Nemesis Campaign - Comments

[procyon (OP)]

I haven't stopped working on this, and apologize for the long wait.

Fall is a busy time on a farm and I have had my hands full this year, and I have also been busy with a few other projects that have occupied my time.  We wrapped up one of our RPGs and have been starting up another based on a post apocalyse type world. (My kids got hooked on the Fallout games and then found my old copy of 'Aftermath'...).

But the farm work is winding down and I hope to finish the next two parts by this coming weekend or the beginning of the week after.  I have the rough drafts done but really want to get these right....

So hold on, they are on the way.

Glad to hear everything is ok. I was starting to worry a bit

I haven't heard of Aftermath for a long time. Dreadful system but played a long and fun campaign of it in the 1990's.

There was a fair amount of dust on the box.  The last time I would have run it was in college at ISU in the late 80's.

It is a rather complicated system, but after years of Starfire the older kids just breeze right through it.  The 11y/o occasionally needs a little help ( I rolled a 6 and need to take it times 1.3 for damage....), but the older kids, mom, or I give him a hand when he gets stuck.

great for increasing your kid's math skills. RPG is educational all round <smile>

I know, the Mary Reed gone - say it isn't so!

Bloody hell I want faster updates, I am sitting on the edge of my seat at the moment. Can Earth defend itself, will Mars fall, can a United Earth counter attack,the last one I think not. The fsc is effectively wiped out, the chinese are very solitary and the US and Euro ships as woefully under gunned.

Hope to have one more part typed up before the weekend is done.  It looks like Feb will go to 26 or 27 parts, depends on how long I make them.

Not to spoil anything, but the worst hasn't come to pass yet....

Now that is just plain evil....

We're up to part 23, and on one hand you say that there's only 3 or 4 parts to go - but on the gripping hand you say that the worst is yet to come...

Talk about leaving us in suspense!

Ok, between holidays, deer season, and a Bob Seger concert, I have been a lot busier than I had intended.

I will post the next part before the weekend is out and promised my wife that I would have Feb done by New Years.

Thanks for waiting.

I'll hold you to that!

And as to the waiting, de nada. It's worth it......

When I see a new post it gives me a little smile. Remember that when you say "Not tonight"

Next post is already done.  I will be stopping by my mother's house to pick up her presents for the kids after work in the am.  Should be posted NLT 0900/CST.

Assuming I don't get a bad baby right at the end of shift.  That could put it back a few hours.

Post after that should be on X mas eve or X mas.  I and my wife are still 'debating' the post and how it should go.  

Post 26 represents about 30 minutes in game and took a little less than 90 minutes to play.

Post 27 takes a little over 10 minutes in game.
It took nearly 8 hours over 3 days........

[procyon (OP)]

Going to try and post part 27 in two 'parts'.

RL has interposed itself in my ability to reach my mother's house to post, so I am typing it in at work during free time/breaks.

Many apologies for the wait.
