I've been thinking about what I want to do gaming-wise in the coming weeks and months. This late in the year, there's really no point in trying to get a new home campaign off the ground, so I've got some time to think about this, but I'm pretty sure I've got something resembling a plan.
1. Write Old School Hero: I'm definitely going to do this, even if much of the project is transcription/editing, rather than anything creative and new. I think it'll help me get in touch with my gamer roots again. (Late December 2011)
2. Write and Run the Feng Shui Adventure at Owlcon: I'm already committed to this, so I have to write it, possibly play-test it, and run the games (January 2012)
3. Kick Off a New Home Campaign: Probably Star Wars Saga Edition. Anything I run at home has to include my son (he's old enough), and if I want my wife to play, it has to be something other than fantasy, so that rules out D&D of any flavor and a lot of other games. SWSE rocks, the Kiddo loves him some Star Wars, the Missus can be persuaded to play an ass-kicking space princess, and I think I stand a decent chance of attracting other players. (First Quarter 2012)
It's a plan. We'll see if I can hold to it.
I almost wish my group didn't like D&D4E as much as they do. I have a bunch of Star Wars Saga books but just haven't done much with them. Not sure the makeup of the group is right for the game I'd want to run anyway. I'll just settle for taking another crack at Pendragon's Grand Campaign.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the game plans!
