The Official Living Forgotten Realms Thread

[Rurouni Benshin]

Welcome everyone!

First of all, I'd like to express my thanks to Bill, Todd, Steve D., Rick, Tom, John and Pete for coming down to Battlegrounds for a fun day of "Weekend in the Realms".  I look forward to seeing you all join me again at BG for another day of LFR.

That being said, I'd like to start planning a schedule for LFR gaming on at least a bi-weekly basis.  I think Saturday mornings work well for this group, so for now we will work on a tentative every other Saturday schedule.  If there are schedule conflicts, please let me know as soon as you can, so I can adjust the schedule.  I want to keep this as consistent as possible though.  If there's a day during the week that works better for everyone, please let me know.  Once we get settled into playing on a regular basis, I think things will settle down much easier.

Also, please encourage other friends who are interested in the living campaign to come play a session or two.  The cornerstone behind every gaming group is having a strong core of players.  Eventually, I'd like to see at least 2 or 3 more tables running LFR games at BG, so let's bring 'em in while we can guys.

Alright, down to business.  How does Saturday November, 8th work for everyone?  I'm thinking about scheduling two regional adventures, and I GUARANTEE that the cool bundles you find in these modules will do your hard working PC's much more justice.

If Saturdays aren't ideal, then please let me know what your general availabilities are.  Thanks again, guys.

Saturdays work for me but it has to be twards the AM since I have to report to work at 3. Also  have a real real hard time getting up by 10 let alone being there at 10. My sleep cycle i smessed up because of my job. So I roll out around 11:30 or 12:00 also every other saturday I have other comittments.

[Unit04]

Saturday's are the only time I'll really be able to make it to Battleground.  So far the 8th looks good.

How did you make the character sheets?  I want to update mine and I'd rather do it electronically if possible.

[Narkos]

Hey so is there a set time to show up on saturdays cause I can get there depending on time and im really interested in playing.

[Rurouni Benshin]

Steve,
I'm glad you decided to drop us a line.  If what you need is a wake up call, I will be more than happy to help; anything that will help you get to the store easier.

Pete,
For now, we will schedule our games for Saturdays.  For now, I'm going to go with the day that works best for everyone, and so far Saturday seems to be that day.  If you're interested in the program I used for making the PC, go to this website.

The program you want is 4E Weisbaden Character Sheet.  It's the equivalent from the 3.5 Hero Forge, and you can download it for free.  I highly recommend it.

AJ,
Our next scheduled game is going to be Saturday, November 8th at 10:00 am, when the store opens.  Is that a good time for you?


Please feel free to ask whatever other questions you may have guys.
Talk to you all later,
~Ben

[DrhankPhD]

I should definitely be available on that date, unless something very unexpected pops up.

Can't wait to play again! 

[cursedchidori]

Nov 8th should be no problem for me as well i should be able to show up myself.

[Rurouni Benshin]

That's great, guys.  I'll post up the name of the module(s) I'll run once I've ordered them.  Hopefully, we'll get just as good a turn out, if not better than last time.

~Ben

[Narkos]

ya that should be fine for me and this sounds like a stupud question but are you allowing the new forgotten realms players guide?

[Rurouni Benshin]

are you allowing the new forgotten realms players guide?

Yes, all the splash books are LFR legal.  You can be a Genasi or Drow, or a Swordmage.  Just be sure your PC remains on a 22 point buy.

I'll post the module(s) and the blurb for each once I've ordered them, which will be within the next couple of days.  The muster list will be up then as well.

Thanks, AJ.

[Hierophant]

Ben, can anyone drop down and play in these?  I can't make the 8th unfortunately, but in general I should be able to show up pretty regularly.

[Chase]

Yup, that's the beauty of a Living game.

Tables are limited to 6 players and each module has a level range that it's meant to be run at, but otherwise yeah, anyone can come with a character and play.
