Welcome back after the holidays, University is starting to wake once again and we’re getting ready to start up SAGA for 2013.

We’ll have a stall at the Club days (21st and 22nd of February) as usual, so come along and say Hi and sign up for SAGA this year.

We’ll be having our first first meetings on the 26th and 28th of February. Come along to the the intro nights, from 6pm until 10 and meet the (nearly) all new committee, find out what RPGs may be starting up, play some board games.

We’ll also be having our Welcome Back day on the Saturday the 23rd of February, more details to follow!

Good evening, everyone! Due to logistical concerns (i.e. people want to have dinner later on in the day), we’ll be swapping Sessions 2 and 3 at nanoCon 2012. This means that the timetable will be:

Session 1: 9:30 – 12:30 Session 2: 13:30-17:30 Session 3: 19:00-22:00

Games running Session 3 previously, will be running in Session 2 now, and vice versa.

For more information, see our nanoCon main page.

See you Saturday!

We’re running online signup for round one of the convention to smooth over the general operation. Phase one of signup has closed, which means that we’re now in first-come, first-served mode. Sign up to secure your spot in round one today!

Hello all! SAGA Inc. is pleased to bring you nanoCon 2012, a one-day roleplaying convention. Boasting twelve different games over three sessions, we hope to fulfil your craving for RPGs of all stripes and colours.

All we require of you is a gold coin donation, which will go towards snacky food for our humble GMs to keep them sugared up. Run a game (or bring a non-SAGA friend) and you forgo even this!

Session 1 pre-registration is now open, so if you want to participate in one of our first-session games, now’s your chance to sign up! You can find out more information about nanoCon 2012 (and a link to the signup form) right over here. If you have any further questions or requests for information let me know.

  • The name of + a short blurb for your scenario
  • A short spiel on why it’s awesome and we should pick it

Applications will be closing at the end of the month, so you only have a few weeks left to apply.

Morning all! As you may know, SANCon is headed our way soon. SAGA is one of the main clubs involved in SANCon, and we will be running a number of roleplaying sessions throughout the weekend. We’re looking for GMs to run one-off games, so if you’d like to help out (or if you have a kick-ass scenario you want to wow people with), this is a good time to do it.

Criteria

We will be running games for people who haven’t done a bunch of roleplaying before, so nothing with incredibly complex rules or complex fraught narrative, but anything else is fair game. Also, since there will be a number of non-SAGA people there, this is your chance to re-run that thing you always run at SAGA and get new people to be a part of it.

This year’s theme is “post-apocalyptic”, so if you’re dealing with post-civilisation gaming (be that The Road, a zombie apocalypse, or even something weirder you’re most welcome to submit your game. We will be accepting non-post-apoc games as well, but if you want to keep with the theme, well, you know where to go.

If you need help gathering resources or preparing for your game, I’m willing to lend a hand. If you’re interested, send me an email.
