Wow! Experience a game that is at the roots of the roleplaying games! This game shares its 50th Anniversary with Gen Con! A fast & furious roleplaying game run by designer David Wesely!
Description:
This is your chance to experience a game that is at the roots of the roleplaying games: Braunstein! This game shares its 50th Anniversary with Gen Con! Indeed, 5 decades ago a remarkable thing happened when Dave Wesley refereed a game for his Napoleonic wargaming group, including Dave Arneson. As the players arrived they were each given a role to play within the German town of Braunstein: mayor, banker, student, Prussian army scout, etc. Soon each became immersed in a dynamic roleplaying experience with more than two sides, more than one objective, cooperative and competitive play, without any clear winner or conclusion. Considered a chaotic failure by Wesley, his players didn’t care – it was fun! Thus the seed of roleplaying games had been sown and would later be cultivated by Dave Arneson and Gary Gygax into the game we all know and love – D&D!
