Hopefully I'll combine my knowledge of all of this to make it the best RPG ever.

Hint.. the OP of the new thread will involve me [PURGED BY ORDER OF INQUISITION] so it will take a LOT of time and effort to create, but I owe all the previous players that much, so I'll make it work this time.

But it'll only start once a lot of the other RPGs have died down.. Blood Moon and Space Hulk for example. I don't see EF's Inquisitorial Henchman RPG dying any time soon. Likewise with the up-and-comer RPG Crystal Angels, which is very successful and popular - kudos to Harrab for being a tactical genius of a GM.

Also, if anyone wants to join Space Hulk, I'm always looking for new players to replace those that don't frequent the thread anymore.

Yeah, I'd surely want to wait for a few of the current RP's to die down before seeing a "zombie re-launch".
And I'm sure you'll do a great job at the helm Darko.

One concern however is that some of the original PC's seem to no longer be with us.

Jp hasn't been around for a long time, I think that thread was why he left. Karon is still poking around, being his usual angry self, but I doubt he'll rejoin or that any players want him to. I don't have a problem with him joining, but it is true that many people take offense to his characters and the persona he uses on the internet. I do however accept responsibility for the terrible first event of RZ&LWC that was a part of the trouble.
ghosty hasn't been on Dakka much from what I hear.
Generally though, I think most of the vets are still around and there's more than enough new gamers to compensate.

I still need to get out of the habit of doing over-ambitiously long events. Just ask my Space Hulk players.

Thanks

If you get it up Dark, you can be sure that i will enter.

JP has been MIA for months,haven't heard from him at all, which could be problematic as his character was still active.
Ghosty is on and off, but as you recall his character had " run off into the woods", so as good as it would be to have him rejoin...it isn't a " Must".
Karon...Karon..Karon, I think...maybe..towards the end ...he started to understand what all the sabre rattling was about, I wouldn't have a problem with him re-joining...so long as , well...you and I covered all that to death.

As for "overly ambitious " events, I think it's in your nature to shoot for them Darko, and that's all well and good, so long as they are coming in a timely manner....I find RPs work better if they are done at a decent pace, though that isn't always possiable.

Yeah, I think most of the old players are still around...and some "new blood" is always a good thing, overall I think bringing RZ&LWC back is more than doable.

i have an idea. lets use this as an advertisement thread like sir cat said (kinda) that way we dont flood people with a bunch of RPs that go nowhere,instead if enough interest is in one here,we then post it up cause we know it has people.

That was the general idea, seeing as how my previous dedicated thread for RP discussion/ideas/planning failed miserably.

didnt it get the off topic nuke dropped on it?

If only.. No, it died from lack of use.

Darkvoidof40k wrote:If only.. No, it died from lack of use.

ok.lets not let this one. it should be sticky-ed and renamed.

That's one of the reasons that this board needs a mod or two.

try spamming one about that. as for this...hmmmm...might post my hell RP just to show what i have,but still havent gotten some things from people ive PMed for help :shrug: (needs to be one!)

To be honest, I think RZ&LWC can easily come back, we already have enough players who I think would be willing to join again (myself included, Falco has so much more to do!), but the only thing we'll need is a new GM...

... that is, Dark, unless you want to continue with the role...

I will be continuing it as it was my mess and my unfinished storyline.

Look forward to it Dark...

... mainly seeing as you never did an event for Falco...

... and have never, ever, ever, done me an event...

Join Space Hulk and you'll enjoy lots of attention as all my players have.

But, Darko, you know I hate missing out on plotline...

... otherwise I seriously would...

Darkvoidof40k wrote:Join Space Hulk and you'll enjoy lots of attention as all my players have.

If I join, do I have to read all of it so far to understand, or just the last little bit?

Reading 20 pages to get up to speed with stone was bad enough, but 40...



Also, mabey we should make a sticky thread about how to play RPG's (Or possibly use the one I made and asked the MODs to sticky), and also one about how to create a RPG and be a good games master. That could be a good way to increase the number of good RPs and reduce the number of bad ones.

Space Hulk is a very good read. However the story really hasn't advanced particularly far. Hell the majority of posts from pages 20-30 are just mindless spam *glares at Scrazza*.

My usual policy is to make people read the entire thread, but as it really isn't that complicated, just make sure you've all read the first and also the most recent event.

If y'all have any questions or just generally want more information, PM me and/or some of the players such as Warork, Scrazza, Harrab or Gorskar.

Ok, i'll have a look and might join.

And thus the hypno-kitty claims another soul.

Darko, the only way I'll ever consider joining it is if you give a good argument why I should...

Well for one thing I'm in it, which gives it ten billion man points as it is.


Nah, serious argument time.

To be honest Kaiser, it's a fun game with a lot of potential and a plethora of interesting characters. It's very unique and contains virtually every single one of the main "species" from the Warhammer 40,000 universe. There's a lot of very talented fiction writers partaking in the game - some of the best Dakka has to offer. I don't think we've had any inter-player feuds, so everyone is in good spirits and it has a nice feel to it. Players have a great deal of freedom with regards as to what they want to do, and I've put a lot of work into it to make it as good as possible.

There's my two cents on the game.

Need more cents, but so far...

... intrigued...

Thing is, Dark, I have been keeping a not-so-close eye on Space Hulk recently, and I am fairly interested...

... would I have to make an intro where my ship goes to it or whatever...

... and if I join my character may be a Shas'O...

EDIT: Just had an idea, am I alloud to recruit people to it?

After watching the horribly disturbing video, Dog of Man, (I recommend not touching it with a nine and a half foot poll, but do whatever you want, I warned you) I was inspired to create an RP centered around a group of individuals trapped in an abandoned asylum/lab/subway/etc, and they must find they're way out. A bored male British voice named John guides the players, offering advice and giving background information about the are as the party progresses. Sanity would be an important factor, a low Sanity score would cause hallucinations and paranoia. One of the players would secretly be a skinhusker, a horrible extradimensional monster that parades about in it's victims skin, and their goal would be to see everyone in the party either dead or insane. This needs a lot of refinement, but I like the idea. What're your thoughts?

Interesting.. but both of us are GMs as well as being involved in at least one or more other roleplays.. won't be easy to manage. I'd be interested.. but I'm not sure how many roleplays I can juggle effectively.

Hey Kais...

... why do you always ...

... type like this ...

...It makes me think ...

...you're going to say ...

...something witty ...

Totally agreed Kasrkai, I'm glad someone pointed it out before I went berserk on him for it.
