A way to get new gamers famliliar without the rules!

A way to get new gamers familiar without the rules! Fisaco is hands down one of the best and easiest ways to get new gamers familiar with the concepts around roleplaying. When you are faced with a group of new gamers who have done minimal gaming, it's hard to get them used to the idea of roleplaying and the tropes of fantasy gaming at the same time as throwing all of the rules at them. The First Adventure takes the Fiasco model and turns it into a way to familiarize new players with gaming without burdenign them with the rules. Built to create the characters for a group and run them through their origin story as a party, The First Adventure dovetails into character creation or the next adventure.

Features

  • A "Hacked" version of Fiasco that modifies the tilt, act structure, and outcome to lead to group unity.
  • A broad fantasy setting that will make it easy for new players to attach concepts to D&D/fantasy gaming tropes and dovetail with your own setting.
  • Players choose Races and Classes based on basic options so they are ready to move into character creation.
  • Relationships, Needs, Locations, and Objects & Rivals help do collaborative setting building amongst the players to create a group unity.
  • Created by multiple ENnie award winning author John Arcadian (Gnome Stew, Engine Publishin, Cubicle 7) and Encoded Designs and based on actual play experiences!

The First Adventure is exatly what you need for teaching a group of players new to the game — or new to roleplaying all together — how to roleplay and get invested in gaming fantasy tropes!

It is a Fiasco Playset, so you should know what you are getting into. You need the Fiasco rules to play, obviously. You (the one introducing this to your fellow players) ideally should have played Fiasco multiple times to understand how the basic game [...]

There were two files. One was printed sideways, making it a headache inducer to read, so I gave up. The other may have been useful if you had the Fiasco rules set. Almost every thing needs to be explained by getting and reading that other main ruleset [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
