Podcast appearances and mentions of grey ranks

Jason is the designer of Desperation: The Isabel, a haunting historical horror game of a doomed cod-fishing vessel on the Gulf of Alaska in 1888 (as well as Fiasco, Grey Ranks, and a tremendous number of other hugely influential games). We set sail on the Gulf to explore what happens to this doomed crew as a storm overwhelms them... and then Hell comes with it.DESPERATION: https://bullypulpitgames.com/products/desperationBLACK LIVES MATTER: https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/#ALL MY FANTASY CHILDREN: http://www.allmyfantasychildren.com/YAZEBA'S BED & BREAKFAST: https://redcircle.com/shows/yazebas-bed-and-breakfastPARTY OF ONE DISCORD: https://discordapp.com/invite/SxpQKmKSUPPORT JEFF ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/jeffstormerTHEME SONG: Mega Ran feat.

Paul & Dan chat with Jason Morningstar, creator of Fiasco, Desperation, and other great RPGs. Jason Morningstar is an American indie role-playing game designer, publishing mostly through Bully Pulpit Games. Morningstar's games often lack a Game Master and are often set in situations that quickly go unfortunately for the player characters. Grey Ranks (2007), for example, is about doomed child soldiers in the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, and Fiasco (2009) is about impulsive crooks pulling heists that are sure to go terribly wrong. With these two games, Morningstar became the only named person to have won the Diana Jones award twice as of 2013. Morningstar also works with academia and industry, consulting on using games for teaching and learning in education, with a focus on health sciences. Now, Jason's newest production provides "games of survival horror, often without the survival". Desperation is the engine that powers two unique and chilling experiences, built on the same dark tone and mechanics, that are truly pick-up-and-play experiences for you and your friends. The Desperation Engine is different because you don't decide what is said—you decide who says it. And in a small community, who says “I burned a house down with the family trapped inside” makes all the difference in the world. The cards for each game include an entire claustrophobic world of characters that form a web of relationships you will then apply agonizing pressure to and, in most cases, destroy.

This is part of a series of table-top RPGs about war, run for the Gauntlet. In Grey Ranks, you will assume the role of a young Polish partisan before, during, and after the disastrous 1944 Uprising against the Germans. Together with your friends, you'll create the story of a group of teens who fight to free their city, one of countless Grey Ranks “crews” that take up arms. Your characters – child soldiers – will have all the faults and enthusiasms of youth. Across sixty days of armed rebellion, they will grow up fast – or die. Grey Ranks is by Jason Morningstar and is available here https://bullypulpitgames.com/games/grey-ranks/
