The art, the tone, magazine support, and the tie-in to the minis game certainly did not hurt, either. Especially in a pre-Net release.

For the last 20-odd years, I only buy pdfs.

Empire of the Petal Throne is one of the earliest RPGs, and it was, and still is, not in the traditional fantasy mold.

I'm still saying it, because at my table, it is true. The hobby is a very loose confederation of very small clans, each autonomous unto itself.

Politics and economy are inseparable. Both impact each other throughout the spectrum.

I never concern myself with player agency. I run my campaign, and some players make choices that I exploit for ideas and plot twists, and some players are content to roll with the flow.
