This will be a three-part playtest of the Zweihander RPG. I have four decades of GMing experience, however, this will be my first time running the Zweihander system. All sessions will be recorded and edited in post-production for placement on YouTube. We will play with the rules as written with no optional or house rules, i.e., Primary Attributed will be rolled and placed in order (no arranging).
