Welcome to the anthological, actual play, interactive book club podcast! Join us weekly as we explore the TTRPG world. From D&D to Skate Wizards! Tally ho!

Getting the new episodes from the past year uploaded to the YouTube channel made us throw a quick design for the Quiet Year stuff we did. It's simple, but, we dig it.

Hey there! There's an app called, "Minifig Scan." It's not officially sponsored or anything but that's how I was able to get Tasha and the Elf bard I wanted! You scan the QR code on the bottom of the box and it'll show what's in it.

Currently, we're in process with updating some Thumbnails for the podcast for past episodes. Plaugelands is one and then The Quiet Year. (Resisting the urge to just have a giant egg as the thumbnail 😅)

Still, liking some of the newer ones!

Day 11: RPG with well supported one-shots.

Hm. To fully expose myself and my desire to learn new systems; I've found the fan community for DnD 5e has a wide variety of custom one shots.

If people have other recommendations, would love to hear about them!

Currently in process of getting session zero out next week for our Blades in the Dark arc, "Sanguine Song." Here's the thumbnail we cooked up for it! 🗡️

Day 10: An RPG you'd like to see on TV

Okay. If we're talking something like an adaptation? Blades in the Dark. Which, sounds like it IS being adapted. Sweet.

Day 9: An accessory you'd like to see

So here's the thing. I would appreciate (if it doesn't already exist) a template/software that allows you to 'build a DM/GM screen.'

Give you options to slot in and out different rulesets etc for all sorts of games to print out or make our own. 🤷‍♂️

Day 8: An accessory you appreciate.

Dang! Hard to nail down one thing. But! I do appreciate custom dice storage/dice towers/storage

In general, having something even to store all your accessories like, notebooks, extra dice, index cards, etc; does wonders for organization 😄

Day 7: RPG with "good form"

Er...I'm not exactly sure what "good form" means, terribly sorry.

After looking through examples given, I feel that there are much more experienced TTRPG players/DMs that would have recommendations. Apologies 😅

Day 6: RPG that is easy to use.

Hmm. Well, atm (as we explore new games) the easiest to pick up and play was Skate Wizards recently.

Of course, there are plenty of "one page" TTRPGS out there.

Day 5: RPG with great writing

I'd have to say #BladesintheDark by John Harper and Evil Hat productions. Just really beefy stuff with all the world's lore and the like

Day 4: RPG with great art

Woof! That's hard to narrow down. But, The Lord of the Rings RPG (compatible with DND 5e) has some BEAUTIFUL art.

Day 3: Most Often Played RPG

Well...kinda locks back into DnD 5e 😅 There's a LOT of fan made material that we've used in our home games and some on the podcast.

Still! The goal is to find/play more stuff in the future! So this may skew different as we explore stuff! 🎲⚔️

Day 2: Most recently played RPG

#DungeonsandDragons5e

Don't really have to say much about this one! Recently played with a player who has taken on a DM role for a while! Just fun to see them take hold of the game and stories they want to share!

Hey! Here's a little rough reference photo of the world/continent we are building for "Amalganation;" where we are creating/rolling up a world to use for future episodes of the podcast!

(It makes more sense if you'll give a listen 😅 New episode, Thursday!)
