LOL, great question. While I helped write Top Secret: New World Order, if while running it at a con and I can't remember the exact mechanic for a situation I will make rulings on the fly. Though I am consistent with how I made the ruling for the rest of the event.

The question of how TTRPG game designers run the games they designed is running around the 'net right now. Do they run it RAW (rules as written) or do they change things up w/ new rules? Let's talk about this. 1/

Here's a hard truth. No game system can cover every possible situation that might come up during a session. And no system works perfectly for every table. 10/

"DGS Presents: The Virtual Con!" Just to gauge interest in a Dead Games Society virtual convention, how many people would be interested in a virtual convention featuring out-of-print games and game editions?

Did you miss Mike Pondsmith running @MatthewLillard, @MonsterFight31, @lukegygax, @realmsmithtv and @nouralogical through two sessions of Cyberpunk Red? Don't worry. You can catch all the action on @YouTube! Part 1: youtube.com/watch?v=ruIl56… Part 2: youtube.com/watch?v=wq-feV…

Hey True-believers, feel like hearing me ramble on and on over at a different show? Who wouldn't enjoy that?! Then check out the below link at 5:30pm Central 5/19 to hear me talk with my good buddy, Jon Johnson! About what? No Idea. wesufm.org/?fbclid=IwAR1Q…

Catching up on podcasts (still). Just listened to the @DGS_Midwest (Dead Games Society) Star Wars episode. It was a solid comparison of three different version of the Star Wars RPG over the years. dgsociety.net


Good times at Anime Central with my daughter, aka Maka Albarn of Soul Eater... :)

Thanks, we do sometimes blur the lines a bit :)

On another drive today, listened to @DGS_Midwest discussing various versions of Star Wars RPGs - WEG D6, d20, Saga, and FFG. Good listening - think a few of systems got blurred but useful overview. Control, Sense and Alter from what I recall - former helped hit/dmg, sense block



Love far-east fantasy and want to transform your AD&D campaign into a tale of heroic wuxia? Check out the new episode of the DGS podcast in which I guide you through the 1st edition Oriental Adventures book to unlock the secrets of TSR's martial arts. dgsociety.net/podcast/dgs-pa…
