In response to Barney's message on my last episode I talk about my experience with total party kills in the games I run. Then I weigh in on the ongoing discussion of what's too much in terms of pre-campaign setting information and/or character backgrounds. I'm sure I don't have anything contentious to say on those topics. Lastly I have a couple of rad messages left by two awesome Anchorites.  Spec...

It's the session report of my second session of the Rise of the Runelords Pathfinder 1e Adventure Path in which I'm playing and I talk some more about what I like and don't like about Roll20.

In this episode I talk about my first session in the Rise of the Runelords campaign that I just joined and the final session of my 20th level Pathfinder 1e 3-shot I've been running for a few of my friends.

Wherein I talk about the second session of my 20th level game of Pathfinder 1e and share some awesome gaming news I recently received. The title is an E 40 album, which I felt was appropriate considering the number of the episode.  The first 3 minutes or so of today's episode are very political and contain no gaming. Feel free to skip ahead or skip this episode entirely.  A big, big thank you to t...

It's here! The spine-chilling, sanity shredding conclusion of, The Spoon That Binds; the globe trotting, World War I era scenario from Anchor's real life Call of Cthulhu investigator, Inspector Henchmen.

Wherein I discuss what an amazing time I've been having while prepping for the 20th level two-shot of Pathfinder 1e I'll be running for 5 of my friends. I've heard lots of folks say that D&D "breaks down" at high levels and I don't agree. Prepping for this game has been unlike anything I've done before and I am absolutely loving it.  Any of the folks playing in this game probably shouldn't listen...
