I’m thinking of running a game of Expedition over IRC at some point soon. The game would be a simple dungeon one-shot – you would start with an amount of Expedition Points give by me, to you, in order to expedite adventuring through one or two levels of a dungeon (or as far as we can get in like 4 or 5 hours). There’ll be fights, traps, and a little bit of roleplaying, though not a huge deal because this isn’t really meant to be a whole game experience, just testing some stuff. I haven’t actually GMed over IRC for ages now, so I may be a bit slow on the uptake, but I will try my best to give you a fun little test of the game. If you can’t make a character, I’ll probably have some written up, albeit I still don’t have a form-fillable sheet ready.
I’d like to have four players, optimally. I don’t really have the time to commit to a solid IRC campaign, so the IRC stuff is quite likely going to be one shots here and there to test out perks and things. As it stands, I don’t have any required perks I want to see, though I’d like to have one of each normal class, no monster classes. Later on if possible I’ll ask to test out the monster party, and then a mixed party. For this particular session we probably won’t be fighting a Leader monster. Anyway, if you’re interested, leave a comment with times and dates within the next week you might be able to make. I can make probably anything. I’m in the Eastern time zone.
If anybody would be interested in an actual campaign I can run one by forum. Or on google wave, since that actually still exists for some reason. Not google plus though, that’s way too funky for me right now.
Definitely intrigued. I’ll get back to you on times and dates, I live in the EST as well. (Also, I find that Google Docs also works very admirably for play-by-post gaming…though it doesn’t quite have all the functionality of Wave.)
Huh, I’ve never thought of using google documents. Might have to give that a shot sometime.
