If you don’t mind postponing this, I’d love to be in this game[/quote]
No worries there will be plenty where this comes from in the future 
But I guess I can postpone it… Let’s see.
Thanks again for a fun game guys.
Sorry again for my lateness!
No, thank you!
Hey guys! As it turns out I won’t be able to join the game this week either 
Next week I’ll be there though (11, 12, whenever we’re playing)
See you then! 
Sorry to hear that…
See you!
By the by, last Thursday we decided that it was time for a change of pace and to shelve our knightly helms for a while…
So, I shall be DMing a one-shot of C.O.P.S, it is a French game (but I translated the character sheets) and, as the name might suggest, a police procedural…
I should be making a dramatic return this week. Or something like that.
See you on Thursday!
I’m in too!
C.O.P.S. is among the incredible selection of French games I think are absolutely worth a look. In that regard the German speaking community is really poorly equipped. Well, we have “Das Schwarze Auge”, Midgard and recently Malmsturm. 
DeGenesis looked promising, but was a mess… that’s about it, isn’t it? Ok, there are a few minor ones… but looking at the French market, there seems to be an abundance of beautiful games (at least from the artwork… my French ranging somewhere between bad and non-existent).
I’d be happy to have the occasional session in which you show us some French game. I’m thinking of e.g. Capharnaüm, Humanydyne, Les Milles Marches, Patient 13, B.I.A., Z Corps… shit there’s just too many. Simon, do you know/own any of these? If so, what do you think of showing us some of those games? In return I could introduce you to Germany’s infamous Das Schwarze Auge or run a short Malmsturm adventure for you.
I’m in as well!
I know some of them by name,but haven’t played any.
C.O.P.S is the only French game I own (actually, scratch that I bought a French role playingmagazine 15ish years ago that had their homebrew, but never got to play it…).
I will look into it. I can buy a game from time to time and try it. Anyone you are pprticularly eager to try?
But my dance list is a bit full already… Please remind me to discuss that Thursday…
Les Mille Marches would be on top of that list I think. 
But let’s discuss in further on Thursday!

I think you’re selling German games short…
DSA, for all its warts and humble beginnings, is a very unique game. It took me a while, too, but I’ve come to appreciate it over the years. No other game has stuck to its guns so consistently for so long, creating what just might be the deepest game world around. It has a stronger international reputation than one might think, and regularly tops “I wish they’d translate this into English” lists. It’s closer to the RPG pantheon than any other non-English game. (It’s also more narrative-oriented than just about any indie I’ve seen, but that’s a debate for a beer or three.*)
Ratten! is another one that has had people clamoring for a translation for years. Prometheus in general does good stuff. (Has there ever been a cleverer RPG title than 1W6 Freunde?)
(Ratten! might also be a fun one to play at some point.)
And then there’s Pegasus’s Cthulhu line, which probably makes German the most desirable non-English language among RPGers all by itself.
I’m intrigued by what I’ve seen from French games. (I’d be happy to run Esteren, for example, some time, if anybody’s interested, although it would of course be far cooler to have Simon run these games). But don’t overlook German games, either. A whole lot of gamers wish they knew German.
- These, incidentally, are the exact words of the incantation used to cast a Summon Auburney spell†.
† See third level mage lists.
Huh? Where am I? How did I get here? Did I just hear someone call DSA “narratively oriented”?? …Nah, that can’t be, I clearly must’ve misheard somehow…
Oh, Thursday game! Sounds shiny, count me in 
It worked! It worked!
Now stand back while I cast this fireball …
Haha, that summoning works every time 
you both made my day!!
back to off-topic:
Don’t get me wrong, Harald, DSA is a great game and a phenomenon in itself. That’s my RPG home, not D&D. I grew up playing on Aventurien for years before I learned that there were other games out there. And while I developed some issues with the system and the somewhat restrictive because detailed world (yeah, it’s a German game…), I still give it lots of credit for what it has done and still does for the German community.
But we lack the variety of high quality games. Admittedly, I didn’t follow Ratten! because in general all hey-guess-what-you-re-animals games don’t get me whatsoever. Right, and 1W6 Freunde is a fantastic name and Pegasus publishes incredible source material for CoC. But sheer numbers, artistic style and innovation… those are clearly French assets… Which is the same for comics
i’ll pass this week. hf you guys.
19:30, Spielbar as usual?
See you there.
That’s the plan, GJ-san!
So… 5 people?
That sounds about the right number…
Awesome, looking forward to seeing you tonight!
