The Borderlands of Cormyr - an old game that we have been running for 5 years is starting back up again! A few of the players are more interested in domain play, so we have been doing a lot of skirmishes & wargaming using the chainmail rules. Most men survived the last few battles with a goblin horde of over 600 goblins - they have returned, and many are now taking their hand at becoming adventurers! The party will likely consist of lower level players, perhaps with one or two higher levels, so it is a good time to start. The town of Tilverton, north-east of the Cormyr area in the Forgotten Realms world, has been besieged by goblins as of late. The party has just heard rumors of a goblin kingdom in the nearby Thunder Peak mountains, which is likely the source of all these attacks. There is also the feared Harondalbar dragon that has been laying siege to the stonelands and Cormyr settlements to the west - the party has decided best to leave him be for now, but perhaps there is more to the story than just goblins... The idea for the game will be to use Chainmail for the overworld encounters (i.e. battles with over 200 or so men), and OD&D or perhaps OSE or B/X for the dungeon delving. Once your characters become heroes or heroes -1 (level 3 fighter) your character becomes quite powerful and harder to kill, but characters will feel pretty fragile at lower levels. Expect a lot of deaths, but hopefully that can be avoided with ingenuity and some luck.

The Deep

Explore ancient dungeons in an old world. There are rumors that many treasures and even ancient artifacts found deep below the earth. The tunnels and dungeons maze throughout the underground - perhaps remnants of a long forgotten civilization. The stories of this place are wild and fantastical - a large contrast from the monotony and ordinary struggles of the world above. One thing in the stories is consistent - people call this place "The Deep". I am starting an old school OSR game using OD&D. I am using a slightly customized version of the Chainmail combat system to run the game. So far, the combat has felt fun while also being lethal and tactical. I'm planning on using Chainmail mass-combat rules for overland travel if there are enough troops on both sides. There is no need to know the rules to have fun with it, and I'm available to help create characters as well. We have ran a few sessions so far - the players could definitely use some help in the dungeon as there have been a few deaths so far. It is definitely a dangerous game, but should be a lot of fun! If you are interested in joining let me know - we are planning to start back up after the New Year every Wednesday at 6:30pm Pacific Time. Now is a good time to join since most characters are still level 1 and there is a lot to explore!
