Not just 7th Sea with elves and dwarves, but an fantastical take with reaving minotaurs, illithid submarines, cloud giant palaces, and a mysterious giant whirlpool threatening the integrity of the world, all the while tempered with a background of national intrigue and a Great Game afoot for the players to profit from, or get caught in the crossfire of.

Description: I want to run a Dungeon World one-shot sometime in June, but I've never GMed before and don't have a lot of TTRPG experience. I've got a couple interested people, but I want to round out the numbers a bit and get some support and advice. I'm looking for one or two players that are more versed in Dungeon World than I am to help keep the game interesting, fun, and on track.

This will likely be a live game run over Roll20. We don't have a set time or day yet, nor has anyone committed to the game yet - it's all still tentative, but if I can get enough people together, I think everyone will be more likely to throw their hats in.

Description: Come join in the very first English playtest for this game I translated. It's got the setting of Tokyo Jungle and a system that will remind some people of Darkest Dungeon. Lots of focus on resource management, risk/reward balance, slowly building up initially weak characters, and the feeling of barely holding on to your own survival. Play as youth living in a snowy city in northern Japan trying to survive a post-apocalypse full of overflowing nature and monsters. Try not to die.

Format: PBEM (we have a Discord server for out of character chatter, but gameplay occurs via a Google Group, with another Google Group used for OOC messages from the admin/GMs like rules tweaks.)
Players: We have 6 at present, with no real limit on how many newbies we can take at once (though it might be slower if, like, 5 or 6 people show up at once...)
Description: Pick a country on the map of the world (as of 9/2/17)! You play a head of government (President, PM, dictator, Caudillo, etc). We're looking for a few good leaders!

Other stuff to note: Countries taken are listed on the how to join page at this link. It's relatively authoritative, but we really do need 3 countries listed when you sign up. Makes it easier if your first choice was taken before we had a chance to update that page.

Otherwise, if you're looking for "countries we really suggest" if you have no clue: Currently, we could really use a UK, Germany, and one of either Japan or South Korea. France would be kind of neat too, but in a "second-tier, once the UK or Germany is filled" kind of way.

Game: WYZZARDS
System: homebrew/PBTA
Format: Discord/Roll20 (join now)
Players: 4 (NO WEIRDOS)
Description: Wizards have ruined the world. You are wizards. You go on adventures.

EDIT: Alright apparently it's unclear what the game is actually about, here's more details:

BASIC PREMISE OF THIS GAME: You are wizards, you go on adventures and work to defend your villages from HOSTILE FORCES. UFO crashed into Tower of Babel and spilled out its cargo which turned into edible jungle of alien creatures; those who eat of the jungle begin turning into aliens, it is gradually terraforming the planet. Invaders return to recover ship; mysterious builders of tower return to recapture it; you are caught in the middle! What will you do?!

SYSTEM: Fairly complicated but basic mechanic is roll 3d6+Modifier, 9 or less = fail, 10-13 = partial success, 14+ = full success. More details in channel

Need one or two more players to round this out, most recently a player's village was nuked by an alien mothership, another player's village is crumbling under the weight of occupying fairies, sky collapses and refugees from other villages, good fun so far.
