    Default Ahoy, mates!

    Hi folks,

    another fan and Kickstarter backer reporting in: I'm Ralf, fantasy-map maker, role-player and boardgame enthusiast, living in Siegen, Germany. I came to Sails of Glory through my budding interest in tabletop gaming (fueled by X-Wing) and love of Horatio Hornblower. My biggest challenge will be finding regular opponents in the area I live, as my usual gaming group will probably be hard to motivate beyond a few test games. But we'll see.

    Welcome aboard Ralf.

    Once we have the game in-hand, I am confident the folks on this forum will start generating solo rules and Skype games. We do these on the Aerodrome (Wings of Glory) to great success.

    What types of roleplaying games do you play?

    Was just at Origins, and looked at some map making software. I will find the brochure and send you the info.

    Probably not necessary, as I most likely work for that company. :D

    Playing all kinds of rpgs, from vanilla fantasy (using FUDGE or Savage Worlds rules) via Deadlands Reloaded (current campaign) to newer stuff like Mortal Coil, GUMSHOE or Hillfolk.

    Thanks everybody for the kind welcome!

    Thank you!

    Let's see about those Naval themes, I've done a little in the past.
