Channelknight Fadran Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Lets face it. Setting up a tabletop RPG takes a long time. You need to write out a character, build a campaign, and get people interested. And, if you're playing with new people, you basically have to go through all that twice because you need to explain everything to them first, and then help them out with everything else. Not that I don't love RPG games. They're probably one of my favorite kinds of games in the world. However, it's just so much easier to throw a board on the table, deal out some cards, and get playing; not to mention that you only have to explain everything once before somebody gets it. So is anyone interested on making some Cosmere games? How does a Stormlight Archive board game sound? A Mistborn trading card game? We don't have to stick with the cosmere: we could try and make a battle-royal style Reckoners game, or an X-Wing style Skyward game. I think that the possiblities are endless. So, that being said, who's in? 2
Ironwill2112 he/him Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) I'm In! I don't know If i will be all that helpful though.(In making a game) But i am Definitely interested! Edited March 21, 2020 by The Hero of Masks
FantasyFanatic he/him Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Board games are one of my favorite family bonding experiences, so I'm in.
Experience he/him Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 Would the cards be from just one planet, or characters from all over the cosmere
Channelknight Fadran Posted March 22, 2020 Author Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) I am yet to determine any of this! However, I think going one world at a time would be good. How about a Stormlight Archive board game, first? I'm thinking we could make the board be the map of Roshar, and you are given a card that determines to what spren you're bonded to, as well as what Knight Radiant you are. The only question is: Where to we go from there?

AonEne he/him Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) I can’t promise to devote a ton of attention to this, but I’d definitely love to help out! Edit: The concept of a cosmere version of Monopoly has been lurking in the back of my head for a while, but a whole new game would definitely be cool. Edited March 22, 2020 by AonEne
Channelknight Fadran Posted March 22, 2020 Author Posted March 22, 2020 If anyone's legitimately interested in this then should I make a discord? When I was on the doc with someone it became a little difficult to communicate, so a discord could be pretty helpful.
Experience he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) That could work. I myself don't have access to discord, but everyone else could. Maybe Google Hangouts? Edited March 23, 2020 by EXPERIENCE
AonEne he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) I’m cool with Discord. I don’t get on Google Hangouts or Drive often, but I can do that too. Where was the difficulty on the doc? Edited March 23, 2020 by AonEne
Kidpen he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 I would like to help with this! I love board games, I've played a ton of them. This would be after the stormlight game, but an Alcatraz bluffing game comes to mind as a possibility. 1
Channelknight Fadran Posted March 23, 2020 Author Posted March 23, 2020 Alright then. Here's the link to the discord: https://discord.gg/HNFPTha Also @Kidpen I believe you double-posted.

Experience he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 6 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said: I can, if we need to. That would be nice.
Channelknight Fadran Posted March 23, 2020 Author Posted March 23, 2020 If we want a hangouts then I'd need some email addresses... Hence the reason why I was more partial to a discord.
AonEne he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) I’m willing to give mine, and people could always make a new email. *shrugs* There’s also just this thread, which any of us can use. Edited March 23, 2020 by AonEne
Channelknight Fadran Posted March 23, 2020 Author Posted March 23, 2020 Yeah. @EXPERIENCE we'll be sure to update you on our proceedings as often as we can. Or if you do want to make a hangouts feel free to add me: [email protected]
Experience he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 https://hangouts.google.com/group/GYPJLiRqtxcQicmu8 i made it for whoever wants to join.
FantasyFanatic he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 That would be super cool! You could make the Pits of Hathsin jail. 1

AonEne he/him Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 So are we considering doing this too? (PoH jail sounds great)
