No, not the show. I don't know if we even get that show in Australia since I don't watch TV anymore. If I had a TiVo I might record it but it's not worth the Foxtel subscription for a handful of shows that will be out on DVD soon enough.
No, this is about the new gaming group that I am joining this evening. They are doing a supers campaign at the moment, using a system I have never heard of. So this is a hope that maybe one of you out there will have heard of it and can clue me in about how it works. "My supers game uses SomeWhat™." is all I have to go on, and I haven't found anything yet. Also, it looks like one of the other guys is going to run a Star Wars game using BESM rules. Should be interesting.
I haven't brought up running a game, mostly because part of the reason the other group folded was I was feeling q little burnt out.. okay really burnt out. I had been primarily DM/GM'ing for 10 years. I could count the times that I just got to play on one hand. The campaign that promised to let me just play, the other players really didn't show that much interest in, so I felt really frustrated. I do love to DM/GM but I also need the time to just get in the game and play my character and let go of control. And I just wasn't really getting that. So, I haven't brought up doing a game, and besides I don't even know what systems these guys are all familiar with. I can run just about anything, but am most familiar with Hero, Palladium, D20, and Amber. I could do a Storyteller game ala World of Darkness, as well, but I am not as familiar with it. Something to keep in mind for now though.
Also, I have only met two of the group members so will be meeting 4 new people tonight. It's BYO drinks and foods, or take-out, so I am bringing a couple bottles of spiced mead. It would have been regular honey mead but they were out, the bastards. I wish I had to time and resources to brew my own mead. Mead 24/7 baby! Yeah! If you have never had mead you are so seriously missing out on so many levels it's just not even funny.
Okay, yeah, infoz please. And wish me luck. Haven't played face to face in a while now. It's like riding a bike, right?
