Bad News and a Poll

This Sunday's Serenity session in canceled. I'm sorry for the short notice, but Eric cannot make this game due to circumstances outside his control, and there is no way to run this game productively without Eli. Rather than waste your time with a frivolous side quest I pulled out of my ass, we'll just continue this next week. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.


While you're enjoying your week off from Serenity, feel free to partake of some RPs. And while you're at it, I want your feedback on something. The Signal had a name, and FFSPT did as well for those of you that remember that far back. Should this campaign have a name as well, or should we keep calling it "The Serenity game"? If we want to give it a name, I need suggestions. Post them here.

An Experiment

I've been thinking about the strengths and limitations of the tabletop system. For one, tabletop does a fantastically better job with anything action-related: jobs, tavern brawls, searching for stowaway hobos--you name it. However it lack on the interpersonal relationship end. The Signal's format had much the opposite problem: lots of personal drama, sucky action scenes.

In the name of science, I'm going to try to split the difference. From now on, if the current plot permits, feel free to do Signal-type RPs in between game sessions. This way you can flesh out your characters at your leisure while still having bar brawls on Sunday.

For instance: The next game session will start when the crew gets to Persephone. You guys can RP out scenes that take place between them leaving Beaumonde and them arriving in Persephone, so long as you edit the scene and post it on Broadwave after. We'll try it for a couple of weeks and it it works out, we'll keep it. It not, it was worth a shot.

Resources

Hey guys. Just a small post today. I would like to call your attention to the list of links on the right-hand side of the page called "resources." Since this takes place in the Signal-universe, I brought over the planetary guide from The Signal and put it under resources. In the future, I'll probably put up a make map of Underdog and whatever else I think of that might be useful. If there's anything missing you'd like up there, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
