Re: TOBCON IV 2022

Hey I've arrived in London for Tobcon. In previous years a few of have met for pints and dinner at "The Plough" in the evening. I'll try and arrive around 8pm. I'll be in an obvious gamer t-shirt.

Re: NergalCon 3, 29th April - 2nd May 2022

We are just under two weeks away from NergalCon. There are a number of games over the weekend and they are starting to fill up. So if you will be around for a game or two take a look at what is being run.
So join us if you haven't already. https://discord.gg/yERMwEa

Re: NergalCon 3, 29th April - 2nd May 2022

In an ironic turn shortly after starting this thread, Papa Nurgle paid me a visit and I got sick for awhile. Made a start on remembering how Discord works and stuff. There is a new spreadsheet up to add your games in the pinned to the schedule channel.

NergalCon 3, 29th April - 2nd May 2022

Hey all, I'm planning on running a new con over Discord for the May bank holiday weekend. With a general announcement on Reddit and other Discord groups on Sat. If there are suggestions on how to do things differently I'd be interested in hearing it, as I'll be getting back into preparing the space ...

Re: TOBCON 2021?

Thanks for the update Toby. I should be able to run an online con again. I'll do the setup in June when I have some free time and give people time to prepare for the weekend.

Re: TOBCON 2021?

You are not alone in this. Poland is also screwed. Maybe Discord CON? Like Winds of Chaos Discord CON? There was NegalCon which ran on the same weekend last year, by a very mysterious internet person. :D My attendance is also dependant on a big change in the rate of vaccinations, which doesn't look...

Re: NergalCon 2 from the 12th-14th February

Thanks everyone who came and sorry for the weekend it ran on. I should have just put it forward when the date was brought up. So on Friday I ran my new one-shot The Dirty Gobbo half dozen and that went well. With three players it was much more focused then the usual rivalry as players act in and act...

Re: NergalCon 2 from the 12th-14th February

Just two weeks to go until the start of NergalCon 2. We have a full schedule of games for you to sign up for, sign up for that one that sounds cool before it has filled up.

NergalCon 2 from the 12th-14th February

As the new year approaches as the menace continues, we must meet again for a communal online roleplaying convention/ceremony to turn the tide against the great evil plaguing our land. Using a combination of Discord, Roll20 or other online platform. Game Master's can submit their game, and decide now...

Re: NergalCon

Dice rolls do slow down online games, my rule of thumb from a D+D campaign I was the GM for that was mixed between in person and online play is that online takes around a third longer because of Dice rolls, which is why adopting the 4 hour format of Tobcon helps compared to the more rushed 3 hour ti...

Roll20 didn't load for a player using window explorer, so yeah there are plenty of heretics in the world! :D

Re: NergalCon

Thanks for the kind words. The feedback has been positive and there was even two requests to run the event next year as well. There was some work to set up Discord, figuring the layout and how to structure the rooms online, to make the setup easy to understand. Having gone to many in person con's ov...

Re: NergalCon

Wow, time has passed quickly, almost time for NegalCon. Hope to see you of you there. There are still player slots and a good bit of interest. So fingers crossed that Ranald lands heads up!! :D

@tadcan apologies, I've had some real life stuff to deal with but eager to get on the Discord server but I can't seem to send private messages. I'll try and visit this thread this weekend if you can generate a new one. Or alternatively can anyone already in maybe generate an friend invite? It shoul...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation

It'd be more hesitant with dealing with these issues with someone who identified from that community without having a discussion beforehand about what approach is ok. In other games people have talked about no pvp or no graphic violence, anything against children etc before hand, so in an ideal wor...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation

The notion of gender as non-binary is a very new concept in science. Nevertheless, gays and transgender people have existed forever. I'm not sure whether I'd want to deal with in-game homophobia or transphobia if I was a gay or trans gamer, but having some interesting gay or trans characters in WFR...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation

If your familiar with 2000AD and Judge Dredd it also came out of the late 70's with a similar dark, subversive humour that reflected rise of Thatcher and Regan, ongoing in universe storylines and with pop culture references.
