Comments on: Show042: Interview with Thor Olavsrud http://theoryfromthecloset.com/2008/07/22/show042-interview-with-thor-olavsrud/ A punk perspective on tabletop RPG's, their theory, and design.

Well, today that pitch would be this: "Nobles is a game of political machinations by would-be rulers under the gaze of the Inquisitor as he assesses their worthiness for the crown of the recently-deceased king." Tabletop Manifesto is a mixture of Nobles design notes, gaming observations and announcements for conventions. I should really add a search link for Nobles-related material. One line pitch, eh?

Although it's Thor that deserves the lion's share of credit. I just tapped his brain, he's the one that spewed the knowledge all over the microphone. I tried checking your blog and didn't see anything about a game. What's up with that? Care to hit me with a one line pitch? Hey Andrew,

Glad it was helpful. Although it’s Thor that deserves the lion’s share of credit. I just tapped his brain, he’s the one that spewed the knowledge all over the microphone.

I tried checking your blog and didn’t see anything about a game. What’s up with that? Care to hit me with a one line pitch?

Thanks for holding such an informative discussion. I'm at the point of putting together the play system for my game, so this was quite helpful in giving me some focus. Thanks Clyde.
