Well, I kinda pitched this idea before, but I think people were put off by the fact that I wanted to use Runequest, so let's try again.
I haven't locked down the system yet, so feel free to make suggestions. The system to get the most votes will most likely be chosen. At the moment I'm considering Pathfinder. The first one to suggest D&D 4e will be shot. FATAL will be played for at least one session if the following conditions are met: 1) At least 4 people present me with complete characters ready to play and 2) Someone sends me enough alcohol that I can drink myself senseless(details for the delivery can be discussed privately). Other than that, the system should be suitable for running a medieval fantasy game with minimum adjustments.
The setting will be pretty generic medieval fantasy setting, details pending(and depend on the system, somewhat).
Starting area depends on what people want. Mention which you'd prefer in your post. The options:
1. An isolated village in the mountains. Severe limitations on races and classes*
2. A small port city in Mediterranean climate. Few limitations.
3. A large metropolis in the middle of agricultural nation. Some limitations.
4. A dwarven city. Severe limitations, but specific characters allowed if there's a plausible explanation as to why they'd be there.
*substitute profession or equivalent if the system doesn't have classes.
The campaign premise: Apocalypse is happening. Like, right now. It starts off pretty slowly, but as time goes on, survival should be high on your priority list, because it's going to be tough.
Scheduling: Post your available times and I'll try to work something out.
Technical stuff: The playing will most likely happen via IRC, but last time I checked you can use Mibbit or other webclient, so that should be non-issue as long as you have a browser with javascript. I'll also request a subforum so there can be stuff happening during downtime and I won't grow too bored if I happen to miss a session.
There's probably stuff I missed, feel free to ask stuff, I'm going to bed now.
