So, as promised yesterday, here's the update on my Roleplaying life.
The last two games I've run, which I believe I blogged about, were Space: 1889 (Entitled Batman and the Martian Dilemma) and Legend of the Five Rings (3rd Edition) (The Many Paths of Heaven).
Batman and the Martian Dilemma (so called because the 'Jeeves' character served as the 'Wooster' character's batman in India and that's just our flavour of wacky) went swimmingly. A session report is under construction currently by Rhiannon and the group has requested more - which is very reassuring as I didn't know that the game would work at all. I had thought that the plot was a bit ham-fisted and was worried about railroading the players into playing a Jeeves and Wooster story, but they didn't seem to feel it was a problem and went with the wackiness.
L5R seemed to go even better in its own way. returning from a ten month hiatus and introducing new players at first seemed daunting, but once everyone was in the room, it went beautifully. The session report is here if you feel so inclined. The feedback has been great (one of the new players has been trying to develop his character in five different directions during down time and he keeps trying to pin me down to a date for the next session), but I felt that the combat in the session dragged a bit - I need to find ways to speed it up, or have more villains who are willing to give up.
I'd really like to get in some InSpectres or Fiasco over the weekend and I've semi-signed up to run Legend of the Five Rings (4th Edition) at my FLGS for Free RPG Day, if anyone is in the neighbourhood.
More to come!
