Let's Play Yoon-Suin

You know what? Fuck it. Would anyone like to play some Yoon-Suin Play-By-Chat?


Times: Tuesday or Wednesday nights, beginning 7-8pm-ish GMT (I know this probably makes it impossible for a lot of North Americans... sorry). I could possibly consider changing this to Sunday evenings though I'd prefer to keep them free. (In that wonderful Japanese phrase, I like to "prepare my heart" for the working week in front of me on Sunday nights.)
Place: MapTool (free RPG chat/irc thing). I don't like voice chat as it's just a jerky and awkward approximation of real life with none of the benefits.
Details: I'd like around 4 players (but will settle for less) who can commit to a once-a-week game, on the understanding that this is a playtest of some experimental new classes and rules - so experienced D&D players who can give feedback would be more than welcome. The system is essentially BECMI D&D with knobs and whistles. A liking for and appreciation of whatever Yoon-Suin stuff I've posted in the blog would be a plus. My games are sandboxy and player initiative is important. Yoon-Suin is mostly a giant slaying, rather than a goblin massacre, setting; aside from that the players can make it as dungeoncrawly or as hexcrawly or as politicky as they like, or anything in between - there's room for all of it.
Start Date: I'd like to have a character gen/setup session on the 10th or 11th of March.

If you're interested, send me an email. It's jean DOT delumeau AT gmail DOT com.

  4. I would love to do that, but the appointed time doesn't work for me, alas.

    I'll be interested in hearing how things--and getting more Yoon-Suin tidbits, though.

  7. Ack! That's like 6-7 in the morning for me and I'll be either working or sleeping.


    I need more fodder for pictures and such as my imagination grows weary, so please, give us distilled updates or blow-by-blows, some kind of juicy effluvium of the goings-on would be welcome and much appreciated.

    Btw what "giants" -other than slug giants and velvet worms and the odd rakshasa, will you be featuring? -and- are you going to include special ewok guerilla tactical rules to facilitate your giant hunting?

    More Yoon-Suin is always good.

  9. I'm a total novice, but I might be able to do it. I'll have a think about it and talk to you when I see you next.
