So... I've been obsessed with Dr. Doom for like... a hot minute.

I've been getting some GREAT juice in another game being able to play him... but thanks to a talk with a friend... I've got a new bug.

I'd like to set up a truly epic game. It will take more than one GM to play for certain... and fortunately, I have a track record of never disappearing. So, if I'm going to set this up, it is something that will be around for a good long while.

The story-line is simple. A multiversal cataclysm occurs, and the various gods, heroes, and brilliant minds of various worlds all have the same idea of how to survive it. They must encapsulate as much of the population as they can or are willing to save.

Unbeknownst to them, the only method that works, be it arcane or technological, results in the various discrete lands being pulled together into one gigantic world.... battle world.

Imagine a map of the world, where Doomstadt, Wakanda, Metropolis, Neverwinter, Gotham, Krynn, New York, Khorvaire, etc. all find themselves enmeshed in each other's worlds, having to care for their individual populations, and the surviving gods having to do what they can to care for their people.

What I would like is 3 tiers of play.

The GM's would each take on the roles of Gods or God-like heroes - I would play Doom because Damnit that's the whole point of this. But we'd need the Panther God Bast, Superman, Pelor, Thakhisis, etc. They would each be DM'ing their own region.

Tier 2, would be various mid-range ruler/heroes. So your Black Panther, Batman, Kingpin, Masked Lords of Waterdeep, Drizzt, Raistalin, etc. (To be honest, I see Doom as Tier 2 here).

And Tier 3 would be the Heroes to be, starting off as NPC classes and climbing as high as they can.

I'd like to put together a roundtable of GM's to help me build out this world because I think it would be hella fun. There could be a space for arena battles, but plenty of opportunity for role-playing as well. I figure I should start by seeing if there's any GM's that'd like to bite, and then we can go on building it from there.

When you say, Fantasy Edition 3.5 D20, what do you mean exactly?

I think he means Battle World Fantasy Edition, 3.5 D20

The thing is how do you expect everyone to meld with each other. Gotham next to Waterdeep, for example. A city has cars, the other is magic high. Or will you blend the technological and magical level of the different settings, along to their history?

In reply to BrisNoc (msg # 3):

So yes, at the very beginning I want Waterdeep and New York to pop up next to each other... But gas is going to run out, gun powder is going to be limited until they can find a supply, and all the nuclear power will be used up because of the dimensional transference.

So a gradual deterioration of some of the advanced technology, but still allowing for some gear from D20 modern, etc.

Bump!
