RPG A Day 2018: Day 16... Describe your plans for your next game

If we're talking about my next session, it's Saturday night on Roll*20 in my Cyberpunk 2020 campaign. I run modified versions of old modules and shoehorn them into a cohesive, yet sandboxy narrative based on how the players interact with the story...at least that's the idea. I started them off with the module--again, do we still call them that?--Thicker Than Blood which you can watch a funny review of here:

That's by Seth Skorkowsky @SSkorkowsky 

There are a lot of other fun reviews on his channel so give it a look.

They've more or less wrapped up the story which we began back in May...we're in mid-August now and only 5 days of game time has passed--we're playing weakly...er, weekly...so you can see I'm kind of on a slow build, but it seems to make sense. Anyhoo, the players still have a couple of loose ends if they want to explore them as well as many other seeds sewn that will lead to other pre-written modules depending on which direction they want to take.

This session will be all about repairing and rebuilding as they are attending a bazaar of legal and illegal sales taking place overnight in an aquarium in one of the more upscale areas of Night City. They also have rewards to collect from the owners of the La Hacienda Hotel and Casino who hired the party to bring the cultist, war criminal...and 80's prop comic...Gallagher to justice. That would be one of those things not in the original module by the way.

If we're talking about next system then it will be Mutant Crawl Classics. I plan to introduce this newly minted system funded by Kickstarter to my live table group that should be starting up some time next month or October at the latest. It sometimes takes us all a while to get back into the groove once school starts back...that happens in less than two weeks by the way. It's the double edged sword of RPG A Day, I enjoy writing, watching and reading he responses--it's like a mini-Christmas--but I hate that when it ends, the new school year starts.
