Adept Play
A medieval Europe fantasy game by Jonathan Tweet and Mark Rein-Hagen, first published by their company Lion Rampant in 1987.
About how we play (at all), about players and characters, about conceptual rules, about small-scale procedural rules … It’s a full-spectrum session this time. At one point I wonder which version of Ars Magica I’m talking about, which turns out to be the second edition (1989).
This set of questions spans a wide range: some Forge and Story Games history, using traits or rules involving “Destiny” without railroading toward a specific thing, and plenty of resolution-type topics regarding how characters fight. Here’s the file summarizing our discussion at the Patreon. As always, I’m hoping for continuance and more development here.
