[Churchofgaming] [Krononauts] New Games

[Carl Brown]

Hi all,
THe idea for the one-offs would include pregenerated characters as was
done for the Fantasy Craft one-off recently. I agree though judging how
much stuff to put in an adventure to fit one session exactly is
difficult. With the FC game I ran a smidge too short. Maybe a back-up
campaign is the way to go it would have to episodic though.
