Events

[gordbond]

When your running a game do you roleplay your events out or do you just read what happens then get the PCs to make the appropirate stability, economey or loyalty roll where appropirate.

I try and do both but some events are great to make continues and the ramifications can be fun.

like fueding nobles.

Disclaimer: I'm really detail oriented, and my players love the nitty-gritty aspects of what the Kingmaker AP proposes. This campaign is likely to last years for us.

I plan on using the kingdom events as a launching point to introduce new NPCs and to integrate the PCs interactions with the kingdom. This thread gives a bunch of new events and ideas on how to implement events. This link was the result of that discussion.

I will likely play all of this out every time. Most likely, I'll have them make the decisions and the roles for a couple months at a time, keeping results secret, then role play out everything that happens. I even plan on using new buildings to introduce new NPCs. After all, someone opening up a new tavern in town ought to be someone you get to know.

All of this will lead to ways to introduce the plot points, rumors, quests and happenings for the entire path. Again, though, we're really detail oriented. I can see a mix of this approach and the "just make a role" approach being very good for most groups.
