How to Be a GURPS GM: Managing Expectations
A guide to aligning the expectations of the Game Master and players before and during a roleplaying campaign. It covers finding common ground on realism, rules interpretations, character competence, dice-rolling frequency, player engagement, and the use of mini-games. Although its examples focus on GURPS, the advice applies to roleplaying games more broadly and emphasizes collaboration at the table.
