Southwest Conclave 13 - Saturday April 5th!

[TheNephew]

Tentative yes to that, would like to make it.

Radstock again I guess?

[greenstuff_gav]

aye; the committee is happy (so long as we fork out the £25 "donation"), the manager is checking the diary but can't see a problem with the 5th

MAAAAAP! that's the carpark, we're at the back
there's a CO-OP 4 mins walk away wit ha chip shop and plenty of takeaways locally and we've got a licensed bar!
Prattens, Charlton Lane, Radstock / Westfield / Midsomer Norton (the three are interchangeable according to device!) BA3 4BD

just gotta write the damn thing now!
it's going to be slightly different to normal events, but i'll post more once i get this handout done

i can comfortably host 16 players so those who want to come, post here so i can keep track

1.

[DapperAnarchist]

I can very likely do it - It's less than a day trip for me, more a country jaunt.

[MarcoSkoll]

I'd like to come, but I'll need to check scheduling with others.

[greenstuff_gav]

so, i've started writing and taken some advice from some people much smarter'n what i is!

still, here's a taster; i'm currently writing more information on timings and such but hopefully people can start looking at coming / what characters to bring!

any questions, post or PM me!

[MarcoSkoll]

While I've been thinking about what I said in my PM more, I'm still not impressed with Inquisitor as a ruleset for single character PvE play.

I might still attend, as I've remembered that Gala would be a fairly suitable character, but it's not a certainty.

[greenstuff_gav]

i had a couple other people also comment; hence the 1-3 returning
i've kept the (modified) persistent injuries; depending on how it runs may look at persistant ammo count for next time too; want to get Conclave events to have more of a daily narrative

writing, NPC and terrain building has started albeit slowly.. thankfully i've got the week before off!

...

not that anyones' actually confirmed they'll be coming :lol:

[MarcoSkoll]

Then I'm not sure what's going on, as you've still got the line "Unlike many games of Inquisitor, each player will play a single character, all assigned to a combined investigatory team".

I read it as the 1-3 dealie being an option to switch which one character was being used each game.

[greenstuff_gav]

totally my fault but something i hadn't thought of.. hmm...

na, i'll stick to the "party of 1/3" as it'll make the scenarios easier to write

[DapperAnarchist]

Hmmm, didn't notice the one character each at first - an interesting idea, and it changes who I will bring... Guess I'll be fielding Mysterious Inquisitorial Agents, not Sinister Mechanicus Team! (Sinister Mechanicus Team sounds like a Japanese 40K-themed pop group)

[MarcoSkoll]

Based on what Gav has since said, I think the one character thing might be something from the first drafts that got left in by mistake.

If so, is it (up to) three characters per scenario, or three in total? Not that I'm convinced I'll be organised enough to get more than three characters ready in dual scale, but I may try.

[greenstuff_gav]

marco's got it; you can take up to 3 characters per game (so standard practise) but injuries are (semi)persistent!

[MarcoSkoll]

Before I start booking train tickets, two questions:

1) Are there going to be enough attendees to make this a workable event?
2) Relying on your offer of pick-up from Bath station still standing, what's the latest vaguely reasonable arrival time at the station?

[greenstuff_gav]

i've not had anyone actually confirm attendance; will push the locals to see whos about later

ideally 08:30ish in Bath would be good; its about 20 mins from the club and allows me to setup game 01 by 09:45; there's a local co-op should supplies be required!

bus routes,
173, 178 or 184

and ride to Norton Hill School (between Radstock - Victoria hall, where i live and Midsomer Norton Town Centre - you've gone too far!); there's a stop at the roundabout just up from Prattens

EDIT
still no idea, but this cropped up in a game and i thought it suitable!

[MarcoSkoll]

08:30 in Bath is definitely within the "Oh gods, I wish I was dead" time for me to have to get up, but it's not impossible...
