Ye Olde Genesys ADnD

Welcome to a poorly run game of Genesys.  Have I run Genesys before? No.  Have I run AD&D before?  Of course, many times.  What has one got to do with the other?  I remember when I was cutting my teeth on 2nd ed.  That feeling of excitement, of possibilities, of creating a character and adventuring.  What else has given me the same feeling of "I can't wait to get into this" through the years?  Some old White Wolf games, a few incarnations of Gamma World, and RIFTS (there I said it).  But it's been a long time... a long time.  I made my own RPG Projects; I played board games, card games, dice games, and then recently Keyforge.  FFG then announced Keyforge in Genesys, and I said, "What is this Genesys thing?"

The feeling came back.  It had only been asleep.  Listening to a few podcasts, reading the core rule book, pouring through websites.  I want to adventure, but again, what does AD&D have to do with anything, other than reminiscence?  Resources.  A short stack of old adventure supplements and dungeon magazines that never got played.  I'm curious how they would feel in Genesys.  The old red book from the old red box felt different but fun.

So brave adventurers, some world building and game building is necessary.  Some assembly required.  Break out your writing and your narration skills.  Let's role.
