Uninspired Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Hello all

I would like to write some more stories, but I don't have any games that I have played recently that I can use to write about. I was wondering if some of you guys wouldn't mind helping me out a little.

Would anyone be willing to share their games with me, and I could spin them up into some story? I would love to write about the adventures of others...besides, it may be fun for everyone involved.

Post here if you are interested.

Take care.

that, I am afraid, would not be possible as this has been one of the most enjoyable and addictive games I have played in a long time.

Since I love talking about my games, but have only mustered the patience to make a story out of one of them (In Vino Veritas), I am more than willing to provide the info for you to base a story upon - so long as we're not talking about turn-by-turn notes, which I do not do.

My present game is pretty epic, since it's on Marla's world map. It is taking FOREVER because my computer is kinda low-end, but it's been pretty awesome thus far.

Anyway, what kind of story are you looking for? I've just completed a war (DIE, bad Ghandi man!), and that's the easiest to write about, I would imagine. Said war has involved a revolution (republic -> democracy) and the start of the great Chinese Golden Age.

Lol

Well, I also don't like the 'turn by turn' thing either. most of my stuff was turning a mundane event into someting big. (discovery of coal, etc...)

I like having a world as a background. I let everything else take care of itself.

Well, ok then If you want to use my game for a story, just give the word. I can recall from memory many of the key events and city names. Some of the stuff I'd need the replay for (eek, the replay would probably take hours).

Ok, email sent. I did forget one minor detail:

The shattered remnant of India (Dehli, size 1) lies in the desert of the west/central Australian outback. So that makes a total of 5 AI cities down there, to my 7 (I think mine are better cities, though, as mine provide 2 iron and 2 coal... and I am willing to bet rubber too).
