Show Recaps
Here are summaries of new episodes from Misdirected Mark Productions this past week:
MMPlays 022 – Intercharacter Conflict
Sometimes you just want to have that argument with another character. You don’t agree with their motives, ideas, how they looked at you. Whatever the reason, you just want to have that fight. It’s not full on PvP but it’s a conflict. So we’re talking about the tools and tips you can use to have these moments at your table without it blowing up your game.
Panda’s Talking Games 319 – June Chit Chat
Iiiit’s a chit chat! Due to some *life,* we’re doing a chit chat today instead of our normal discussion episode style. Additionally, there will be no new episode next Wednesday, July 5, as we won’t be able to record this coming weekend. See you all July 12!
On today’s chit chat, we talk prep time vs. play time and being a player as a GM who also gets to be surprised by the story, and positive metagaming for leaning in on a collaborative story. Also, Phil enjoyed his conference and Senda continues to read like it’s going out of style.
THAC0 with Advantage 22. Is There Room For New Classes?
Welcome to THAC0 . . . with Advantage! We’re two friends that have been playing D&D a long time. While we both love lots of other RPGs, D&D is the adorable critter that followed us home.
So many classes. So many sub classes. Do we need more from WotC’s 2024 DnD or are we good with what we have? That’s the question Ang and Jared ponder on this weeks Thac0 with Advantage. You’re all around fun times D&D Podcast.
Bonus Experience 06×09 Monica and D Evaluate Rules Exceptions
D is back in the studio with me today to deliver on our promise to discuss exceptions-based rules design. We talk about Exalted: Essence an awful lot, but also talk about Malifaux, Chronicles of Darkness, and some upcoming games. We talk about good examples of how to build strong exceptions and an equal number of bad ones, and point out games that don’t do this at all.
