Hello, everyone! The Taleweaver here, hoping to rustle up enough interested participants for a power armor/mecha-focused tabletop roleplaying game called "Armored Descent". This setting/ruleset is derived from an imageboard CYOA that spiraled out of control into a fairly elaborate setting.
The Basis: A strange pod has fallen from the sky, and upon your approach has chosen you to be the pilot of the as-of-yet uncustomized proto-suit contained within. You are given a limited number of resources and a whole host of options with which to make the power armor/mech inside your own personal engine of destruction and/or power. Will you select the Superheavy, a two-ton monstrosity of unadulterated firepower and thick plates of armor? Or is the Mesh suit more your speed, with a focus on subtlety and stealth as opposed to power?
The Rules: You can find the current revision (10.1) of the Armored Descent core rulebook here. I may make some house rule adjustments, but I want to keep it as simple as possible!
The Tools: I'm hoping to primarily keep this as a play-by-post game here on the forums, though there may be instances where I pull aside specific players/characters for side quests and storylines that will be completed either via Skype or Discord, depending on availability and players involved. I debated on hosting the character sheets on Mythweavers for ease of use, but I've decided to keep it as in-house as possible, and so upon having the completed character sheets PM'd to me I will host them in a tab in the thread proper.
The Players: It has been many months since I have roleplayed in general, and nearly a year since I GM'd a tabletop roleplay. As such, I would like to limit the number of players to 3-5. If I feel comfortable later on, or if I find a competent and agreeable co-GM, I would not be opposed to starting up a second party.
So yeah! If you're interested in participating what will likely be a light-hearted action-adventure oriented science fiction tabletop game (what a mouthful!) then feel free to post or PM me!
