The game is live on kickstarter, awaiting your support to manifest itself in the most glorious and fitting form: a book, custom dice, and a true dragon’s hoard of art in the form of eidolon card folios! Look at this glorious eidolon map art from @queerwizard.co.uk !

I see a lot of pushback against ‘the GM is a special player who has a different role than the other players’ being framed in anti-authoritarian or anti-colonial language and while there are discussions to be had around those ideas I think the reason we enjoy trad games is for the style of play!

…authority to the players it lessens the burden yes but it also creates a completely different, more writers-room vibe and that is not a *better* way of doing things it’s just a different way of doing things.

There’s also something to be said for the types of games this division of labour creates. I personally do not like playing games where players have narrative authority outside of what their characters do. I like believing in the secondary world, and reacting to it. When the GM cedes some narrative…

Absolutely this. It’s always always important to remember they’re just loser dorks playing dress up using old football gear.

It is true what the song says about folks who are ten degrees to the left of centre in good times who swing over to the right the moment something affects them personally…
