Online? There are a few different venues for shopping around for online RPG groups. I have had success just using google hangouts and just playing that way since I have a mix of in person and online players. No real setup, it is free and as long as they have a gmail and a webcam, it works very well. It does require more narrative than in traditional table top since you have to really describe things very well, but it has worked for me and my wife and our group of 7 for over 5 years. There are other formats such as Roll20, but I have never used them so I cannot comment on them.

You might have some difficulty finding players since it is a fairly niche game, in a niche genre, from a polarizing publisher, but I wish you the best of luck.

Welcome back to the (virtual) table :)

Thanks. Hopefully, I can find a group to get going. I have a webcam, skyle and a gmail account. I have two former coworkers that I may try to serve as a MD for, but only after I get some action.

I know this is late but I haven't been online in a while. Welcome to the World of RECON :)

Another place to play is roll20.net which has free or paid services.

I can do text-based games. Language issues prevent me from doing voice.
