Indie Tabletop RPG Demos

Heyo! I’m going to be running a few demos of the HoneyComb Engine, an open and extensible table-top RPG framework, this year. We’re currently hard at work finishing the handbook and plan on self-publishing in 2011, but we’re so eager to see what people think of it that we thought we’d unveil the finalized core ruleset at PAX Prime.

The system is designed to turn every encounter, from solving mysteries to waging epic battles, into a rewarding role playing experience and upends the typical power structure of RPG groups by putting players in charge of describing their own successes and failures.

I’ll be running a two-hour campaign, Space Pirates vs. Zombies!, a few times throughout the weekend and if you’d like to request a spot, you can sign up here: http://tiny.zakelro.com/HCE-PAX

If you can’t make any of the available time slots, but are still interested in hearing more, or playing something a bit shorter, I’ll most likely be ready to stop and run short 45 minutes scenarios at the drop of a hat. Just keep an eye out for the guy in a vintage sport coat with a curly handlebar moustache and rectangular glasses, or come check out my presentation on solving interpersonal conflicts around the gaming table, titled Game Masters vs Rules Lawyers, at noon on Saturday in the Raven Theatre.

    I'm so glad you made up something new. Me and my friends have been playing a Space Zombies vs. Pirates adventure as that's the "big thing" now. I'm so sick of Space Zombies. Full of stars my poop deck... yarr, they just want to eat me brains. :lol:

    Sounds like a cool idea though.

    BTW: That link takes me to some weird "Zakelro" login. Is it supposed to go to a schedule or something?

    Dratted typos! It's a Google form and I've fixed the link now. Thanks for brining it to my attention!

    That works way better! Thanks! I knew investing in a +3 Cap of Smartypants would pay off.

    I've made available a Master Tabletop Schedule (see http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=126450), where I believe I've included information about all of the RPGs listed in this thread, along with everything else regarding scheduling for all of Tabletop. If I missed any Indie RPGs, or you need to add more, please let me know, either in this thread, in the new thread, or via PM.
