'''RPGA''' (Role-Playing Game Association — Ассоциация ролевых игр, Role-Playing Gamers Association — Ассоциация [[ролевик]]ов, RPGA Network — Сеть RPGA) — организация, существующая в настоящее время под патронажем компании [[Wizards of the Coast]], занимающаяся организацией [[настольная ролевая игра|настольных ролевых игр]] (в основном по [[система|системе]] [[d20]]) в международном масштабе.

RPGA была основана в ноябре 1980 г.

== Цель RPGA ==
The RPGA was originally formed to provide tournaments to conventions that would be both fun to play and fair to the players in the event. Each player was given a pre-generated character with a background, equipment, and some limited information about the other characters at the table, and a great deal of effort was spent trying to create balanced events. A game master and four to eight players would play a 4-hour adventure supplied by the RPGA. At the end of the adventure, the «winner» of the event was decided (on the basis of rules knowledge and role-playing ability) by tallying votes from the game master and the players (the game master’s vote counted double and was used to break any ties). These events are now referred to as «Classic» events. Players were awarded experience points based on how well they did in competitive events, and over time they could advance to higher levels. The players also rated the game master, and the game masters similarly gained experience points and could achieve levels as judges.

Initially, all RPGA events were for TSR products, primarily ''Advanced Dungeons & Dragons'' but also the ''Top Secret'' (espionage) and ''Gamma World'' (science fantasy) role-playing games. By the mid-1980s events based on games from other publishers were approved and distributed by the RPGA; the first such event was a Star Trek Role Playing game at Glathricon in Evansville, Indiana.

The RPGA later decided to allow gamers all around the country (and world) to play in a single campaign where everyone could create changes in a dynamic world. In essence it was to create the largest single RPG campaign(s). The first such campaign was [[Ravens Bluff|Raven’s Bluff]], the '''Living City'''.

The game(s) are set up as a series of «modules» (or adventures) where players play in groups of 5-7 people (one of whom is the Dungeon Master) at a time. Modules with story arc hooks have results sent to RPGA Headquarters for compilation — usually a certain percentage (a majority) is required for a specific result to occur. For example, if a world is cursed due to a cursed item and most people in a particular adventure succeed in removing the object, the curse could be lifted or altered for the world in all future story modules. Players who do not succeed still play in the world and gain experience and character growth as if they had succeeded since the «official» storyline dictates as such.

== Членство в RPGA ==
Membership was originally paid by yearly fee and included a subscription to "[[Polyhedron]]" magazine.<ref name="D&Dfaq"/> In the early years, membership was largely limited to North America, but in 1989, the RPGA Network branched out into Norway, Sweden, Denmark, the U.K., Israel, and Australia.<ref name="history"/> In 2002, RPGA membership became free, but the subscription to "Polyhedron" was no longer included as a membership benefit—the magazine’s association with RPGA ended the same year when it was bought by [[Paizo Publishing]], who then published it as a section of "[[Dungeon]]".

The RPGA currently has members on all continents of the world, except Antarctica.<ref name="D&Dfaq"/>

== Кампании RPGA ==
There have been many campaigns organized by RPGA, free to play for RPGA members (although some of the ''Living'' campaigns use or used retail books such as the ''Living Greyhawk Gazetteer'' and the ''Living Force Campaign Guide''.) Below are some of the current and previous campaigns.

* '''[[Living City|The Living City]]''' (1987—2004) A D&D campaign set in the [[Forgotten Realms]] setting, specifically the city of [[Ravens Bluff]]. The first adventure for this shared campaign appeared at [[GenCon]] in 1987, primed by articles that had appeared in "Polyhedron" magazine over the previous two years. The first adventures were played using the rules for [[AD&D]], but the campaign reached the height of its popularity using Second Edition rules. The campaign converted to Third Edition rules in 2000, but with the advent of the much larger and more popular ''Living Greyhawk'' campaign the following year, interest in ''Living City'' waned, and the campaign drew to a close in 2004.
* '''[[Living Greyhawk]]''' (2000—2008) A D&D campaign set in the original Dungeons and Dragons world of [[Greyhawk]], this campaign was introduced at [[GenCon]] 2000 in conjunction with the release of the third edition of ''Dungeons & Dragons''.<ref name="D&Dfaq"/>. The real world was divided into 30 administrative regions, each one keyed to a specific region of the Greyhawk world (that is, [[France]] = [[Ekbir]], [[Switzerland]] = [[Dullstrand]], [[Australia]] = [[Perrenland]], etc). Players could either play "Core " adventures that were available to all players worldwide or adventures that had been specifically created for their home region, but they could not play adventures written for other regions. (In order to play adventures from another Greyhawk region, the player was required to physically travel to the real-world area associated with that region.) The campaign was very popular, with over 15,000 players and over 1,000 adventures,<ref name = tulach>{{cite web  | last = Tulach  | first = Chris  | title = RPGA Report: Evolution of Shared Worlds (Part 4: The 3rd Edition Era)  | publisher = Wizards of the Coast  | date = 2008-06-20  | url = http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/drrep/20080620  | accessdate = 2009-01-31}}</ref> but with the advent of Fourth Edition rules, the campaign was drawn to a close in 2008 and replaced with the ''Living Forgotten Realms'' campaign.
* '''[[Living Forgotten Realms]]''' Launched in August 2008 at [[Gen Con]], this is currently RPGA’s only active living campaign, a [[D&D]] campaign using WotC’s 4th edition D&D rules set in the [[Forgotten Realms]]. This worldwide campaign divides the real world into twelve administrative regions, each linked to a specific region or city of the Forgotten Realms (the [[Dalelands]], [[Baldurs Gate]], etc.). However, unlike the regional play limitations of the ''Living Greyhawk'' campaign, players are free to play any adventure from any region at any time.
* '''Legacy of the Green Regent''' (2003—2006) A D&D campaign using v3.5 rules, and set in the [[Forgotten Realms]] campaign world centered on the northern city of Loudwater. Players took the role of defenders of Loudwater and supporters of the Green Regent. This was the first RPGA campaign to feature online tracking of characters and adventure outcomes.
* '''Mark of Heroes''' (2004—2006) This D&D campaign, using v3.5 rules, was designed to introduce the new [[Eberron]] campaign setting. Players portrayed members of the Diggers' Union, an archeology-and-adventure society, as they became involved in the ongoing story of the postwar turmoil that engulfs Eberron.
* '''Xen’drik Expeditions''' (2006—2008) This D&D campaign using v3.5 rules was also set in the [[Eberron]] campaign setting, and replaced the ''Mark of Heroes'' campaign starting at Gen Con 2006. Players had to join one of four factions, each of which had different (and often competing) goals. This campaign ended at [[Origins Game Fair|Origins]] 2008.
* '''Living Force''' (2002—2007) A [[d20]] campaign using the [[Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Wizards of the Coast)|Star Wars RPG]] and following the [[Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones|then current movie story line]]. In 2006, the license agreement between WotC and [[LucasFilm]] ended, and the campaign was brought to a close in 2007.
* '''Living Death''' (1997—2007) A D&D campaign, using Second Edition rules and the [[Ravenloft]] expansion book, set in 1890s [[gothic fiction|gothic]] Earth. Also called «Masque of the Red Death». Players belonged to the «Society of the White Rose» and fought the evils of the world. It concluded its scheduled 10-year run in February of 2007.

There were also several other smaller or time-limited campaigns started by RPGA, some of which continued to be organized and played outside the auspices of RPGA when the original campaign was drawn to a close:
* ''Living Kalamar'' (set in Kenzer & Company’s [[Kingdoms of Kalamar]] campaign world);
* ''Living Jungle'' (a sister campaign to ''Living City'', set in the jungles of Kara-tur that lie to the south of Ravens Bluff);
* ''Living Spycraft'' (a pulp spy action campaign using [[Spycraft]] rules by [[Alderac Entertainment Group]]);
* ''Living [[Arcanis]]'' (set in [[Paradigm Concepts]]' Shattered Empires RPG);
* ''Living [[Rokugan]]'' (set in feudal Japan, using [[Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game]] rules by [[Alderac Entertainment Group]]);
* ''Virtual Seattle'' (an sf campaign using the d20 [[Shadowrun]] rules)

 == Цель RPGA ==
-Изначально RPGA была создана для организации [[турнир|игровых турниров]] на мероприятиях [[ролевое сообщество|ролевого сообщества]]. Каждый [[игрок]] получал [[прегенерейт|заранее сгенерённого персонажа]] с [[квента|предисторией]], [[экипировка|снаряжением]] и некоторой ограниченной информацией о других [[персонаж]]ах. Наибольшие усилия прилагались для того, чтобы создать игровой [[баланс]]. [[Мастер|Мастер игры]] и от четырёх до восьми [[игрок]]ов играли 4-часовую [[сессия|сессию]], [[приключение]] для которой также обеспечивала RPGA. В конце приключения провозглашался «победитель» — наилучший игрок по знанию правил и [[отыгрыш]]у, выбиравшийся путём голосования мастера и игроков (мастер получал два голоса). Игроки вознаграждались [[Очки опыта|очками опыта]] и со временем получали более высокие [[уровень|уровни]]. Игроки также определяли рейтинг мастеров. В настоящее время эти мероприятия известны как «классические».
+The RPGA was originally formed to provide tournaments to conventions that would be both fun to play and fair to the players in the event. Each player was given a pre-generated character with a background, equipment, and some limited information about the other characters at the table, and a great deal of effort was spent trying to create balanced events. A game master and four to eight players would play a 4-hour adventure supplied by the RPGA. At the end of the adventure, the «winner» of the event was decided (on the basis of rules knowledge and role-playing ability) by tallying votes from the game master and the players (the game master’s vote counted double and was used to break any ties). These events are now referred to as «Classic» events. Players were awarded experience points based on how well they did in competitive events, and over time they could advance to higher levels. The players also rated the game master, and the game masters similarly gained experience points and could achieve levels as judges.
-Первоначально все мероприятия RPGA проводились по продуктам TSR, в первую очередь [[AD&D]], в меньшей степени по шпионской игре «Top Secret» и [[фантастика|научно-фантастической]] игре «[[Gamma World]]». К середине 1980-х гг. RPGA одобрила использование игр от других разработчиков. Первой такой игрой стала Star Trek Role Playing game.
+Initially, all RPGA events were for TSR products, primarily ''Advanced Dungeons & Dragons'' but also the ''Top Secret'' (espionage) and ''Gamma World'' (science fantasy) role-playing games. By the mid-1980s events based on games from other publishers were approved and distributed by the RPGA; the first such event was a Star Trek Role Playing game at Glathricon in Evansville, Indiana.
-Со временем в RPGA было принято решение провести [[кампания|игровую кампанию]], в которой могли бы участвовать игроки со всего мира, и где каждый мог бы влиять на события в динамическом, меняющемся мире. Первой такой кампанией стала игра «Living City», действие которой происходило в местности Raven’s Bluff в [[Forgotten Realms|Фаэруне]]. Игра представляла собой серию [[модуль|приключений]] для [[партия|партий]] из 4-6 [[игрок]]ов и [[мастер|ДМа]], каждое из которых игралось одновременно большим количеством игровых компаний. Результаты игры по модулям с [[зацепка]]ми для всей [[метасюжет|сюжетной линии]] кампании высылались в штаб RPGA для сравнения — обычно требовался определённый процент конкретного результата, чтобы именно он был объявлен «случившимся событием». Например, если мир был обречён из-за проклятого предмета, а большая часть партий, проходивших данное приключение, преуспевала в уничтожении данного предмета, то проклятие спадало, и это влияло на всю дальнейшую судьбу игрового мира во всех последующих модулях кампании. Игроки, которым не удавалось достичь успеха, не выбывали из игры и могли продолжать участвовать, как если бы им удавалось достичь результата, ставшего «официальным».
+The RPGA later decided to allow gamers all around the country (and world) to play in a single campaign where everyone could create changes in a dynamic world. In essence it was to create the largest single RPG campaign(s). The first such campaign was [[Ravens Bluff|Raven’s Bluff]], the '''Living City'''.

 == Членство в RPGA ==
-Первоначально членство в RPGA было платным и включало подписку на журнал «[[Polyhedron]]»<ref name="D&Dfaq"/>. В начальный период члены RPGA были только из США и Канады, но в 1989 г. отделения RPGA были организованы в Норвегии, Швеции, Дании, Великобритании, Израиле и Австралии<ref name="history"/>. С 2002 г. членство в RPGA стало бесплатным, но подписка на «Polyhedron» больше не была привилегией для членов, так как сотрудничество журнала с Ассоциацией прекратилось после его покупки [[Paizo Publishing]].

 == Кампании RPGA ==
-RPGA провела ряд кампаний, бесплатных для участников (хотя некоторые из них требовали покупки книг, таких как «[[Living Greyhawk Gazetteer]]» или «Living Force Campaign Guide»). Далее описываются наиболее крупные кампании:
+There have been many campaigns organized by RPGA, free to play for RPGA members (although some of the ''Living'' campaigns use or used retail books such as the ''Living Greyhawk Gazetteer'' and the ''Living Force Campaign Guide''.) Below are some of the current and previous campaigns.
-*
-* '''[[The Living City]]''' (1987—2004). Кампания по [[D&D]], действие которой проходило в [[сеттинг]]е [[Forgotten Realms]], в первую очередь в Raven’s Bluff. Первое приключение этой кампании было представлено на [[GenCon]] 1987 года; ему предшествовали статьи в журнале «Polyhedron», печатавшиеся на протяжении двух предыдущих лет. Первые приключения игрались по правилам [[AD&D 1]], пик популярности кампании пришёлся на период использования [[AD&D 2|второй редакции]]. В 2000 г. кампания была конвертирована под правила [[D&D 3|третьей редакции D&D]], но начало более крупной и более популярной кампании «[[Living Greyhawk]]» привело к тому, что интерес к «Living City» угас, и в 2004 г. кампания была закрыта.
-* '''[[Living Greyhawk]]''' (2000—2008). Действие кампании проходило в первом [[сеттинг]]е для [[Dungeons and Dragons]] — [[Грейхок]]е. Кампания была представлена на [[GenCon]] 2000 года вместе с выпуском [[D&D 3]]<ref name="D&Dfaq"/>. Для её проведения участники RPGA из разных стран были разделены на группы по географическому признаку, и каждой такой группе был предоставлен для игры один из регионов Грейхока (например, французские игроки играли по Экбиру, швейцарские — по Даллстранду, австралийские — по Перренланду и т. д.). Предоставлялись как «базовые» приключения, общие для игроков по всему миру, так и написанные специально для конкретного региона, но игроки не могли проходить модули, предназначенные для другого региона. Кампания была очень популярной и насчитывала более 15 тыс. участников, игравших более тысячи приключений<ref name = tulach>Tulach, Chris (2008-06-20). [http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/drrep/20080620 «RPGA Report: Evolution of Shared Worlds (Part 4: The 3rd Edition Era)»]. [[Wizards of the Coast]]. Retrieved 2009-01-31.</ref>, но с выходом [[D&D 4|четвёртой редакции]] она была свёрнута в 2008 г. и заменена новой кампанией «Living Forgotten Realms».
-* '''[[Living Forgotten Realms]]''' (2008, активна). Кампания использует правила [[D&D 4]], её действие проходит в [[Forgotten Realms]]. Аналогично кампании «[[Living Greyhawk]]», используется привязка стран реального мира к регионам мира игрового, но отсутствует ограничение, не позволявшее проходить модули, предназначенные для других регионов.
-* '''Legacy of the Green Regent''' (2003—2006). Кампания по правилам [[D&D 3.5]], действие которой проходило в северной части [[Forgotten Realms|Фаэруна]]. Игроки брали на себя роли защитников города Громководье (Loudwater) и поддерживали Зелёного регента. Это была первая кампания RPGA, где использовалась онлайновая координация.
-* '''Mark of Heroes''' (2004—2006). Кампания по правилам [[D&D 3.5]], проходившая в [[сеттинг]]е [[Эберрон]]. Персонажи были членами Союза копателей (Diggers' Union), сообщества археологов-приключенцев, и вовлекались в события послевоенной истории Эберрона.
-* '''Xen’drik Expeditions''' (2006—2008). Ещё одна кампания по [[Эберрон]]у, также использующая правила [[D&D 3.5]]. В 2006 г. она сменила «Mark of Heroes». Игроки должны были примкнуть к одной из четырёх фракций, каждая из которых имела свои цели и соперничала с другими в их достижении. Эта кампания была завершена на [[Origins Game Fair]] 2008 года.
-* '''Living Force''' (2002—2007). [[d20]] кампания по сеттингу [[Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Wizards of the Coast)|Star Wars RPG]], действие которой начиналось после событий фильма «Эпизод 2: Атака клонов». В 2006 г. действие лицензионного соглашения между [[WotC]] and компанией LucasFilm завершилось, и в следующем году кампания была закрыта.
-* '''Living Death''' (1997—2007). Кампания по сеттингу «[[Masque of the Red Death]]», приложению к сеттингу [[Ravenloft]], действие которой происходило на Готической Земле в 1890-х годах. Использовались правила [[AD&D 2|второй редакции D&D]]. Персонажи принадлежали к тайному «Обществу белой розы» и боролись со злом в разных уголках мира. В феврале 2007 г. эта 10-летняя кампания была завершена.
-* '''Ashes of Athas''' (2011, активна). Кампания по сеттингу [[Dark Sun]] и правилам [[Dungeons & Dragons 4|четвёртой редакции]], стартовала на [[D&DXP]], [[Origins Game Fair]] и [[GenCon]] в 2011.
-* '''Living Divine''' (2011, активна). Стартовала на [[GenCon]]-2011.
-Несколько меньших по масштабу кампаний RPGA:
