Hi
I'm going to be running an online game and I'm looking for 2 more players
(I have one now)
It will be using the WebRPG software. (if you don't have it just check it
out at http://www.webrpg.com).
The schedule is tentative...but looks like it will be every other Wednesday
6:30 - 11:30 (or so) (US EST). The time is pretty much set but the day
may change...it will still be every other week however.
I'll be running my California Campaign. It's set in...well, now I can't
remember...basically the year that the CFS Sourcebook is set. It's not
going to be an open-ended campaign, there will be a set ending, though I'm
the worlds worst estimator and so how long would be questionable. Online
usually takes a bit longer but I'm guessing it'd be at least a dozen
sessions...every other week...well that turns it into 24 weeks right there.
It won't be a normal SR campaign with lots of shadowruns. The characters
will basically be nomadic, wandering from place to place, worried most
about survival. There will be no lifestyles, if you're lucky enough to
find a place to sleep you'll pay by the night. Equipment is limited to
what you can carry or put in a vehicle (if you purchase one). Because of
these changes I'll allow some gm-approved leeway. If you've read the CFS
book, great, if not I can give you the background information you'll need.
(Focused in the Northern Crescent).
Character types not allowed Deckers, Drone-Concentrated Riggers
The game will be SR3. SR3 or Companion creation rules allowed, however I'm
not looking for any game-breakers. Because I'm going online I need people
who know the mechanics of whatever type of character they play. There
won't be enough time to explain spell casting or anything like that for
example.

I think that's about it. If you're interested or want more information,
email me privately.
Don't just send me a character. I'm just looking for interest at this
point, then we'll discuss the character, etc.
