I see how late I am to the party, but I thought I'd weigh in on your first posts:

Pathfinder and D&D are big draws, but generally I'm not a fan and avoid them. I like the White Wolf system just fine, especially for an old-school Vampire campaign. I have the Astra Militarum book for Warhammer 40K, so I am familiar with the system. I just don't have the rules to play anything more exotic than a guardsman.

From my back-of-the-envelope calculations (literally, on the back of an envelope tallying choices up), it looks like in popularity the following are the winners:

5e:
Icewind Dale
Wild Beyond the Witchlight

PF2E:
Extinction Curse
Agents of Edgewatch

Wouldn't mind your new 1st choices, Team. Also, if there is just heavy interest in the 5e campaigns over the PF2E, I could always just run two 5e Campaigns rather than splitting it up.

I still think Ghosts of Saltmarsh would be grand. Pirates! Sailing!

But I may be the only one. I think the underdark one had a fair amount of support too. But more importantly, what do YOU want to run?

Of the two listed in your last post, would prefer Icewind Dale. Probably. I remain uncommitted between the two. :P

Happy New Year!!! :D

Now that the winter holidays are over, I'm getting back into Posting and into working on these Games. If there's any more feedback on game preference I welcome it, but regardless I'll be making my Game Choices by the end of the week.

I chose my picks from my interest in something that remains grounded in a classic fantasy DnD setting. I guess that would also include Ghosts of Saltmarsh. Having read a brief blurb about it, I could see a way to make the character I wanna use fit in with the tone. The tone is not necessarily comparable to Skulls and Shackles, right? For the Abyss, I would want to give the party a buffer, or some handicap, before they jump into the deep end, considering how dangerous the Underdark can be the moment you enter.

Still angling for a g'nome eldritch knight.

5E Icewind Dale & Pathfinder Extinction Curse were my two top choices and I'm sticking with them. I'm definitely in for PCs in both if you have room.
