44:56

One D&D is on the horizon and playtesting is already underway. But while we're looking to the future of the game, it's also important to look at where in its past some of the changes are coming from. This episode I look at two options for PCs that are unique for One D&D in different ways. Orcs trace back to the very beginning of the game, but for t…

Lord of the Rings RPGs 40:14

One ring to rule them all, One ring to find them, One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them! I wish there was only one Middle-Earth game to bind all the players together, but over the past 40 years of LotR RPGs, there's a few more than that. This episode breaks down the gaming (and legal!) history of Tolkien's greatest works. From M…

2y ago49:58

49:58

In preparation for the August 2nd release of the first Dragonlance novel in over a decade, Dragons of Deceit, this week's episode is all about the story so far. Considering there's about 200 novels set in this world I'm limiting the episode to only the ones I think will have the biggest impact on the upcoming trilogy: The Chronicles Trilogy Dragons…

Stranger Things 37:41

2y ago37:41

37:41

A cultural phenomenon deeply rooted in the pop culture of the 80s. Stranger Things is full of references and homages to E.T., Firestarter, Back to the Future, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and most importantly D&D. This episode I look at how the concepts from D&D that the kids use to conceptualize the monsters (Demogorgon, Mind Flayer, Vecna) compare …

A Brief History of D&D 50:31

2y ago50:31

50:31

I realized some foundational episodes were in order to try to get everyone who listens on the same page. First up with that is this history of the world's first role playing game: D&D. 50 years of history is far more than a single hour long episode can handle so for this I focused on the various editions of the game, why they came about, what their…
