With Variable Dave running his DCC interlude campaign - next session this weekend - it's a weird feeling to not be the one prepping stuff. I had forgotten how much less there is to do to be ready for a game as a player once you have a character ready to go. I mean, I'm relishing the chance to just play, especially with some of my regular crew, but it is a change in perspective. I think it's good for a GM to get to play every once in a while to get a refresh on how that feels but it has been awhile since I've had the chance. Being a party of 1st level DCC characters I expect there to be some carnage but it will be fun regardless.
That said there's always some level or prepping going on - right now the plan is still to run Necessary Evil as my next campaign so I've been skimming back through the Savage Worlds rules and powers. Then I'll hit the Super Powers Guide and the NE book itself. There is a pile of RPG books on the to-be-read shelf but I'm trying not to get distracted beyond reading back through the DCC rules and the Savage Worlds stuff.

It is nice to have a steady group going - we always have a game running even if we skip a week or two here and there. Consistency is hugely important to keeping a group connected. Everyone knows that the default is "there's a game Saturday night" and exceptions will be discussed in advance. For me now it's nice to know I can hand things off to someone else and play and keep things going too.
Anyway, more to come next week.
