I am running Icar every Tuesday evening. We have Fish, Dwain, Byrn, Rob G, Iain and Wallace.

The Icar setting we were using was the Star Enforcer setting. They were alpha testing the setting for me so it was being written as they played.

The setting is supposed to run along the following lines:
1. Get used to arrested people.
2. Get used to the colony and the way it works.
3. Start arresting people for similar crimes and spot connections.
4. Get tasked with something bigger and become a bit more autonomous.
5. Start arresting important people.
6. Bring down corrupt core.
7. Arrest some very important people.
8. Move to another system as undercover troubleshooters.

It ran like this:
1. Get used to arrested people.
2. Get used to the colony and the way it works.
3. Start arresting people for similar crimes and spot connections.
4. Get tasked with something bigger and become a bit more autonomous.
5. Accidentally start shooting people.
6. Forget they are supposed to be Enfocers.
7. Kill loads of innocent people.
8. Get thrown out of Enforcers.

*At this point, they could either start afresh or continue*

9. Continue. Get employed by an illuminatii organisation and try and keep the colony stable from a less police and law point of view.

It's all good fun but I am rather concerned that they are slipping back into the same vigilante grind. The Star Enforcer setting was designed to stop them slipping into Vigilante. Perhaps the group is best suited for Vigilante-ism. We've had some player changes during the game but now the team is settled, I can forsee some seriously manic and enjoyable campaigning going on.

Well, one group I game with decided that they wanted to play Tales from the Wood, so we had a couple of games of that recently.



It went very well and makes me want to tidy up the pdf and make it more presentable - my co-designer Mark George ran the sessions.

With another group, I am mainly playing d20 D&D in a home-brew fantasy setting.

With the third group we are playing a 'firefly' inspired game using QAGS. However, this is due to end soon, so we will have a short Barbarians of Lemuria campaign to follow.

Right now, I'm running a game of Exemplar. We started out using the Wraiths adventure (in the booklet), and have branched out to a full-scale rebellion against the IGAC. That's been on hold for a while, though--I'm probably going to be picking it up again in a week or two, with a pair of new players. Yay!

In the mean time, I've been playing a Diviner/Alienist in a friend's D&D campaign. Very fun--I've been doing all the cartography, and the friend takes the place names I come up with and runs with it. At the moment we're dealing with an incursion of undead from what we suspect to be the Negative Energy Plane, and are bating whether or not we should start binding Celestials to help us out.

On off weeks, we play Texas Holdem and Diplomacy.

We are about to get the second phase of our Vampire game going. We just finished our first game with Jason as the DM. Now we will continue with the same characters 200 years later with Daniel as the DM and Jason as one of the party members. This should be an interesting game because we will be in Kiev when the Anarch Wars are coming to an head.
