Description

System: Fabula Ultima   Platform: Foundry VTT + Discord (voice)   Time: GMT. 19:00. Any weekday except Monday. Hello all! I'm looking to start a Fabula Ultima campaign, which means I'm currently looking for up to 4 players to join me on an adventure inspired by some of the most beloved JRPGs out there! If you've ever played games like Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest or Octopath Traveler, you'll probably have a good idea of what to expect. If not, don't worry! Fabula Ultima brings the atmosphere and storytelling of classic JRPGs to the tabletop. Imagine a world filled with ancient ruins, strange little villages, floating kingdoms, mysterious forests, bizarre monsters and powerful villains with grand ambitions. A world where unlikely heroes grow through hardship, forge friendships and eventually find themselves facing challenges far greater than themselves. Most importantly, this is a story we'll build together. There is no pre-written adventure or predetermined plot. We'll create the world, its history, conflicts and locations together, with your characters and their choices driving the story forward. The System Fabula Ultima is designed around the experience of classic JRPGs. You don't need any prior experience with the genre or the system, but here's what you can expect: A story about heroes: This is a game about extraordinary individuals confronting extraordinary challenges. Your characters are destined for great things, and overcoming setbacks is just as important as achieving victories. Collaborative worldbuilding: We'll build our setting together! You'll have a say in its cultures, locations, history and conflicts. Your characters will be part of what makes this world unique. Character-driven storytelling: Your character's personality, motivations and relationships matter. The game rewards you for embracing their identity and playing into their personal story. Tactical, cinematic combat: Boss encounters are a major part of the experience. Enemies have unique abilities and mechanics, encouraging teamwork, clever strategies and combining your characters' strengths. Build your own hero: Characters are created by combining different classes, allowing for plenty of interesting combinations. Want to be a warrior who dabbles in alchemy or a gun-wielding mage? Go for it! Ultimately, the game is less concerned with realism and more interested in creating those larger-than-life adventures that make JRPGs so memorable. About myself The one line that best describes me as a GM is that I'm relaxed, friendly, and here to make sure everyone has a great time. My games are all about good vibes, fun and group chemistry. I am the biggest fan of my players' characters and will always hype you up and work with you to make the game unforgettable. I also like going full out when it comes to aesthetics so expect pixel sprites, jrpg-style combat-huds, and other cool stuff like that. While I am new at Fabula Ultima, I make up for it with years of experience in various other systems which I hope will inform my approach. I tend to lean more so towards atmospheric systems so this felt right down my alley. My Hopes I'm hoping to find a group of people who are just as interested in the experience of playing together as they are in the game itself. I'd love for us to develop a proper group dynamic, get invested in each other's characters, share a few laughs and create stories we'll look back on fondly. You don't need to be an experienced roleplayer or JRPG enthusiast. Newcomers are more than welcome! All I ask is that you're friendly, enthusiastic and willing to engage with the other players.  A creative mind is also very much appreciated! Game details We'll be using Discord for voice and Foundry VTT for everything else! You don't need to buy or download anything. I'll simply send you a link and you can join through your browser. How to apply All I require from you is to fill out this super short questionnaire to the best of your ability. Here is the questionnaire: Log in to view To conclude Thanks for taking the time to read my post! I'm really looking forward to introducing people to Fabula Ultima and seeing what kind of world and story we can create together. I'll keep the post up for a few days and conduct interviews in the coming days. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment and I'll do my best to answer them! Hope you all have a lovely day/evening, and I hope to hear from you soon!

2hr sessions every Friday 9pm UK / 10pm France / 4pm East Coast US. (Make no mistake, we pack a lot into the short run time and get straight down to business at game time). This is an invitation to join an established group of 3 players who take turns with the GM role. We are currently playing Pathfinder 1E but we have played other systems, and possibly will play more in the future. Right now, you'd be jumping into an adventure at level 6 tracking down a missing wizard in an abandoned part of the city. In this campaign story is the main driver, not combat, although both aspects are represented. I want to know what you hope to get out of the game. What are your favourite parts of playing?

Playtest
The game is still being tested, and your feedback is part of the point.
Gundam Missions is a cooperative tactical tabletop RPG for up to 5 players plus a Game Master (GM). It combines elements of tabletop RPGs, miniature wargames and tactical board games, with the focus placed on teamwork, objective-based missions and Mobile Suit combat rather than simply destroying every enemy on the battlefield. Each player takes the role of a pilot and controls their own Mobile Suit throughout the campaign. The GM runs the enemy forces, mission events, objectives and the wider campaign narrative. As the campaign progresses, players earn rewards, develop their pilots, customise their mission loadouts and gain access to new equipment and tactical options. Missions include scenarios such as Destroy, Escort, Sabotage, Capture and Rescue, alongside larger boss-style encounters. These are connected by light storytelling and an ongoing campaign narrative, eventually building towards a final confrontation with the campaign's recurring enemy commander — essentially the campaign's "Big Bad." The game is intentionally more of a tactical RPG than a traditional roleplay-heavy RPG. You won't need to spend hours acting in character or memorising Gundam lore. Most of your time will be spent making battlefield decisions with the rest of the party: choosing routes, managing resources, protecting allies, completing objectives and deciding when to fight, advance or fall back. Missions take place on a 48" × 72" battlefield using 2D terrain, objective markers and game tokens. Movement and weapon ranges are measured in inches, while combat uses dice rolls for attacks, defence and other effects. Mobile Suits have different movement, weapons, armour, equipment and battlefield roles, giving each player their own strengths while encouraging the group to work together as a proper squad. A major part of Gundam Missions is the use of physical 1/144 scale Gunpla models. Each player needs a 1/144 Mobile Suit model to represent their unit on the battlefield. You do not need to already own a Gunpla to play, as a suitable model can be provided. However, building and bringing your own kit is highly encouraged. Choosing, assembling and customising your own Mobile Suit is part of the RPG experience, and the idea is that you gradually develop a connection with the machine you take through the campaign. All other game materials — battlefield, terrain, tokens, objective pieces and supporting components — are provided. You also do not need to be a Gundam expert. Gundam fans will obviously recognise plenty of the machines and references, but previous knowledge of the anime or wider Universal Century timelines isn't required. If you enjoy tabletop RPGs, miniature wargames, tactical board games, Gunpla, or cooperative games and fancy trying something different, you should be able to pick the system up fairly quickly. The rules are designed to be approachable for new players while still offering enough tactical depth for experienced tabletop players. Individual missions are expected to last approximately 1–2 hours, with the first campaign currently planned to begin this autumn and sessions expected to run roughly every other week. Gundam Missions is a free-to-play, independent, fan-developed project and is still actively being playtested and refined. Rules, balance, missions and other systems may therefore change as development continues. While the project is in a playable state, players joining the first campaign won't just be playing the game — their feedback and experiences will also help shape and improve it as the project develops. If this idea excites you, you live locally and you're interested in joining the group, feel free to reach out!
