Dragonlance?
-
Are there any active games out there based on the Dragonlance novels? I used to play on one but it's long since folded. Really liked that genre.
-
I f'n wish, man. I'd kill for a Dragonlance game.

:performs the sing-song lure of Spelljammer, to have ALL D&D settings, simultaneously.

Except Dark Sun,the best AD&D setting of them all.

We had Dark Sun AND Ravenloft in our Spelljammer game.
-
Out of curiosity, how'd you handle Ravneloft?

Well that's against the rules, cuz Dark Sun isn't in a Crystal Sphere, however, altering book rules to make a game more fun? That gets a thumbs up every time.
-
Less Crystal Spheres, more Trek. Also ships that could land on land.
Ravenloft usually involved the Mists kidnapping everyone, and having to sort that shit out.
-
@jennkryst Ravenloft can kidnap anyone from anywhere. I believe there was even a Domain that was ruled by the head Templar of a sleeping dragon/sorcerer queen from Dark Sun due to that.
-
@lithium Indeed. The Mists of Ravenloft. If they are extra spooky, they will hide inside normal clouds or fog.
-
Getting into Ravenloft is never the difficult part...
-
It seems, from this thread and another (or two?), that people are thinking about D&D RPG settings. Too bad that we cannot do polls on the forum to get a feel of various setting interests.
-
@rook I think part of it is while we /love/ the setting, there is a lot to be desired when trying to convert D&D to a text based format, at least, in whole cloth... hmm... I just got an idea...
-
@lithium
Start a new thread for your idea? -
@rook Nah not worth a new thread yet. Will see where the code goes first
-
I wasn't thinking anything with dice code or anything, of course. I've played on a few SAGA-based Star Wars games and would rather stick a fork in my eye than go through that again.
Just the setting with the political and social interactions.
-
Ooh. I would be down for either of those. Dark Sun / Ravenloft, make it happen!
-
I'd been thinking of doing up a game inspired by Ravenloft, Bloodborne, and Innistrad using Savage Worlds and this makes me consider it even more.

What happened to the old Dragonlance game? I only remember one, where nobody knew your name until you told them, otherwise you would just appear as 'a fat dwarf' or whatever your generic 1-liner desc was. It was really fun from what I remember. It had like months-long campaigns that were changed over and most folks got different characters.

Owner shut it down, I believe, when life became too much or the game became too much, cannot remember.
