Tom, Dan, and I discuss how to run a campaign about building an organization and how it differs from a standard campaign. The degree of new game mechanics necessary to run such a game varies so it&#8217;s possible to run this style of campaign in nearly any RPG. However, picking a game that has focused mechanics may result in a more engaging game.
