Yeah, that's pretty much the first thing that came to mind when I started thinking about it. There won't be any non-lord/army commander characters in this and only 6 or so players, so it'll be much less work for a GM.

There's no chance in hell I could start this any time soon, though. I've still got my Agency RTD to start next month and two others to run.

Apparently Fniff just started a Silent Hill RTD, so I'm taking it upon myself to advertise in the hopes of getting it started. ^^^

Also, because I can't get this idea out of my head, any interest for a grand strategy RTD? Players would be lords and mercenary captains, fighting wars with thousands of men, thinking of ways to utilize terrain and troop tactics to their advantage, getting mixed in political intrigue, running intelligence networks and assassinating rivals and enemies, and so on. All this on my nice Hexographer maps.

Grand strategy RTD would indeed be very nice, if someone can just GM things like those. Its pretty damn hard to include all that intrigue. Also tactical battles are quite hard to pull of successfully... As a RTD it could propably work so the rules wouldn't be too much in the way, and I bet there are alot of interested players for a game like that

This morning I found myself looking at the numberplates of the cars on my drive in to work and seeing them as tileset characters in ASCII... a silver Renault I was behind had an interesting scene of a Human wrestling a Minotaur near a bin.

Hmmmm. Next random thought. We could do some collective brainstorming, put all our ideas together in a single post and then people can play mix and match with them.

I like that, but I think it would be best if it happened live as a chatroom or IRC channel or somesuch at first. That's more efficient for brainstorming. Maybe someone needs to start #Bay12RTD so that we can get together and talking about GMing and playing? I dunno.

Has anyone thought about a Mini-RTD thread ?
