    The concept of professional training of gamed out simulated scenarios, i remember seeing this, separately from d&d, traced back to the same place.

    Look I’m with you in spirit, but i think you’re missing the secret ending here.

      I am talking of times with kids, in the middle of a story, saying that they would have discussed more with the dragon because the princess would have been boring (yes, it’s a sexist story in this example). This is also a source of role-playing.

          Perhaps. But it was only that war isn’t needed to imagine stories, even if those stories follow some rules.

          I was expecting that you would say that not war but conflict is always present.
