RPG Subsystems

from The Retro Arcana Podcast Hosted by Retro Arcana Games

In this episode of the Retro Arcana Podcast, Bobby and Jeff talk about some of their favorite subsystems within roleplaying games. We define subsystems as the limited use rules that are separate from the core rules of a game that we feel help either drive a genre home or abstract concepts that the core rules cannot elegantly handle. Intro: 0:00 - 1:54 Shadowdark Carousing System: 1:55 - 7:06 Savage Worlds Mass Battle System: 7:07 - 14:32 Shadowrun Cyberdeck Construction Rules: 14:33 - 27:48 Pendragon Winter Phase: 27:49 - 34:32 Outro: 34:33 - 35:27
