The only gaming of the weekend was on Saturday, when the Testerfolk and Randy came over and we played Doyce’s Heroquest<\/a> Chinese fantasy campaign, Xian Quan<\/a>. Which is actually his Spring Fountain<\/a> campaign, but with different PCs, a few different players, and not set in France. I play the bright young cavalry veteran and idealistic\/chivalrous likable fellow, Kai Jiong<\/a>, while Margie plays the mysterious, magical pretty boy, Ro<\/a>. <\/p>\n

We actually spent 3\/4 of the time wrapping up chargen (mostly Randy, but a little bit from each of us) and getting character sheets all up to snuff. The actual gaming action<\/a> was fun, leading up to the first couple of “bangs” for the group as a whole (it’s interesting reading, in contrast, essentially the same set-up, but with different characters<\/a>). It will be interesting to see how the different PCs mesh, as well as get a better feel for HQ. As is my wont, I’m eschewing magic-centered characters for the moment (that many less rules for a lazy man to learn), but so far, I’m liking what I see.<\/p>\n

And, at last, this week, I have to get off my ass and get things ready for my long-long-loooooong-delayed IDC<\/a> game on Sunday.<\/p>\n
