Hi,

I am currently rediscovering the joys of PbP games and decided to drop by here. I used to play a lot of the free form type of games back before online dice rolling was really a thing. I am also in to solo-rpg, but got kind of tired of that lately. I am mostly interested in OSR and games in that orbit, but there are some other games like Fabula Ultima that I never managed to solo play properly and would like to try.

Welcome Aboard!

PbP is great for dipping your toes back into the hobby or diving right into the deep end of you wish. GamersPlane has a great community with a wide variety of games and genres to choose from.

You mentioned Fabula Ultima. I'm currently running a modified version of the system. What drew you to Fabula Ultima as a system?

Mostly how there is not really anything like it out there. I also really, really like the book, like the organization and production value are about as good as they get. The dice mechanic is neat as well, dice-step systems are undervalued in my opinion.

I whole heartedly agree with all those points. FabU is a great system with a lot of flexibility. The aesthetic and layout of the books makes them a fun & fast read.

Here's a Link to the game I'm currently running if you're curious and might want to take a look at how it runs via PbP on GamersPlane.

Oh I checked that out pretty much the moment I made the account. Still thanks for the link. And thanks for the warm welcome. That last part is for everyone. :)
