Open world survival exploration Knave 2e looking for players

Looking for 7 players for an open world exploration game using Knave 2e RPG.

The theme is fantasy with a bit of scifi.

The focus is in exploring biomes, gathering resources, crafting gear and building settlements in an attempt to survive the Primal Wilds. There is dungeon crawling and combat ofcourse but its not the main focus.

The gameplay loop is:

You check rumors and contracts from the main hub, or choose a cardinal direction to explore openly, then form a group from the pool of players (maximum of 10 players is my intent. Already have 3 ), drop down on the planet (via drop pods. The main hub is a floating settlement in orbit around the planet) explore, survive, extract by calling in pods to go back to main hub, share your discoveries for other players to better survive the wilds, craft survival gear to be able to explore the deeper wilds, repeat.

I welcome people who dont know the system. Its easy to learn.

I expect people who are on an active expedition to post at least once per day.

Those that stay in the main hub can be inactive for a month before i ping them just to check if they are still interested.

Dm me for an invite.

Looking for players. Survival open world exploration. Knave 2e

Hello all. I am running an open world survival game called The Nexus. I am using Knave 2e with a few homebrew rules.

I am looking for 4 to 5 players. Already have 3.

Game works like a west marches but not the discord version.

Just a pool of 10 players that form groups and explore the wilds.

The focus is on survival in the Wilds rather than dungeon crawling but there are dungeons.

I dont mind players new to Knave2e. Its an easy system with traditional 6 attributes from dnd.

As for the setting, you are an explorer who arrived on the primal planet via portal. Probably an accident or maybe not. But you cant go back. Upon surviving the first day, you will arrive at Nexus. A floating island that orbits around the planet. The Nexus is something made by an ancient civilisation. Noone knows exactly how it works.

The gameplay loop is you choose a contract and drop on the surface of the planet with pods. Explore in open world fashion or just b-line to your contract destination. Extract using a device that calls pods to pick you up.

The Nexus is looking for more explorers to find more information about this Primal world and the ancient civilisation that used to live here.

The game has scifi elements to it obviously. But the explorers dont have advanced gear until they upgrade Nexus by finding resources and alien blueprints.

I post at least once per day and i expect players to do the same when in a active expedition.

If you wish your character to stay at Nexus for a bit, then you wont be pressured for posting. But i do check once per month the inactive players to check if they are willing to be part of the game
