Talisman System Lancer TTRPG Game Master Noah Online TALISMAN, a sci-fi adventure set roughly 12000 years in the future. It'll be using the Lancer TTRPG system via Roll20, a "Mud & Lasers" game with a good mix of narrative play and bombastic combat. If you like the idea of piloting your own giant Mech suit, hacking into terminals with cybernetic implants, or stealing sought-after equipment from powerful MegaCorps, then this is the game for you. -------- Sometime in the millennium 2XXX, a catastrophic event dubbed “The Fall” decimated most of society, leaving us to struggle in the mess we created. Those who survived managed to spread their wings and form a great interstellar Union of countless star systems. The (give or take) 12,000 years it took to build this new utopia were fraught with violence, so it’s no surprise that remnants of these wars still remain today. You are a newly licensed, fully-fledged pilot of your own personal mechanised chassis (or ‘Mech’ for sho...

I got excited last week when the giant scissors we ordered arrived! I was nervous coming back to real world gaming and even more on edge as its the first game I have GMed in a very long time but i'm please to say it went better than could be expected!  A big thank you to everyone who came in, geled their hands and made last night fantastic!  WHO OPENS A CLUB ON THE SAME NIGHT AS THE SEMI FINALS!   Apparently we do...  Which means we was a few people short last night and hopefully next week we will see all three tables full but I really enjoyed eating cup cakes (Thank you richard) and giving out goodie bags (Thank you Foresters.)  As for the game! I was very nervous and even though I had wrote the story I kept having to refer to my own notes! Can't wait to see where this rag-tag bag of high level heroes end up!  .....................

Hi Mark, well me, yep you guessed it I am interviewing myself, as one of the three GMs for the inaugural games in venue, I thought of a bit of a mini interview on the 3 GMs would be cool. So lets crack to it. When did you first start playing RPGs and what were they? Depends... I started off with things like HeroQuest, Space Crusade, Battle Masters which although are board games we played out the characters. Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone Fighting Fantasy gamebooks published by Puffin, were probably my first foray into Roleplaying games. Later Shadowrun, D&D, Cyberpunk and Vampire the Masquerade, Call of Cthulhu and LARP What was the most memorable part of those sessions Meeting mates, doing dumb shit and then rolling epic for it. Still remember an old half Troll from Shadowrun, who was a dumb detective/private eye, who thought shouting shhhh to his shotgun made it a silenced weapon. Why did you start GMing? Had the thought, it cannot be that hard can it? From there tried it out,...
