I felt it best to present these with NO music in the background, so you all could hear better. There was a lot of activity out in the hallway from others who were staying in the hotel for other reasons, so I didn't wanna add to the noise floor there.
It honestly was really inspiring to me to hear them talk about just blindly barreling into thing after thing out of naivete, and then saying that the naivete is necessary to succeed.
It's always cool to hear the origin stories. I wish I'd had a chance to meet David Drake before he passed. He wrote some car wars stuff I really liked and the Hammers Slamers stuff was crazy.
So Jordan Weisman was amazed by DnD? It was fate, his destiny was to deliver us the joy of Battletech. I found that laws are rules of the rulebook of a nation. Senators should be board game designers. They will be able to predict behaviors and playtest laws before being passed so people cannot game the system. Will Jordan Weisman apply for senator? Teachers should also be trained to be game designers. Can you imagine learning by playing games? I bet Jordan would have had a better academic experience if that had happened.

Great to hear the back story from the actual creators. Lots of brave shots in the dark taken by some amazing people.

I LOVED HAMMER'S SLAMMERS. I still use "curst" in some stories lol.
I did not know about Jordan's early days, he has always been quite the visionary.
never underestimate the power of several normal-sized rats and a few unfortunate dice rolls.
Rats!
That was amazeballs
Just wait til you see the rest!
Stack! What a legend
The part about bringing ships into port without hitting bridges, just 2 days before the key bridge crash. Coincidence????
RIP to those souls lost. 💔

An interesting way to look at it for sure!
