Westmarch Campaign

  • Ethan made a copypasta to explain the concept
    • The copypasta requires some grammar editing
  • Basically there's a big world with lots of DMs running oneshots in the world that different players can join
  • There could be a problem with coordinating DMs
    • Normally there's a heirachy of DMs that organise and coordinate and make sure everything works
    • Ethan is willing to be head DM and organise everything
  • It could be hard for DMs to moderate the group
    • e.g. if DMs don't want certain players
    • We need to put in a system for us to take complaints and be able to moderate this
  • This would be intensive to organise and keep going (especially with all the events we do and fresher campaigns)
  • All DMs will need to make a committment to using the same system (5e)
  • We could book out the loft each week at the same time or we'd let DMs organise where they play
    • However fresher campaigns, events and standard campaigns get priority
  • We'll need to find enough experienced DMs to be involved and to get together to work things out
  • Could be a good thing for DMs who want more practice and players who want to join some campaigns
  • It's a very cool idea which would require lots of administration by us

Ethan: Make Westmarch Campaign interest poll on Facebook Emerald, Ethan: Make pretty intro post to Westmarch
