So playing this game again I’ve noticed a few things I seem to be better at and one of those things is thinking of Fronts in different ways. For example I feel I’ve always had a problem with Place of Power and Underground Instincts. Be controlled or tamed, and defend the terrain from outsiders respectively.
Until I looked at it a different way. For example in my campaign I thought the Great Forest was a place of power but instead of the bad things happening because it wanted to be tamed, it happens because its not tame anymore(the protectors of the forest were all killed. And the same with the Centaurs instead of the fronts being about defending something thats already defended which I feel doesn’t give to many options for Impending Dooms, their goal was to get into a position where they could defend the forest and the impending doom is that they are the only defenders.
I think its interesting to look at Instincts and Fronts in a different way if your struggling with some of them.
Interesting. There is something slightly off-kilter about a lot of the Danger categories and instincts. I admit I don’t explicitly use them very often, but maybe I should look at them more, to get a different perspective on what the antagonists in my game might actually be doing.
