Next week and beyond

Since it is post-Gen Con and we are expecting to be back to normal next week, what do we want to play?

As far as I know, everyone (our current 7 "regular" players) all plan to attend.

Our options include:

 - I can run the conclusion of the HEX adventures that I ran at Gen Con and you can see how the story ends. (I really appreciate your helping me playtest and the feedback has been very helpful.)

 - I can run one of the HEX official published adventures. You could play pregens or make your own characters but these appear to be one-shot adventures which will take a couple sessions each to play. I am not quite ready to pick up our campaign again but that is very likely in the future as I will be working on more HEX material which will be perfect for them.

 - I can run All For One. I have a module ready to run but everyone needs to make a character and a Lackey. (I expect that this will take more than a week's lead time to get everyone prepared.) This should take about 3 weeks to play.

 - Similarly, I can run Leagues of Adventure. I have two short adventures for this Victorian Era steampunk style HEX-like game. I believe that these would cover a few weeks of gaming but everyone needs to make a character and a Henchman. (I expect that this will take more than a week's lead time to get everyone prepared.)


 - I can run PFS. We would need to decide what level scenario that we want to and/or can play so that I can have one prepared.

-          I have a total of 6 tier 1-5 scenarios from seasons 2, 3 and 4 which can be run with whatever group attends.
-          I have a total of 2 tier 3-7 scenarios from season 3. One was originally a exclusive for tier 1-7 that was reworked and rereleased as a season 3 scenario and the other has to do with the pocket dimension.
-          I have a total of 11 tier 5-9 scenarios. They span across seasons 0 to 4. These include a pretty different one from the end of season 2 as well as a three parter also from season 2. 
-          Because a few playes still do not have a character of 7th level or higher, we cannot yet play any 7-11 tier scenarios.

-         I also have some Pathfinder modules which I can run. This includes Master of the Fallen Fortress which is meant for brand new PFS characters. It would take a night to play. Crypt of the Everflame is for 1st-2nd level characters (only Bruce has played it and not for PFS credit), Feast of Ravenmoor is for 2nd-4th level characters and the Midnight Mirror is for 3rd-5th level characters. Each module would take approximately 3 weeks to play.

If anyone else is dying to run, we can play what they have in mind.

GM Fun Fact: I have gotten to play in 11 PFS scenarios/modules between Gen Con 2011 and Gen Con 2012 as compared to 2 PFS scenarios between Gen Con 2010 and Gen Con 2011 and 0 PFS scenarios between Gen Con 2009 and Gen Con 2010.

  1. I vote for Leagues of Adventure or a lowbie PFS. I can also run PFS if you have some you havent read.

  2. Steve is bringing Kevin for one more week. He wants to play some HEX. I was thinking I could finish running my Gen Con scenarios for you guys. We can also discuss making characters for AFO and LoA.

    Here is David's list:

    My preferences in order:
    1- Finish your HEX gencon series
    2/3- All for One / test play Leagues of adventure.
    4- restart the HEX campaign
    5- Alpha Green
    6- PFS (getting a little burnt out -- could use a change for a while)

    I assume Alpha Green = Delta Green

    He also offered to try running Earthdawn. We found that there is a Pathfinder version of Earthdawn now available. I suggested that as an option. I am willing to give him a shot at running in the future.

  3. I'd like to see how the GenCon hex thing ends.
