Both Joann and I are active advocates of gaming. We want you, our audience, playing games. We want you running games. We want to help you to do both better. This is the perfect time of year to discuss this, particularly the part about running games. We know there are many of you who haven’t done so because you’re nervous and don’t know how. We get it. We were there once too. However, if you’re interested in trying out running a game, here are some good resources to get you started…
Monte Cook Games runs the New Gamemaster Month series every year in January, but it’s not just them. They cooperate with other companies to give other examples. This year, in addition to promoting Numenera (Numenera: Discovery and Numenera: Destiny), their own game, they have partnered with the following companies:
- Atlas Games: Unknown Armies 3rd Edition
- Pelgrane Press: Trail of Cthulhu (with its free New Gamemaster Month Adventure, Midnight Sub Rosa)
- Chaosium, Inc: Runequest Starter Set
- Evil Hat Productions, LLC: Monster of the Week
- Arc Dream Publishing: Delta Green (This one is Pay What you Want – you can get it for free, and if you like it, go back and pay what you think is fair for the fun that you had and consider their larger product line)
If you’re looking for additional resources, or places to ask questions, New Gamemaster Month has both a Facebook Group and a Discord Server. In addition, you can always ask for help in our MeWe Group, our Facebook Group, my Twitter or Joann’s Twitter, or our Discord Server. You can also hop on over to our Twitch Channel on Sundays at 8:30 PM Eastern time and ask TTRPG questions that we will answer live, on the spot. Happy gaming!
