Default Interested in starter game of WFRP?

Okay, I've been exchanging emails with one of my school-mates, and I've conviced her to try out WFRP via Play-by-post/Play-by-email Role-playing. I need another player (well... I could do it without another player, but it would be much more fun if I have had 2 or three more people).

You don't need the rule book (though it'd help!), dice (I'll do all the dice rolling on my virtual dice roller, and if your picky, I can give you links to everything), or anything really... just a character concept and the knoweldge that you can't really do much unless the GM gives you permission.

Now, the biggest difference between Play By Post Roleplaying and what we are doing here is that we are using proper rules and stuff in Play By Post stuff. IE if you want to open a locked door, you can't just say, "I open the locked door" instead say, "I attempt to open locked door" and I'll decide if you can (via die roles, or some other means). Also, you will have a proper character class, and weapons and stuff... its a lot more limited.

Anyways... other than that, its all the same!

Oh, I will be running Through the Drakwald, a adventure set near Middleheim right after the Storms of Chaos.

So... any takers?

Hmm... I don't have a "link" to the rules, however, its a percentile system, and I can explain the basic rules to you if need be.

I do have a virtual dice roller... http://pbphouse.com/portal/index.php...pper&Itemid=78

other than that... ya... thats all I need.

Check www.blackindustries.com

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is the system... I don't the name of the core book if it is anything different than that name.

Oh, and we will be running the Core book's intro scenario... so if you do buy it, DO NOT READ THAT ADVENTURE!

Which is honestly no problem. And, IIRC, somewhere on the black industries site there is a "starter" game, which contains the basic rules for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay.

If you can't aquire the book... just give me a character concept and I'll tell you what I think works... and honestly, you can be ANYTHING... sailor, beggar (sorta... I can find a redo of the old version's career), thief, soldier, scout, hunter, charcoal burner, ratcatcher, camp follower... you get the idea.

Oh, and this is not met to be a heroic campaign... we're all nice and poor.

ADD-ON: Also are we playing by posting in 40K or by email? if its by email my address will be mkeatman@hotmail.co.uk (its one of my alt accounts i keep for stuff that i really dont want to overlook in the jumble of day-to-day emails).

nearest thing I could find on BL's site was a page on small but vicious dogs...and Protagonist was the class...so either that or some kind of soldier/ swashbuckler, just to see how it goes. If you can send me a link via pm I'll see if I can do any more research myself...it'll take at least a week for me to get the book myself, and thats if BL send it out on time...

Umm... unless Ikarus and Co have problems with us using this board (a 40k board... not Warhammer), I'd like to use the RP board here.

Oh, and, you don't have to randomly choose your career... everything else you do randomly, but I've decided that you can choose your career.

Umm... Warrior/swashbuckler... I'll PM you a list of all careers that involve combat as a major part of their careers... plus a description if they are not self-explanatory.

The rules were really quick start rules, but more of basic "what skills are" and "how you role your skill tests" stuff.

Post all your stats up in this thread.
