Available Online – Role-playing Tips E-Zine Issue #360

Issue #360 of Role-playing Tips Weekly is available online – 9 Ways To Recruit New Players

A couple of days ago I posted about issue #359 and while it was posted at the same time I held off mentioning #360 so that it wouldn’t be missed in a double post.

Issue #360 takes aim at a common concern for a lot of gaming groups – where to get more players? Johnn gives a lot of interesting advice (I liked the suggestion about getting a funny T-Shirt) and if you’re in need of a new player or two there are plenty of things to try.

Be sure to check out the readers’ tips as well especially the first one about techniques learned from strategic games. There are also some GM links included as well.

Enjoy!
