DeSTG I: A Fallen Star
I present for your consideration
DeSTG I: A Fallen Star. It is a reasonably quick game (circa 2 updates a month with a month of writing now, as Decamper's super busy) combining story and board game elements, as this game does. It has an actively evolving rule set with player input into such decisions. It has several well-established colonies that need a shake-up from a second wave effort. Decamper and the players themselves will make sure this is fair and that you are all welcomed in. The ruleset is intuitive and Decamper and I, at least, check in almost every day.
Its setting is fantasy (Pathfinder/D&D 3.5 inspired with player brought nuance). Specifically you are colonial (interpret how you wish) expeditions charting a newly discovered large island/small continent initially in search of a unique magical resource. You pick out a particular tropey race then fill out some details such as the type of mission/parent nation (are you imperialists (I ended up inverting this with anti-imperials from an imperial nation) or industrialists or escaped convicts) and your starting characters (required are two heroes and a colonial leader). Orders are all publicly visible by default, so you can see players' styles and the level of detail required, but can and probably will become private PMs as required.
Exciting new mercenary mechanic has been introduced for players looking for an unconventional/lighter playstyle more based around stories and combat. However, there is no guarantee you'd be hired and you would have to talk to Decamper about the specifics of implementation. I would love to collab with a player interested with my Knights of the Great-Mother for example.
But really we want a few more colonial players. There is one living NPC still to take over. Theocratic monotheistic orcs. Nothing more yet defined really beyond a few characters. Possible opponents to the necromancers and their colonial venture? End up allying against common foes like drakes and trolls to survive this harsh new world? Both?
Come and explore the world of DeNES. It's a fantastical new world!
It's a Frontier game so PM me or Decamper (or post here) if interested and we'll get you approved.
