Reading Assignments
- Game 0 (world and Character Burning):
- Pages 1-128, which cover an introduction to the game, world burning, and character burning. Thats a lot of reading, but concentrate on pp 1-21, and skim the rest.
- Pages 610 - 625 which cover how the game is played.
- If you are feeling frisky, pp 284-310 would be useful, but can wait until next week
- Game 1:
- Wheel Meets Fire: pp 284-310
- Advancing Abilities: pp 311-323
- Beliefs, Instincts, and Traits: pp. 312-332
- Artha: pp 334-343
- Relationships and Circles: pp 344 - 356
- Resources: pp. 357- 372
- Technology Burner: pp. 373 - 398
- Vaylen Infection: pp. 400-440
- We will likely have to learn the big conflict mechanics (Duel of Wits and Firefight!) at the table next game, but you can read about them if you want. You might want to at least go over pp 442-446 and 463-478 for the basics.
