I read the GMing book, and the concepts it taught me made me run games better! I enjoyed creating goal-oriented villains and liked how it coincided with Matt Coville's other videos that touched the topic. However, it seems that my players aren't as interested in maintaining and updating their goals after creation. Has anyone else found alternate ways of having players maintain their Short/Mid/Long term goals that doesn't require constant upkeep? Could be an alternate version of it, or something else

While Jonah and I are proud authors of the Game Master's Handbook Series, we're occasionally also asked to contribute to our great cousin Game Master's Book series (the big hardcovers that the incomparable Jeff Ashworth originated). Next week, the Game Master's Book of Legendary Locations releases! We try not to plug too much business into the lab, but this one is such a big collaboration with tons of extremely talented people, we can't resist---writers, artists, editors, layout, and more were all amazing. If you want some inspiration for your game, consider checking it out!

Hola Masters! A friend of mine just came back from Spain with a little something for me: a spanish version of the Core Rulebook of “Root, the roleplaying game”. You choose among rabbits, squirrels, opposums etc and you get in the middle of a forest fighting factions of cats and eagles. I loved the concept! Do any of you know if the proactive mode is easy to apply on this game? Do any of you masters know and plays Root in a proactive way? Looking forward to read you all! Saludos Masters!

Hola Masters! Finally proud to say that my second proactive game is about to start! Today I come to you to get opinions, one of my players has a background in which his dad has been missing for quite a while and his goal is to find it. Another players background involved a shadowy figure controlling a Manticore that killed his whole community. So far he has run and killed the manticore so his next target? Find this shadowy figure and get sweet revenge. Of course I HAD TO MIX THOSE! This missing dad is a powerful evil wizard, and responsable of killing this other player family and friends. What other ideas come to you? What would you do if this was your own running table?! What goals would you give him? Im all ears! PS. At some point I was thinking to make this “father” the original and the player just his last good magic that became a person when this BBG performed a ritual to get rid of his goodness. What do you think? (Player doesn’t know of course) Saludos Masters!

Hello folks! This is for the lovely authors of this community. I would love to buy the physical book but I'd settle for a digital copy as well. However, I see no way to buy it from outside of the US, even a digital version. Am I missing something? If not, is there a solution on the way? Thank you in advance!
