Cult of Chaos seeking GMs for Free RPG Day!

Posted by Michael O'Brien on 21st May 2017

It has been officially announced. Chaosium is bringing RuneQuest back with a new edition of the rules, set in the world of Glorantha. While the official release of the game is still some time off, the first release is the Quickstart Rule book as part of Free RPG Day, this June 17. 

We are a Gold-level supporter, which means 10 copies will be sent to each of the participating stores. In support of this, we are seeking Gamemasters to run "The Broken Tower", the new adventure that comes as part of the RuneQuest Quickstart

We'd like you to pair up with a participating Friendly Local Game Store, or if there isn't one near you, any FLGS that's willing to let you run a game that weekend. 

You need to run at least one table of the adventure (runs 4-5 hours). 

In return, we'll grant you access to a PDF of the rules and adventure in the week before Free RPG Day, which you need to study and absorb in order to run a great game at the game store. 

Familiarity with any previous version of RuneQuest or BRP-based system would be helpful, but our 48 page booklet has everything you need to GM the session, including 5 pregen characters.

Note: rules for Free RPG Day prohibit playing the game before that date, Saturday June 17th 2018.

Here's What To Do If You Want To Take Part!

  • Find a retailer, preferably a participating FLGS, but you can play the game at any game store or similar venue.
  • Contact them about running this adventure that weekend (June 17-18).
  • Email Todd Gardiner, Chaosium's Director of Organized Play with the store details. While your at it, if you haven't done so already join the Cult of Chaos, our organized play and GM program (it's free).
  • Todd will contact the store to confirm your table reservation and then add you to our GM team!
  • The week before Free RPG Day you'll get sent the RuneQuest Quickstart PDF
