This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Forgers admit Thematics being a hobby on their own!

Not for quite a while, likely. I note that we're at an impasse: droog thinks the problem is that Sett & I are working from narrow experience. I agree with Sett that it looks the other way around from here.

Sett's use of "thematic" is risking confusion here when he says Ron played Thematic from the start. I think it's clearer to say that Ron doesn't get experiential play, and probably has little to no experience with wargames, based on the opening of his interview in Flames Rising. His Nar is strongly anti-experiential, but that doesn't mean his CoC and Babylon 5 games, which he's described as Sim, were experiential either (for him).
