Hello all, I am wanting to start a new UA campaign set in the present/future. In the story the players will become abducted by an alien race and taken to a distant world where the in habitants are beings (all D&D races and classes) of medieval origin. The "aliens" have taken the group hostage and have placed them in their personal "zoo" to "study" them. the aliens (controlled by me the DM) are the ones in control of every aspect of the zoo. All players (except those that are in habitants of the world) will be human, or humanoid. I haven't completely worked out the details yet.
The game will be a PBP (Play-By-Post) campaign on a new forum that I am currently working on. If the game becomes a success, then I will most likely move it to either Discord or Roll20 for live play.
This is an official request for those who would be interested in playing and joining a group. I have none as of yet as this is only a idea. If I get enough people who want to join, then I will make it a reality within a week or two. If you would like to sign up for this campaign, let me know in a reply below, or you can log onto my first forum that is already in operation called naerakingdom.freeforums.net . That forum is a fully operational game in progress, so if you are inquiring about this new campaign, please contact the Administrator of that forum and specify that you are interested in the UA campaign, that way the current DM of that game will be able to let me know about your interest.
Or you can simply reply to this message here. I will be checking back here on a regular basis. As I said, this is only an idea I would like to do, but only if I have enough players interested in joining.
I'd be interested in playing in this game, it sounds quite different but I can surely get behind that. The only thing is that I have played plenty of games via discord but not via forum post. Is the main difference that the posts are longer and less frequent? In any case, I'm down. How many people would you consider 'enough?'
i cant go to your link unless i make a acount there. is there mabey a way that we can do this with discord? also wich lv do we start with? what are the times you can or can we discuss it?
i have a lot of quistons and i believe others also have can you put more info in your post about these things? mabey you already have the info on the site you linked. i am sorry but i dont want to create a account just to see a post.
i like the idea i might want to join depending on the time and where we do pbp.
I'm actually thinking of going to Discord or Roll20, discord is a bit complicated for me and the software runs quite slow. I will most likely use Roll20 instead. I'm having some issues with the forum which is why the "guest' account isn't working. You can contact me on Roll20 my roll20 account name is Tom T.
To answer some of the questions, I'm looking for at least 5 - 10 players, no more than that as I don't think I could keep up with more than 10. Most likely all players will start at level 1 to get things started, but after about 4 to 5 sessions raise everyone to level 5. As far as day and time, that's still in the open, we'll have to figure that out as players sign up and try to come up with some sort of balanced time period.
I already have my story line figured out and worked out the kinks in the game to accomodate the modern aspect, the rest of it just falls right into place with no problem as it will be dealing with all races and classes. I am currently working on all of my NPCs as well. I am an experienced NOVICE DM so I may get a little rusty on some of the mechanics, but with help from the players I can usually learn quickly.
If we do start out on the forum (I will get that fixed) until the roll20 or discord is set up, the way we do it (I currently have a game in progress on the forum) is we all log on at a given day and time, we then begin posting our game messages, the only thing is you have to refresh your web page to see replies every few minutes. This hasn't been aproblem though. We have our own dice rolling system right on the forum. I definately will be moving from the forum though to either roll20 or discord. Like I said, most likely roll20 because of the software issues with discord, unless I can work those out. Any more questions, just ask here. I check back here every day.
Oh and no offense taken.....I know freeforums is starting to get a bit sluggish lately, but hey..it's free, what can you expect? I will take new players and experienced, I would also like to get a "guest" DM to join in so I can have an experienced DM on hand if I get into any trouble with anything.
My discord is Prince Xylan#3851 I'm not sure how to use it yet, but if anyone can help me, let me know and maybe someone could walk me through the system as to how to set up a game on there.
Ok, I have decided to set the game up. I will be starting it out on the forum, but will be moving it to either discord or roll20 once we get going good.I will definately be starting the game.
If you want to join the game, let me know and I will give you the website address where you can join. You will have to register with the forum to join, but it only takes about 2 minutes to register. I will immediately give you access once your register. If you want to join let me know here. We will start when I have enough players. The time will be EST and I will let you know when once I am ready to start.
I would Love to try this out but I'm kind of new to dnd if that is ok. I have role played with my friends via the internet but mainly learning the rules and ropes will be the main thing. I am willing to learn with this interesting game set and I consider myself a fast learner on most subjects, but as such I'd only be willing to join if you were ok with teaching. I will try my best not to be a bother as I learn with this interesting plot.
Great! You are are welcome. Yes, newbs are quite welcome as I am a sorta new DM myself. I have someone who can help me out when I get into a fix though. We can teach you as you need it. Like I said, we'll be starting out on the private forum, but will definately be moving to either discord or roll20 as the game progresses. I am only using the forum to get started good and establish the game story. You can all log on to scifiworld.freeforums.net and register. It only takes about 2 minutes to register and I will upgrade your membership within 24 hours. There is a complete game explanation on the sister forum naerakingdom.freeforums.net that explains the story in better detail. You can register there as a guest and read it. It is located in the Game News board. Everyone interested please go ahead and register with Sci Fi World, as that is where we will be starting out. I'll explain more once you get there. Just be sure to PM me once you log on, I am the Admin (Guarin) on the forum. I will help you get started. I haven't set up a specific time or day yet, so everyone who signs up need to let me know the best times and days they are available. We are in the EST time zone. I don't have the actual game board online yet, it will be withing a few days from today though. I am really looking forward to starting this game. I'm very excited about doing something different than I am used to. This should be a fun and exciting game for everyone. We still need more players, so if you are intersted, please let me know.
Looking forward to playing with all of you. Happy gaming folks. Oh and I'm a nice DM and I am easy to get along with. I'm still learning things myself.
We are still taking players ,if you want to join, please let me know. We will be starting out on the forum, but will eventualy move to discord or roll20. Also the time and day has not been established yet, please let me know what times and days are good for you when you sign up. The new forum is scifiworld.freeforums.net .Again, this is only temp. until the game gets going good and I see how participation goes.
OK, the game is official, all I need are a few more players, I'm going to limit it to only 10 players. We will be using the scifiworld.freeforums.net RPG forum for the time being. The game day will most likely be Friday, however the exact time has not been established yet. It is looking to be somewhere between 2 to 7 pm EST. Game sessions will be 3 hours long. Only live games will be held as there are two games on the forum at this time. Live games are played by all players logging onto the forum at the given times and posting messages on the game board in "real time". To do this all you have to do is refresh your web page to see responses. We have our own dice roll system in place and instructions on using it is included on the forum. Maps will also be available once I finish with them. I will be the DM for this game and will be using two types of NPCs. One type is actually an NPC using the forum's NPC system, they other will actually be "BOTS" which are members controlled by me. I do this to keep my NPC list down to a minimum. This game is going to be fun and exciting, so if you wish to join us, feel free, there is still time to get onboard.

Oh, one last thing...we will use the D&D 5e system for the UA campaign.
