Meetup 5 - The Swiss have arrived at the Port-Noir, roll for Initiative!

Prizes! Door prizes for those who arrive at the start of the Meetup. There was roughly 15 euro left in the donation jar after the last Meetup which will be used for door prizes this time around.

Games:

GM: Ben & Tim
Games session: 1
Title: The Spiritfire - Speed Crawl
Recommended Number of Players: 2 groups of 3
Game System and Setting: D&D 3.5
Level of Player Experience Needed: intermediate
Summary: Long ago, the peoples of the world came across an artifact-like force that they named The Spiritfire. This inextinguishable flame seemed to contain a primal energy of such magnitude that it could even rip holes through the planes. Such power was coveted by many, but none were able to fully unlock it's secrets so it was hidden away and protected, and after generations it was all but forgotten. The only ones who remembered the Spiritfire were those who would suffer or profit were it to be once again uncovered.

As is the nature of such things, the Spiritfire has once again become violently uncovered.

Title: Just a Simple Job
Recommended Number of Players: 4-5
Game System and Setting: Shadowrun 3rd Edition (Free rules here)
Level of Player Experience Needed: None. D6's needed.
Summary: The year is 2060. Magic is as real as the mean streets of the mega-sprawls. Corporations call the shots while nailing each other through covert operatives in cutthroat competition. Flesh and machines have merged -- the street samurai with his smartguns and impossibly fast reflexes, the decker who can plug his own brain into the worldwide computer network, the rigger who links his mind to his vehicle and takes hairpin turns at fantastic speeds. And you're a part of this wired world, where corporate skyscrapers glitter over the dark shadows they cast. You live in those shadows. You're a shadowrunner -- a street operative.

GM: Wouter
Games session: Flexible
Title: The Trouble with Franchise
Recommended Number of Players: 4
Game System and Setting: D&D 3.5

Summary: Wizards and their schemings never cease. In this case, a prominent wizarding college has decided to set up a new branch of the school, and sent one of their senior staff off to get it started. Now they've lost contact with the daft old codger, and need some hardy types to track him down. Guess who gets the job?

Mediator: Ben and/or Tim
