I've really been enjoying making one shots recently. I don't play super frequently, but in the last month alone I made a one shot for Mork Borg that I tried out with some friends from a friend (and I learned that the Mork Borg system really isn't for me) and I made a one shot for the GLoG (specifically Arnold Kemp's setting Centerra) that I played with some folks I know from the FKR Collective discord server.
That last one, The Brass Spire, worked supprisingly well (though the players of the Mork Borg game said they had fun as well, I really didn't like the combat in that system so for me the experience was a bit more mixed), so I'd like to reflect on why that may be. Before that though, let me gives a brief overview of the adventure and a quick summary of what happened.
