October Rotation - Here is what's coming up

Step right this way that's it, a little closer. Cool, so are you hero enough to dive into the world of running a game? Brilliant, Let me know the synopsis or basic premise of the game and we can work to ensure you have a table of players. For each Rotation we need people to Pitch their games they would like to run, also if you wish to run a game in a later rotation, the earlier I know the better. As always on the look out for GMs that are willing to run again in either the next rotation or Januarys Rotation (always good to have the future schedule done) Currently we have The lost city of Raukirk System: D&D 5e Game Master George Dragon of Icepire Peak System: D&D 5e Game Master Julia Headstone Hill System: Deadlands (Savage Worlds) Game Master Jo F Boardgames System: Multiple Game Master Jerrie Still unsure, well here are some tips and stuff for new and old DMs or GMs Not all RPG is D&D, you can run (and play) other systems DM/GM tips and beginners guide So we need you,...

Interview with a GM - Andy D

When did you first start playing RPGs and what were they? About 1978. It was basically all D&D Basic (Red or Blue book) and then AD&D.   What was the most memorable part of those sessions? Probably the people I played with. I am still in touch with three of them and although one lives in Australia we are still in fairly regular contact. Why did you start GMing? Someone had to. Also I had the only rule book. How long have you been GMing? I first GMed about 1980 or 81 I took a group of school friends through G1 – G3 during one term What systems have you GMed? Basic D&D, Advanced D&D, D&D3.5, D&D 5th ed basically lots of D&D, Pathfinder 1st ed, Runequest / Call of Cthulhu / Basic Roleplaying system, err I forget the rest. What are the pleasures and pitfalls of GMing? Players. If you come up with a situation and think of 20 ways the players may deal with it, they will find a 21st and force you to adapt which is brilliant, but there are times when it can be l...

Interview with a GM - Chris J

Hi as one of the four GMs for the July Rotation in venue, I thought of a bit of a mini interview on you. When did you first start playing RPGs and what were they? I originally started playing RPGs about 20 years ago. My first major campaign was a 2 year Shadowrun 2e adventure with a group of friends from my local Games Workshop store.  We did also foray into a bit of D&D 3e and WFRP 2e at the time as well.  Since then I've played various systems both on Pen & Paper or PC RPGs such as Divinity What was the most memorable part of those sessions? Generally I think the overall best part were the epic Weekender sessions from a Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. A good time with mates on an epic adventure was hard to beat - especially spending several hours preparing, planning for a mission only to see it go belly up within 10 minutes. Why did you start GMing? Initially I started GMing on-line on Roll20 with Shadowrun 4e simply because there was nobody else running the game...
