The Lazy GM: Goblinoids,. Lots of prefigured goblins with class levels and templates. Enough to make a GM’s life a lot easier.

Next Game: Friday, June 8th
Unless you hear otherwise, we’re looking forward to continuing our escape from the Blood Mage’s sacrificial chambers on Friday.
If you’ll have a problem making it, please let everyone know.
It looks like Jennifer’s family won’t roll into town until Saturday, so we should be a go.

Game coming up: June 1st
We’re set up to resume Shadowrun Friday, June 1st. If that doesn’t work for you, let us know. Otherwise, Jennifer and I are looking forward to playing in the future of the city we just visited…
Also, Happy Birthday to Dad and Jennifer, today, May 29th!
See you all on Friday, chummers.

May Games looking dicey
UPDATE: This weekend just doesn’t work and neither does the next one. On to June!
This weekend (Friday 18th, Saturday the 19th) looks tricky to schedule games– right now we’re looking at playing catch as catch can. Right now we’re up against Dad not returning from the funeral until Friday late or Saturday, Kev and Christian have soap box racing on Saturday, and Jennifer’s team has a ballgame at Grizzlies Stadium Saturday.
The following weekend (Friday the 25th), Jennifer and I are getting on a plane for Seattle that afternoon at 4 pm, so we’ll be out of town before evening rolls around.

Next Game: May 11th
Keep an eye on the Scream Sheets— the disappearance of the Troll Killers is news!
We’re off this week (lots of people heading out of town), but should be ready to resume next week. The characters have all come off their overhaul and are ready to hit the shadows again…
Update: I was wrong again; this weekend (May 4th) both Dad and Jennifer will be out of town. So we’re looking at resuming on May 11th. Sorry for misinforming everyone.

Next Game: Unsure
A close friend of the family, Bill, died on Sunday. The funeral is Friday, and we’ll be hosting out of town guests, so we won’t be available on Friday.
Does another day work this weekend? Saturday afternoon and Sunday should be OK for us.
Thanks.
Scott
Old message:Our runners are ready for the conclusion of the solar-tech story… doubtless we’ll be presented with medals and a parade. (Or not…)
Kev mentioned that we’d do some character tweaking after the resolution, now that people understand the system a little better. So if there’s anything that bothers you about your character– or if there’s anything else you’re thinking about adding, keep it in the back of your mind and we’ll get it on the character sheets Friday.
Anything else?

Next Game: Friday April 13th
We pick up the investigation of SolarTech and its missing Chief of Operations.
Anyone have a thought about how to find the guy? If we come up with a strategy before the session, we might get more game time and less fumbling for an idea time. Any ideas that are “just crazy enough that it might just work”?
Comment here, or in the wiki.

Off until April 6th
Last weekend’s Shadowrun went very well… beware the pink stinkers! We’re missing this week, as Dad’s going to be visiting Eric and helping Myles with his recovery. We’re back to the normal schedule next week.
Does anyone want to keep a log, or are we as happy without?

Next Game: Friday March 23rd
We got off to a solid start last week. Can everyone make it this week? (I still think I can, though I may be late…)
Idea: We should call back the Johnson and tell him that his plans are out of date. See if we can get a little more money for correcting them, and see if he wants to give us a few more “soda cans” to cover the new area. If he doesn’t pay, we won’t tell him about the secret tunnel– but if he does, we should, offhandedly mention it, and see if he’s interested in adding to the reward. (Or if it seems important to him…)
