GMT+1 and taking up DM'ing in group 1; I'd like however to join Hairy's group as a player as well. If everything is sorted, I'll start writing the first session for my group and start a private convo to get group 1 sorted, I suggest the other DM's invited their players as well
I am still up to join, just waiting on DM also still wondering if I should redo character with just basic core rulebook, but ill wait to hear from the DM
Already kinda started forming parties. Will have the updated list by the end of the day most likely. Just gotta figure out where everyone is and allocate them respectively. Also, the group I'm running with should be able to start going by next weekend! And the first AARP wouldn't be too far behind that.
Just a heads up on how I will be participating in this. I have a group of 6 people for a local table top game, we will create an npc warband for my pc's to start in and I will post regular updates to the players activities. The session will run once a month and if the pc's break off into another warband, than it will be open season for other GMs to initiate a raid. How I will incorporate other GM raids. The gm will need to pm me their groups stats, legion and build. What their secret weaknesses are and how they could be discovered. I will reply with my groups, this will include npc cohorts, allies created in the vortex and the region that their warband roams around. The NPC warband that they start in will be fairly powerful, just so my players can learn the structure in a safe environment. I will also post the entire NPC fleet they start in for everyone else to plot around. I will also post the scheduled sessions so that if someone wants something actioned from my group (like assistance in a raid or some other objective they would like fulfilled) we can run it and then post the results for your groups. As all of the members in this group are working professionals, we don't really have time to coordinate a real time run with other groups nationally. While that is an awesome idea, it does not work with our schedules that barely have enough flexibility to run this campaign more than once a month. Thanks.
Okay, going to toss something out here myself. I'm going to host a forum-run game. so I'll be GMing one of them (and really, us GMs and possibly the GMs from other factions need to get together and come up with some over-arching story and intersects). In a large part I'm going to run it on a forums for several reasons, one of which being time-zone/game coordination. However, what this also means is that those players that are going to sign up are going to be committed to interaction in the game at least once every two days, and at a minimum once/day during combat (or else even the brutal combats that happen can get bogged down). During combat, if someone doesn't make a deadline, it's likely the character will simply choose to hunker down or similar. So, if you think you are interested in this approach and are familiar with forum RP (slightly different than doing it live or face-to-face), hit me up. I can probably work with 5 players to keep it reasonable. Also, we won't be doing it here, and the forums we will be using will be private, so no spies seeing what's going on, well, without me knowing about it at least. We'll be using Black Crusade core (and/or Rogue Trader), unless someone can slip me a copy of the expansions. (working on picking them up, can't believe I didn't know they were out).
Haven't you tried enough crusades already. Just give up, it will be allot easier for you Me and my brothers can lend a few helping bolter round for your peo... umm mutants and heretics.
Some of my brothers have already stated this, and I must do the same. I will speak for the Forgotten Sons in these RP's.
