Minions and Musings

Wherein I talk about blockers and recognizing I had a blocker in my prep for the RPG world for the minions.  I also wonder how many other Anchorites have a similar thing like this.  Also, how many of them really read the liner notes.  I read theirs, turnabout is fair play.

Yes, herein I go over the newly revised BX Remastered Dungeon Guide and see if they fixed all of the issues.  Betting windows are now closed so no more wagering.  I hope I can stay civil throughout this whole endeavor. If you want to hear the previous podcasts in this series, you can use the following links: Part 1 ,    Part 2 ,    Part 3 ,    Part 4 , &nbsp...

I waited for a bit to collect all of the voice messages on the last four BX Remastered reviews. So, I present all of them for posterity sake. Calls from Free Thrall, Jason, Joe, Jason, ShandyAndy, Ray Otus, and Josh. Plus more from Jason (it wouldn't be a podcast without him, now would it?). I also have a final thought or two (for now) on the whole project.  This won't be the last time I say...

The last part of the review, now looking at content in the Dungeon Guide.  Adventuring, Monsters, Treasure.  Also, what isn't in this version that was in BX and what is missing.

I continue on with the content in the Player's guide, this time the back part of the book.  We take a look at the spell lists and some spells for each of the spellcasting classes.  I also note some issues with the lists as well.

Part 4 of the Pacesetter's BX Remastered review.  This covers the material in the first part of the Player's guide and ends with the classes. You can leave a voice message at: https://anchor.fm/eviljeff/message Music - "Monster" by Skillet

Today we have part 3 of my Pacesetter's BX Remastered review.  Today is call-ins that I received since the first two parts went out plus I talk about the artwork that is inside and the outside covers.  Minion Delta was in the room with me (should have been studying harder for an exam) and I got her to comment on the cover artwork as well.  There was also one other note I make about...

It's time for Part 2 of my Pacesetter's BX Remastered review.  This time I go over the layout things that I noticed.  I even found one other note that I had missed and add it in. Leave me a voice message at: https://anchor.fm/eviljeff/message Music - "Monster" by Skillet

So, what happens to the first kickstarted I ever back?  Why, it was late.  That makes me like many others who backed other kickstarters.  But, it was the curious excuses and infrequent updates that really bothered me.  So, what does Pacesetter bring to the table with their take on the BX rules we love?  Part one allows me to state my position about the kickstarter and talk...

Just listen. This was unexpected.

Start by answering two voice messages that I received.  Then, tackling a question from Jason of the Nerds RPG Variety podcast.  Why is fantasy the most common theme for RPGs instead of Wild West or Horror or something else?  I definitely would like to hear some feedback about my thoughts.

Wherein I drop in the newest intro and talk a bit about Play-by-Post and why it can be good for you.  Also, I take a moment to respond to two messages. Leave me a voice message: https://anchor.fm/eviljeff/message Music - "Rebirthing" by Skillet

Welcome to the Minions and Nerds Variety Podcast! Jason hit me with a bunch of voice messages so I respond back to him. Nerd's RPG Variety podcast: https://anchor.fm/jason376 Leave a voice message: https://anchor.fm/eviljeff/message Music: "Monster" by Skillet

The episode wherein I respond to some voice messages from Lieren, Che Webster, and the Other Jason.  What else have I been doing since the last time I podcasted?  I also bring up a couple of items that I'm looking at using for the upcoming campaign. Lieren creates the Updates from the Middle of Nowhere podcast: https://anchor.fm/lieren Che Webster is from the great Roleplay Rescue podcas...

Yep, been a bit since the last podcast.  Sit down to talk about what I finally decided on.  Got a call in from Che Webster (which I find a massive cool thing to have).  Now, where to go from here? Che Webster at Roleplay Rescue: https://anchor.fm/rpgrescue The 'Next Hex' tool from Goblin's Henchman: https://goblinshenchman.wordpress.com/what-hexs-next/ Music - 'Simplify' by Wes King...

You never know where inspiration will strike. After listening to Roleplay Rescue podcast, I finally got an idea so what to do with my campaign as it winds down, since the oldest minion is leaving for the military. What could I do when it's just myself and minion Delta the sit down and play a game? Herein, I speak a little bit about what I heard, the inspiration, and when I think we're going to do...

Another interview with Minion Delta, this time getting her view on caves and character backgrounds.  As she was trapped in the car as we ran an errand, you can tell how much she just loves these snap, surprise podcast interviews.  Well, we had already talked about the day after I picked her up from band practice and picked up groceries, what else could we have done? Thanks to Ray Otus an...

Getting back into the podcasts after another pause.  I finish up some thoughts about caves and caverns and describing them as a GM to players. Message me on Anchor - https://anchor.fm/eviljeff/message Music - "Simplify" by Wes King

Vacation time

Personal podcast that I would like to share with anyone who wishes to listen.

My start into the realm of the podcasts. I'll start by thanking a few people, list out some of the different things one may hear on this podcast, and talk about what I use to organize my rules for the game I run for my minions.
