Currently, the only active game I’m in is a Shadowrun game, a pretty cinematic take on the genre. Enjoying the hell out of it. The SR4 book is not without flaw, but the Anniversary edition is much easier to navigate, and I’m really digging the system once I grokked some of the odder combat interactions.
Work on both “Filioque” and “Jade and Iron” is ongoing. Both are well past the “put the concepts on the page” level and are in the detail-filling stage, which tends to take me a super long time because I have a very short attention span, and am also terrible at NPC names.
Picked up Magic Burner, and it’s pretty great. It’s pushed me into basing Filioque on Burning Wheel, which does add to the prep (writing up life paths), but also lets me use a system I’ve been eyeing for a while anyway.
Rumors on the wind of another impending Exalted game being run by someone other than me, which is good news, because I always love me some Exalted.
Other than that, I’m not too fired up about anything right now. Neither WOD 2 nor D&D 4 particularly inspire me, and there’s not a lot of other product I’m seeing. What’s exciting these days?
I’m in a couple 4e games via the interwebs with my TF2 clan, but I think with school starting up for everyone they’re dying off fast. It’s enjoyable as a system I guess, but the people DMing are dull and I want to stab approximately half of the other players.
