Join me at the Discord! And "Single Shot Saturdays!"

Hey, Good News!

Over the past few months or so, I have been slowly building a base of like minded individuals and players through out the world of social media. And to help make the connection easier, I have decided to open up and run my very own Discord Server. Yes, everyone and their dog has their own discord server now days. But I still wanted to have mine. Big thing for me is it allows me to interact with other players while I am away at regular interval work trips.

So I figured its time to widen the group a bit, and invite people to interact / announce games / Looking for Groups and post what ever gaming ideas they may have over on the discord. So feel free to join at Jolly's RPG Server

The games I am focusing on are: (these are all systems that I play)

• GURPS.
• Anything 2D20.
• Anything Free League Publishing.
• Anything Savage Worlds.
• Anything Fantasy Flight Games. 
• Advanced Fighting Fantasy.
• And maybe anything else, if you ask nice.. 

So if you are a person who likes to play roleplaying games on Virtual Tabletop, then feel free to drop by, say hello, roll some dice. Make yourself at home at the Jolly Discord and maybe make a few new friends along the way.

Also, I am super excited to announce a pet project, I am calling Single Shot Saturday. Where I host various one shot adventures of the various Role-playing games that I play. But with a twist.. I will choose the setting, and I will create the characters. And my players will choose why they are together, and what they want to do. And the rest.. will be made up as we go along! With no prep, other then our imaginations! Total improvisation, that should be a blast!

My first Single Shot Saturday is going to be on May 19th. Which I will broadcast live on twitch! Game to be announced next week when I open it up to players.

So I Hope to be seeing you at the Discord!

MAD MAX: My Conversion

Hi

Sometime ago, I started to work on a Savage Worlds Conversion for my own Mad Max setting. After lots of drafts and attempts to get the feeling of the game that I wanted, I ended up scraping the use of Savage Worlds.

Savage Worlds made a real easy conversion too. With Hell On Earth, Darwins World, and Broken Earth as source material I was able to get a good post apocalyptic setting. But I had some issues with the flavor of it. Mainly for me, it didn't capture the feeling of grit, diesel fumes and amalgamation of monster truck and roadsters.

I looked at a pile of other systems, one which I really liked.. Atomic Highway.. which looks fun and its FREE at DriveThruRPG. But again, not quite what I wanted. I wanted to use a system that I could have total control over, with out having to fudge or make up to many of my own rules to make it work and with out loosing any balance of the system.

I decided to go with GURPS. And I must say, its been a real pleasure to work with. I havent ran a GURPS game in years, its one of my favorites and is something I ran for a very long time in the 90s and early Y2K's. And its bringing back a lot of good memories.

Well I been busy the last week. I come up with several character templates to use if a player wanted to use. Here are the template ideas and my Waste Land Adventure Map made with Hex Kit (Bottom)


Road Warrior - Your wandering hero type

Imperator - A strong iron willed leader type

Organic Mechanic - Your Healer Type

Black Thumb - Your Mechanical Type

War Boy - Your crazy and fearless type

Raider - Your highly resourceful, and mobile warrior type

Wastelander - Jack of all trades survivor type

Ferrals - Your wild melee specialist type

And last but not least, my Wastelands Adventure Map..
