Steve Jackson Games Forums - View Single Post - A simplified teaching method for introducing new players

The scripted Rigged Demo seems like an interesting idea, but comes across as more of a sales campaign for gaming stores to get people excited about the game. Not quite what I had in mind though..

I'm new to the game my self, but have trolled enough forums and read through as many of the rules and updated rules as I could find, so I feel comfortable with my ability to direct a small group of first time players. I'm going to work on a way to ease newbies into the more complex dynamics of the game and will update what I find to work, and what seems to confuse/frustrate new players in the beginning.

I have a family function tomorrow and should be able to get 3 or 4 victims to help me hash this out... Wish me luck!
