“Meta” Gaming in Savage Worlds

David Garrett discusses his idea for a competitive Savage Worlds tournament game. You can download the draft of his Savage Worlds League here.

Don’t miss Runeslinger’s excellent essay on “Premature Imagination” and how this form of meta-gaming can unintentionally hamper your enjoyment of RPGS.

All of our hosts talk about ways to incorporate meta-level considerations in to your RPG campaigns and one-shots using media properties like Westworld, The Matrix, Ready Player One, AVATAR, Inception, and Assassin’s Creed as inspiration.

About Christopher SavageBull Landauer

Christopher SavageBull Landauer talks fast and loud, writes long and densely, and plays his characters with abandon. When not at a gaming table, you'll find him in his Jeep with his Border Collies or cursing at the TV offering his alma mater's football team free but rarely taken advice. He is most proud of never having been convicted of a felony.
