[LFP][Genesys] - A New RPG By Brandon Berryhill - The Author of Ruin

Edit: Game is full but you can watch it Thursday nights at 8pm Pacific on <a href="https://twitch.tv/xbwalker1" rel="nofollow">https://twitch.tv/xbwalker1</a> Hello everybody. My name is Brandon Berryhill. I am the author of the book, "Ruin." Over 1 million copies sold (in my dreams). I'd link to amazon, but I don't know the rules about external linking, so I will just encourage you to search yourself or grab the link at brandonberryhill.com Anyhow, over the past week, I have been hard at work fleshing out the world of Ruin for RPG format. I decided to go with the Genesys system since I am fairly familiar with it (GMing Star Wars). I am looking for 5 players, preferably ones who can consistently play once a week from April 18 to late May. Video is allowed but not required. Voice is a must though.&nbsp; The games are at 8PM Pacific on Thursday nights starting on April 18th. Sorry for you early east coast sleepers, but my kid goes to bed at 730. That's the best I can do. Sorry that it isn't starting sooner but I will be in Germany for a business trip next week. Here is a link to the campaign.&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/155120/battle-for-ruin" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/155120/battle-for-ruin</a> &nbsp;Hopefully that is right. Keep in mind, I welcome new players, but I wouldn't mind a veteran or two. It has been a while since I GMd, so I could use a few mature and cool heads to keep me on course if I mess up any dice mechanics. As the author of Ruin, I'd like to think my story writing skills are up to par for a good RPG course, so let's hope we have a really fun adventure! Much of the art in this campaign is taken straight from my book, which is illustrated heavily. Much more of it is art from the second book which is not yet released! Now, for the boring details. Environment: Arid/Desert Mostly Location: Fictional world of Ruin Era: Technology roughly equal to late 1700s with some steampunk thrown in such as airships, landships, clockwork. Culture: Varies depending on where you are. This is a fictional world so there are no actual cultures from our history but there are comparisons. Mood: Depends on the player. Could be dark. Could be fun. Up to the group. Similarities: Somewhat similar in setting to Dune I suppose. No giant worms or aliens though and far more primitive. According to people who have reviewed my book, " a bit of a Road Warrior meets Dune feel throughout give this book a very compelling feel." One other thing to note: If you volunteer for this inaugural campaign in the Ruin universe, you will be helping me flesh out the universe. Especially with gear and settings. I have a list that I made myself of over 200 weapons, armor, and items, but I plan to expand on this significantly. As we play, I will be adding more! Oh and, if the story is really good, I may just weave some references to your characters and adventures into my next few books. Thanks all and I will see you in Ruin!
Would love to join, unfortunately I'm based in the UK :(&nbsp; Good luck with your game/campaign and future novels.
Thanks for the interest man! If you can find 4 friends in your timezone, I'm happy to host something on saturday afternoons in your time.&nbsp;
We lost 1 due to scheduling issues which opens up 1 slot. T minus 1 week before we start :)
Hey, I'm very interested in your campaign. I've just never played Genesys before and my friend recommended me playing it. Would you mind having someone brand new to the format? Also, good luck on tour book my man.
Sure thing. If you have played star wars edge of the empire, it's the same basic system.
Thanks everyone for your interest. We have a full 6 player game and in fact a few others waiting in the overflow seating lol. I will be streaming each session Thursday night at 8pm Pacific if anyone didn't get in but wants to watch. <a href="https://twitch.tv/xbwalker1" rel="nofollow">https://twitch.tv/xbwalker1</a>
I know I am bringing up an old post of mine but, if anyone is interested in the naval combat (landships) we are streaming our final battle tonight at 8PM PST which is roughly 20 minutes from now over at <a href="https://twitch.tv/xbwalker1" rel="nofollow">https://twitch.tv/xbwalker1</a> There will be some openings for this game soon as this campaign reaches its conclusion and a new one begins. Those of you who are DM/GMs and are looking to try a new system, I have video catalogued all our encounters on twitch and have most of the materials for you. Just PM me if you want to know more.&nbsp; Tonight, we defend the city of Gateway from a massive navy.&nbsp; Pic credit to Brandon Ellis, my primary artist for all my projects in this universe.&nbsp;
