* Tribes of Cara Fahd: Rejruk's Foxes * The first "indigenous" tribe we've encountered. * All chiefs take the Name Rejruk. * Live in Gevosht, a planned community. * Don't have high opinions of the other tribes. * Very small force - maybe 50 mounted warriors. * Located between the Iron Fist and Broken Fang lands. * Scouts and couriers; focus on speed and stealth. * Rite of adulthood; emphasis on patience and focus. * Train in varied terrain so they can function anywhere. * Historical need for mounted messengers and couriers. * Krathis and Titanstroke recognize the value of the Foxes. * "Town orks," not nomadic the way the other tribes we have discussed. * Gevosht is your stereotypical "fantasy starter town" * Little sidebar commentary. * Discussion of some tribe-specific magic and gear in the back of the Cara Fahd book. * "Keepers of Secrets" * Practical folk, another twist on ork society. * Commentary about variety and no "one true way" for things to be. * Both Dan and Josh are fans of this tribe. * Image of Cavalryman mounts charging in to aid their riders.

On today's Zero Limits Podcast I have a chat with Jeff Casson former Australian Army Armoured Corps Cavalryman and Queensland Police Officer.After being rejected on his first attempt to enlist into the defence force due to a previous knee injury after successful appeal Jeff enlisted into the Australian Defence Force in 2005 as a cavalryman within the Royal Australian Armoured Corps. After the completion of basic training and initial employment training at the school of armour he was posted to 2nd Cavalry Regiment in Darwin. During his posting at 2 cav he deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan and shortly after his Afghan deployment he posted to 3/4 cav in Townsville and again deployed to Afghanistan. In 2012 Jeff discharged from defence and decided to join the Queensland Police however during his police service Jeff's mental health declined where after a few years as a QPS officer he was involved in a incident where he was charged by the corruption and crime commission for theft in which the theft of 100 dollar was going to be used as a means to fund his suicide.

* Mystic Paths: The Fire Eater * Essay by Opti from the Legends of Earthdawn podcast and Fraggin Unicorn games! * The Fire Eater is the fully original ork-focused mystic path, built around the gahad trait. * Like the Brother of Stone explores obsidimen, and the Woodsman explores elves, Fire Eaters explore orks. * Not strongly organized or structured compared to some other paths. * In-setting, is seeing a resurgence due to the return and growth of Cara Fahd and an exploration and rediscovery of ork temperament and culture. * Sky Raiders, Cavalryman, Elementalists, and Troubadours are most strongly suited to the path. * Fire Eater training focuses, channels, and supports the inner fire that is gahad. * Gahad is something to be embraced and celebrated, turned to positive ends. * Joining the Fire Eaters involves giving in to your gahad in a dramatic and public way. * Initiation rites. * Path roles in character development. * Path modifications to the Karma Ritual. * Fire Eater half-magic. * Summary of the path's five ranks in its progression. * Unique Path Talent: Fires of Gahad. * Fire Eater talent knacks. * Fires of Gahad talent knacks. * Reminders: Earthdawn Actual Play from Thornvale * Foundry Virtual Table Top Email: edsgpodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @EDSGPodcast Josh on Twitter: @LoreMerchant Dan on Twitter: @boice_voice Get product information, developer blogs, and more at www.fasagames.com FASA Games on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/fasagamesinc FASA Games Discord Channel: https://discord.gg/uuVwS9u Earthdawn Guild Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/earthdawnguild Earthdawn West Marches: https://discord.gg/hhHDtXW

* One year of the Survival Guide. * Spirits and Summoning * Four Types of Spirits * A goal in ED4 was to try and make spirits more than just a stat block. * Spirits are not common, but not unusual. * Example spirits in the GM Guide show variety. * Inspiration taken from Werewolf and Mage games from White Wolf. * Try to see spirits as more than a tool for summoners. Make them denizens of the setting. * Lower Strength Rating spirits are simpler and more “archetypal”. * Spirits have their own goals and motivations that may not make logical sense. * Ally spirits: Often “Spirits of Man”, but also could be other strange astral fauna. * Beast spirits: “Spirits of Nature”, animals, wild places. * Elementals: Connected to one of the five elements, often focus on strengthening their element. * Insect spirits, or Invae: Goal is usually to expand the hive. Possess and transform people. * Horrors are astral entities, but NOT spirits. * Tasked spirits: A spirit called up by a talent or spell to serve a specific function. * Strength Rating is a guide for how relatively powerful a spirit is. Modifies a spirit’s base game statistics. * Named spirits are more powerful and harder to control. * Might get a Name from their summoner, or develop one on their own. * Spirits can have a diverse array of powers, including access to spells and talents. * Spirits should be characters * Summoning * Ritual process, intentionally designed not to be quick. * Generic summoning, if not handled carefully, can overshadow other characters due to the variety of powers the spirit can bring to bear. * For each success on the Summon test, the spirit stays for one hour. * Spirit Talk or Elemental Tongues determines which powers the spirit will use. * Contest of Wills: Forcing the spirit to do what you want. * Banishing: Sending a spirit back to its native realm. * Failed summoning can cause damage like raw magic. * GM Advice: Look at the examples and the variety possible for spirits. * If you have summoners in your group, look at bringing spirits into your story before they get the summon talent. * Similar concerns to Beastmaster animal companions or Cavalryman mounts with regard to group balance and spotlight time. * Players: Some planning and preparation is using spirits. * Work with GM to develop a spirit you work with frequently. * Weird sidebar question about Sorcerous Apprentice. * Winternight Trilogy by Katherine Arden. * Take inspiration from legend and folklore, especially from other cultures. * Spirited Away (or Princess Mononoke) by Miyazaki * Once again: Look at spirits as characters. * Potential source of plot hooks, key knowledge.

In May 1863, eighteen-year-old William Brooke Rawle graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and traded a genteel, cultured life of privilege for service as a cavalry officer. Traveling from his home in Philadelphia to Virginia, he joined the Third Pennsylvania Cavalry and soon found himself in command of a company of veterans of two years’ service, some of whom were more than twice his age. Within eight weeks, he had participated in two of the largest cavalry battles of the war at Brandy Station and Gettysburg. Brooke Rawle and the Third Pennsylvania Cavalry would serve with the Cavalry Corps of the Army of the Potomac through April 1864, fighting partisans and guerrillas in Northern Virginia and also seeing action during the Bristoe Station and Mine Run battles of late 1863. A meticulous diarist and letter writer, Brooke Rawle documented nearly everything that came under his observant eye in 150 well-written letters home to his family. These letters, supplemented by his diary entries, provide a fascinating, richly detailed look into the life of a regimental cavalry officer during the last two years of the Civil War in the East. J. Gregory Acken served for twelve years on the board of governors of the Civil War Library and Museum of Philadelphia. Description courtesy of Kent State University Press.

Todd Scattini spent 27 years of his life wearing the uniform of the United States Army.  He's been an enlisted man, a combat arms officer, and a military diplomat ,and at the heart of it all is his indomitable "Cavalryman Spirit. The Cav, as it is called, is a diverse, combined arms, military organization designed to be self-sustaining, flexible, and effective in combat. It is a special type of unit marked by a penchant for courage, decisiveness, speed, innovation and audacity in order to conduct reconnaissance and protection operations facilitating the mission of others. Historically, the cavalry helped the United States with its westward expansion during the infancy of our Nation. They provided protection for settlers heading West along the Oregon and Santa Fe trails departing from Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Cavalry Cannabis is poised and capable to assume a similar role as the United States and the world embark on a path of discovery, not unlike those early American settlers, to unpack all of the medical benefits we believe are held within the cannabis plant. Throughout history, in combat operations, when units were in distress, pinned down by enemy fire, surrounded and desperate, a message from the headquarters by messenger or by a crackling radio saying the Cavalry was on its way meant there was hope to be saved; hope for victory. Today, many veterans and active duty military personnel feel trapped and desperate. The population from where Todd came, and the veteran population that he is now a part of, is facing an epic healthcare crisis marked by unacceptably high homelessness, unemployment, suicide, and opioid abuse and overdose rates. Todd believes cannabis presents a safe and effective method to address these issues.     To most, it is likely surprising that he would end up in this position as the CEO of a cannabis company. Todd truly believes he has created his dream job. He also believes his education at West Point was meant to prepare him to lead soldiers in combat and to inspire him to a lifetime of service to the Nation. Interestingly, the skills and lessons he learned at the Academy, as well as those as a Cavalryman and a military diplomat prepared him well for his mission in the medical cannabis industry. At West Point, they were always taught that their only limit to their imagination was themselves and that they had to think critically about complex issues and then develop creative solutions to apply to them.  Todd believes there are few issues facing our country that are more complex than that of veteran suicide and our Nation’s opioid crisis. The two combined result in the death of nearly 12,000 veterans annually. Beyond that, opioid overdoses cost the lives of almost 70,000 American civilians last year. Cannabis can help reverse this situation. This is no longer an assumption. This is fact, and anyone who understands this would be irresponsible to ignore it and would be questionable as a leader.

War is hell and those who've seen combat can attest to it. In every situation, a person must make the right decision. In this episode, a former CAG/Delta Force operator, Army Ranger Sniper, Air Force Special Operations Pararescueman (PJ), Cavalryman, and British Sapper share stories and talk about ethics in combat. Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Tom Satterly is a former CAG/Delta Force CSM; Paul Martinez is a retired US Army Ranger and sniper NCO; Scott Johnson is a former British Army Sapper and EOD Tech; Matt Schollard is a former Air Force Pararescueman (PJ).

“Gettysburg: Day Three” Jeffry D. Wert re-creates the last day of the bloody Battle of Gettysburg in astonishing detail, taking readers from Meade's council of war to the seven-hour struggle for Culp's Hill -- the most sustained combat of the entire engagement. Drawing on hundreds of sources, including more than 400 manuscript collections, he offers brief excerpts from the letters and diaries of soldiers. He also introduces heroes on both sides of the conflict -- among them General George Greene, the oldest general on the battlefield, who led the Union troops at Culp's Hill. A gripping narrative written in a fresh and lively style, Gettysburg, Day Three is an unforgettable rendering of an immortal day in our country's history. Jeffrey Wert is the author of eight previous books on Civil War topics, most recently Cavalryman of the Lost Cause and The Sword of Lincoln. His articles and essays on the Civil War have appeared in many publications, including Civil War Times Illustrated, American History Illustrated, and Blue and Gray. A former history teacher at Penns Valley High School, he lives in Centre Hall, Pennsylvania, slightly more than one hour from the battlefield at Gettysburg.
