The Fate Archives: December 2013
http://thefatearchives.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Hopefully coherent ramblings on the Fate System, indie gaming, and our game design. Also, my thoughts on creating a game using the Fate system. Reviewing Fate Core is an interesting thing as I know the system very well. I have been a fan of this system since I ran across it in a small convention in NYC back in 2007. Then I was lucky enough to playtest the Dresden Files RPG. So, as I said, I am fairly versed in the system. You get what you want with no cost. If you succeed by 3 or more shifts you do it wi...

So, there is a lot going on in the next few months from my little spot on the internet. So, let’s get into it. So, Brianna and I are starting a new hangout called The Designosaurs. It will be every 3 weeks and it will focus on the trials, tribulations, and victories of game design. More on this soon. Subscrib...

Hopefully coherent ramblings on the Fate System, indie gaming, and our game design. Also, my thoughts on creating a game using the Fate system. My three Fate Core one shot ideas. So, I thought I would go into more detail about the three scenarios I am thinking about creating for Fate Core. These are just one shots to get the mind flowing on the system. 1 The good, the bad, and the Fate. Now, the town struggles to survive with less people to tend the crops, and the two largest families on the verge of a f...

Hopefully coherent ramblings on the Fate System, indie gaming, and our game design. Also, my thoughts on creating a game using the Fate system. My thoughts on the Fate Core preview scenarios. So, here are my thoughts on the first seven previews of things in the Fate Core Kickstarter. I am ranking them from least to most interesting to me. That doesn’t mean I did not like any of them, cuz I want to play all of them…but certain settings just call to me more. Burn Shift (post-apocalyptic world). What I did ...

Hopefully coherent ramblings on the Fate System, indie gaming, and our game design. Also, my thoughts on creating a game using the Fate system. So, yesterday was an interesting day at the gaming day. It lasted all day and was in Pittsburgh, and it proved so much just how important an efficient GM can be. The day started with Spirit of the Century. THe idea was to play the module called Hell comes to Hollywood, which is a tie-in to the book Dinocalpyse now by. You must defeat them at all costs! The rules ...

Hopefully coherent ramblings on the Fate System, indie gaming, and our game design. Also, my thoughts on creating a game using the Fate system. Fate Worlds Volume 2 Worlds in Shadows Review. So, this is my review of the second Fate Worlds book, Worlds in Shadow. Again it needs to be stated that I am listing them from my least to most favorite. They are all good settings and I would play any of them willingly. Crimeworld by John Rogers. Court Ship by J.R. Blackwell. That by itself is a bit insane. But it ...

Hopefully coherent ramblings on the Fate System, indie gaming, and our game design. Also, my thoughts on creating a game using the Fate system. Do I not know Fate as well as I thought? Wow, I really need to read more of Fate. Especially since the game we are making is using the system. This is what happens when you haven’t really gamed in a while and realize that you must play the game to really understand it. Time to get to work. Links to this post. Spirit of the century. So, I was lucky enough to get t...

Hopefully coherent ramblings on the Fate System, indie gaming, and our game design. Also, my thoughts on creating a game using the Fate system. Myself as a Fate character. :). So, I was sitting there at lunch today, roaming through Fate Accelerated and thought I should make myself as a character. Hell, I don't know. I was bored, sue me. :). It made more sense to use Fae rather than Fate Core. The approaches are more like real life and I don't really know how to use a gun. :). Fair 2 Careful, Sneaky.
