When I'm not running games I'm...
When I’m not running games I’m probably elbow-deep in a new 3D printing project, tweaking designs, and turning random “what if?” ideas into something real (and hopefully printable) by the end of the night. It usually works out?
How Ben runs games
I like to use a mixture of maps, minis/tokens, handouts, and narration to produce the most immersive game for the players. My goal is to allow you to truly be your character in the given setting for a few hours and to feel the weight of your choices and consequences, good and bad. I love seeing players risk it all "for the sagas" and take heroic risks, risk long shots, and find unlikely ways to overcome the enemies, but I'm also happy to see a group carefully plan and then execute brilliant tactics to prevail.
