The Ancients Go Long!

The Ancients Go Long!

The Ancients answer user questions on using LEGO for miniatures and terrain; how we use AI to help running games; How we prepare for game sessions; using abbreviated and full stats for NPCs; What do we do when PCs refuse to bite a hook; and what are the characteristics and habits we consider 'good' in players.

The Ancients Destroy the World, and Laugh!

The Ancients talk about times we have most regretted giving some power or other to a PC, and why; about Player Agency and Character Agency, why they are different, and why we care so much about one and not so much the other; about the biggest destruction a PC ever wrought in one of our games, and if they got away with it; about whether the Ancients have people they talk to about the design aspect of games; and Rob throws in a wild card at the end!

The Ancients Get Under the Dragons Thumb

The RPG Ancients find themselves again answering questions from a dragon whose name shall be held confidential but whose initials are Mia the Dragon. The ancients cull their eroding memory banks to hold up something to amuse or entice or entertain or even confuse the dragon so she... or he... or they... or whatever...  doesn't immolate them in cleansing fire!

The RPG Discover Belated Listener Questions!

The ancients discus cons, the two methods of playtest, keeping players involved, hooking player characters, and playing in Old Meyoss

The Ancients Practice in their Echo Chamber

The Ancients get together to find our who has the biggest echo! Also listener questions from Frank Filz, AsenRG, and Mia the Dragon. We talk about how we generate cultures, determining if an NPC is male or female, how do PCs seek out worthy problems, how to use RPGs for educational services, and whether or not we have ninjas in our games! Enjoy!
