Atreus's RPG Works

Choice Cuts is going to be a new periodical feature that catalogs posts/podcast episodes that I find useful to me. It’s also a way for me to occasionally cheap out on post. They may be old, they may be new, but I hope they help you.

Adventure Planning:

• Dave the Game’s 5×5 Method – A very interesting way to build out a campaign.
• ChattyDM’s 5×5 Sandbox – Based on Dave’s post above, Chatty takes it and restructures it to a single adventure.

Creating Depth in Roleplaying:

• Anatomy of 20 Questions – A dissection of one of the more interesting methods for fleshing out characters pre-game.
• Deep as a Puddle: Question Everything – Another Gnome Stew article about questions, but this one focuses on questions during the campaign (if outside of normal play).

Actual Play/Recap:

• Kingdom: The Next Generation – From the guys at the PodgeCast, a recap series on their Burning Wheel game. Hilarious at points, but also shows how a sandbox-style game could potentially be run.
