System of the Month December: Adventures in Ankh-Morpork

In a distant and second-hand set of dimensions, in an astral plane that was never meant to fly, the curling star-mists
waver and part… See…

Great A’Tuin the Turtle comes, swimming slowly through the interstellar gulf, hydrogen frost on his ponderous limbs, his huge and ancient shell pocked with meteor craters. Through sea-sized eyes that are crusted with rheum and asteroid dust He stares fixedly at the Destination.

In a brain bigger than a city, with geological slowness, He thinks only of the Weight.

Most of the weight is of course accounted for by the four giant elephants upon whose broad and star-tanned shoulders the disc of the World rests, garlanded by the long waterfall at its vast circumference and domed by the baby-blue vault of Heaven.

The Colour of Magic

Welcome to Terry Pratchett’s Discworld RPG: Adventures in Ank-Morpork. The Modiphius system will be available on Kickstarter soon, but the quickstarter is already available!

We are playing the mystery intro adventure “Up in Smoke”. You embody up to 5 members of the Ankh-Morpork City Guard (pre-made characters) and have been sent out to investigate the raid on the Sunshine Home for Sick Dragons. For those in the know: We are playing around the time of Thud!.

The rules are very simple and focus heavily on role-playing. There is little fighting (and only with normal skill tests – there is no weapon damage or similar) and the focus is entirely on immersing yourself in the bizarre world of Terry Pratchett – but you don’t have to know it to have fun!

TLDR: 3-5 players, in German, pre-made characters, two different groups.

Registration soon via SwissRPG MeetUp.

System of the Month November: Draw Steel!

Folks, it’s time to DRAW STEEL! Taking the Keywords Tactial, Heroic, Cinematic and Fantasy, MCDM promise to cut down on the slog of traditional RPGs and to bring fast, thrilling combat with tactical depth. And we will check out, if they hold their promise!

In their playtest adventure The Fall of Blackbottom you will fight armies of demons while saving civilians during a full scale attack of AJAX THE INVINCIBLE OVERLORD on Blackbottom!

For this, we will generate characters before the game or use the provided pregens whatever you prefer.

I will run the adventure twice, once in english and once in german.

Event is full

System of the Month October: 10 Candles

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.

For the second time, GM Max offers us the opportunity to try out this very low-rule game of pure improvisation 4 times in October! 2 dates are reserved for KuList players. The games will be played in English.

The games are happening on the
10th, 15th, 23rd & 29th of October at 6pm
10th and 29th are reserved for KuLists.

All sessions fully booked

System of the Month September: Kids on Bikes

You are teenagers in the small, 80’s inspired town Arcadia. Equipped with nothing but your wits, gadgets and bikes of course, you’ll have to be creative to solve a mystery that has been plaguing your neighbourhood. But don’t worry though, you wont have to do it alone.

Kids on Bikes is a role-playing game played by 3 to 5 people and me, the GM. If you’ve seen Stranger Things or played Life is Strange, you know what you are in for. Because you are playing such young characters, violence will be a last resort – if you play to your strengths and work as a team, you might not need it at all. Role-play and improvisation is very important in this game, as there will be little combat.

GM Cedric will be playing the one-shot adventure Of Kids on Bikes over the course of 4 hours with you. This game is appropriate for players ages 12+. Character creation is handled at the table but requires some preparation at home. We will be role-playing in English.

Sign up on MeetUp here!

System of the Month August: Desperation

Desperation is a card-based, gothic horror storytelling RPG. Based in historical 19th Century settings, participants will be asked to decide who says or does the things that must unfold until either the story concludes…or everyone dies.

These games will inevitably explore dark themes such as death and violence, but may also touch upon other sensitive topics. Discussion about safety tools (safety cards + lines and veils) will take place at the table ahead of the game.

Suitable for players ages 14+. Each session can accommodate up to 4 players. No dice, pens, paper, or character creation required!
The games will be held in English.

GM Kieran offers you two different adventures:

The Isabel

A three-masted schooner, her pig-headed Captain and crew of malcontents, and passengers with unsavory secrets, are on a course that puts them in the teeth of a vicious gale. The ship is sinking, and the survivors are only just beginning an odessey of horror. On the high seas, through the punishing surf, and finally on a forbidding shore, the living may well envy the dead.

Dead House

There’s a blizzard coming, an unholy storm that will bury the town of Neola as sure as the frozen ground will refuse to receive their dead. Because the citizens of Neola are going to suffer, and the tested, and be found wanting. They are going to kill and worse. The dead house is going to be full.

Register now!

There is a channel for pregame hype and discussion on the KuL-Discord.
