I've been thinking along similar lines a lot of late, not so much
about alternative story streams (heck, that's what campaigns are for
:)). but in establishing a generally agreed set of guidelines for
playing in a Glorantha that is less troubled by some of its more
overt seventies and eighties baggage: frr instance, Heortling gender
constraints and cult strictures, and the overall essentialism. While
this might be a 'G2' series of GAG conventions, it will probably
always remain YGMV.
Just thinking aloud ... which always gets me into trouble.
Maybe we just need to wait until all the gods die, in about seventy
years time. Between now and then of course, nothing but war and
rumours of war, floods, earthquakes, cats and dogs living together ....
