What's happening in my games?
It was a fun question on the subreddit r/osr - "What's happening in your game currently?"
... and it reminded me that maybe I am a little crazy.
I am ten years into my AD&D/1e campaign. The basic premise is that the world has suffered an apocalypse and civilization is declining. What will you (the players) do?
I currently host three separate games in this world.
1 - long running tabletop game, we meet monthly in Gurnee, IL. Takes place on the eastern side of the continent.
Currently, the players are deep in a dungeon, seeking to free human slaves from the Bestials and recover a legendary sword. They just came to an underground fortress that appears ancient and menacing. I may, or may not, be adapting a Dyson Logos map or two for this lovely area.
2 - Online play-by-post, this iteration is about 4 years running - Takes place on the southwest corner of the continent. We just moved the game to my Discord server from Rizzoma, but the move is going well!
Players are exploring an abandoned city to help the Elves find their lost homeland. They are also in a dungeon, exploring a burnt temple.
3 - Online virtual tabletop, meets every other Tues - This game takes place in the north/northwest corner of the continent.
The players are exploring an old ruined castle, which seems to have become the outpost for a warband of Bestials (kobolds, goblins, orcs) and black-robed humans! They're doing a great job of clearing out the place so far... but the hardest test is facing them.
I also host wargames in my world. I have a solo wargame campaign going on that affects the tabletop and online virtual tabletop games (the PbP is ongoing, but it is much slower in time elapsing, so they won't be affected). I haven't had much time to invest in this, having made painting miniatures a priority for the past 6 months or so. I'm feeling the need to push lead around though...
