THINGS WE NEED:
+Mod
+Site to run this in

+Image Host

IMGUR may work. Some source sites (BGG, for one) have image albums too we could use.

+Players

I don't know how this works played online, but I know the other group does REAL TIME on some Sundays.
Whatever, the thread's for planning purposes so this is where we sort things out.

[Andrius]

I haven't played D&D in years. The last thing I remember was having my arm bludgeoned off with a mace in some sort of sacrifice thing because we pissed some bad guy off.

I think the most crucial item probably figuring out who can run the game. Because we apparently need a mod (?) and there are online sources for running the game through. I mean, I have an IMGUR account so we can always host images there in albums. I do have another source for me.

I have zero experience running a D&D game for others but suppose that's something I could look into here if we needed someone. I imagine I'd need the sourcebook but its likely that my local game shop has a copy. I can find out Tuesday when I'm planning on going in for game night. I ran a Dead of Winter game off-site and that was a blast though.

Play-by-post seems solid. Unless we all happen to have a couple hours and can do something in real time, PBP sounds like the way to go.

[Andrius]

The other group uses ARCADE, so I think here's fine.
IMGUR works; there are plenty of other options as well.

Hrm. If anyone else has mod experience, that'd be swell.
I'll go do some digging on my own though. I know CURSE OF STRAHD is a pretty set up adventure so maybe I'll just buckle and run it myself.

Is there a good player number for the game? Like X is too many or something?

[Andrius]

I know but we just did STRAHD so now we can REALLY do STRAHD.
Or something. We have time to figure out what we can do, etc.

(I also have a secret desire to play MOUSE GUARD sometime too.)

[Andrius]

Thanks to Clumsy and a friend of mine, the likelihood of me DMing this has increased by like 30%.

[Andrius]

I have never heard of Mouse Guard before. Just the name is interesting to me.

You're basically a party of mice out to protect mice-dom from weasels and ferrets and frogs and newts and WOLVES.
Basically a nice RPG in D&D-esque style but simplified and everything's from the POV of mice.
So you can fight a wolf, for example, but you need A LOT OF MICE.

I could also be swayed to do this.

[Andrius]

this is only for STRAHDians right

I mean, Strahdians definitely get priority but if we have room then we could open it.

So, like, Redwall RPG.


Come to think of it, a Redwall RPG would be amazing.

Yes, like a Redwall RPG.
Which WOULD be amazing.

huh If you guys still got a slot I'm interested. That's only if you don't have a sloth yet... I will show myself out.

Putting you down Mr. Sloth.

[Andrius]

Also who knows, maybe the non-STRAHDIANS will make appearances as NPCs if need-be?

This is still in the mythical land of THINGS I WANT TO DO.
