Join Mick and I as we conclude our conversation about the last episode for the campaign called Embers from a Chimney! I think it is auspicious that we find ourselves talking about FGU, and the kickstarter is just around the corner. It kinda seems fitting to say that all things come to an end at the birth of something new ... what do you think? Do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we chat about our last episode in the campaign called Embers from a Chimney! What plausible story can I weave for these player? And what cliff-hanger, nail-biting moment will wrap things up? Is there one moment where everything is revealed and neatly tied up with a ribbon? I won’t make you wait on that answer ... hells to the NO! What I will say is that I split this 90 minute final episode, and I hope you enjoy where i made that split! So without further adieu good people, tell me, do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we continue our chat from last week. Mick asks all the pressing questions to look behind the curtains. Did you want to know what would happen if Oraqi returned to Dabu? Are you curious about why the Tosculi incursions? What did Kalen see while being a captive? What of Elbrim’s leaf? Will Callidus ever find his slave Daryl? Will Akmenos know peace? For answers to these questions and more ... listen! This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we chat about who is the Princess Karima, will Elbrim get lucky, and what are the similarities between the princess and a Pierson's puppeteer (Ringworld, Larry Niven reference)? How to subtly aid the players in remembering things that happened half a year ago; can taking attendance help? Finally let’s find out what’s inside Callidus’ box, what was the deal with his Vril Stone, and why is Sil murdering pixies? Do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we chat about players that find enjoyment, and take time from busy lives, for a good story where they can be the heroes. Did you ever wonder how much more time there’d for RPG if there was no school, job, family?!?! Eep! Does this mean to be a kickass player you can’t be a student, can’t have a family, nor a job? What should be done with players that like to do the talking versus those that don’t? Nope, not gonna say the word “engage”! How does a group achieve the comradery of CriticalRole, or the joviality of Acquisitions Incorporated? Is it done by weaving real world experiences into story arcs? Do you wanna know more?

Join Mick and I as we chat about streaming a campaign with twitch and what should a viewer see? Having a production engineer to take care of audio levels and viewer content while streaming. Players that take on the role of NPC store owners to switch up and have fun with immersion from another point of view. How Fantasy Grounds extensions like Dulux Oz’s Sounds can add to the immersion by introducing more drama or humour. The nature of RPG is changing and that is because of great peoples like, to name a few: Critical Role, Maze Arcana, Dice Camera Action, Encounter Roleplay, Digital Dungeon Master, and Dragon Friends. Finally we chat about various models of revenue for VTTs. Do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we chat about companions that have gone off the deep end, and what you must do to keep everyone safe? What is the smart thing to do with a familiar? What to do with players that like to introduce roleplay that throws and tests the GM’s ability to ad-lib. Handling cut scenes for players during shopping downtime, when players venture off on their own for their own mysterious reasons. Promoting interactive player roleplaying and not just player-to-GM roleplay. Do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we chat about when do pieces of information change from valueless to valuable? The GM scatters clues and the players find none, the puzzle remains. Then comes the ah-ha moment, when a player grasps a larger picture. Are there merits to post-session conversations with no GM? Is there beauty behind anonymous discourse? Can the phrase “no offense” remove culpability? What new tools has Fantasy Grounds introduced to remove creature meta? Do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we chat about why players enjoy trying to mess up the GM? If the players go out on a bender, is that the right time for a GM to introduce the NPC that will rob the players blind? How do you get players to loosen up and start haggling with the NPCs? What can happen when the players are allowed to roll against each other? What will a GM need to do if the players want to make wealth by creating and running a bank in a world of money lenders? Do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Join Mick and I as we chat again about seeding a plot point ages ago and finally seeing it bear fruit IRL months later, and then using that reveal moment to tie in another character’s backstory. What should the Grey Company feel when the build up for the Pallid Court visit had been months in the making, to finally meet a powerful NPC, maybe an ally, and ... she’s not there! Instead new NPCs, and one that sounds strikingly similar to a well known pop-culture villain. What are the rules for breaking an attunement? The consequences of player decisions; going left instead of going right? Should the GM use NPCs to remind characters how magics work? When to have downtime when 11 months pass IRL and only 2 weeks within the game? Do you wanna know more? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

This is the first episode for 2019 and it is good to be back! This week we return to Per-Bastet and connect with the Grey Company once more. After days within the game but months in real life, the company returns to the Pallid Court to provide the evidence they collected at the Pool of Blood. What and how plot seeds can be as powerful as big reveal moments to make the story more immersive, using discord and Fantasy Grounds to maximise that reveal, and what is inherent value for a GM comes from these moments?
