harrowing in the north

Depends what GMs decide to run, but you can see my feedback from last year’s event above as an example of the sort of roleplay games running. There were also free minis available and other discounts from sponsors which is a bonus!
There were other roleplay games using other dark fantasy rule sets. @twisted moon what rules did you play?
I hadn’t roleplayed in decades, but the GMs were great and didn’t rely on players knowing the minutiae of the rules. It’s more about getting into the role and having fun.

i ran wfrp 1st ed.
i certainly don't expect players to have any prior knowledge in my games.

Sounds intriguing for sure! Do they tend to be mini-led games, or more theatre of the mind?

usually (and mine will be) the latter.
padre was considering taking miniatures last year, though. he couldn't make it in the end.

Have to say I prefer that way of playing RPGs. Just the occasional use of maps/tokens to help visualise specific events.
Am sure if you or anyone else had a specific mini-based scenario that they were willing to GM the organiser would be happy with it tho.
