Ensemble
has been getting a lot of playtesting, much of it very good. However, I think it's time for it to go through some rigors in groups that don't happen to have the luxury and privilege of their own personal Lxndr to guide the game. For those who haven't heard of the game, here's a brief description:
Quote
Ensemble
is a game for three or more people interested in breaking traditional 'GM' and 'player' duties along less traditional lines. Using a process it calls
blocking[/b], it determines what players will be in the Spotlight (playing their protagonist), which player will be the Source (framing the scene and pushing towards conflict), and what the other players might play, in a structured manner less predictable than simply 'around the table'.
I would love for some people to playtest the game without me, and also for people to read the rules and give me feedback even if they're unable to playtest. I know it's not a very pretty document; I'll be hiring a layout guy to make it look prettier when it gets to that point, but right now, it's still in the playtesting cycle, and while not very pretty, it's clean and legible.
