I apologize, I should not have assumed you knew what I meant by Session-0. By this I mean it is the planning session that takes place before the actual game where the players and the GM discuss what kind of game they would like to play, the rules/optional rules that they want to use, the setting, the character they would like to play, etc. This allows me as the GM to sort of form the game around the players involved rather than dictating the setting/style to them. So it may be a good idea to hide the character creation thread until I can get all of this sorted out with the players that are interested, and this thread would probably be the best place to do that I suppose.
I would probably want to use three threads if possible: The Main Role-playing Game thread, Character Creation, and a thread for game coordination. Questions, rules, and other Out of Character: "Chatter."
Absolutely Malcolmshaw, I'm happy to see you show interest. So far it's just you and one other. I would like to see at least one or two more but in the meantime I would like to know what you and Omnusi would like to see from this campaign. There are several different campaign models that can be run with Traveller: Mercenaries, Trade, Exploration, to name a few. Do you have a particular model you would like to play in? Also, while Traveller has an established campaign setting in the Third Imperium, we could also do a more home brew style of game using the Traveller mechanics but creating our own setting. I would be good either way.
Hoping to see more interest in the near future from others, but until we answer what sort of campaign we want to establish and how we would like to see the character creation process played out I will hold off on posting the game threads. Normally I would not take this long to reply, but I was waiting to see if there was anymore interest in the hopes of having one or two others to help answer some the above questions so I held off for a little bit.
Aericsteele, some are joining to participate in your Role-playing Game . While it is good to have feedback first you may also wish to consider that if you have nothing in place as a base then the time between the feedback and putting up your Threads may cause a significant delay.
I could crank up a character using CT and submit it for conversion to MgT, as I don't have Mongoose laying around yet (Budget keeps saying 'Naw, you need to get xxxx first before dumping more cash on Role-Playing Games...). Best I can do at the present.
Rulesets are arbitrary. The play's the thing. And yeah, I'm familiar with the Marches. I think EVERYBODY got their teeth wet there once upon a time...
