Our Guests+Alex Mayo+Chris KutalikShow Notes after the jumpGuest NotesChris KutalikHydra CooperativeHill Cantons blogSlumbering Ursine DunesFever-Dreaming Marlinko[NEW!] Misty Isles of the EldAlex MayoLayout and illustration for lots of OSR products!Penetralia blog - No longer availableShow NotesThis is the second half of our conversation with Chris & Alex. The first part (Episode 7.1) aired on 3/24/16.Talking about pushing boundaries.Chris messes with form a lot, specifically the point-crawl.Problem: "Where are these things in the hex?" Instead of "What's in the hex?" the point-crawl strips out the empty space and instead moves between interesting things. (Then Adam kind of missed the point and got corrected by Chris)Alex pushes boundaries in art.A common thread in this conversation (but that Adam doesn't realize until the end) is that better decisions, better innovations and better gaming happens when we are authentic and genuine to our own thoughts and experiences. Alex: "One of the things that I love about the OSR is that it's an aesthetic movement as much as a movement about mechanics." [Paraphrase]"Where is the innovation in the OSR?" was a trolly thread that circulated on G+ in the beginning of 2016. While the folks behind that thread claimed they asked their question in good faith, they promptly shut down many OSR innovators who contributed to the conversation.Adam: "The innovation & boundary pushing in the OSR isn't about the rules, it's about form, structure and content."Donn seems to experience a degree of dissonance when he exposes himself to too many rule sets.Alex: "Boundaries are pushed in the community at large as a hive mind."Adam: "It's as much incubation as innovation."Our favorite boundary-pushers:Alex - James Raggi & Lamentations of the Flame Princess lineChris - Hydra Coop stuff, especially Jason Sholtis's Operation Unfathomable, and Patrick Stewart & Scrap Princess's Broken Fire RegimeDonn - Zzarchov Kowalski's Scenic Dunnsmouth & Thulian EchoesAdam - Jason Lutes's Perilous Wilds, Zak S.'s Red & Pleasant Land and VornheimWho are we most excited about their next creation?Alex - Zzarchov KowalskiChris - Gus L.

Donn only talks on a fumbleOur Guests+Noah Stevens+Tim CallahanShow Notes after the jumpGuest NotesTim Callahan - the man, the myth, the legendHNIC of Moon Dice GamesNoah StevensHounds of Halthrag Keep Show NotesDonn & Adam would like to apologize for the crappy quality of the audio on this episode. Long story.Donn loves dice.Tim's most stolen mechanic: from Questlandia - put narrative spaces on index cards, then have the players determine how they connect.Adam steals -- from King of Dragon Pass -- a mechanism for defining a group of people based on the myths they tell themselvesNoah -- from Adventures in Oz -- conflict doesn't need to be deadly. The focus on murder is problematic as a dad. Why all the death?Noah -- from Gangbusters -- non-cooperative narrative? Characters not working toward the same ends.Adam hates rewarding players for rolling well (this happens in many old school games in their original form; players are already rewarded for rolling well by succeeding).Adam steals dice success distributions from HeroQuest. The good one, not the RPG.Noah & Adam both use lots of ApocalypseWorld-inspired dice mechanics.Donn uses reaction rolls all the time. Adam suggests you pay attention to the one Jobe Bittman put in the Monster Alphabet.Adam suggests "Jaquaying" dungeons.Then it got all murky.DungeonWorld instincts are cool.Tim -- Marvel Superheroes -- award characters in-game benefits for enacting character motivations/beliefs/etc.Thanks for joining us for this episode of Drink Spin Run. If you like what you've heard, share us with your friends, leave us an iTunes review or send us an email at dsr@kickassistan.net.

Stanley is this episode's Waldo.Our Guests+Tim Callahan+Stephen NewtonShow Notes after the jumpGuest NotesTim CallahanMoon Dice Games & CrawljammerStephen NewtonThick Skull AdventuresShow Notes(If you listen closely, you can hear Adam's baby Stanley making cute little sounds throughout the episode.)Stephen expressed what pretty much is the best KS advice: "Don't ask for money until it's at least 90% done."More from Stephen:"...[W]rite the thing, outline the story..."Figure out the channels (Print? Pdf?)Later on, Stephen says that you should get into print even if it's Print On DemandPOD means you don't have to do any warehousing/fulfillment/handling distributorsPOD also makes it easier for overseas shipping customersWhat's your format? (Letter? "Digest?" - "digest" size is really half-letter)Adam adds: "your audience isn't everyone"Adam wants to see print/pdf bundles to work the opposite way that they work now: if you buy the PDF, you should get a discount on the print product. [Note: "One Bookshelf" or "OBS" is the company that owns & operates the websites RPGNow and DriveThruRPG. Most of the panel members use these terms interchangeably because they are.] One of Adam's reasons for self-publishing is that he wanted to continue to own his work. Most publishers own the work that is produced under contract. LIGHTNING ROUND: The panel all agrees that if you buy something in print, you should get it in pdf for free.

If there's an opportunity, could you guys do a show covering how you approach developing material for campaign settings from scratch? What are the essential ingredients for getting started, and how much do you feel like you need to have on hand before you begin? Also, what are considerations in terms of rules sets and how much do you feel like you need to tailor aspects before hand based on player temperament/style?  Thanks, I am really enjoying the show! Keep up the good work!Rafael likes to do a brainstorming session with his players about what the campaign setting is going to be like.Rafael: "I believe, as did Zuul, that the players should choose the implements of their own demise."Adam uses the term "campaign sufficiency" to mean "enough detail to start a campaign."Adam: "I give them the object then let them paint it."Rafael on improvising creatures: "I roll 2d8 and multiply them for the monster's hit points. I take the higher die and add 10 to it to get its armor class. The lower number +1d6 is the amount of damage it does." Then he uses a chart for special details.Adam: "Don't cheat yourself! Come up with a new way to do stuff every time."Donn brings up GM Burnout... we think that's such an important topic that we devoted Episode 10.2 to the whole topic.Donn: "There isn't a 'doin' it right.'"Donn: "World building adds confidence because I know the answers."Rafael: (Great anecdote about campaign play) "Let your players' decisions count and help them add meaning to your campaign."Adam: "Look for the opportunities your players give you and make them deal with the consequences of the things they do or don't do."Rafael: "I don't want to make things that make people flip through a book."Tables and Random Generators are pretty much the most useful thing you can have for improv.Adam: "I only want enough to run the first session. Everything else comes out of that one session."Donn: "How much do you give the players?"Adam: "If you make a thing, why would you hide it from your players?"Rafael: (Blind men & the elephant) "Failing at gathering information should never happen, that's not the risk of the game."Rafael: "Part of your obligation as a DM is to take these random bits of data and interpret them and turn them into something meaningful."Rafael: "Part of the job is figuring out 'What is the best way to turn this into a bad situation for the players?'"Donn: "You want the game to flow, not to sit around anticipating the next 'story arc.'"Rafael: "If I can't remember it, it doesn't matter."Adam's session sheet is based on +Brendan S from the Necropraxis blog, which you should all be reading. [Brendan's session sheet]MEAT DWARF!Third RailDo the skills that a thief class brings to the game justify the existence of the thief within that game?Rafael: "The game would be incomplete without a specialist in the environment. Fighters are combat specialist, wizards are magic specialist, why not a specialist in the dungeon itself?"Donn: "It's in the source material, so it's not even a question for me."Adam: "I'm more interested in the narrative that the players are telling, so I'm less worried about having to have skills and a class that does things that a player could just narrate, but it's fine to me if players want those elements. Is the Grey Mouser a thief or a fighter? Depends on how you look at it."Thanks for joining us for this episode of Drink Spin Run. We'd love to read your comments on the show, suggestions, where exactly we can stick what and other thinly-veiled threats.

Invoke situational aspect: "Kickass Podcast"Our GM+Nathan PankePlayers+Edgar Johnson+Donn Stroud+Adam MuszkiewiczSeveral episodes ago, we put out a challenge to our listeners: teach Donn & Adam how to play Fate! We'd tried before, but didn't quite grasp key elements of the system. The excellent Mr. Nathan Panke stepped up to the plate and decided to take that challenge. We wrangled up the Reverand Doctor Edgar Johnson III to round out our team and proceeded down this particular rabbit hole.In this first episode of our "actual play" session, Nathan gets us going on Fate Core, gives us a crash course on the system and Adam has a nearly existential crisis about the system's jargon.Stay tuned for the next episode, where the system really "clicks" for the group as we take on General Tso himself!Thanks for joining us for this episode of Drink Spin Run. We'd love to read your comments on the show, suggestions, where exactly we can stick what and other thinly-veiled threats.

Or will it fail and under-deliver like 3e did?Narosia - Village of Gilkas (sp?)... watch for it!D&D 5e Starter Set - Lost Mines of PhandelverBad beginning, great sandboxNo character creation rules in the Starter Set, just pregens (then Shane had some nonsense to say about faking it)Free "Basic D&D" is a good ideaOSR publishers already do that (Swords & Wizardry, Labyrinth Lord, LotFP, etc.)No more excuses!Adam talks about WinterCon over here.And then talked about Marmalade Dog con over here.Advantage: roll 2d20, take the higherDisadvantage: roll 2d20, take the lowerDCC Dice Chain: If things are harder, reduce the die you're rolling one or two steps on the dice; if easier, improve the die one or more steps. A d20 can become a d16 or d14 if unfavorable, d24 or d30 if favorable.Backgrounds - How much depth do narrative mechanics like this add within the game? Is it a crutch? A straightjacket? A useful tool?5e DMG - pretty damn greatAdam says 1e DMG is better, Shane & Donn say 5e DMG beats itGame customization options in the DMG are essential to AdamDonn: It's all in there!Donn: Will this DMG make better DMs?Andy: Lack of specific rules for specific situations creates more opportunity for better rulings-logicAndy: Creative hand-holding is helpful5e PHB - pretty damn awfulAdam doesn't think that the 5e PHB is inclusive from a racial standpointAdam and Shane disagree on what counts or not as inclusion#halflinggateAdam's going to get up on a soapbox for a moment: All of this stuff is fantasy. If you're going to hide behind a veil of "historical accuracy," you're in the wrong place. The big point of fantasy is that we're making this shit up anyway, so why not take the opportunity to make things more open and accepting? What's the point of not making things more inclusive? What does that gain you? Nothing whatsoever. Player Skill vs. Character Skill?Adventure Arcs/Seasons - Tyranny of Dragons, etc.Adam gets it as a marketing decision, but doesn't like it. Zak Smith's "My Advice to WotC Now That 5e Has Rolled Out" Andy: Give me the modules, but make the world surrounding them vague. I'm here for the world building.Adam: It's disingenuous to write continuity rather than teach how people how to make it for themselves.Shane: Wizards only has to do one thing, let everyone else figure out how to serve the rest of the market.Glass Door rating of Wizards of the CoastThanks for joining us for this episode of Drink Spin Run. We'd love to read your comments on the show, suggestions, where exactly we can stick what and other thinly-veiled threats.
