Agree :-). The point I tried to make was I find an explanation of what people have found useful instructive, rather than someone saying “you must do this”.

None. Let each table run what they enjoy. A long time ago I got sick of the what’s good and what’s bad advice on podcasts from people that I’m sure are well intentioned. Too many “experts” telling others how to play, rather than something like “I found this useful and am sharing it”.

The Orlanthi Thane killed the Dragonsnail with a lightening imbued sword while at the same time having his nethers splashed by acid from the snail (queue Immigrant Song soundtrack).

I ran a hack of The Black Hack 2e I called Glorantha Hack at a con this weekend. Adventuring in the Big Rubble our heroes got through combat quickly and it had an old school flavour of ruling not rules. #Glorantha

It’s not so well known in TTRPG circles that the fourth RPG produced was Dungeons & Dildos, with a print run of only 69 copies. It was stopped by the Mary Whitehouse great satanic sex panic of the seventies.

Zero. You just get questions about why you want peace and quiet, what is peace, why do people like quiet, when were you last quiet, can we have a piece of cake, etc.

Always spend the first two hours of the game explaining lore. Let the players know they should take notes as there’ll be a quiz at the end of the session.
