This twelfth episode of the Glorantha Initiation series brings us to the last of the interviews we recorded in the fall of 2021! We are talking to Chris, who discovered RuneQuest 2nd edition just last year and, only a few weeks later, upgraded to RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha! He doesn’t have an ongoing Gloranthan campaign yet but we talk about his sudden love for the setting, playing soloquests, and his plans for a future game.
Things mentioned in this episode include:
- BECMI red box D&D
- RuneQuest 2nd edition softcover and PDF reprint
- “Glorantha Classics” book collections, bundling RQ2 material
- Grounded and lived-in worlds
- The Mystara setting for D&D (more also here)
- BRP Central forums
- Telling smaller stories, about the simple villages and their farmers and crafters

- The Red Cow campaign for HeroQuest Glorantha: The Coming Storm and The Eleven Lights (also out of print)
- Sartar: Kingdom of Heroes for HeroQuest Glorantha (guess what, it’s out of print too)
- Toning down the superheroes with BRP rules

- Campaigns are TV shows, one-shots are movies
- Traveller (the latest Mongoose edition) and Traveller (the classic version)
- Mercator, a Traveller hack to play in the Roman Empire (scroll towards the end of the page)
