My 10 year daughter has finished her Blackfoot Project for school with very little help from Dad and I'm very proud. It has inspired me to play a RPGing type game where the kids are immersed in an adventure taking place in the era and world of the North American Blackfoot. Just discussing the options of the characters and their circumstances has already led to a great alertness to the subject. I've never thought of using Roleplaying to educate but I'm sure it must be a device employed by teachers. Any comments, suggestions or recommendations on scenarios, rules or sources of info on the Blackfoot that might make this easier on a dad are most welcome :)

Nice! I keep going between the pictures and noticing new things. There's a ton of really good work there. |

Cool, I'll bet you're very proud of her. |

I have neither suggestions nor recommendations. Only the comment that "You are obviously an awesome father!" |

Will the roleplay involve skirmishes? Song of Drums and Tomahawks would be ideal for this. As others have said, scenic items and figures look great! You are justifiably proud. |

Thanks for the kind comments. I've shared them with my daughter and she's chuffed and wants to thank you too. @Timotheous On your recommendation I just ordered the pdf and there's great reading in the history section already. Thanks |

Lovely work! Possibly a rule set like Gutshot, using the indigenous section? |
