To rectify my lack of GMing I'm starting a three pronged attack.
- I've setup three dates early Next Year, Jan 12th, Feb 9th, Mar 8th, all on a Sunday to GM some RGQ over at Bean Gaming in Leicester and agreed to run a RGQ at Glorantha Games in April. I've also tentatively had agreement from my long standing (30+ year) RPG group for me to run some RGQ in January.
- I've put some feelers out on Audio Dungeon Discord to see if there is any interest in a Old School Essentials Wilderlands session.
- I intend to put some feelers out to see if there is any interest locally in playing OSE. TBH I don't hold out much hope as most people seem only interested in playing D&D 5e.
Runequest Glorantha
To run the RGQ I need to re-read the rule book and concentrate on understanding Shamans and become more familiar with all the magic spells. I also need to re-familiarise myself with the Broken Tower starter adventure and finish writing up my own adventure, Bye-Tore & The Snow Dog as well as putting the next couple of adventures down onto paper as they are currently sitting exclusively in my head. I was intending to format my notes using the Jonstown Compendium Creators Circle templates, which I also need to look at.
Old School Essentials & the Wilderlands
Old School Essentials (OSE) is the system recently published by Necrotic Gnome via a Kickstarter. It's effectively a re-formatting of the D&D B/X which is my favourite RPG system. The Wilderlands is Judge's Guild campaign world which first saw the light of day as a published work in 1976 as The City State of the Invincible Overlord. I created my own implementation of it over at scabard.
My intention is to run the OSE including the optional Advanced Fantasy books. I intend to run it within The Wilderlands set in Map 6, The City State of the World Emperor, around Tell Qa in the Smyrsis province. My Wilderlands setting would be a sandbox faithfully using Bob Bledsaw's original version of the Wilderlands where ever possible but taking from other sources as appropriate as well as including a lot of my own fiction. I'll use James Mishler's version of Tell Qa as the base for the city.
My Wilderlands will have a mixture of scenarios I've written and also some published scenarios, each dropped in at set locations, so the Keep on the Borderlands exists in my Wilderlands campaign, as does The Isle of Dread.
