Playing some Pathfinder on PbP, Skulls and Shackles, Curse of The Crimson Throne and War For the Crown. Not sure if it's slower going than this game currently though How are your characters here? What are you playing?

What are you playing? Skulls and Shackles: Imagine Ysilla as a sorcerer...and a pirate War for the Crown: Imagine Marq Mooton as bard. Curse of The Crimson Throne: Inquisitor of Abadar modeled on Samuel Gerard and Inspector Javert...don't think there's a Southron Ambitions/BiTW/Dragonsdance/Great Bastards equivalent.

I’ve really enjoyed wrath of the righteous so far! Hope you are enjoying it too. Very much so, despite averaging out at around 10 bug reports a day, and having lost a few hours of a demon playthrough (I believe due to respeccing after Act 2 - the bug causing that is fixed, but corrupted saves are unsalvagable). Still a darn sight better than the 'literally everything is broken' launch of Kingmaker. Having great fun as a lich, having *finally* reached the stage of the game where I can start replacing my breathing companions for more ... vitally challenged ones. Glorantha is great too - thoroughly recommend King of Dragon Pass and Six Ages computer games. Excellent art and a different setting to many RPGs. Plus the mix of strategy/rpg level stuff and multi generational storylines will appeal to many a song of ice and fire RPG fans. Mixes the political with personal elements. Seconding this - especially the 3rd age Heortling Orlanthi barbarians (the people portrayed in King of Dragon Pass - I believe 6 Ages is the same, possibly with the serial numbers filed off). The world is *vast*, and they are only a small part of it (albeit one with a good amount of focus). But their culture and religion really hits the sweet spot for me of 'complex/alien enough to be interesting, simple/familar enough to be (mostly) understandable with a bit of effort'.

For those that played in Dragons Dance, or are merely curious, here's the Legend of the Five Rings adventure that served as an inspiration for the second full adventure in that game. "Fortunes Lost" by Tastes Like Phonenix games became "The King's Peace": christopherhepler.com/legend-of-the-five-rings/legend-of-the-five-rings-tournament-adventures/. They wrote some excellent RPG adventures that's I've adapted for various settings (as many of you know, I've essentially run "The King's Peace" twice for different groups).

Hi all! Going to be joining you soon as Lady Alysanne Flowers, wanted to introduce myself. Excited to be part of the story. Welcome! Fresh blood is always needed to keep games like this running, so don't be afraid to reach out if you feel you want help with something. (Though I see you've been registered for some time, so presumably you're at least roughly aware of what you're letting yourself in for.) A younger, childless Great Bastard?! Please tell me more. /quickly looks over his shoulder for poisoned darts. Pffft. I would never do that! Poisoned darts are so crude and inelegant. And I can't throw for shit.

Thank you for the welcome, and I'm sure to need plenty of help. Perhaps together we can teach Balon some manners. (but I doubt it.) Hi all!

Desktops down :/. Hoping to do something via cell tomorrow, but it probably won't be pretty.
