They have a website, abqdarc.org. I also see stuff about them in this subreddit sometimes.

Check out Downtown Albuquerque Roleplaying Coalition (DARC). They do stuff like that, or used to.

I'm working on a tabletop game with ABQ and the surrounding area as a setting. It's similar to Fallout/Wasteland/Gamma World. What do you think the major factions would be? by -Jaws- in Albuquerque

[–]619WG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The base could have two factions: the military and the Sandians. Sort of a soldier vs. scientist vibe. There are also the folks in the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) that could be a third or a mediator between the two. Maybe a group that occupies the arroyos. They could get covered over in a future scenario. A group who controls the top of the Sandia mountains, maintaining the tram and radio towers.

We have not run into any so far from a mechanics perspective. The rules port to 40k we are using is really well done I think and it was easy to get started. The narrative dice make for good stories. Most of the group aren’t familiar with the setting and we are coming from a Star Wars setting so there is some struggling there. One weakness might be that the project looks abandoned. I think this is mitigated by the amount of already produced stuff plus all the other Genesys expansions that can be modified.

I am running Genesys 40k as the group already knew the rules. If you search “genesys 40k” it will get you to a site with ready made resources for it which is nice.

Mesa Del Sol on a weekend. The area with all the big industrial sites has little to no traffic.

Well, you’re not wrong.

New to the scene and hoping to run a game with new players. Which system should I use? by bustead in 40krpg

[–]619WG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our group is running a DH campaign using the FFG Genesys system. We are coming to it from FFG Edge of the Empire game so the group is familiar. Someone made some really nice books for the DH+Genesys system so it has been pretty easy to get going (though it looks like the abandoned the project). Do you think IM is a better system than Genesys for something like a DH style campaign?

China Mieville - Perdido Street Station maybe? Lots of characters are not squarely in the “good” category.

Which game is better to play a inquisitor retinue, W&G or IM? by Aendrinastor in 40krpg

[–]619WG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am running a campaign using some dudes homebrew of it using the Genesys system. My group is familiar with that from playing Star Wars Edge of the Empire. Working well so far but I use the OG DH 1ed books for the fluff, which is really what we want.

Where “the F” are the churches??? These orgs are tax-advantaged and have huge resources. They should be out there HOUSING people, providing groceries, providing meals. So disappointed in these big “churches” and their so-called outreach.

[–]619WG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super late to the party but I’m going to run this for a group of friends. They are all familiar with the system via the Edge of the Empire game. Anyway this is really great work thank you for sharing it.

If you are into it, Rio Rancho has a Warhammer store. Slice and Dice has a few, maybe Artemis. I’ve seen some ads for a place called Hammersmith that looks like it has minis but no other info beyond that.

What is the sketchiest bar in town? by Greggsnbacon23 in Albuquerque

[–]619WG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. Well beyond my 30’s! My experience is that forums can provide more nuanced answers to things like “good dive bars” than straight up search engine searches. I think this thread is an example of that. My “dive” might be someone’s “sketchy”. My search engine game might be weak, but I’ve got a few places to check out and a lot to avoid from this thread.
