From the Archives
Another anniversary post from the first year of Cannibal Halfling. I’ll admit, my experiences on this particular topic have broadened, especially considering the kinds of games I’ve been able to play in the last eight years. Still, a decent primer on the topic. From the archives this week we have Level One Wonk: Backstories.
Discussion of the Week
I wish I had switched to shorter campaigns sooner: Ironically our group has been going a bit the opposite way, with our campaigns getting longer. Still, there’s something to be said about sticking to a self-contained plot for a shorter multi-session game, especially if you’re in the position of having a ton of games you want to try.
