TOPIC: A Fistful of One-Shots discussion

Andy, are you able to prep a back-up game in the event that we have to split the party? I'll take one group, you take the other?

Maybe we need to assign a primary/secondary DM each week. If the numbers aren't there to necessitate a second table, the secondary DM becomes the primary DM for the following week.

Thursday 21/03/19
Primary DM: mikeawmids (Savage Worlds)
Secondary DM: Andrek (tbc)

If you don't sign up to a game, we cannot guarantee you a game. We are going out of our way to accommodate new players this rotation, that will not necessarily be the case going forward.

Week 4

I ran a Savage Worlds one-shot using the new Adventure Edition of the rules. The scenario acts as a kind-of prequel to the main campaign I'm running in rotation 3, so there will be some recurring characters & themes.

A peasant chokes on a fish and coughs up a mysterious key! The heroes question the fisherman and defend him from ruffians. The tiefling warlock turns the fisherman's hut into a lumbering abomination. The heroes find the wreck of the Wave Arrow and the entrance to a cave populated by unfriendly crab people! The key unlocks a chest belonging to a wizard, but he begs them not to open it. The heroes destroy the lesser spotted giant, evil psychic starfish that has been luring entire crews onto the rocks. Ignoring the wizard's warning, the party open the chest... TBC!

Next weeks DM will be... Andy!

* We never did find out why Selman (Billy) wanted to skin that severed head....

Just to add from the shoutout box we wrapped up the Chtulhu game last week and was planning a few oneshots for the rest of the rotation. Richard can't make it tonight again so me, Billy and possibly Callum may jump in with you if thats ok? If too big a group I think Billy was talking about getting a one shot ready just incase or we can just join in your game?

Week 5

Andy C ran Savage Worlds. The party were poisoned by bad pie and had to gather the ingredients required to concoct the antidote before their time ran out!

Week 6

Tom ran yet more Savage Worlds, using the Last Parsec setting book to jump start an epic sci-fi adventure to find the wreckage of a crashed transport vessel crewed by rebellious robots.

Week 7

Tim ran Call of Cthulhu (7th ed). The investigators received an alarming telegram from a close friend being held against his will in an insane asylum. The heroes corralled the clues and uncovered a sinister plot to awaken a malevolent entity from beyond the stars.

Next weeks DM will be... Billy!

I shoul dbe back next week. Did Billy say whether to bring any characters? I think he was going to run something 5E?

I won't be around this week, see ya'll next Thursday night.
