Introduction

I'm a long time gamer with an interest in exploring people's preferred systems, storyworlds, and gaming techniques.

How long have you been gaming?

20+ years

How many players do you prefer in your group?

3 - 5

What balance do you like to see in your game towards RP and Combat? 50-50? 70-30?

80 20

What is your favorite class in any system? Why?

Classes?! When playing class based systems, I lean towards non-magical characters that live by their wits. So... usually thieves.

Tell everyone about YOUR current (or ideal) game.

I'm currently testing the latest iteration of my own homebrew system which is very focused on participatory storytelling.

    HoneyComb Engine Rough Draft

    "No apologies needed! Particularly when you did such a good job of explaining what I mean.;-}) And you're right about the status quo, although there seems to be a niche audience very hungry for a system like this...."

    HoneyComb Engine Rough Draft

    "Jim, there's no PDF of the handbook for general distribution at this point. We will be selling a PDF once the handbook is finalized. Michelle, there's a LifeWheel character sheet PDF on the Downloads page towards the end of the handbook."
