So Barra is this world. Well its not just another fantasy planet, its THE planet, the prime originator in my gaming universe. Whatever happens in Barra will eventually echo out in some form to other fantasy games.

So Barra is this world.  Well its not just another fantasy planet, its THE planet, the prime originator in my gaming universe.  Whatever happens in Barra will eventually echo out in some form to other fantasy games.
Barra (starting out as Skagin) has been around for 26 years (since 88) and in that time the players have diversified and explored many places on the planet - from Mu in the far east to Werris in the northern hemisphere and over to Vallar in the west.  Each story was self contained yet having an impact on the planet as a whole.    Barra has existed in its universe for..well for a while. (Funny thing - you ask people about its past and they seem to get a little vague as to what happened before around 2 and a half thousand years ago.  Its all ancient history anyway - no need to be too concerned about it aye? ;) )

TRAVELLER:MINERS 1.4 Home, home on the range - can get hot out there !

Tavern Tales 2.10 The end...?

And so the valiant characters find a way to end the menace but at a hefty price, 7 go in, 4 come out

And so we leave this story for a time, the next set was to do with the characters moving wider afield and heading north..watch out for   NEW HORIZONS

TRAVELLER STARDUST 2.13: we're when now???

And so the intrepid crew find themselves again at the mercy of the universe and they turn lemons into lemonade!

P.s. we welcome Erick aboard playing Victor.

ELDERLOR 1.6 Take II - An escape...

Hi there, well we got enough people to get together to complete the escape from the sinking castle.  Alas poor Leo sacrificed himself so that the others could reach safety...

The Devils in the detail...TRAVELLER:MINERS 1.3

Another great session, the group manage to overcome a blight problem threatening their food source, continue to build the infrastructure of the mining colony ( at the moment nicknamed 'Guidoville'), have several mishaps, find out something about the planet's geology, get some good results for the mineral resources for mining and the 'scintillating rock' comes up in a strange way.  Also Guido starts broadcasting Guido Radio- the rest are concerned he may be suffering cabin fever. Next installment around September, enjoy.....

Time, time, time

Okay and for MENSIS SEEKING #8 - what has been your favorite system to play in and what could have made it better?
