industries 2nd Ed
Mage: the Ascension (with heavy modification to rules and setting)
Homebrew World, a hack of Dungeon World. It is also the core system of the upcoming and highly anticipated Stonetop.
Lacking the time and the players at the moment though.
The games I want to run right now are:
- Forbidden Lands
- Swords of the Serpentine
- Ultraviolet Grasslands
- Delta Green
- Trophy Dark
- Electric Bastionland
I'm currently trying to build a community on lemmy for Forbidden Lands. It's a bit too ealry for discussions, but you might find some helpful resources there: https://lemm.ee/c/forbiddenlands
I was also considering a thieves guild game played with Swords of the Serpentine.
