RPGs
"If life doesn't offer a game worth playing, then invent a new one."--Anthony J. D'Angelo, The College Blue Book
- Roleplaying Game Reviews - Short reviews of various RPGs (the pen-and-paper kind).
- Why Freeform? - A way to play RPGs without a system, and the associated dis/advantages.
- Thoughts on Running a Play-by-Email Campaign - Advice based on my PBEM attempts, both disastrous and successful.
- Sample Play-by-Email Guidelines - Culled from my experiences with The Black Wall, a fantasy campaign, Shazrad: City of Veils, a fantasy campaign, and other endeavors. You may find them useful if you're thinking of starting up your own PBEM campaign. (From the former, I note: For the love of heaven, don't make your PBEM website grey text on a black background. I was young and ignorant.)
- Languages in Roleplaying Games - How to use--or avoid using--languages in role-playing games. (A modified version of this article appeared in the SFFW Newsletter.)
