GM Academy Workshop: Building a Combat Encounter

GM Academy Workshop: Building a Combat Encounter April 16, 2014 (Wednesday) 9:00 PM – 10:00 PM Eastern Standard Time The 3 points of engagement How/when to best use a combat encounter The question of our time: Difficulty Live group built encounter exercise Here we go again. We are rolling out the next workshop in the new series. The subject will be Building a Combat Encounter (in the future we will do one on building a social encounter) and above you can see the primary content of the workshop. This was the second highest voted subject, just under plot by one vote, so we found it best to do this one next. You will note that the day has changed from Saturday to Wednesday. Many of you voted in the poll that Keaggan posted about the best time for these workshops, and Wednesday evening was the most popular. So we plan on making Wednesday evenings from 9:00-10:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, the regular time slot for the bi-weekly workshops. Again it will be held on google hangouts and an invitation to the table will be posted an hour before kickoff. I am especially excited about this one as the last 20 minutes of the workshop will be us building an encounter live using the tools and methods we discuss in the workshop. I am sure it will be a lot of fun. I look forward to seeing you at the table!

What system are you planning to use though?
This particular GM Workshop will be system neutral. We will be going through combat encounter principals that can be used with your preferred game of choice.
Just a quick reminder the new GMA workshop is less than 24 hours away! We will be post a link here for those that would like to join the chatroom. We are using Google Hangout On Air featuring the Roll20 app. A link to join will be posted here an hour before launch. See you all there!
Make certain to send a tweet our way when you're getting started, and we'll see about publicizing the event!

Hi there, Very instructive workshop, loved it. There was mention of a community-fed list of combat engagements. Is it available anywhere?
