They claim to make simple RPG products, but they lie! I think they use crack cocaine in the manufacture. Their products are addictive.

Arcadiagt5 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I am absolutely looking forward to this as a GM, but please put scales on every map. Especially in the COVID-19 environment when these maps will probably have to be used on Roll20 or similar. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly the Smoking ruins is a bunch of content. I've had weeks worth of play out of it so far and I havent touched half of it yet. I cant possibly comment on the next book as it's not out yet and I wrote some bits in it anyway so I'm biased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartQuintessence Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 My real problem is purchasing and no one to play with. I can't keep buying suppliment pdfs and not play them. Trying to educate people on Glorantha is fun but very hard.. Especially people who might not enjoy tabletop games. (my parents just don't understand) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently playing in 3 RQ games, all of which are online. 🙂 Skype, Discord, Zoom or if you must Roll20 etc. There are plenty of online options. In these modern times it's easier to run sessions online so travel and childcare isn't a thing. This was true for me even before the current events.

Even with all those options most people want to play not run and Glorantha is a niche community, so much so that you have to educate people before they can run and they don't nessacerily want to do that. I have had any luck finding a group. Lots of metaphorical radio silence. And I think the nicheness of my desire of play will limit me further.

allenowen Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I'm looking for a group too. I posted in the #lfg of the Chaosium discord. Maybe I'll try FB next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blindhamster Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Only recently "discovered" runequest. Absolutely love the core book slipcase set and impatiently awaiting my physical and pdf copies of the smoking ruins. This book also looks lovely! Very excited for more material to devour, I assume that the print for this will be a fair ways out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 5/6/2020 at 4:03 AM, GAZZA said: IKR? I use Foxit Reader which allows me to create my own bookmarks, For new products as standard, we hyperlink the Table of Contents, and Index. For the bookmarks, we normally include chapters, maps, tables and occasional subsections. For older products, these are being added where missing. Not everyone uses bookmarking for quick navigation, some just use page numbers they've memorised or the search function (or just scroll until they find it). If you require a deeper level of bookmarking, I would certainly encourage you to add your own. Personally I tend to add bookmarks where needed as I go along, with some PDFs having a odd selection of pages I regularly reference, other with detailed hierarchical ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
