So I have been busy with Real Life but finally getting back to gaming. Currently reading Coyote & Crow with intent to run in in August. Have talked to a local game shop and might test NUNA there in fall.
So, why am I reading and intending to run Coyote & Crow?
C&C is both imposing and inspiring for any indigenous RPG creator. Although the anime style cover art was perplexing at first, reading about their teamwork, then diving into the rules has filled me with determination to get NUNA out into the world.
Reading C&C's disclaimers about gaming as indigenous folk, I can see the decolonizing effect of the game. You either bring your indigenous culture, or just bring respect if you aren't indigenous.
The worldbuilding is also amazing. A world in which colonialism didn't happen is a breath of fresh air, and contrasts with NUNA's post apocalypse where Inuit are back on top. Both are equally compelling.
I have a few players signed up and will be playing online hopefully by the second week of August if I am ready.
If anyone is interested in joining, please drop me a line and I will add you to the roster.
