where you from?
never played this system but it's my zone

Scandinavia;
If you've never played any of the CoC systems you might want to do some reading up on the rules, but it's a somewhat basic d100 system.

I failed to add; We're playing the first session on Monday 15th

I make good first impressions

What's the quality of players found through Gamefinder, anons? Is this the right thread to ask about it?

Probably not if we don't want shitstorms.
That said, I've had mixed luck; about half to 3/4ths of the people who reply will be competent with the occasional sperg.

I have never had a bad experience with Gamefinder, I might be in a minority though.

Directly above you is a frogposter claiming to make good first impressions. Take that as you will.

Your parents wish you were better

I can't speak for anyone else here, but I've used the gamefinder exactly one time, and got two responses, one of which showed up and was actually a cool player that fits my game well.

Obviously this is anecdotal, but might as well give it a try.

Varies as with any other gamefinding medium, you run into the same people in different games sometimes but they're generally all pretty okay

The forum was kind of clunky to manage, I've moved over to a Discord now.

>discord.gg/W2ece8m

I've only posted once as a GM and all the players I got are at least ok, and a couple are actually quite good. All the GMs I've responded to were either flakes or tools, though.

The less popular a system is that you advertise, the better off you are for grabbing players. They can't just jump to another group (like D&D, 40k, WoD, etc.), since there won't be another one to latch on to for a session of play. It forces them to commit or not play at all.

I have found several players worth playing with and a few GMs, but things tend to go astray anyways.

If you're looking for a very specific type of game or group or style, you're probably going to struggle. If you're able to handle change, compromise and go with the flow you should be able to find some games.

I've almost always had good games, but I don't play trash-juice systems like D&D, so maybe that's why.

what do you play

Eh, I always look for obscure games here and never get hits

GURPS, some shadowrun, and a few various other things. Even the worst in that list are better than D&D.

dumb frogposter

>dumb frogposter

dude I honestly wasn't prepared for this level of banter... I wish you would have warned me.

bump

Anyone doing a mecha game? got a hankering for a mecha game..

Last time I posted in gamefinder looking for mecha I got roped up in an AdEva game.

P.S.: AdEva as a system sucks.

Not that guy, but as someone who's suffered playing Pathfinder and 3.5, how bad is AdEva really? I can handle some unintuitive shit to pilot the damn robot.

From what ive played of ADEva and from what i remember, it was pretty bad.

Look at the hinge in the middle and the placement of the bayonet, it's obviously an over-under break-action rifle.

GM

Easier to list what I haven't played. I've got a couple game ideas I'll post below.

CDT/UTC-5 Literally free at all times for a month, then will have some afternoons eaten through summer. Weekends only starting Sept.

Anything but skype. Was gonna say text but my mic magically started to work again. Maybe it'll last.

>Cthulhu Invictus: Alexandria ca. 78 AD in the twilight of Vespasian's reign. Alexandria has become a refugee city hosting a sizable Jewish and Christian population swelling into a truly cosmopolitan zone at the fringe of the Empire's reach. Your illustrious and benevolent patron, Quintus Avidius Falto, has sent out a runner as the last of the night's wine was finished requesting you arrive for salutatio before daybreak.

>Maztica: notAmazonian bands trying to deal with the cycle of growth and collapse that the city dwellers across the mountains (notInca). I'd really like to simulate some tribal and Andean cultures and MAYBE implement a playtest for some civ building rules I whipped up from Fudge and Aria, if the group is so inclined. Will probably impose some harsh race/class restrictions at first but this can maybe be negotiated, Maztica already had a poverty of races. Likely 5e just for ease of finding players despite the narrow setting....Everyone's sorta familiar with Rome so if you want more information on what I have in mind for this setting just contact for details.

My regular group is going through serious life shit, so I'd like to get a semipermanent game going. Not looking for: /pol/, anit/pol/, excessive autism (complaining, whining, entitlement, etc.), lewd. Am looking for: experienced players (has played sessions of something other than D&D), Veeky Forumsfags, sane rational adults. Msg me with which you'd rather play and why, and when the first game to hit three or four serious replies I'll send out links for notes/books and make a roll20 or whatever.

I've only been picked up once or twice, but I've liked everyone I've played with. Some of the best players I've seen in one case.

>excessive autism (complaining, whining, entitlement, etc.)
To be clear I don't mean "don't question me" but rather try not to ramble off topic about how much you hate [things] or throw a fit if someone other than you does or gets something cool.

What's the system for the first game?

Cthulhu Invictus is a supplement for CoC. There are versions for 5e and 6e, and I saw a KS for a 7e version but I don't know if that's out.

What does Cthulhu Invictus add to the game?

Ancient Rome.
