No Room For A Wallflower: The First And Still Most Unforgettable LANCER Campaign

About the adventure

Everyone deserves the chance to have a mech! Every person should be able to save the day in a giant robot they designed, kicking ass and taking names. This is where the excellent LANCER comes in. You will finally have the chance to live your dream of whupping ass in space while exploring the origins of where this wonderful future comes from. This is the epic campaign, No Room For A Wallflower! As the campaign is explained on their website: "Hercynia is where it all began - the proving ground and birthplace of the mech, the spark that ignited the revolution that overturned the galactic order. It was here that humankind encountered alien life and exterminated it for good. "With its history now long forgotten, the planet has seen a new focus as a colony project. Development on the emerald planet has been quiet and orderly so far, but when the characters receive a call for aid from the brand new colony, they may be getting more than they bargained for." I cannot wait to send you into space and let the stars race through your mechanical fingers! As one of the premier GM's here, this is what some have said about playing LANCER with me before: +" He does a good job assuaging my new-player worries by openly explaining the mechanics of the game and freely offering advice and insight throughout. He’s always left me excited for the next session." +"But the one thing that makes me keep on coming back to his games is his attentiveness to the player characters he always takes the time to make sure that everyone is participating in his games and he's able to do this no matter how large or small the group is."

Additional Details

How to prepare

We will be playing predominantly over Discord so a functional internet connect, headphones/microphone set up, and a computer is highly recommended. LANCER does have a character management tool that can be done through the browser or over the phone - whichever you choose to use, you should have ready while we play.

What I provide

I will bring a rich love of the game and genre, a history of helping new players finding their footing in systems heretofore unexplored, and a deep understanding of this unique campaign.

Gameplay details

This is a high octane mech adventure. To make sure we maximize the nitrous-fueled enjoyment, safety is still key. As such we will do a full Session Zero that will include filling out the Monte Cook RPG Consent Checklist. During play, we will use a variant off the X, N, and O Cards called Red/Yellow Cards as well as an Open Door Policy. We will also use regularly scheduled Breaks.

How will character creation work

Character creation will happen as part of Session Zero. I would recommend planning a few character ideas before hand. However, we will be creating them as a group in that Session Zero.

Players can expect

• Find a game to join solo or search for a professional game master for you and your friends/coworkers/family.
• Book your session and wait for the Game Master to approve you.
• If you don't have a blast with your first game, your next game is on us.
