Resources on how to use Wild Gears
Over the years I've received requests for a manual of how to use Wild Gears. I resisted this idea for a long time. Everyone I've ever sat down and used Wild Gears with has brought a different approach to it and done something genuinely new and unexpected. I think that the exploration is part of the process. Also, there is so much to cover that it is very daunting to try and capture that knowledge. And finally I think that it would limit the exploration beyond what the handbook provided. All that being said I recognize that there is a lot to learn and discover about Wild Gears and want to support that exploration with resources.
