FatherTiempo Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 I've heard about the Mistborn Adventure Game but I haven't seen any good descriptions of it. Has anyone played it and if you have could you give a rough overview of how the game works? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Artemos Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 How familiar are you with other tabletop RPGs, like dungeons & dragons, pathfinder, and shadowrun? We can get you better advice if we know that specific detail. I've never played MAG myself but I've had my fair share of other tabletop games and it looks very interesting to me.

FatherTiempo Posted February 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 Not very, I have a vague idea of the table top RP with the game master behind the board calling out the next occurrence in the game and stuff. I suppose I would understand D&D references though I've never played it before. Is the Mistborn game with narrators and players like D&D? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Artemos Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 3 hours ago, FatherTiempo said: Is the Mistborn game with narrators and players like D&D? Yes. You need a group of players as well as a game master (GM). The GM either writes their own narrative or uses a pre-written story that presumable comes with the game you buy (which is probably a set of rulebooks and character sheets). The players then play through this narrative. Depending on the GM, this narrative may be very linear, and the players follow a story that the GM wants them to follow. Better GMs will learn to improvise and let the players make plot-bending decisions and write their own narrative, to a degree. The best GMs often write their own settings and stories, personally tailored for their players. For specifics, I found a preview of the rulebook from Crafty Game's website, so it should be legal. Page 47 shows what sorts of things a Coinshot could do in-game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifth of Daybreak Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Quite fortuitously, we just released the first episode of a Mistborn Adventure Game Podcast we're calling 'Lost Legends of Scadrial.' You can give us a listen to get a better feel for how the game works. We're on most of the large podcast providers and on YouTube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
