Gaming in Anticipation

[Deral]

I know at least a couple of you have mentioned the games you've got going in anticipation of Fantasy Craft or stories and games you're already planning, set to go as soon as the book reaches you.

So how many of us are there out there who've got something ready or already underway for this upcoming system? I figure this would be as good a place as any to share and discuss what you've got going on, and it'll be fun to see what ideas everyone has going on.

I'll start with mine: Right now I'm running a distorted game of Scion, for those of you who don't know, Scion is a system based on Exalted 2nd Ed/oWoD where the players take on the role of god-spawn, eventually growing in power to the point of ascending to divinity.  I don't know too much detail about the settings that are coming with Fantasy Craft, and since the party will be dramatically altering the face of things I decided against setting up my own world for it and have modified Scion a bit to work in D&D's Forgotten Realms where the players will generally be making the world their own, eventually ascending to godhood and creating waves amongst their peers.

My first Fantasy Craft game will be set a century or more after the party's ascension, when the waves the party caused have calmed and settled, with the players taking on the roles of worshippers of their own or one another's former players, running around the altered world they created.

So, who else has something like this in mind? Let's hear it!

I plan to offer a Ptolus campaign shortly after FC drops. However, I'll likely (fingers are crossed) be moving to Germany from the U.S. around October, so who the hell knows what will really happen.

Hey, Aragathor can make your game that way.

As I've discussed with Auld Grump at various junctures, I think that Freeport seems like the perfect venue for FantasyCraft.

Or you could just take the setting from 10kB (dialed back a few hundred years) and the rules from FantasyCraft

(Freeport would be good, too)

Take Empire City and adjust it for FC... very nice!!

[Krensky]

If I can find time, I'd like to run one of the Pathfinder APs with FC. There's also my modern fantasy thing I've mentioned a few times. I'll need to put something up about that at some point, I suppose.

Only thing I have planned is my turning Greyhawk on its ear with the Temple of Elemental Evil using FC.

FC won't come fast enough.

Converting Al-Qadim.

Why yes, I am gorram insane.

[Aragathor]

Converting Al-Qadim.

Why yes, I am gorram insane.

Hehe, converting that one will be easy, because:

The first thing I'm going to do after getting the book will be ripping it apart (mechanically speaking) to create a set of FC origin creation templates
The second thing will include creating several new origins, among them some Al-Qadim ones.
After that it's an open thing.

It's not just the (possibly easy) work, which I'm generally never prepared for.  It's that I'm gonna do it, and it's going to sit in a folder, unused for me.

That, and figuring out a way to make the sha'ir not suck while keeping the same flavor.  Another reason why I am very interested in Spellbound.  I'm trying to puzzle out a road map.

I managed to run a half-fantasy game in Spycraft by virtue of Spellbound and Origin of the Species and improvising in between, turned out pretty fun, I'd be interested to hear about yours.

I ran a brief fantasy game using Spycraft set in Freeport.  Only problem was that my blackpowder weaponry was a bit...squiffy...

Hmmm, I was, recently, planning on holding off on the steamarchaeology game until FantasyCraft comes ot, but seem to have been dragooned into running it prematurely early. (I ain'tn't done plannin' yet! Dagnabbit!) I also have plans for converting my homebrew - based on the 17th century Wars of Religion.

I was thinking about running Fallout in the interim, but got out voted.  They want light and silly Edisonades, not post-Apocalyptic black humor. So, ghostly Celts next week, whether the second scenario is ready or not. (And right now it is most decidedly not!)
