Incorporating Hobbit Tales cards into TOR sessions

Post by Ravendesk » Fri Dec 22, 2017 10:18 pm

Are there good topics posted about incorporating the Hobbit Tales card game into the tabletop RPG? I know how to do it (according to the instructions), but I wanted to see if any of you had good advice or experience running it in TOR. Thank you!

Welcome to the forum, Ravendesk! :)

I have used the cards in my play-by-forum game, and greatly enjoyed doing so.

I think the trick is not to be constrained to a literal interpretation of the cards, but use them to inspire an episode, based on anything that grabs you from the card. They work well if you enjoy improvising things on the fly. There was a short discussion about using them, beginning at this post:

I'm not sure if there have been any more threads about the using the cards or not.
