Its been along time since I've blogged anything but with the recent unpleasantness, it seems like a great time to start up again.
Now like most of you, I'm not gaming right now but I thought y'all might be curious as to what gaming I have done in the recent past
I tried Fantasy AGE which was an alright system. Played about 6 sessions and after that the game fizzled. Its a good game but you know, its not GURPS
I played three 5E campaigns none of which went past a coupe of levels. Did play the introductory adventure Mines of Phandelver even using the pre gens. It was pretty good and very good D&D
Played and ran a lot of 1 or 2 shot pick up games, too many to list here. The best I think was an Ancient Aliens inspired game somewhat resembling though pre dating the 2018 movie Kin . I ran this for quite a few sessions and the players really stepped up. There really wasn't much in the way of rules, more of interactive storytelling but it was fun for me and the two players.
Also turned down a GURPS Wild West. Its unusual for me to turn down a GURPS game but I didn't think the GM was up to it lore or system wise . The guys that playted said it was alright but I probably would not have had much fun.
Lastly I ran about 10 sessions of GURPS Conan with a bit of Game of Thrones added on. The players mostly had fun though no matter how many games you run you can always learn something new.
Generally it went well though I agree with my players I had too many ghost encounters and it needed a bit more work.
Frankly I'd love to revise the game or one like it but that's a while off if possible at all.
Anyway take care out there and good gaming.
