Looking to start a new game (BFRPG system) TEXT ONLY

1426461013

Edited 1426475217
I am a GM looking for players. Will be running the BFRPG system (basically a system modeled after the old school systems from my past), and am looking for a few people that would like to play. Sundays work best for me, but there may be opportunities to have it float across the weekend depending on what everyone wants. I am in the Pacific Time Zone, and would be willing to play it starting as early as 6 am PST sunday but it appears that we are looking to start at 5 or 6 pm. See below for the short teaser for this game. This game will be played using the Basic Fantasy Role Playing Game rules (BFRPG) and all relevant supplements. All materials can be downloaded from the web for free at <a href="http://www.basicfantasy.org/downloads.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.basicfantasy.org/downloads.html</a>. I have a few house rules that you can see once we get that far. I am looking for 2-4 players that are interested in playing the role, interacting with the others, and being as much a part of this experience as I am. As mentioned in the title this is a text only group. No video or voice. The Western Lands are an extremely isolated area in the World of Morinia. In fact, most of the intelligent races in the Lands believe that this is the whole world. After the collapse of the Urdish Empire, much of the knowledge and technology needed to explore beyond this small region was lost. Upon occasion, a visitor from some far off land will appear in one tavern or another, filled with such wild tales that, to the common folks, border on the unbelievable. These eccentrics are general dismissed by the locals as a drunkard or liar. Having left home seeking some missing element in your young life, you were traveling in the southern reaches of the Lands when strange rumors reached your ears. These rumors speak of orc raids, local disappearances, and treasure in the wild lands surrounding the small military outpost of Morgansfort. Deciding to check for yourself, you gather your gear and soon find yourself standing in front of the imposing steel and wood gates of the fort. There are few people at the gates this early, but you do notice others that seem as out of place as you feel. Perhaps they are adventurers like you. The gates are closed and the older, surly guard tells you that visitors are not admitted until the gates open. He insists that you wait as the gates will open soon.
Hey Joshua, I've been looking for someone to run a Basic Fantasy game for a while now. The game system captures the same feeling the rules had back when I started playing in '82. Please take a moment to look at my gaming resume' when you get a chance. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1567543/player-l" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1567543/player-l</a>... Sundays at 6PM PST time is a good time for me because I'm a night person and it will be 9PM my time. However, in the midst of moving so I'm not sure about my schedule until after the first week of April. If you have any questions please feel free to drop me a line and I'll answer them A.S.A.P. Thanks for your time.

Wow, quite the resume. A little intimidating for me. I played years ago, back in the 80's and then went on break for like 25 years. I think i could do 5 or 6 in the evening on Sundays. Just want to get done by like 10 pacific so I can get to bed and ready for work in the morning. I am kind of new to this system, but had a pretty decent group that fell through recently. If you want here is the link, check it out and see what you think.
Dude, the very last thing you need to be is intimidated by me buddy. I'm a gamer just like you my friend and we're here for exactly the same reason to have fun. I can't wait.
Great, well I'm hanging around on the table top doing a bit of touch up if you want to pop in. We can chat a bit

Wouldn't mind trying something "new". Never played anything old school. I could play as early as 7:30 your time on sundays
We had our first adventure of the campaign last night and I have to say what a great group of players I have found. Great play as they all try to find their character voice. However, as one would expect, we lost one of our players and I am looking for another. The game plays at 5 pm pacific time on Sunday evening. Anyone interested shoot me a pm, a response here may not get my attention as I don't have time to check back all the time, but I will try. Looking for a good player to join us and have a good time.

Sounds great! I'm not able to take up another game right now, but if I could, I'd be interested in this one. I think you'll find a lot of interest and I'm happy to see another Basic group popping up. There are a few. I've got a BFRPG open-table campaign that I need to get jump-started again. Happy adventuring DM Joshua and the party.
Hey Gold, Glad to see that you're looking out for the old schoolers my man. Sorry to hear that you can't make it to the game. It's been much fun so far, lots of interesting role playing. Josh is doing a heck of a job DMing. Perhaps we'll get to play together sometime in the future.
