310 Building Sandboxes

from Roleplay Rescue

Today’s episode builds on my earlier discussions about building a dungeon adventure and generally about getting started as a GM. To keep things simple, I’m going to assume we are building a fantasy roleplaying experience - largely because that’s the most popular genre out there. Along the way, I hope to begin to touch on how building a sandbox goes a long way towards pulling together all the theory on game structures and how to make life easy as a GM long-term.Useful Links:Alexander Macris, “Arbiter of Worlds”: amazon.co.uk/Arbiter-Worlds-Gamemasters-Alexander-MacrisThe Angry GM, "Game Angry": theangrygm.com/gameangryD&D 1983 Expert Set: drivethrurpg.com/product/116581/Dungeons--Dragons-Expert-Set-Rulebook-BECMI-ed-BasicOld-School Essentials by Necrotic Gnome: necroticgnome.com/collections/old-school-essentialsTim Shorts of Gothridge Manor: gothridgemanor.com Show Contact Details:Voice Message Me: anchor.fm/rpgrescue/messageEmail Me: [email protected] Page: mewe.com/page/5c077833bce33a3fe7dd7f04 (or search "Roleplay Rescue")Facebook Page: facebook.com/roleplayrescue/ (or search "Roleplay Rescue")Patreon: patreon.com/rpgrescueRoleplay Rescue Quicklink: rpgrescue.com Hosted on Acast.
