Tales from the Glass-Guarded World
The Tales from the Glass-Guarded World podcast is a must-listen for any fan of Dungeons & Dragons. GM Mike has crafted an incredibly well-thought-out story set in a unique and intriguing world. The players have the freedom to influence the story, making it both engaging and unpredictable. The audio quality is consistently excellent throughout, enhancing the overall experience. The podcast is also family-friendly, making it accessible to a wider audience. Overall, it is an enjoyable and entertaining podcast that I highly recommend.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the storytelling ability of GM Mike. He has created a compelling world filled with mystery and depth. The story unfolds in a way that keeps listeners engaged and eager to find out what happens next. His improv skills are impressive, as he seamlessly adapts to the choices and actions of the players. Additionally, his portrayal of NPCs adds another layer of enjoyment to the podcast.
Another highlight of this podcast is the cast of characters played by the players. Each character brings something unique to the table and their interactions with one another are both humorous and endearing. The chemistry between them is evident and their dedication to their characters shines through in their gameplay.
The worst aspect of this podcast is subjective, but some listeners may find that it takes a bit longer for the story to pick up momentum in the first season. However, patience pays off as the plot becomes more intricate and exciting as episodes progress.
In conclusion, The Tales from the Glass-Guarded World podcast offers an immersive and entertaining D&D experience. With its well-crafted storytelling, engaging characters, excellent audio quality, and family-friendly content, it stands out among other podcasts in its genre. Whether you're a seasoned D&D player or new to tabletop gaming, this podcast is worth listening to for its captivating world and memorable moments.

You can also send us an email.

Part 3 of our Start Frontiers homebrew rules playtest continues the story of S.C.U.M., the Splendid Company of Upstanding Mercenaries. They've made their way inside the Aramax One power facility to destroy the computer in the basement, only to discover some mercenaries have already broken in, disarmed the guards, and occupied the basement to do...something. Now they're making their way down the stairs to confront the other mercenaries. It's a confusing mess, isn't it? Art for this episode is by Brandon Weigel and Shaunmakes!

Part 2 of our Start Frontiers homebrew rules playtest continues the story of S.C.U.M., the Splendid Company of Upstanding Mercenaries.

This month we're back to a music release, and it's the intro theme from the Tales of Bob miniseries "Cowboy Bebob"! It's inspired by the music of Yoko Kanno and the Seatbelts from Cowboy Bebop, of course. You can hear Mike's friend Norman (from all the way back in high school!) at the beginning. Art for this episode is by Trevor a.k.a. @CosmicAmazing on Instagram. Next week we'll be back with Part 2 of the Star Frontiers playtest.
We're rapidly approaching the end of TFTGGW, but we're taking a break from the main story for this amazing playtest of some new homebrew rules for the classic Star Frontiers role-playing game. Pink, Brandon, Pavel, and Rhett each play members of S.C.U.M., the Splendid Company of Upstanding Mercenaries as they undertake a very shady mission. We think you'll really enjoy this three-part miniseries! At some point we'll have a Star Frontiers over on the Tales of Bob podcast, but first we have to iron out the wrinkles in the game itself.

The party has split! Zartok, Ansna, and Gerlos are spreading the Far Off One's magical jars around the inside of the crystal sphere that contains their solar system (we're using the classic 2nd Edition Spelljammer cosmology, not the 5E Spelljammer cosmology).

The party has been trying to get some answers, ideas, or decisions out of Mun the Immortal, in his orbitting wizard tower. So far they've only learned that the Far Off One's plan would work.

Just when the party seemed victorious, the enemy spelljammer started falling.

It's the first release of the month, so we're back to music. This time it's from Tales of Bob: Broken Tusk Rising. We have a lot of combat music for that show, because 1) Pathfinder 2E adventures have a lot of combat, and 2) combat tends to be a bit drawn out. Next week we're back to the Glass Guardians as their ship continues to be grappled by the Neogi Mindspider. Connect with us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Discord. Let us know what you think! You can also send us an email.
The heroes are so, so tired, and the enemy just keeps coming. If they happen to earn a breather, they'll use the time productively and then take decisive action, right? Right?

Connect with us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Discord. Let us know what you think! You can also send us an email.
