Monthly Games Moved (Again!)
Beginning January 2008, the monthly games at
Flights were moved to the third (3rd) Thursday, instead of
the fourth (4th) Monday, in the hope it would foster better
attendance. The attempt was unsuccessful. As a result, we
will still be committed to one event a month at Flights, but
GMs may schedule it for any evening or weekend that fits their
schedule. Remember, all events need to be posted AT LEAST
2 weeks prior to the event. However, earlier is preferred
to simplify scheduling and avoid conflicts. It is up to the
GM to verify that a venue is available prior to scheduling
the game.
A Venue Has Moved In January, Flights of Fantasy moved to 381 Sand Creek Road. Check their website for updates. Check ours to make sure of where you are going. GMs are still encouraged to hold events at a variety of venues as your schedule permits.
Events for 2008 The dates for the SWA Game-A-Thons, Council of Five Nations, the Flights Game Days, UBCon, Albacon, and BadCon will soon be posted to the left. GMs are needed for all open dates as we are committed to most of these events. We especially need GMs for upcoming conventions. Remember, if you are not already an approved GM, your first game must be attended by an existing approved GM. As a general rule, if an event is listed to the left as "Open", we are obligated to the event and need a GM for it. Please volunteer if your schedule permits.
FCSGL Policies The Policies Statement is available on-line. Members and Users of this site are reminded that they have agreed to the statement by participating in events or using this site. In compliance with FCSGL existing policy, any changes to the statement will be effective 30 days from the posting date.
Rule Changes
Remember to occasionally check out the page for
rules changes that
will become effective next season. Everybody is expected to
comply with them. A new rule book will be offered in PDF form
to replace the one currently on the website. It will include
all rules changes up through Season 14. It should be available
in July 2008. The following decisions have been made and will
take effect with the first game of Season 13. (1) Only characters
of a corresponding level can be fielded. For example, only
characters up through level 8 can be fielded for a Beginner
Level game. For example, only characters levels 8 - 14 can
be fielded for a Novice level game. Etc.. (2) The XP Penalty
has been dropped.
A Note on Evil Characters The League has no objection to players including evil characters on their teams. However, it is up to the player to come up with a legitimate reason for it. There are perfectly valid reasons why someone would do "good deeds" and still be evil. Just because the deed is "good" doesn't mean the motivation is. Are you spying on the forces of good? Are you after profit? Does helping them with their goals help you with some other goal? Are you helping to eliminate the "competition"? In any case, it IS NOT appropriate to simply cause chaos during sessions simply because you are evil. If this is your plan, then do not include the character on your team. The other teams are perfectly justified in eliminating your character in these circumstances and you are wasting game play.
Non-FCSGL News D&D Savage Tide campaign - Looking for Player(s) Posted by Steve Warfield Location: Personal Residence As one of the players has to back out owing to personal issues, we are hoping to find another (one or more) to join the Iron Gamers Guild in the D&D Savage Tide adventure path that was from the pages of Dungeon. Or maybe it was Dragon. I forget, but as I'm not the DM I'm not too concerned. In any event, if interested check out the Iron Gamers Guild wiki (http://irongamersguild.wikidot.com/) for more info as to how the campaign has progressed so far, what rule variants we are using and how to contact us if interested. Oh, we play on Tuesdays from ~6:30 to 10, 11-ish in the evening, but that is somewhat flexible depending on what everyone's' schedules are like for any given week.
