I didn't mention this in the video, but the principle of "PREP is PLAY" extends to Game Master prep for traditional roleplaying games as well. To quote Kevin Crawford (of Scarlet Heroes): "The Golden Rule of Preperation: Before you create something, ask yourself whether you'll need it for your next gaming session. If the answer is 'no', ask yourself if you're having fun creating it. If the answer to that is also 'no', stop working on it." Do you have any questions, tips for others or feedback? Feel free to drop a comment.
@@coraz0n_ great question! Sandbox generator recommends 2 mile hexes, but I prefer 6 mile hexes (and am using them here). 6 miles is supposed to be the “viewable distance” by a human if you were standing in the middle of a hex. I’ve found it works better (for me) for game mechanics with travel and exploration too when moving hex to hex, checking for encounters and tracking resources.
