What is Role Playing? A bad example.
Working on a new project this morning called . . . 2D6REACT A SIMPLE FREE KRIEGSPIEL REVOLUTION ADVENTURE GAME By Lee Reynoldson This is a snippet of play example. Gods help us. [[BAD EXAMPLE]] WHAT IS ROLEPLAYING ANYWAY? So let's imagine that both the referee and players are Tolkien fans. The three players, Colin, Lucy, and Nicky, are playing: A Ranger called Arrogant, An Elf called Legless, and a Dwarf called Grimly, and they have come to a crossroads in the game after an attack by Snorks that left the dodgy NPC Human Fighter Borrowmore looking like a porcupine, and the other pain in the arse NPCs, four Snobbitts, missing. The Referee (that’s me, it’s always me) says something like - Me: You come back to camp to find Borrowmore slain. He is peppered with black shafts and surrounded by an absolute shitload of dead Snorks. Lucy: Black shafts, lol. Me: Don’t say lol out loud, it’s dumb. Lucy: lol. Colin: Well, I’m glad Borrowmore is dead. What an arsehole. Can I have his sword sin...
