Exploring the Frontier

Hey folks! After a great campaign and seeing how involved people were I thought I'd invite everyone to check out a d&d sandbox game I run on a different (and not nearly as fancy) forum.

Here's the little blurb I wrote up ages ago when I was advertising.

Hey everyone! I’m running a pretty casual play by post game. It’s D&D 3.5, and it’s a big sandbox game. It’s play by post forum style, not over discord or skype. There’s a few existing players and we’re looking for a few more to bulk the numbers. Players will spend a fair bit of time exploring the setting in their own threads, solo. If players need support, or find a mission that requires a bit more muscle, then they work together in a shared thread to complete the adventure. The theme is exploration and cooperation.

Your character has recently arrived to the Frontier, a place that was once thriving but has now fallen into decay as the wilderness reclaims the land. Joining the local adventuring guild you have total freedom to explore as you see fit. Some players have sworn to reclaim the land for civilization, some just want to get rich, and others just want the glory. The entire guild is players only, so there’s no NPC’s bossing you around. Your free to go anywhere and do anything.

Details: - The game is pretty casual. If people are interested in a certain kind of adventure, or want to do certain things the DM is pretty accommodating. - Frequent posting is nice but not required. Especially with a lot of solo play involved you can pretty much post when you want/have time. However if your in a group adventure your encouraged to post regularly.
- Characters start at level 3, core rulebook only. (Players handbook.) Other stuff might be allowed as you advance, but that’s between you and the DM to work out.
- Dice rolling is done by the DM for just about everything, to save time and any concerns about cheating.
- The setting is a bit of a homebrew world, with a lot of influence from D&D and Warhammer worlds. It started as traditional D&D and kinda evolved as players wanted to do different things.
- The DM will work with you to make characters that fit. It doesn’t matter if you’re super inexperienced or have played for years, you’ll fit in here.


The forum is http://z13.invisionfree.com/NorthernGamerz/index.php?act=idx if you want to check it out. We've got a good number of humans and several dwarves, but alas the last half orc met his demise when he got ripped apart by a dragon.

if your interested in a pretty casual game to kill some time in let me know. We're always after new players.

Glad to hear! Hope your eye's heal quickly!

It's a bit of a strange game. Because of the casual-play-around-work-schedule idea most players actually spend a fair bit of time adventuring solo. So everyone plays at their own rate on their own, but there's still lots of team work on an almost strategic scale instead as they share info and plan where to go delving or who to talk to.
