Hi,

I would like to try something new. I am going to run a World War II campaign on Facebook. I have chosen FB because it has all we need and 90% of us spend most of the day there + notifications + mobile access + you name it. We can use discussion boards, photos, or anything else we need on a fan page of the campaign.

The campaign will be set in World War 2 era. I'll try to stick to historical accuracy at the beginning and only the future can tell how will the war end. Expect a lot of action, urban and countryside warfare, secret missions and projects, paranormal activities, and a lot of adrenaline.

Any 4th edition book is allowed as long as I can fit it in the rules. 3rd edition is OK if I can convert it. Everyone starts as a NORMAL HUMAN BEING and that's the only restriction at the start.

Reply here or PM me if you're interested in playing this campaign!

i might have thought about this if it wasnt on facebook, sorry but i stay away from there

This is interesting. I will consider joining...

I would be interested in this, but I am not well versed in GURPS, and would likely require assistance for the first little bit.

That should get you started.

Oh cool thanks!

so if there are at least two players i would consider starting this campaign with others joining on the flight.. what do you think?

[LordMelvin]

Give it a while longer, maybe keep talking about how awesome it'll be...

The best description of this campaign would be: Band of Brothers + Paranormal

if you are desperate for more players, i could play (provided it does not clash with anything else im doing) Aaaand you find a way to do it without facebook, as i have previously stated i stay away from there

the only alternative is some forum, where you would still have to register. you wouldn't even create some dummy account just for this? it's not that you're required to have friends or anything

So, for the record, are we looking at 50-pt characters? 100? 500? (If we do 500-pt characters, can I be Fighting Jack Churchill, only man to take a German Machine Gun Bunker solo, with a claymore?)

Also, you mentioned in the first post that anything within reason would fly. What does 'within reason' mean? It's wwII, so presumably nothing (to start) past tl7?

What's our basic setup? Are we a commando unit, a la Inglorious Basterds/The Dirty Dozen? Are we Mata Hari/Rick Blaine/Indy Jones type semi-independent operators? Do we all meet up in a tavern in occupied France?

I would say we will be starting with 75 points with you people just finished training and heading into a secret mission about which you don't have too much knowledge at this time. You will be a part of an experimental special unit which is mixed from various allied countries. It is December 1941. and freezing cold...

if its possible in a forumn its possible on gameboard, google it, i play dnd on it sometimes, use the downloadable one not the subscription one

edit: but i probably cant anyway, got other things happening, soz

[Omegastick]

Can I join please? I, too, am not particularly familiar with GURPS but I have read the lite rulebook and have knoledge of some other role playing games. I'm willing to play on Facebook as well.
