Obviously, a referee can always adapt it to their tone and to their way of narrating an adventure. Personally, I'm neither in favour nor against them.賈尼https://www.blogger.com/profile/03207671300903490067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29847428.post-65586466486099115212017-11-03T20:21:10.877+01:002017-11-03T20:21:10.877+01:00Question: why are "text boxes meant to be rea...Question: why are "text boxes meant to be read aloud" to be avoided?

I ran two games and was lucky to get full sign-ups for both, lucked out on the Ian Cooper Heroquest session and ended up being invited to play my 1st ever game of Cthulhu Wars with Sandy Peterson giving advice for the first half hour or so. The mooching around downtime was fine by me in light of those experiences.Dimbydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03870183954464850585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29847428.post-11615591441460206702017-10-27T20:10:15.699+02:002017-10-27T20:10:15.699+02:00Thanks a lot for this report!
