The campaign will not take place in the Marvel Universe, but on an alternate Earth where superheroes have been around since the turn of the 20th century. Join other superhumans and vigilantes on patrol and misadventures against mad scientists, archvillains, and all manner of bad guys.

MHRP rulebooks and cheatsheet available on request.

I'm not denying it's not my own fault, but I wish I could run one without it being a absolute disaster because I always pre-plan everything because of my bad improv.
I still think it deserves to be a more popular system.

Ditto me and Degenesis.

Ongoing game. Players are currently level 6. We in the course of our travels got cursed and bound to serve on a ghost pirate ship (which actually just got destroyed). PCs have various different reactions to that state of affairs.

We would probably be fine with that.

I've got a horror game set in Tolfino, British Columbia, during the 1993 Clayoquot protest. I like to run games that go heavy on the roleplaying and mystery side of things so if you're a fan of combat heavy games this won't be for you. But, if you do like those things, and you want to play as a bunch of schmucks in the 90s getting caught up in shit they never planned for, then feel free to email me.

>There's still GMs for it right?
Yes, but you're half the world away and I seem to recall someone bitching about you.
Godspeed, though.

Even if it's an ERP?

Yes.

If it's at midnight I can make it, and all I remeber of people bitching about me in any of these threads was when one faggot tried to say that I was a furry who played Felinids in Dark Heresy
archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/47714430/#47774053
ala this guy, I don't think you know how much bad blood and shittalk typically goes in these threads because there are people who want to ensure someone who gives them minor inconveinces no chances of finding a game.
Atleast from what I know of some games that I found myself in that I had fun with people in.

I think what some people might've disliked about me is that occasionally I make gimmicky characters but not unoptimized ones, like my Bretonnian knight who found lances and shields boring and unworthy to his foes and instead he wrestled them and beat them with his bare hands.
I don't do it all the time but you know, I like to do it when it's fun for everyone and it's not horribly unoptimized.

>Additional Notes
I'd like to run a short, one-shot game in my custom setting, in order to get a feel for the reaction people have to it. In addition, I'll be testing out Wushu, which is a very simple system for action-oriented games. The game will be similar to a shonen anime like One Piece or Dragon Ball Z, and there will be a lot of fighting and action. If you're into that, perhaps you'd be interested in the game. I do expect a heavy emphasis on roleplaying over mechanics, which is the primary reason I am using the Wushu system. If you are looking for a mechanics-heavy game, this one isn't for you.

>System
Wushu. You can get the rulebook for free online, although it's a very rules-light system; I can explain them to you easily if you'd like.

>Times Available
I am usually available starting at something like 1700 CST, staying awake until morning. Ideal for European players, but obviously anyone is welcome.

>Method of Play
Since Wushu is so rules-light, we will probably just use Discord with a dice bot.

>Contact Info
You can join the Discord server here if you would like to contact me: discord.gg/Rf4u5CT

You can also just reply to this post if you would like to ask questions before joining Discord.

What is the setting like? What would the basic plot be like?

>lots of fighting and action
>using what's essentially a freeform system

literally why

so people can actually describe what they're doing without restriction? freeform, if you will? you must be clinically retarded there user

>implying Freeform isn't the most shonen-like of fighting systems

"I attack!"

"I dodge and counterattack!"

"Yeah, well I have a secret power that defeats your weakness!"

"Yeah, but I have a secret power that defeats your weakness!"

Pic related.

I've got a long history of taking part in freeform games involving combat.

I rarely won a single encounter because I don't like outright negating people's attacks, and would prefer characters that would take hits(but had supernatural toughness so that I could at least deal with bullshit shonen techniques).

Kinda anticlimatic and bullshit. It's part of the reason why I left ERP in general.

Here is a very basic overview of the setting pulled from my notes:

>You live on Alexandria, a supermassive Alderson disk surrounding the star Ra. Constructed millennia ago by an ancient pantheon known as the Authors, it is home to the mysterious pocket dimensions called STORYBOOKS. Inside each one is a unique world to explore, with its own rules, people, and places to discover. You might journey to an underwater city populated by dangerous aquatic creatures, or perhaps you might find an Author’s laboratory, filled with ancient secrets and technology.

>The four races of Alexandria - nomad, cattarac, konshin, and milus - work together to unravel the mystery of the storybooks and the Authors. The sprawling city of Serapeum, located in the Nile band, is the heart of Alexandrian civilization. From this central location, teams of explorers journey forth, hoping to find new storybooks, plundering the technology and information within. Grand airships circle overhead, and animal-drawn carriages regularly depart from the city limits.

As for the plot, it's something I'd either like to leave up to the players, since it's going to be a short one-shot, or I can simply throw you into the middle of something and have it get worked out during play. The setting is very flexible in this regard, and I have a few potential ideas for that situation.

I suppose you're worried about the players not actually wanting to lose or take hits? It's a real concern I have. That's one of the reasons I would like to test out the system first. I simply don't want players to feel restricted by having to fit their character into a set of rigid abilities laid out by the system. Perhaps it's too much freedom; that's what this game is for.

It's just the height of childishness to enjoy action in freeform. The meaning and value of interaction with a system comes from the context surrounding it. If you like drama in a game, the enjoyment comes not from narrating drama, but from seeing how it affects individuals inside a game that has grounding in some sort of social context.

Likewise, if you like action in a game, you're going to want to interact with a system that's actually a... system, and not stuff people pull out of their ass, or alternatively you don't actually like the action per se as you like the drama *surrounding* the action, how it affects the characters involved and what it means for them.

If you enjoy what literally boils down to a form of conflict resolution, then the system that settles conflict resolution in your game is going to need to be fun to play with, or the game is not going to be very interesting.

Or you're literally just a manchild who enjoys typing descriptions of how your ninja uses his katanajitsu to teleport behind someone, I guess, but I'm trying to give you more credit than that.

.......Wow, I'm the guy who shittalked freeform up there and even I think you're a pretentious asshole.

>explaining your views = pretentious

Okay fampai

...

i know this is weird but you dont have to play this guy's game

Well, yeah, and obviously I don't intend to, but that certainly won't stop me from commenting on it.

The timezones listed are times I'm okay with STARTING from, usually going on for the next 4 to 6 hours. So if you are European, we can start at 12:00pm, which is 6pm for Brits, 7pm for Central Europeans.

I feel like running a oneshot or minicampaign(6-8 sessions). I will be running with whoever I get, even if that's just two people. The game will be text based. It will most likely revolve around several time periods sharing a low fantasy theme. However, it can also do a mostly human dark setting with high fantasy elements, such as the Black Company books. If players are familiar with the Black Company books, I shall also run in that setting. If the systems presented are not to your liking, or you would like to request a sci-fi scenario, I'd be willing to consider it if I get the right people. Really, I'm keen to run anything, but I am feeling mostly pulled towards sword fights and such.

I'm down as a player for this too.

We have 3 players, looking for 2 more. We've had enough flakers, so please don't contact me unless you are confident in your ability to consistently show up for the game. Missing sessions for important life reasons is fine, but don't make a habit out of it.
I would like players that are interested in the world, or at the very least are familiar with it. If you don't know anything about it, read a little bit about the setting before you send me anything, just to make sure you are interested in it.

Probably going to be text based.

I might be interested. What is the system like, and what would the game be like?

Anima is a fantasy system with a large degree of player customization. It is based on the d100. I haven't heard details from the GM at this point as to what the specific setting will be.

How many players do you have right now? How many are you looking for?

This game isn't happening, this player is simply having an autistic rampage because he can't wait for me to find real players.

Holy shit I kind of wanted to try Anima.

If you would like you can give me your Skype and you could be considered, but no guarantees.

...

I am looking for 1-2 right now.

what

That player that made the initial post has removed me from his game because I am not hosting for him tonight, and is now recruiting to replace me in his other anima game :(

why the fuck can't you autists just play games without this drama

fuck it

Because I told him I would like to have a game with people who take their time making characters rather than make them in 15 minutes, but he simply can't wait one more week.

...

it's Veeky Forums man.

some people are looking for a game here to have fun.

other people are looking for a game here because they have nowhere else to look.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm fine with having players from Veeky Forums to play in the game, but he trying to cram it in tonight which would just make hosting not fun and mostlikey make the game not fun

I'm looking to replace a player in my Anima game, as the other person mentioned.

To put it simply, he was removed because "there ain't no such thing as a free lunch." I expect my players to occasionally GM a game, so that I can play as well. This player has promised to run a game "next weekend" for about 4 months straight, and originally scheduled his game for Saturdays, so when I asked to confirm that he would host, he said it wouldn't happen without other players. Of course he was only willing to recruit from the small pool of our regular group, and they aren't interested, so I advertised here instead, but he said he didn't want any players "from Veeky Forums" and made that post you saw earlier. Thus it is obvious to me that he will never host a game, and so I have barred him from playing in my games, and I am now looking for up to two players, 1 to replace him and 1 in order to round the party off to a group of 4.

The next session of my game is tomorrow, but if you don't feel that you can have a character ready by then it's not a big deal, because I normally host on Wednesdays, and that's when the session after next will be.

He is also mad that I didn't host my game on a day that I didn't say I was gonna host I. I have said Saturday for the past couple weeks waiting for players to make characters they never did and tonight he was really craving some roleplaying I guess and had a little spurg out. So go play in his game by all means, but if you would like to play in mine next weekend on Saturday feel free to reply with your Skype names. Looking for 3 players.

So the Saturday session is only a one off? You normally only run on Wednesdays?

Yes.

What needless drama

So you expect people to pay for the privilege of playing in your game by catering to you. To the extent that you want them to go out and actively get strangers involved to facilitate you playing. Clearly you must think GMing is a chore, or a job, and that you ought to be compensated for it. This does not bode well for anyone sane wanting you to GM for them.

^ I am just trying to make sure sense it is my first time really hosting anything that I have players that know the rules and how to make characters so that I can focus on running the game not holding the PC's hands, because I will need everything devoted to running the game well.

voice games are shit

Aye, less chance to mishear, ability to re-read stuff and more time to think

Text games are too slow. Too impersonal. They really lack the soul that makes role-playing so dang fun.

I don't understand you

Of course you don't.
