    Discussion: Actual Plays

    Concept: LANCER rpg in Nu Avalon with guests with real life knowledge on how to solve issues (Socialologists, philosophers, Engineers etc.)

    Advice:
    1. Find a Niche - An interesting RPG, or interesting format.
    2. Accessibility - Brining the game in a way the audience can digest well. (Mentioned: Wing Women, Dungeons and Daddies)

    Issues to be aware going forwards;

    Issue 1: New system - not well known.

    Issue 2: Scheduling conflicts.
    Pre-record: Missing some live elements and energy.
    Live: Can have issues with technical issues/ scheduling.

    Issue 3: Chemistry and performance - A Stream can live and die on the energy between the cast.

    Issue 4: Attendance - Real life still happens and can mean people have to drop out.

    Issue 5: Support - Tech, Planning, Art, Community, social media, and much more. All of these are important to consider as these as important if not more than the game running and writing.

    Issue 6: Funds - Are you going to ask for money/sponsorship/community funds, or will this be out of pocket.

    Issue 7: Platform - Twitch, YouTube, and Kik all exists and each have different rules, ad share, and function.

    There will be a Part 2.

    Tone and Style
    Remember: Lancer believes in a future where a better world is possible, has been achieved, and is expanding. While we can’t look over your shoulder or edit your texts for you, we do encourage you to write in our house style: earnest, smart, aware of power and the dynamics between the oppressed and their oppressors, and with an aim towards clarity. Lancer is soft science fantasy that wears hard science fiction’s suits — write big, but keep people in mind.

    Lancer thinks things can and should be better, and isn’t afraid to write stories exploring what that looks like. Cruel and evil events can happen, but they shouldn’t be celebrated — they should be stopped. You’re playing lancers— the cavalry. Write settings and situations that call for some big damn heroes to get in there and help the right people; even if they don’t save the galaxy, liberating the city is good work enough.”
