#49.5 – Playin’ and Slayin’ – Attitudes of Gratitude
Posted by Troy
It was the night before Thanksgiving and the guys get together to discuss the multitude of things they have been playing, building and reading. They then put a different spin on the usual “What are you thankful for?” query by looking at their 2020 gaming through four different questions we are calling the “Attitudes of Gratitude”

#38 – Playin’ and Slayin’ – RPG Rituals, DungeonFog
Posted by Troy
This episode the guys cover what they have been playing, building and buying as usual, then inspired by the Critical Core game they discuss rituals in RPGs. Not “cast a spell” rituals, but those things you do (or should be doing) before, during and after each session. In “Play it or Slay it” they review DUNGEONFOG, an online map authoring tool that Ty has been trying out.
