I thought the interview with you was very interesting. As a teacher I got very interested when you were talking about how easy it is to make a roll and write with historical theme for the classroom. Can you point me to some assets where I can start?
Thanks for the comment, Edmund! I’d start with the blog I wrote a while back analyzing the core structure of Roll through the Ages and how that could be applied to other Roll and Writes about history: https://gamingthepast.net/2021/11/05/making-a-roll-and-write-for-history-class-using-roll-through-the-ages-as-a-guide/ From there I think the biggest thing is to try to play/study some and see what the possibilities are. Since most are solo and printNplay, it’s pretty easy to do so if you’re like me and don’t have 3 or 4 free friends for gaming on call.
Check out my Path of Honors and De Agricultura Roll and Writes as examples I’ve used in classes. https://gamingthepast.net/tabletop/jeremiahs-prototypes/
And by all means, consider dropping me an email (jmc.hst@gmail.com) or a BSky dm (@gamingthepast.bsky.social) if I can help you with more focused conversation. Always glad to talk shop! Good luck!
