Hello everyone,

<edit>

Silly me... The title of this topic is supposed to be:

SW-EotE withOUT a GM?

and not

SW-EotE with a GM?

</edit>

yesterday I gug through this forum and the sub-section for gamemasters, because someone told there was a discussion once about playing SW EotE without a GM ... Either I missed it or did not recognize it, or there never was such a discussion yet.

Anyway: My question is, if any of you have experiences with playing SW-EotE without a GM?

During the last like nearly 10 days I listened to all the episodes of the Order 66 podcast - well, I did not listen to it, since no one listens to any episode of the Order 66 podcast - , and several times when Jay Little from FFG was a guest on the show he mentioned the possibilty that SW-EotE could be played without a GM, although there never was the intention to create the game in that way; but the game-mechanics and narrative dicing-method would allow such a gameplay ...

So, did anyone here do this? Or do you see the possibility? And what special things should be considered or kept in mind in order to play the game that way?

Best wishes!

I started that thread. I'll have to actually not listen to that podcast.

No GM???

Scandalous.

My players aren't getting rid of me that easily.

Just become a gamer in your group yourself.

You might be interested in Here's what this system needs badly. I suspect it is the discussion you were trying to find.

Hello.

Thank you very much; this is close to what I was hoping to find. But it is only about the necessity of this gameplay-option. Although interesting, that discussion does only scratchwhat I was hoping to find - a topic, in which the method of GMless gaming would be discussed much more in detail - with the flaws ans merrits as well as to avoid or compensate the flaws.

But besides that I have learned about the virtual GM, and thisnis what I will search now.

Best wishes!
