Its kinda cringe but maybe the early anarchist movements/communes in the u.s pulled from here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism_in_the_United_States

Historian Wendy McElroy reports that American individualist anarchism received an important influence of three European thinkers.

William Godwin's anarchism which "exerted an ideological influence on some of this, but more so the socialism of Robert Owen and Charles Fourier.

After success of his British venture, Owen himself established a cooperative community within the United States at New Harmony, Indiana during 1825. One member of this commune was Josiah Warren, considered to be the first individualist anarchist.

The Peaceful Revolutionist, the four-page weekly paper Warren edited during 1833, was the first anarchist periodical published, an enterprise for which he built his own printing press, cast his own type and made his own printing plates.

After New Harmony failed, Warren shifted his ideological loyalties from socialism to anarchism which anarchist Peter Sabatini described as "no great leap, given that Owen's socialism had been predicated on Godwin's anarchism".

The emergence and growth of anarchism in the United States in the 1820s and 1830s has a close parallel in the simultaneous emergence and growth of abolitionism as no one needed anarchy more than a slave

Josiah Warren put his theories to the test by establishing an experimental "labor for labor store" called the Cincinnati Time Store, where trade was facilitated by notes backed by a promise to perform labor. The store proved successful and operated for three years after which it was closed so that Warren could pursue establishing colonies based on mutualism. These included Utopia and Modern Times.

Henry David Thoreau was an important early influence in individualist anarchist thought in the United States and Europe. Thoreau was an American author, poet, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, historian, philosopher and leading transcendentalist. Civil Disobedience is an essay by Thoreau that was first published in 1849.

Thanks! I am a big fan of lancer but this so far has been the best horror/investigation system ive done

[–] OpheliaAzure@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

for what it's worth i have seen some online groups get organized on reddit-logo in spanish, french, italian, portuguese but I love playing tabletop rpgs

the opportunity to tell a story together with a group of friends or have satisfying tactical choices depending on what type of game you choose to play. for this we have had some truly creepy investigations and even a decent jump scare! so its like getting to experience a movie/t.v show from the perspective of one of the characters

Thanks! I've really been enjoying handling it and between this campaign and the one-shots I did last year I'm close to either playing or handling all the modules. Haven't done God's Teeth or Iconoclasts but the campaign is a heavily modified Impossible Landscapes run through

 

Hi!

I've been running table top role playing games for hexbear users for over a year now and I'm looking for one or two people to join a weekly delta green game.

We will be playing on Thursdays, using roll20 as a virtual table top and a small private discord server for voice. We usually play for about three hours and I'd like to start around 20:00 or 21:00 CET 02:00 -0:300 EST.

Delta Green is a modern supernatural investigation game steeped in government alphabet agency conspiracy with strong horror themes. So far the surviving agents have investigated a supernatural serial killer, an apartment that consumes people, and a corrupt chemical plant that was producing a reanimation compound.

The two surviving agents are a computer programmer and a fiction writer. If you are interested or have questions please comment or message me!

We are playing through a heavily modified version of the Impossible Landscapes campaign, if you are interested / play with us please avoid spoilers!!!

It is, we have chosen Delta Green and Thursdays already though

[–] OpheliaAzure@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You don't need any experience, I've taught the hobby to loads of people over the years.

[–] OpheliaAzure@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago

Thank you! Anyone that wants to commit can DM me on hexbear

[–] OpheliaAzure@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago

That works with me and about 3 hours so ending around 22:00

[–] OpheliaAzure@hexbear.net 3 points 5 months ago (4 children)

Awesome, sounds like maybe starting around 20:00 CET would be best for you then?

I'm running Lancer on sundays so I would prefer something different, I know nothing about MLP so am not interested in Ponyfinder. I am interested in Monster of the Week and have BITD on the post list.

I have used roll20 for a few years so I'm pretty comfortable with that but if everyone else wants to use foundry I have used it a few times.

If you and REgon are up for it we just need to find one other person aubrey-happy
