Show Recaps

Here are summaries of new episodes from Misdirected Mark Productions this past week:

MMPlays 009 – Slice of Life
A simple walk in a park. A meal with your family at a diner. A drink in a bar with friends. Sitting around in class passing notes and listening to the teacher speak about the beauty of playwrights from the past. These are all slice of life moments. But how does this enter the realm of RPGs? That’s our discussion on this episode of the Misdirected Mark Podcast.

Panda’s Talking Games 308 – Inspiration not Aspiration
Show us how you take inspiration from actual plays — without getting disappointed or let down but real table play! Phil and Senda talk about how to take inspiration from actual play and why it should be just that –inspiration, not your aspiration or expected table play. We also talk about how to take the things that you like from that actual play media and work to incorporate them into your game (again, as inspiration!).

Bonus Experience 06×03 – Mage the Podcast Crossover – Mechanics Workshop: Magick Merits
Monica joins Terry on Mage the Podcast to workshop the design concept of individual magic(k) merits, as well as temporary merits and experience rewards in Mage 20th.

Join us for an interesting discussion on in-character benefits and experience design, plus all the weird stuff you’ve come to expect from Monica and Terry having a conversation.

THAC0 with Advantage. Honor Among Thieves or THE D&D MOVIE
