Well lookie what I found here...
« on: November 25, 2012, 06:07:08 PM »
I've been a lurker for a while, brought here primarily by my newfound addiction to Strange Aeons. Thanks to the fine folks here, I'm now looking at Fallout, Chaos in Carpathia, and .45 Adventures.

I used to write extensively about "hobby board games" at my blog, but after being disenchanted with their inability to really capture a narrative and explore it, I stumbled upon Strange Aeons and immediately saw the brilliance. It's like a tremendously time consuming and expensive 3D tactical interactive movie.

I'm not sure I'll ever go back to playing one-offs after seeing what kind of stories and adventures are generated from persistent, campaign style games like these.

Thanks to all for the help!

It's a bit late for introductions isn't it superflynt  ;)
Only kidding.

My experience of strange aeons has led me towards .45 adventure too. Ordered the rule book Thursday night... Don't tell the guys on the strange Aeons board tho... They might kick me out.

The sickle in the fruitful field;
The sword he sung a song of death,
But could not make the sickle yield."

Welcome to LAF.

I hope you... WAIT!

You're cheating! You're been here for some time now, don't you?

Anyhow, we're glad you've find a nice place to gather with other gamers.

Have a nice stay.
I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!

It's never too late to announce one's self, especially since the butler keeps forgetting my name!
