This episode we discuss our early forays into the exciting world of Rolemaster and we debate the merits of powergaming in roleplaying games. Ellisthion has made a number of posts on the topic (which you can find on the site) explaining how to get the most out of the rules for creating Dungeons & Dragons characters. The topic of powergaming is a contentious one, with even the term frequently having negative connotations. We look at both sides of the argument and see if there is a place for it in your everyday campaign.
