🎲Sometimes you just gotta LARP it🎲

Running Spiral Keep at Arnecon.

Things just kept getting more and more verbally complicated in a room with a treasure chest.

I don't use minis when I run my games - it is all in your head.

I also had a lot of players. Maybe as many as 12?

That was when I opted to go live play and I put a chair on its side to represent the treasure chest and my players began to creep down the side of the room to examine it.

They lucked out and the poisoned darts all shot out into the room away from them.

I think they had a lot of fun with this improvisation that just happened in the moment without any planning.

He is wearing his signature woven hat.

Star Empire was first created around 1973. Many original players have described how fascinating the game was to us.

TSR refused publication despite it being a far superior product to Star Frontiers.

It would have been the follow up to the two previous games, Star Probe and Star Empire. The complete set is capable of handling space exploration, ship and empire building, and of course, individual role play.

Of course, TSR was never the best at business, putting personal grudges before profit. Thus they refused a lot of Twin Cities games after the schism in the company occurred.
