Alternate History in Superhero Games at Gencon 2012
By
Synopsis: This seminar with Dennis Detwiller, Kenneth Hite, Shane Ivey and Greg Stolze is about historical superhero games. Arc Dream has two games along those lines: Godlike and the Progenitor setting for Wild Talents, so they have some background in the topic. If you’ve ever wanted to run an alternate history game, even without superheroes, this panel would be a must listen!

It was a really fun talk, and the folks at Role Playing Public Radio have put the whole thing online. Listen now. [...]
The panels are awesome, but make me sad I never get to go to Gencon to see them.
