Episode 284: Traveling Mechanic, Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene

          In this episode Saul and Jolene talk about traveling mechanics.  Many RPGs have rules on how to deal with traveling in their games.   Some games have very detailed rules while some might not even cover traveling in their games.  Fifth Edition D&D have some rules but they seem more like guidelines than actual rules.  These ideas are covered in the Gamemasters Guild.
         Another fantasy rpg that has a bit more detailed rules is Dragonbane.   Exploring and searching are a big part of the Dragonbane and because of this the ruleset has specific rules on how it should be handled.   They even have charts which if you have listened to this podcast she loves charts(sarcasm)
         In another fantasy RPG, The One Ring traveling has very detailed and specific rules for traveling in the world of Middle-Earth.  This is where the Journey is just as important as the Destination.   Due to the world of Middle-Earth's  being touched by Evil, traveling is very dangerous.  Which is why the traveling mechanic of The One Ring is so detailed.
    Other games discussed are Shadowrun, Feng Shui, Liminal, Star Wars and Star Trek.
    Thank you all for Listening
