Manu<p>The Root TTRPG lacks two things that are part of a vagabond's life: exploring ruins, and battles. Last session, I had a lot of fun DMing a ruin exploration (see <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@Yakkafo/112028378998868772" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mastodon.gamedev.place/@Yakkaf</span><span class="invisible">o/112028378998868772</span></a>). For this session, it was time to play a battle. But how to avoid complicated wargame systems and stay true to PtbA's philosophy, while giving the impression of grand strategy? <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/PbtA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PbtA</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/RootRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RootRPG</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPG</span></a> 1/3</p>

Heather 💾<p>Just ran <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/RootRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RootRPG</span></a> in person for the first time.

Misty Mountain Legends<p>Learning how to run different systems other than Dungeons and Dragons has made me realize that DnD is not ideal for actual plays. Systems like Kids on Bikes, ROOT, and Paranoia are much more ideal to telling stories in front of an audience… <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dnd</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ttrpgs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpgs</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/KidsOnBikes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KidsOnBikes</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/rootRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rootRPG</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Paranoiarpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Paranoiarpg</span></a></p>
OriginalBarbas<p>Today in my weekly <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/rootrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rootrpg</span></a> game, instead of going directly to the ruins I prepared for my players so they could convince a hermit master smith to replicate an intrincate Dragon Cult relic, my players chose to go to the clearing next to the ruins and have fun in the Underground Wrestling league. There, some of them tried a dish called The Volcano, another won the singles and doubles belt and another stole riches and... plot points.</p>
