Episode 293: Non Violent Encounters, Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene

Jolene read a post from a father of three young daughters who he wanted to run a roleplaying game for but one daughter was very adverse to combat and violence. Jolene talked to Saul about the post and they discussed the various games they had run for very young and new RPGers. When their son was young, Saul regularly ran games at local con for kids. From D&D to Gamma World, Saul ran "kids" games at con for several years. Jolene has run games for her son and his friends at home. She also has run games at local Northern California game cons. Though Saul ran more traditional RPGs for Kids at local Cons he has toned down the violence and used alternatives to combat in many of his kids and adult games. From their discussion of how they ran games for kids and the Reddit Posting dad's predicament they decided to do an episode on the subject.
