Game Update

Suddenly I find myself taking part in not one, but three games all at once. Interesting times. But if you're at all interested in following the exploits, here's some links:

The Sunless Citadel - A D&D 3rd Edition Play By Post game where I play a human ranger. Another adventuring group has gone missing, with rumors of an old citadel sinking into the ground. That is literally all I know about this game. That's almost as bad as GM's who drone on and on about their endless and boring homebrew campaign history. 

Trail of Bodies - A D&D 3rd Edition Play By Post game where I play a human Priest (Cleric) of Kelemvor the God of the Dead. All I know about it is a village has been consumed by a zombie invasion. And when there's zombies, that's all I need to know. I wish I'd have know the dude was using homebrew classes and races before the game started, but it's all good, the game should still be fun. The game thread is private, so you won't be able to see what's going on, but I thought I'd post it here anyway. 

Burning Reclamation - A Burning Wheel game I'm playing over Skype with some other people from the BW forums. We're playing a host of Dwarves who have returned to the mines of Moriah (yes it was misspelled on purpose) to reclaim our birthright, only to find a bunch of human squatters. Not to mention the orcs (and fouler things) who have inhabited the deeper parts of the mines themselves.

Need some d20

For some reason, I'm having this really strong urge to play D&D 3rd Edition. The only thing I can think of is that I want to play 3rd edition rather than run 3rd edition. Playing 3rd is fine, I actually have a lot of fun with it and enjoy the experience. Running it, however, is an entirely different story. And all in all, they did quite a good job with Bards - especially with some of the supplements (Heroes of Horror and Complete Adventurer), which I appreciate. I'm thinking about trying to get into a game here in Watertown once things settle down, I'd love to play again - running games constantly is getting a little old, and I've felt for a long time that I need more play experience in order to be a more effective GM. Seeing how other GM's run games is an invaluable experience.
