Systems Recap

Remember when I said I was going to shelve Savage Worlds and focus on Dragonbane, Captain’s Log, and Dungeons & Dragons with the Mythic Game Master Emulator?

Well, 1 out of 3 was accomplished.

And while I still do plan on starting Dragonbane and Dungeons and Dragons, I’m re-adding Savage Worlds Adventure Edition to the mix, using Pulp Fantastic as the setting.

Along with The One Ring.

In the last month or so I’ve been delving into reaction videos for The Lord of the Rings, and *tried* to continue watching Rings of Power.  The latter never got done, and after reviewing the game system, I’m going to play The One Ring with Strider Mode, the solo system for TOR.

Pulling Back

I think I have too many proverbial irons in the fire.

So I’m reluctantly shelving Savage Worlds and Marvel Multiverse RPG for the time being.

Focus will be on Dragonbane, Captain’s Log, and Dungeons & Dragons with the Mythic Game Master Emulator.

I didn’t get too deep into Savage Worlds and Marvel, having learned most of the mechanics and character creation through YouTube videos.

YouTube

I have to admit that I don’t know why it took me so long to use YouTube the way I have over the past few weeks.

In that time I’ve gotten a better (full) understanding of the basic game mechanics of at least 3 4 different RPG systems that I’ve owned for more than a few years, but never sat down to really learn any of them.

  • Star Trek Adventures
  • Dragonbane
  • Savage Worlds Adventure Edition
  • edit: Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game

And other video tutorials are enticing me to learn more about still others.

Heck, I may finally learn how to play GURPS.

Stand by!

There’s been an awakening…

… have you felt it?

Between watching YouTube videos on Solo RPGs and reviews on the systems that I own, I feel more ready than ever to finally get things started with…

How I let this one sit on my shelf for this long without taking a good look at it is a crime.

It really feels like everything I want to get out of a Fantasy Solo RPG experience, and it’s all coming out of one box.

No Mythic GM Emulator needed, though i may use that later, either for this of if I decide to go back to D&D 5E.

I made a DUCK KNIGHT for crying out loud!  I’ll probably try him out in combat when I get home from work.

Stand by!

Close But Indecisive

I’ve hit a snag as I’ve been finishing up reading the Mythic Game Master Emulator.

I can’t decide which system I want to run first.

I thought I had settled on either Dragonbane or Covert Ops, but I’m feeling the pull of something simple/familiar with 5th Edition D&D , Top Secret New World Order, and a couple of others.

I’ll get it all sorted out, eventually.

System: Dragonbane

This one was a tough choice because of the numerous fantasy RPG settings that are available to play.

It was a Kickstarter, so that kinda played into my decision.

In the end, it’s the simple fact that I can play a duck (Mallard) character in this system that made me decided on this one.
