[LFP][Free][Pendragon] Starting a new Pendragon campaign Wednesdays at 4pm EST!

Hi folks! I'm a longtime GM of various systems starting a campaign of Pendragon, Chaosium's Arthurian RPG. It's a great system, and I have a cool campaign whipped up that'll take the players from the start of Arthur's reign all the way to his last battle. The focus of the game will be storytelling/RP, with combat as a second and the system's feudal estate management third. Arthurian lore is a particular speciality of mine so I'm very excited to be running this campaign. Currently we have one confirmed player, and are looking for 1-3 more. Sessions would happen weekly, and unfortunately session time is not currently flexible.
Can you tell me about the system itself?
I don't think my replies in this thread are posting, so I'm going to try again. If there are several very similar messages I apologize, they aren't showing up for me. Pendragon is a d20 system but not like D&D 5e. You have physical attributes, skills, traits, and passions, all of which can be rolled against. A success is rolling less than your stat, with rolling the exact number being a critical success. Traits are paired and each pair always adds up to 20 (for example Modest 13/Proud 7, etc.). A mechanic I find particularly interesting is Glory, the stat by which knights compare their worth. Any important action can garner glory, and it can also be inherited. Since the game covers the entirety of Arthur's reign, a long time by medieval standards, players are likely to play two or three characters in order to always be in their fighting prime. These characters are usually all of a family so that Glory, lands, and storylines can be inherited. The system includes robust mechanics for managing your knight's lands, and while I currently don't plan to focus heavily on this I can change that if players are interested.
I am very much looking forward to this. I hope as many as possible will want to join.
I have always wanted to play in a Pendragon game, I would definitely be interested! How long do you see the sessions/campaign running for? 
Sessions would probably be max 3 hours each, and there's plenty of content to keep the campaign running. If players wanted a shorter campaign that would be doable, but the way I have it currently envisioned it spans the entirety of the Arthurian story, which makes for a longer campaign.

Sorry, will send it in PM instead then.
I haven't been able to play Pendragon in ages, I would love to join. I've had it since the first edition came out, and can explain my experience more in PMs.
