Re: [GZG] [FT] New Campaign from John Tailby



Hi there,

I'm always interested in how groups play campaigns - there are so many different styles and ideas.

As a small plug, to my now dead campaign (it ran for a whole year - which I think was pretty good going), if you want to use any of it be my guest (though I guess your group won't be interested in the resources rules). I did write up some nicely formatted summaries, especially of all the weapon systems - including stealth and decoys etc:

and the playtest fighter rules (no idea where they currently stand though, I believe there was another idea posted):

I don't really contribute to the list, but I still read it every now and then. I did spend such a long time writing all that stuff up - makes me feel better if other people find it useful/use it.

Yeah, my group liked the logistics stuff more - in fact, to be honest we designed a space campaign using FT as the combat resolution system. If I ever run another one I'd tone down so many of the rules. Still, you have to learn things the hard way sometimes.
