At that time I set some goals for the next 12 months, and I thought I'd better check in and see how much progress I made against them:
1. Continue to run my Kingsport Tales campaign.
Alas, this I failed to achieve. Other campaigns took precedence and Kingsport languished. I'd love to return, and plan to try and recapture some of that old Kingsport magic with the slow burn of 'Beyond the Mountains of Madness' later this year.
2. Run Masks of Nyarlathotep – Pulp Edition.
Check. It was great fun - my thoughts on the campaign are here.
3. Run a Rogue Trader mini-series.
Check. I'm in the middle of running Lure of the Expanse right now, my thoughts on it are here.
4. Run a Superhero mini-series.
Check. I ran Reverie for a great group of players, and posted about it here.
5. Attend upcoming Wellington tabletop roleplaying conventions.
Check. I attended, and ran games at Day of Games, ConFusion, Fright Night and Kapcon.
6. Write and publish EPOCH
Partial check. I've almost finished the first draft of my character-driven horror roleplaying game, but there's still a fair ways to go before I publish it.
7. Write and submit a scenario for Fear Itself
Nope, this remains something I'm interested in doing, although I'm currently pouring all my thoughts and creativity into EPOCH, and it seems hard to imagine spending any time on a horror game that wasn't EPOCH as it represents my best efforts in this genre.
8. Write and submit another scenario for ICONS
Nope.
9. Write and submit a monograph or scenario for Call of Cthulhu
Check. I wrote Sundown a Call of Cthulhu Adventure of the Old West to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Call of Cthulhu.
So how about the next 12 months? Well here are my goals:
- Finish and publish EPOCH
- Write a good selection of scenarios for EPOCH
- Run the Call of Cthulhu campaign Beyond the Mountains of Madness
- Run the Warpstorm Trilogy, a Rogue Trader campaign
- Attend upcoming local tabletop roleplaying conventions
- Write and publish my Call of Cthulhu resource
- Write and possibly co-run a zany disco based game with Mike
What about you?

I've been pondering 2012 a lot too. My only real goals are the TORG thing and Fright Night. Otherwise I plan to just keep my ears open about interesting stuff to trial.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to EPOCH. :)
I have flipped and flopped a lot early this year. My current list seems to have settled down to:
ReplyDelete1. Write and run a 2 GM game at Kapcon 2013. This is in process with the first draft done without PC/NPC stats.
2. Run a medium length campaign of The One Ring. This is due to start in May.
3. Run a short length campaign of Alchemicals. I am half way through this.
4. Run something for Kapiti College. I am booked in for Marvel Heroic in a couple of weeks. Failing that, I could try Seventh Sea or Horror on the Orient Express.
5. I would also like to run something via Infrno, and Crown of Kings for AFF2 is what I have planned. But it takes back seat to any face to face gaming, so it may not happen.
One year on from Chch & Aotearoa Gambit - weird. This has been a mad 12 months. That was a great project and the adventure is an excellent one I think.
ReplyDeleteMy gaming goal for the next 12 months is "find some time to do some gaming".
