Join me on an adventure into the theoretical. Let's look at the game through this particular filter and see if we can fill in a particular blank.

Let's say a Strategic Plan is your big picture goal, what you want to accomplish stated in a succinct and easily reference manner.

The let's say your Tactical Plan are the various goals you think are going to lead to you the fulfillment of your Strategic Plan. If you're Strategic Plan is to conquer the known world, then a good Tactical Plan would be raise an immortal army of the undead.

Finally, let's say your Operational Plan is the moment to moment instructions of how you intend to accomplish your Tactical Plan. 7:15 AM to 10:45 AM Monday, research necromancy in the Hall of Forbidden Texts. That sort of thing.

• The Strategic Plan is to toil together "to craft an enthralling short story of sword and sorcery."

• The Operational Plan is the rules as they are presented in issue 3 of Worlds Without Master.

• What's your Tactical Plan?
