[Churchofgaming] New Games

[Carl Brown]

If Young Gods ends soon then at that point perhaps we consider splitting
into two tables. 

As I have previously stated I've got one more short krononauts in me
then I'd be looking to run something with less prep time. High on my
list are Fantasy Craft and Diaspora but there are others. Let's get the
new boys up and running then I'll pick something as different as
possible from games already running.
If when krononauts winds up we split into two tables on that week as
well, we would be able to run 4 games over a fortnightly schedule.

As a fan of Planescape since it was released I would relish the
opportunity to play in the setting. 40k I haven't looked at since my
high school group attempted to use the first print of the wargame to
rpg, its a grim universe that appeals to an old goth.
