A Red Dawn - Star Wars FFG Campaign

This post is to gauge interest in a PbP game using Gamersplane and the main interface, and Roll20.net for visual/music GUI

CLARIFICATION - roll20 would be passive, PC to look as he/she deems necessary to have a visual reference, there will be no voice/FtF requirement

Look forward to the responses.

SYSTEM: Star Wars FFG
GAME FREQUENCY: 1-2 posts a week per PC/GM
NUMBER OF PCs: 6
DESCRIPTION:
This concept is something i have been considering for a while using etoe/aor/f&d

Campaign Detail - "A RED DAWN Concept"

Toparwa in the Outer Rim

On a cool fall morning, in Toprawa City , a pair of Jedi pause when they see Republic Clone Trooper Transports landing in a nearby field. They approach one another, conversation ensues. The Jedi motions for the new arrivals to follow them and they fall in line behind the Jedi. Suddenly the Clone Troopers stop upon receiving a communique and open fire on the Jedi in front of them. Pandemonium follows as students (including the PCs) flee amid heavy gunfire.

All across the TCU Campus, Republic Clone Troopers land..., INVASION, are trying to impose order which appears a be hasty planned occupation...or manhunt...

And so the story begins.....

- close of the Clone Wars 19 BBY
- Outer Rim, Toprawa System, Toprawa City - TCU Campus (considered a neutral system)
- 6 PCs in their University Years
- PCs are all students attend the University
- PCs are late teens to early twenties or species equivalent
- TCU Campus come under attack, you must survive
- Decide how your futures will unfold

- I am anal retentive and detail oriented, you have been warned

CHARACTER GENERATION INFO
- determine the PC Students background
- use EtoE / AoR / F&D
- F&D Characters will have to deal with Order 66
- All final CHR Sheets will be maintained by me
- i will send your updated PDF copies via Skype for your records

this sounds interesting, but I don't think I could commit to face to face time. hope you find people and you make the game open to the public!

I am very interested in this, but also have a very tight schedule. I'd like to be able to participate, but my ability will be determined by the day, time and duration of Roll 20 sessions. Bi-weekly is doable, but it depends on when.

In general, I can make time after 10:00pm US Central time on most days, Sun-Thurs.

I think he means just sending the sheet. Of course he can send it by email also for a pdf.

CLARIFICATION - roll20 would be passive, PC to look as he/she deems necessary to have a visual reference, there will be no voice/FtF requirement

In that case, I'm down. Sounds like a cool game concept and cool time period to play in.

oh fuck yeah., I'm in as well. been wanting to play a jedi

Iam already in. Im thinking of a student that lies and cheats on all his tests. :-))

of course you are

Me too!

Game is open for applications

I have applied. This looks like loads of fun!

I have to vary up my characters. I haven't played that type yet. Seems like fun. :-)

dibs on a jedi!

What flavor? I was contemplating a force sensitive mechanic type. Sentinal: Artisan.

Think I'll play the rich kid who thinks he'll coast through on his name and his looks. He probably plays a sport.

Personality wise, I'm leaning toward a shy, moody, nerdy Zabrak. He's strong and physically capable, but also really smart and deeply interested in mechanics and computers. More comfortable around droids than people.

Alternatively, I'd be interested in perhaps playing a droid of some type. We'll see.

haven't decided yet, but thinking about the one who is way into meditation and trusting the force.. a real mystic type

I am going to be a force using driod... Hahaha

a droid with repulsor fists that thinks he's using the force but we all feel too bad for him to tell him otherwise

To steal from dmblock can be a droid that thinks he is a force user but his force sensitive friends juat use it when ever he tries to do something.

lol

I love this idea purely because I love any and every instance of people in Star Wars caring about a droid's feelings.

are we going to be starting as padawans or as full jedi knights?

I am considering 1 Padawan (PC will be determined based on best supplied background), the rest of the PCs should come from ETOE/AOR careers, TCU Student body and all.

I can easily make my concept non-Force sensitive. Don't have an issue with that at all.

ok, I guess I'll make a padawan then

I am enjoy playing non force users. I will go over my EotE books tonight and figure something out. Maybe comes from a middle class family type that got by on using others.


Super charming scumbag.

1st Time Shame on you... 2nd Time shame on me...

Well let me be crystal clear

...I am anal retentive, and detail oriented....

All potential PCs will read all posts...
All potential PCs will meet requirements posted
Your not officially part of the campaign until your character is formally approved...

Let me be clear this is the interview process...

...you have been warned...

There will be no 2nd warning

What are you taling about?

There are currently 5 players, 4 of you are fine

Passive aggressive GMing doesn't always make for fun games. Maybe message the person privately, if they don't answer, think about dropping them from the game and recruiting another? Just friendly GM advice. :)

Your right I should not be passive /aggressive, i send you a PM

Ah, never realized I applied for the game. I certainly don't see it in my game list. You should accept a player into a game if they have submitted themselves. Otherwise the GP system will never show the game to them, and the forum will not show up for them if their public games are filtered off.

Sorry for holding up the game of that is what happened. Thanks for finally DMing me that You were waiting, had no clue.

We're still in character generation early stages. No hold up at all!

2 open spot left, make sure to read this entire thread, and if accepted, the other forums as well, blind applications will be removed

I have had numerous people apply to join with no follow up via PM.....If you are interested in playing, you need to PM me and read our open forums. Beyond that enjoy window shopping

Can you drop a link to these open forums you mentioned? I see in the game listing for A Red Dawn that the forums are public, but I can't find the actual game forums in the forum list.

You would need to find it in the games.

Yeah, I found the game, but can't find the forums in the listings.

Here you go!

Thanks. I really like the game format. All caught (except Roll 20). I'll send a PM to the GM about sending in an app.
