Brad the RPG Sage

Brad is an excellent GM. He creates a compelling world with a lot of things going on and then adds nice visuals of maps & buildings that support his vision. He was so well prepared that I don't recall throwing him off balance. Ah, you want to check out X's house? Have that right here... Brad is also remarkably patient. Not only was I pretty unfamiliar with the system in general, it turned out that my familiarity was with a different version of the rules, AND I started the game late, so there was already a lot going on; through all this Brad had an eager, helping hand. I felt okay being clueless even though I would have rather been up to speed. Brad helped me make a character, made sure I understood the rules, and reinforced that understanding when I forgot. Brad's world is full of action and intrigue. He had me hooked. Give him a chance to hook you, too. Highly Recommended.

Joe was incredibly patient and thorough explaining how to play Twilight: 2000. He knows Foundry really well and quickly solved several small issues that came up. I also enjoyed our terse one-shot scenario though one-shots always leave you wishing for more. I hope to play with Joe again.

Paul did a great job of creating the feeling of being in this world. He described the environment well, and his NPCs evoked a real sense of the social hierarchy that's key to this setting. I hope I'm able to play with him again. He was patient and helpful with the inevitable technological snafus. He also encouraged our own role-playing. Thank You.

Andrea is a superb GM who I highly recommend. He creates evocative settings, believable NPCs, and compelling stories. He weaves character backgrounds into his story and narrates dice rolls so they become part of the drama. He actively encourages good roleplay and player/character input into the story. He seems to be delighted when we surprise him. He also knows the rules well and how to use those rules to enrich the story - without being rule-bound: story and roleplay are still the focus that the rules support. Andrea also explains those rules well. When he runs a prewritten scenario, he makes it his own, and when he designs his own scenario, it's worthy of publication. I've been playing since the 70s, and Andrea is one of the finest GMs I have ever had the privilege of playing with.

Longshot avatar

Longshot

Longshot is a superb GM. His NPCs were each unique and believable with their own personalities, voices, and concerns. His descriptions of the setting made it concrete, believable, and compelling. Longshot also reacted well to our various ideas and shenanigans. There was a mystery to solve, and it was subtle but manageable. This was my first time playing Dragon Warriors, and the setting is based in historical Britain making it dark and convincing. Using magic can get you burned at the stake. Outsiders are viewed suspiciously.... I enjoyed the rules, which made me think of a OD&D version of 1st edition WFRP: grim and perilous with simpler rules and without the (to me) overpowered characters in 4e. I look forward to playing with Longshot again. Highly Recommended.
