Master’s Talk in January

By

On 21. December 2023

In Events EN

TAGS:

The Master’s Talk will be held in English.

If the terms “action adjudication”, “railroad” and “three-clue-rule” make you look perplexed, if you are interested in the delicate art of game mastery (see also What is Pen & Paper?) or if you have already honed it to near perfection, then the Master’s Talk is the perfect event for you!

With the Master’s Talk, we have created a vessel where game masters can exchange ideas about battlemap design, discuss questions about past game sessions, or share their experiences.

This Master’s Talk will be held on Friday, January 26th from 6 p.m. to approximately 8:30 p.m. in the KuL-Room. Be there!

To make the Master’s Talk a little different from a loose meeting over a cold drink, we have come up with some topics that we would like to discuss. There will be short inputs on various topics prepared by some of the game masters to start a discussion. Because we have so many questions for our fellow game leaders and hope others have as many.

1. topic: Overland Travel

Listen to long-time DM Andrea‘s thoughts on travel and discuss the best options: Play it out or just skip it?

1. topic: tba

Unfettered exploration

Welcome to the 5th season of Pathfinder Society! In the new year we begin the next chapter and start with an intro game. We will meet on 10 January 2024 at 17:30 until about 23:00 in the (also new) chambers of our association. It will be the adventure 5-01: Year of the Unfettered Exploration: Intro and will be played in Swiss German (or in standard German if this works better for individual players).

It’s time to explore! With the Society coming off of their recent victory in finally defeating an old enemy, they choose to turn to refocus on the goals of the Pathfinder Society: Explore! Report! Cooperate!

As a celebration for such a successful year, there’s a party being hosted with all sorts of friends both new and old in attendance. However, when one of Fola Barun’s dear friends needs to be entertained in order to prepare a surprise, it’s up to the Pathfinders to show him around the famous Maze of the Open Road. When he starts to encourage exploration, new doors appear and new adventures await!

The adventure is suitable for characters of levels 1-4. It is also open to new players who do not yet have any role-playing experience and/or are not yet familiar with the Pathfinder system in its 2nd edition.

Sign Up

You can sign up via Meetup.
Keep in mind that this adventure will be played in German.

System of the Month January: Alice is missing

By

On 5. December 2023

In Events EN

TAGS:

Alice is Missing is a silent role-playing game about the disappearance of Alice Briarwood, a high school junior in the small town of Silent Falls. Players, instead of speaking, send text messages back and forth to the other players in a group chat, as well as individually, as though they aren’t in the same place together. Hauntingly beautiful, Alice is Missing puts a strong focus on the emotional engagement between players, immersing them in a tense, dramatic mystery that unfolds organically through the text messages they send to one another.

As in December GM Max offers us four opportunities to try this special game! The game will be held in english and players need to bring a fully charged smartphone.

The games will happen on the
9.1., 16.1., 23.1. & 30.1. at 6pm

Sign up

If you want to participate or have questions, please contact us at info@kul-verein.ch with the subject “Alice, date you wish to play“.

System of the Month December: Ten Candles

By

On 30. October 2023

In Events EN

TAGS:

Ten Candles is a “tragic horror” game rather than survival horror for one main reason: in Ten Candles there are no survivors. In the final scene of the game, all of the characters will die. In this, Ten Candles is not a game about “winning” or beating the monsters. It is a game about being pushed to the brink of madness and despair, searching for hope in a hopeless world, and trying to do something meaningful with your final few hours left.

There will be 4 different opportunities for you to try this purely improvisational and very rules light game with GM Max!

The games will happen on the
4.12., 11.12., 18.12. & 27.12. at 6pm

Sign up

If you want to participate or have questions, please contact us at info@kul-verein.ch with the subject “10candles, date you wish to play“.

Signups so far:

  • 4.12.: 5/5 – full
  • 11.12.: 5/5 – full
  • 18.12.: 5/5 – full
  • 27.12.: 5/5 – full
