GNOMECAST #170 – Session 0 Redux
Session 0. We’re doing it again. Why? Because it’s important. Why is it important? Because it helps groups understand who the characters they’re playing are, why the characters are doing what they’re doing, places them firmly into the campaign and setting of the game, and give all the players at the table a bunch of information so they can have a easier time creating that shared vision of play at the table. For expanded upon information like this check out the actual podcast.
GNOMECAST #169 – Plot Seeds
Not every seed that’s planted in the ground grows which is why you need to get some fertile soil, space your seeds in the soil properly, water them as needed, and monitor those seeds as they begin to spout and grow.
Same thing applies to Plot Seeds but instead of trowels, watering cans, and enriched soil we bring a different set of tools and ideas to the game table. Characters, places, items, and events. So take a journey though Ang, Chris, and Jared’s metaphorical garden and get into how they use plot seeds in games.
GNOMECAST #168 – Alex Thomas from Green Ronin
The gnomes welcome Alex Thomas from Green Ronin, the line developer for Mutants and Masterminds. Ang might have also Gulliver travelled him to a chain to get this interview. Either way, the conversation is pretty good, filled with super hero gaming conversations, and talk of writing for RPG companies. Please forgive our audio as this was done on one mic in unideal conditions.
GNOMECAST #167 – Parties…like the ones you dance at
