==Details==
==Where==
Meeting at Craig's in Darwen, 28th-31st of March
Delpine's apartments


==Travel==
==When==
Flights booked - Arrive at Liverpool on Friday 09.05, depart Monday at 17.45 - [[User:Bert|Bert]]


Long weekend of 11-14 September.
David and I are coming by car; we'll be arriving around 1600h on Friday and leaving Monday a.m. - [[User:Henry|Henry]]


==Travel==
==Planned Activities==


Is it flights to Frankfurt?? [[User:Craig|Craig]]
=== Game 1 ===
: Yes. But make sure it's the real Frankfurt (FRA) and not Frankfurt Hahn (HHN) which is 120 km away. -- [[User:David|David]] ([[User talk:David|talk]])
==== Type? - day? - DM? ====


==Shopping==
I could run a game but would prefer to play instead. Perhaps someone who hasn't DMed before could try a short game? Bert? -- [[User:David|David]]
Delphine, do you have a plan? [[User:Craig|Craig]] ([[User talk:Craig|talk]])<br />
:Hmm I'll think about it. Does anyone know of a good source of pre-made adventures?-- [[User:Bert|Bert]]
Previous [[shopping_list]], not sure how applicable this is to Deutschland.
::You could try here [http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/oa/20030530b http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/oa/20030530b] for some premade ones (I have read "A dark and Stormy Knight", which seemed reasonable - but is obviously spoiled for me). Not sure of the quality of the rest. Or you can try to build something around the things here [http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/vv http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/vv] -- [[User:Craig|Craig]]


==Planned Activities==
::I, too, have read "Dark and Stormy Knight". It seemed entertaining enough; there's always going to be good ones and bad ones. As a first-time DM, particularly for a short session, you may find it easier to run a "kick in the door" style game than a roleplay-heavy "talk the politics" game. As for level, IMO low-level games are easier rules-wise, and faster, but there's something satisfying about being of a high-enough level to take things down hard. -- [[User:Henry|Henry]]


====Characters====
===Game 1===
====David's Campaign====
--Add yours here--


Characters:
=== Game 2 ===
====Level 1 D&D game - day? - Craig as DM ====

A new adventure that I want to continue at a later date.

====Characters====

:Playing two characters doesn't work so well in my experience. -- [[User:David|David]]
:: Point noted :-) -- [[User:Craig|Craig]]
:Which rules books are currently "in"? I have a number of ideas but don't want to do too much prep. until I know if my character will be of any use. I might be keen to try one of the more exotic arcane classes (warmage, or Truenamer, perhaps...) -- [[User:Henry|Henry]]
::3.5 rules - Alternative Base classes should be OK as long as they're official, but no psionics. Don't go too OTT though, I'm not an experienced DM with the basics, never mind additions. -- [[User:Craig|Craig]]
:Wouldn't mind knowing this myself. Been thinking of something like the Swashbuckler or Hexblade from Complete Adventurer. -- [[User:Bert|Bert]]

=== Sunday ===
===Game 2: ===
====Late morning suggestion====
* A nice walk up the hill to the tower (takes less than an hour, but is relatively steep) -- [[User:Craig|Craig]]
====Afternoon suggestions====
* Bring a laptop for Half-Life/Counter Strike deathmatches? Or a multi-player NWN/BG2 game?
It's only a suggestion - we can do plenty of other things
I have a laptop and a desktop that we can do this on so we'd only need 3 more.
I have a wired hub, or wireless.
The original Half-Life can be installed on multiple machines :-O (and I have it) -- [[User:Craig|Craig]]


====Henry's Zeitgeist Campaign====
:I don't have a laptop. -- [[User:David|David]]
Characters:
:I do have a laptop; it's a Vista beast and the wireless can be finicky at times. I don't have either HL or CS, so would need to do some quick cheeky installing... -- [[User:Henry|Henry]]
:I´ll bring my laptop plus NWN and BG2. -- [[User:Hannele|Hannele]]

==Accommodation==


Do we need to bring anything Delphine? [[User:Craig|Craig]] ([[User talk:Craig|talk]])
[[Category:IRL]]
: Yes, bring anything you might need to run campaigns, I have no books, no figurines (although surely the kids have enough junk ;)), extra dice etc. Otherwise, we'll make do with sheets and stuff, I have more than enough blankets and towels for you all. Carry books rather than towels. :D [[User:Notafish|Delphine]] ([[User talk:Notafish|talk]]) 20:13, 26 August 2015 (BST)
: Also, I have two available rooms, one with one bed and the possibility of adding a matress, the other with enough floor space for up to 3 matresses. There is plenty of space floor and matresses for all of you to be comfortable, but you will have to share rooms, so be wary of who snores and who doesn't (Arne and I snore but then we have our room ;-)). Just sayin'! [[User:Notafish|Delphine]] ([[User talk:Notafish|talk]])
