anime is not good
i'm fascinated by lancer and backed it, but i've never run a game

one reason is that i'm in the stage of my life where it's very hard to have everyone carve out the time to play any rpg, the other is that i've always been a bit unsure how much buy-in i'll get on the premise

has anyone ever run it with apolitcal or non-leftist folks in the mix?

since I got Root on my brain (new expansion came in today), I'll write a little bit about the capitalist scum otters of the woodlands, coming from afar in anticipation of the upcoming conflict with one goal in mind - acquire wealth with which to dominate.


Basically pure evil

as someone who hasn't played the game, this is a great write-up and much appreciated

it all brings to mind the strain of libertarianism that focus on state coercion and the non-aggression principle, while steadfastly ignoring the underlying aggressive implications of denying essential goods and service to someone. someone who corners the market on bread and gouges is simply an agnostic part of the natural force that is "the market", those who would set price ceilings or nationalize the product are the "aggressor"

But then how did Gandalf get off of Orthanc?

it's not a fan theory i've heard before, but it seems easy to say that some orcs in the resistance movement smuggled him out
