Today's question comes from Zane in Georgia who asks:I was hoping to get a professional opinion or suggestion on how I should approach an issue with a small town council who won't update utilities and a seller who wants a premium price for their land but cannot get it because of utilities being maxed out. I am a residential and small multi investor and my knowledge of selling land for development is minimal. I have known the seller and family for several years and they trust me to represent them honestly, which is why they asked me to list their land. But, it has been a year and the few interested buyers we have gotten are bidding too low for the seller and then council ruins the DD. This is a 100 acre tract on two parcels in the city limits of Maysville, GA just off I-85N near Atlanta. Seller wants to get around 6.5M from the sale, I have warned that 4M is more likely but it's not a conversation they want to hear.  The land has 18 acres of C2 zoning on the main road with major utility lines on the road, and is the largest undeveloped piece of land in the city limits. Jackson county is growing rapidly and building a lot of housing, but the city of Maysville has been underdeveloped. They did just approve 2 large data center projects which I think will jump start the city into more growth. The local city lines have water pressure limits due to poorly functioning wells and council is fixing the issue by purchasing water from surrounding counties. The sewer lines and reclamation facility are maxed out for residential use, but supposedly have retail/commercial capacity. The engineer I spoke to said the system needed to be replaced ideally, but they could increase capacity if needed. There have been several offers at lower prices, but all have fail in due diligence as a result of lack of utilities.------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

Ever had that moment when you realize your party has been talking to the same "new guy" for weeks... but no one can remember his name? Welcome to the world of the False Hydra, the D&D monster that gaslights your characters harder than a reality TV producer. Join the RPGBOT crew as they peel back the layers of this memory-munching menace and ask the big questions: how did we miss this thing, and is it too late to blame the bard? Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we unravel the mystery of the False Hydra, a terrifying and unforgettable (ironically) monster from the world of Dungeons & Dragons. Known for its eerie ability to manipulate memory and perception, the False Hydra is a favorite among Dungeon Masters looking to inject psychological horror into their campaigns. The hosts discuss how to introduce the False Hydra into your tabletop RPG campaign, explore the creature's disturbing lore, and offer practical tips for roleplaying terrifying monsters. They share advice on how to design suspenseful encounters, how to pace scenes using the False Hydra's memory-altering abilities, and how to keep your players on their toes without losing them entirely to existential dread. Whether you're building a mystery-laden campaign or just looking for fresh monsters to terrify your adventurers, this episode is packed with insights on how the False Hydra can reshape your game world, and possibly your players' trust in NPCs forever. Key Takeaways The False Hydra is a monster that alters player character memories, making it an ideal choice for mystery-themed RPG campaigns. It uniquely blends psychological horror with traditional Dungeons & Dragons encounters. Roleplaying the False Hydra well involves pacing, dramatic reveals, and managing player paranoia. The creature is a powerful tool for Dungeon Masters who want to explore unconventional storytelling structures. Adding monsters like the False Hydra can create a compelling shift in tone, altering how players interact with the game world. Tips include using background music, shifting NPC behaviors, and introducing new "facts" mid-session to keep the players guessing. Ash Ely, Gamemaster on Startplaying.games If you're ready to experience mind-bending monsters like the False Hydra in your own campaign, hire Ash Ely to run a game for you on StartPlaying.games.

Join our Patreon at patreon.com/rpgbot and help us keep the mics on (and the ghosts at bay). Every little bit helps us roll with advantage! Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the crew dives deep into Ghosts in tabletop RPGs—both as monsters and as masterful storytelling tools. From the mechanics of possession and rejuvenation to the raw narrative potential of ghost encounters, Tyler, Randall, and Ash explore how ghosts have changed across editions of Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder 2e, and what makes them so uniquely haunting at the table. The RPGBOT crew kicks things off with a hilariously chaotic session involving the Deck of Many Things—complete with birthday gifts, legendary armor, spontaneous Feywild portals, and even a Strahd ventriloquist doll that summons a sorrow sworn. From there, they dive into what exactly defines a ghost in RPGs, how it differs from related undead like poltergeists and banshees, and how various game systems handle them. The hosts break down 5e's ghost mechanics, including the often-overlooked possession rules, wisdom saves against horrifying visages, and the now-removed aging effect. They also contrast ghosts in Pathfinder 2e, touching on templates, telekinetic assaults, and rejuvenation mechanics that bring them back after destruction. Along the way, they explore how to homebrew ghost encounters, emphasizing NPC potential, unfinished business as story hooks, and the role of safety tools when handling possession and tragic backstories. Key Takeaways Ghosts are more than incorporeal monsters—they're great vehicles for storytelling and emotional stakes. Possession is a powerful narrative and mechanical tool, but requires trust, consent, and player agency. Ghost rejuvenation mechanics in PF2e make them durable story elements rather than one-and-done foes. Using ghosts as NPCs or tragic quest-givers deepens the campaign world and encourages non-combat solutions. Cosmic horror, ghostly bargains, and unfinished business can dramatically raise the stakes of your story. Try dScryb for Ghostly Flavor! Looking to bring your ghost encounters to life—or unlife?

L'équipe de France n'est plus qu'à un pas d'une qualification pour le Mondial 2026, un succès contre l'Ukraine jeudi (20h45) au Parc des Princes, étant suffisant pour valider son ticket pour la phase finale, la dernière avec Didier Deschamps à sa tête. Pour motiver ses troupes, Deschamps pourra toujours invoquer le souvenir du 19 novembre 2013 quand les Français, battus 2-0 à Kiev en barrages aller, avaient réussi à renverser une situation bien compromise en l'emportant 3-0 au retour au Stade de France pour accéder à la Coupe du monde 2014. Une soirée magique et fondatrice pour un technicien nommé à peine un an et demi auparavant. Depuis, il s'est systématiquement qualifié pour les autres compétitions majeures.

As allegiances blur and tensions rise, suspicious glances between Rogers and the supposedly unshakeable Guildmaster Quinto hint at deeper conspiracies.

In the immortal words of Banes: "I don't draw blood unless I have to!" Takoyama came up with a great idea that he posted in the DD forums about the things that just don't tend to be drawn in your comics. Whether you avoid them because you can't draw them, they don't fit with your vibe, they don't belong with your comic rating, you want to avoid them because of cultural or political reasons, or you just can't be bothered with them and they're too out of scope anyway, there are many things you avoid drawing! This Quackcast is about that. Takoyama is the creator of the comic Thrudd Goddess of Thunder, which the Quackcast theme song by Gunwallace is based on. In my own main comic, Pinky TA, originally my thoughts were that there would be nothing that was off-limits. If I wanted to draw it I would, if the story called for it I would… No matter how bad, no matter how unfamiliar I was with the subject, no matter how hard it was to draw or how long it took or how much I didn't like doing it: fight scenes, complicated architecture, weird cameos, complex costumes, complex mecha, using a toilet, sex, eating, sitting around a meeting table, animals etc. I've since moderated my feelings about that after many years. Staying within ratings has benefits and taking extra time drawing hard or boring things isn't fun. One of the things I've always avoided in my comic work is Manga style and chibi figures because I have no confidence in my abilities for those, I have tried and the best I can do is an uncanny valley version that looks extra bad. What features in the current skyscraper ad was a version of Sailor Moon in my own style (which was part of a meme at the time) I'll make that the cover image- that's not really me doing manga, it's me doing my interpretation of it because I can't do it. What are some of the things you avoid drawing? Stuff about Trump, religion? Toilet use, bands singing on stage, people sitting around a meeting table, heavy gore scenes, people eating, cameos, chibi, manga, your OWN face? This week it's another best-off Gunwallace's musical themes and I decided to choose - Alienated - This is as if Joni Mitchell wrote a classical adventure anthem. This tune urges you on into the vastness and glory of nature. You are Caspar David Friedrich, A Wanderer Over A sea Of Fog, with the world in all its awesomeness spread out far below you. - Originally appeared in Quackcast 372, 30th April 2018.   Topics and shownotes Links Forum inspiration: Things Undrawn https://www.theduckwebcomics.com/forum/topic/180148/ Featured comic: Base Reality - https://www.theduckwebcomics.com/news/2025/nov/04/featured-comic-base-reality/ Featured music: Alienated - http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Alienated/, by Road Runt, rated T.

À deux jours d'un France-Ukraine décisif pour les Bleus dans la course à la qualification pour le Mondial 2026, "On refait le match" se penche de nouveau sur le possible avenir de Zinédine Zidane à la tête des Bleus, une fois que Didier Deschamps aura racroché. Depuis de nombreux mois, le Ballon d'Or 1998 multiplie les sorties médiatiques et ne cache pas son ambition. "Dans le futur, et je ne dis pas que cela va arriver maintenant, ce que je veux un jour, c'est entraîner la sélection nationale. On verra bien", déclarait-il encore le 12 octobre dernier.

Have you ever gotten up for a full day's work in a haunted coal mine and thought, "Boy, I really hope that bird in a cage doesn't stop singing and doom us all"? No? Then you clearly weren't with the RPGBOT crew in Part 2 of our Old Gods of Appalachia charity stream—where coal dust has claws, headlamps are your best friend, and it turns out you can get shot-in-the-foot vibes without ever firing a gun. Buckle up, y'all. Things are getting deep, dark, and very dusty. Support MD Anderson Cancer Research Before we go further, remember: this campaign was part of a live charity event supporting MD Anderson Cancer Center, one of the top cancer hospitals in the world. Their mission is simple but critical: end cancer for patients everywhere through advanced research, treatment, and compassionate care. You can still make a difference. Donate today at https://mdanderson.donordrive.com/participants/9351 — every dollar helps bring hope, healing, and lifesaving treatment to real people in the fight for their lives. Previously, on the RPGBOT charity stream: Jessie and Isaiah arrived in Williams Holler—an Appalachian company town where coal mine doom meets fire-eyed-almost-deer and fatal sermons about salvation through suffering. After a run-in with a not-deer and a meet-and-greet with Mister T and his questionable Applejack theology, our heroes found themselves deep in the mines for mandatory community service, hammering rocks for redemption. Episode 2 picks up right where we left off: with moonshiner chaos, clumsy pickaxe injuries, Tommyknocker rituals, and a collapsing mine shaft that proves this town is as deadly belowground as it is above. In this episode of the RPGBOT Podcast, the gang digs deeper into Old Gods of Appalachia—both narratively and literally—as they're sent into the bowels of the Williams Holler coal mine to "earn their keep" under the watchful eye of foreman Josh CC. Join Jessie and Isaiah as they: Learn about Tommyknockers—ghostly Appalachian mine spirits who love pennies and hate eye contact. Perform citation-needed rituals involving canaries, fish bits, and whispered thanks. Fail basic pickaxe maneuvers (looking at you, Isaiah) and experience the dark gift of GM intrusions, brought to you by generous donors. Discover strange, ancient artifacts deep underground—hint: they might belong to the town's ominous apple orchard daughter. Encounter a creature that definitely isn't a dog made of coal and bad vibes. Try desperately to outrun physics, collapse, and tiny angry men with stone axes through lightless tunnels. All while raising money for MD Anderson Cancer Research, whose work helps real people—unlike some podcast characters we could name. Key Takeaways Horror is better underground: Claustrophobic tunnels, unstable lanterns, and monster-dust dogs? That's premium Appalachian fear. Cypher System shines in survival tension: Speed and might rolls build both narrative and actual sweat. Tommyknockers are the coal miner's cryptid: They warn you with knocks—if you leave them snacks and don't embarrass them. GM intrusions are extra spicy during charity games: The more you donate, the more you make the players quietly panic. Jessie can shoot, quip, and pull people out of holes: The perfect outlaw protagonist energy. This mine is getting worse by the minute: Strange artifacts, broken elevators, dead canaries? It's all very "maybe we leave now." Basket of weird fruit: The orchard, Mr. T, and a thing calling itself "the green" are part of a cosmic tug-of-war that's barely begun. Thank You to the Old Gods and Monte Cook A huge thank-you to Steve Shell, Cam Collins, and the DeepNerd Media team for creating the masterwork that is Old Gods of Appalachia. Their audio drama is the gold standard of Appalachian horror storytelling—and the Old Gods of Appalachia Roleplaying Game, built on Monte Cook Games' Cypher System, brings that dread to your table with terrifying finesse.

Perform citation-needed rituals involving canaries, fish bits, and whispered thanks. Fail basic pickaxe maneuvers (looking at you, Isaiah) and experience the dark gift of GM intrusions, brought to you by generous donors. Discover strange, ancient artifacts deep underground—hint: they might belong to the town's ominous apple orchard daughter. Encounter a creature that definitely isn't a dog made of coal and bad vibes. Try desperately to outrun physics, collapse, and tiny angry men with stone axes through lightless tunnels. All while raising money for MD Anderson Cancer Research, whose work helps real people—unlike some podcast characters we could name. Key Takeaways Horror is better underground: Claustrophobic tunnels, unstable lanterns, and monster-dust dogs? That's premium Appalachian fear. Cypher System shines in survival tension: Speed and might rolls build both narrative and actual sweat. Tommyknockers are the coal miner's cryptid: They warn you with knocks—if you leave them snacks and don't embarrass them. GM intrusions are extra spicy during charity games: The more you donate, the more you make the players quietly panic. Jessie can shoot, quip, and pull people out of holes: The perfect outlaw protagonist energy. This mine is getting worse by the minute: Strange artifacts, broken elevators, dead canaries? It's all very "maybe we leave now." Basket of weird fruit: The orchard, Mr. T, and a thing calling itself "the green" are part of a cosmic tug-of-war that's barely begun. Thank You to the Old Gods and Monte Cook A huge thank-you to Steve Shell, Cam Collins, and the DeepNerd Media team for creating the masterwork that is Old Gods of Appalachia. Their audio drama is the gold standard of Appalachian horror storytelling—and the Old Gods of Appalachia Roleplaying Game, built on Monte Cook Games' Cypher System, brings that dread to your table with terrifying finesse.

Have you ever stared at your D&D character sheet, wondering if you picked the right fighting style, and suddenly felt like someone out there was judging you? That's because they were—and it was your DM, silently counting how many times you could've picked Defense instead of Dueling. But worry not, because in this episode, we're unlocking your character's true martial potential faster than a fighter can Action Surge after a long rest. Join the RPGBOT Patreon Want to hear Tyler, Randall, and Ash critique character builds in real-time, or maybe even share your hottest takes live? Join the RPGBOT Patreon today. You'll get ad-free episodes, access to live recordings, bonus content, and maybe even the secret to getting the most out of the Two-Weapon Fighting style without regretting your life choices. Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts take a deep dive into fighting styles in Dungeons & Dragons, unpacking how these choices can optimize your martial build and define your character's combat identity. They explore the classic styles available to Fighters, Rangers, and Paladins, and evaluate how each style synergizes with class features, feats, and weapon choices—especially in the new landscape of D&D 2024. They analyze popular choices like Dueling, Great Weapon Fighting, Archery, Defense, and why Protection either makes you the party MVP or the target of everyone's complaints. Along the way, they offer practical advice on build planning, weapon synergies, narrative flavor, and how fighting styles impact your role in combat and the party dynamic. Whether you're building a min-maxed Fighter, a divine smiting machine Paladin, or a bow-wielding Ranger with dreams of Legolas-tier accuracy, this episode arms you with the knowledge to bring out your character's best in the battlefield. Key Takeaways Fighting styles are a crucial decision point for martial characters like Fighters, Paladins, and Rangers in Dungeons & Dragons, defining your combat specialty. Different styles fit different builds and playstyles. Archery is amazing for ranged builds, while Dueling and Great Weapon Fighting shine for melee smiters and strikers. Some fighting styles synergize with specific feats or class features, especially in D&D 2024 where changes may affect how much value you get from styles like Two-Weapon Fighting. Optimization matters—Defense may look boring, but +1 AC goes a long way in making your character survivable, especially at low levels. Don't forget the roleplaying opportunities: the story behind your fighting style can give your character depth beyond combat efficiency. Loved this conversation about martial mastery? Like and subscribe to the RPGBOT.Podcast on your favorite podcast platform to stay up to date with the latest D&D strategy, character building tips, and tabletop RPG goodness. And remember—your build matters, but listening to this podcast might just give you the edge you need to crit in both combat and creativity.

Ever wondered what happens when you cross a high-fantasy campaign setting, a Louisiana bayou, and a magical eel with moonshine for blood? The RPGBOT crew found out the hard way when they sat down with Drew Foulke, the founder of Norse Foundry and Hexed Publishing, to talk about his new system-agnostic roleplaying world: Titanskeep. It's a world where gods and titans feud like divorced parents with cosmic custody issues, and adventurers are just trying to survive long enough to figure out whether the lich-titan is actually the good guy.

Get early access to recordings, bonus discussions, and the chance to listen live as Tyler, Randall, and Ash interview RPG creators like Drew Foulke, Keith Baker, and more. Your support helps keep the dice rolling (and the Billy Eels wiggling). Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, hosts Randall James, Tyler Kamstra, and Ash Ely sit down with Drew Foulke, founder of Norse Foundry and Hexed Publishing, to explore the upcoming Titanskeep campaign setting — a high-fantasy, system-agnostic world designed for Dungeons & Dragons (5e/2024), Pathfinder 2e, and beyond. Titanskeep, set in the living world of Kalidor, pits gods against titans in a divine power struggle that reshapes the world's fate. Players can join guilds, align with deities, or swear loyalty to mighty titans — and every choice changes the ongoing narrative. Built to support convention-based raid events, local game store play, and ongoing modular releases, Titanskeep promises a living campaign ecosystem that evolves through player decisions. Drew discusses Hexed Publishing's approach to system-agnostic design, collaboration with industry legends like Ed Greenwood, Keith Baker, B. Dave Walters, and Deven Rue, and his goal of producing a constantly supported RPG world rather than a one-and-done campaign book. Tyler shares his own experience designing monsters for the Houdan region, a New Orleans-meets-Venice bayou crawling with illusion-magic, giant bugs, and the now-legendary Billy Eel — complete with random mutations and "moonshine in its veins." Throughout the conversation, the hosts and Drew dive into: The challenge of creating a 5e and Pathfinder 2e compatible RPG setting. The use of guild systems, living world events, and player-driven raids. The design philosophy of Norse Foundry: making dice and props that players actually use. The plan for Titanskeep's Kickstarter (October 2026), free Patreon content, and playtesting rewards. The future of Hexed Publishing, from Gazetteers to modular adventure paths, and how community playtesting shapes their development. Key Takeaways System-Agnostic Design: Titanskeep bridges 5e, 2024 D&D, and Pathfinder 2e, with future support for systems like Daggerheart, Savage Worlds, and Fate. High Fantasy, Low Tech: Magic drives Titanskeep's world; technology exists only where titans allow it. Living World Structure: Players influence world events through guilds, deities, and Titan allegiance — shaping global outcomes. Convention Integration: The setting includes a raid-style convention system, where multiple tables impact shared encounters and titanic battles. Collaborative Worldbuilding: Drew enlisted industry veterans like Ed Greenwood, Keith Baker, B. Dave Walters, Jay Foster, Deven Rue, and Crystal Sully. Player Rewards: Free adventures, Patreon-exclusive ancestries, and physical props (like keys, pins, and holy symbols) connect the digital world to your table. The Billy Eel Legacy: A chaotic creature from the Houdan region, proof that player imagination and worldbuilding can get delightfully weird. Ongoing Support: Titanskeep isn't a single book — it's a long-term evolving campaign world with modules, Gazetteers, and live play updates. Community-Driven Playtesting: Players providing feedback can win $50 Norse Foundry gift cards. Kickstarter 2026: The official launch of Titanskeep will include free metal D20s for backers from the Patreon or newsletter list.

You know that moment when your players spend ten minutes searching a room, roll a 5, and you sigh before saying, "You find… nothing"? Yeah, we're done with that. In this episode, the RPGBOT crew grabs the Dungeon Master's Guide by the binding and asks the real questions: Why are searches so boring, and why do your players keep looting every chair leg like it's the Ark of the Covenant? It's time to make treasure exciting again — and maybe throw in a cursed spoon or two for good measure. Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts dive into using random treasure and how to make it fun. Not ready for the burden of homebrewing every magical baubel the players find? Still want treasure to feel cool and exciting instead of handing out 2d4 silver pieces? Grab a random treasure table and listen in. They cover: How to curate random treasures so rewards feel tailored, not tacked on. Procedural generation and OSR-style loot tables for DMs who want surprise without chaos. The psychology of reward design—why a potion of healing can feel more exciting than a +1 sword. How Pathfinder 2e's treasure parcel system solves common D&D loot issues. Turning random loot into story hooks that feed back into your worldbuilding. Whether you're running a gritty hexcrawl, a dungeon delve, or a modern urban fantasy, you'll walk away with tools to hoard of treasure hoards and make every treasure feel earned. Key Takeaways Roll less, describe more. Replace meaningless Perception checks with interactive exploration and sensory clues. Random doesn't mean meaningless. Curate your treasure tables around your campaign's themes. Passive Perception is your pacing tool. Use it to keep exploration snappy without robbing players of agency. Economy matters. Gold, consumables, and downtime rewards all affect campaign health. Player engagement > item rarity. Surprise players with creativity, not just loot value. Procedural tools save prep time. Random tables and generators can be incredible when you understand their purpose. Reward discovery, not just dice. Make your players feel clever when they find something hidden — even if you planned it all along. If you've ever caught yourself saying "You find nothing," it's time to level up your DM game.

Whether you're running a gritty hexcrawl, a dungeon delve, or a modern urban fantasy, you'll walk away with tools to hoard of treasure hoards and make every treasure feel earned. Key Takeaways Roll less, describe more. Replace meaningless Perception checks with interactive exploration and sensory clues. Random doesn't mean meaningless. Curate your treasure tables around your campaign's themes. Passive Perception is your pacing tool. Use it to keep exploration snappy without robbing players of agency. Economy matters. Gold, consumables, and downtime rewards all affect campaign health. Player engagement > item rarity. Surprise players with creativity, not just loot value. Procedural tools save prep time. Random tables and generators can be incredible when you understand their purpose. Reward discovery, not just dice. Make your players feel clever when they find something hidden — even if you planned it all along. If you've ever caught yourself saying "You find nothing," it's time to level up your DM game.

Ever had that moment when you realize you've become the "veteran adventurer" in your own party? The RPGBOT crew sure has. In this episode, we channel that energy straight into the Unearthed Arcana Arcane Subclasses, dissecting the Enchanter, Necromancer, and Transmuter Wizards from D&D 2024. Expect laughter, existential dread, and a healthy dose of spell slot math as we ask the real question: Can Wizards of the Coast enchant us again, or are we just too old for these saving throws? Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts continue their deep dive into the Unearthed Arcana Arcane Subclasses playtest for Dungeons and Dragons (D&D 2024). They explore the evolution of several wizard subclasses: the Enchanter Wizard, Necromancer Wizard, and Transmuter Wizard, and analyze how these changes impact gameplay mechanics, class balance, and overall player experience. The discussion begins on a lighthearted note, as the hosts reflect on aging and nostalgia through stories about concerts and generational shifts in music. This leads naturally into a conversation about how nostalgia and design evolution shape our experiences with tabletop RPGs like D&D. From there, the hosts dig into the details of the Unearthed Arcana wizard subclasses: The Enchanter Wizard's new enchantment mechanics spark a conversation about free will, consent, and how these ethical themes play out in gameplay. The Necromancer Wizard gets a significant rework, with temporary hit points for undead minions, exploding skeleton mechanics, and other game design improvements that enhance tactical and thematic play. The Transmuter Wizard's Transmuter Stone, polymorph mechanics, and restoration spells see meaningful updates that make the subclass more versatile and rewarding to play. Throughout the episode, the hosts consider the balance between fun and mechanics, chain reaction gameplay, and hit dice damage calculations, all while highlighting how Wizards of the Coast is actively listening to player feedback in shaping the upcoming D&D 2024 rules. If you love D&D class analysis, wizard subclass deep dives, and thoughtful conversations about game design and player engagement, this episode of the RPGBOT Podcast is a must-listen. Key Takeaways Feeling nostalgic? The hosts open with a candid reflection on aging, concerts, and how nostalgia connects to our love of gaming. The Enchanter Wizard subclass has evolved to offer richer roleplay opportunities and more engaging mechanics—but not without debate around split enchantment and ethical implications. The Necromancer Wizard gains thematic depth with undead minion improvements, temporary hit points, and a delightfully destructive exploding undead mechanic. The Transmuter Wizard subclass sees significant improvements—its Transmuter Stone now provides more tactical flexibility, while polymorph and restoration mechanics enhance its role in party support. Hit dice and chain reaction gameplay significantly affect how damage and encounters unfold, underscoring the importance of thoughtful class balancing. The Unearthed Arcana playtest demonstrates Wizards of the Coast's responsiveness to player feedback and commitment to refining D&D 2024 subclass design. The hosts highlight that balancing fun vs. optimization remains key to an enjoyable Dungeons and Dragons experience. Ultimately, this discussion celebrates both nostalgia and innovation in tabletop RPG design, showing how evolving rules can breathe new life into classic classes.

Neobanks might be the quiet coordination hack that makes Visa optional. David sits down with Frax's Sam Kazemian to map the new payment stack: why cards today settle over Visa yet still onboard users into stablecoins, how Frax USD (payments) pairs with sFRAX USD (savings), and why Ethereum remains the “savings/issuance” base while specialized payment chains battle for flows. Sam unpacks Frax's white-label issuance strategy and RWA plumbing, shares an institutional DD story that highlights reliability over hype, and lays out the metrics that actually matter—card acceptance, bank deposits, chain coverage, and real-world spend. If you're tracking how stablecoins, neobanks, and RWAs converge into an on-chain economy, this one connects the pipes. ---

Nothing says Dungeons & Dragons like a heated debate over baseball stats and spell slots. Before diving into Unearthed Arcana updates, the RPGBOT crew takes a wild detour through the world of snacks, sports, and sore losers. Tyler shows off his prized Seattle Sounders memorabilia, Ash relives the heartbreak of a bad inning, and Randall celebrates the Cubs like they just crit a dragon. Then, in true RPGBOT fashion, the conversation magically transforms into an analysis of the Arcane Archer subclass—because when life throws curveballs, we cast Magic Missile. Help Creators Roll a Natural 20 Hey listeners! Before we start slinging arrows and conjuring elementals, remember: your ratings and reviews are the Inspiration Points of podcasting. Whether on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen, take a moment to rate, review, and share RPGBOT.Podcast. Every five-star review powers our continued quest for knowledge, chaos, and crunchy D&D rules analysis. And yes, Randall's giving away loot—because adventurers who leave reviews always find better treasure. Show Notes In this episode, the RPGBOT crew slides from sports talk to spellcraft in record time. After sharing their favorite baseball rivalries—including Red Sox vs. Yankees heartbreaks and the Cubs' long-awaited triumph—they pitch a new conversation: Dungeons & Dragons Unearthed Arcana updates for Arcane Archer, Tattooed Warrior, and Conjurer Wizard. The hosts analyze the Arcane Archer subclass redesign, exploring how ranged attacks now interact with spells and how the subclass feels more satisfying to play in D&D 5e. They then unpack the Tattooed Warrior—a mystical martial archetype that trades spellcasting for permanent magical ink, bringing new abilities like Beast Tattoos and Celestial Tattoos into play. Finally, they summon up the Conjurer Wizard subclass, praising the new Durable Summons and Splintered Summons mechanics that make conjuration magic both tactical and terrifying. The group discusses the ongoing struggle for martial class balance in D&D 5e, the Weapon Mastery updates coming in 2024, and the limitations of customization in tabletop RPGs compared to other systems. Despite the in-depth mechanics, the humor never fades—Tyler laments his dice luck, Ash declares summoning “a sport,” and Randall insists that snacks are the foundation of all creative builds. Key Takeaways The Arcane Archer Unearthed Arcana update finally gives martial ranged classes something to cheer about. Tattooed Warrior's redesign focuses on unique, flavorful combat options without relying on spells. Conjurer Wizard subclass updates—especially Durable Summons and Splintered Summons—enhance battlefield control and flexibility. Martial vs. spellcaster balance remains a point of debate, though Weapon Mastery in 2024 shows promise. Customization in D&D 5e is still more limited than in systems like Pathfinder 2e or Starfinder 2e. Listener reviews and engagement are vital to helping independent RPG podcasts thrive. The RPGBOT crew proves that humor, rivalry, and camaraderie make even a mechanics-heavy discussion worth the listen. “Get in the Game” Next time you're watching the big game, grab your dice bag. Draft your own fantasy team of Arcane Archers, Tattooed Warriors, and Conjurer Wizards—because the only thing better than a walk-off home run is landing a critical hit from 600 feet away. Play ball, roll initiative, and remember: no one likes a foul ball… unless it's a fireball. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Cold Open It's the end of the world as we know it—and the party's still arguing about who's carrying the rations. In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we prepare for the Fall of Humanity the only way we know how: by taking notes, rolling dice, and arguing about whose apocalypse prep list includes “50 feet of rope” and whose just says “vibes.” Whether your campaign ends with zombies, eldritch gods, or a total collapse of civilization, we're here to help you face the end times like true heroes—confused, underprepared, and hilariously optimistic. The RPGBOT.net Christmast Gift Recommendation Are Coming! Fall is in the air, and that means two things: pumpkin spice and impending doom in your campaign notes. But before the frost settles and your dice freeze in place, don't forget—the annual RPGBOT.net Christmas Gift Recommendations are just around the corner. We've scoured the multiverse to find the best gifts for your favorite gamer, GM, and dice-hoarding friend, so keep an eye on RPGBOT.net for the upcoming list! Show Notes In this episode, the RPGBOT crew explores how to prepare for the fall of humanity in tabletop RPGs—and how to do it with style, panic, and at least one functioning flashlight. We dive into post-apocalyptic campaign design, survival mechanics, and how to create compelling worldbuilding after the apocalypse that still leaves room for hope, laughter, and player chaos. We discuss how to run post-apocalyptic campaigns in D&D, Pathfinder, or other TTRPG systems, how to integrate survival challenges and resource scarcity into storytelling, and how to design meaningful player choices in settings where civilization has completely collapsed. Expect dark humor, dramatic flair, and at least one debate about whether your cleric can purify canned beans. This episode is packed with game master advice on creating factions, managing tone in grimdark worlds, and finding emotional balance between despair and determination. We'll also talk about how to keep your players invested in a setting that's literally falling apart around them—because even after the world ends, you still need teamwork, trust, and a good initiative roll. Topics Covered: How to run post-apocalyptic campaigns in D&D or Pathfinder Preparing players for civilization collapse and survival challenges Building believable factions after the fall of humanity Integrating scarcity, resource management, and desperation into storytelling Balancing tone and tension in grimdark and survival RPGs Creating hope and emotional stakes in despair-driven worlds Using worldbuilding to reinforce narrative consequences Why the end of the world is the perfect time to make new friends (and enemies) Key Takeaways Survival is more than hit points. Post-apocalyptic storytelling shines when moral dilemmas and emotional endurance matter as much as physical survival. Factions are the new nations. The fall of humanity gives rise to new power structures, ideologies, and conflicts that define your worldbuilding. Hope matters. Even in despair-driven worlds, small acts of kindness or faith can make your campaign unforgettable. Tone is everything. Knowing when to inject humor—or withhold it—keeps players engaged and the story grounded. Scarcity drives creativity. Limiting resources forces inventive problem-solving and adds depth to gameplay. Player agency is crucial. The choices your characters make when everything is lost reveal who they truly are. And While You're Thinking About Gifts! While you're thinking about the perfect gifts for your favorite gamers, don't overlook Randall's novella Malecon—a thoughtful, evocative story about identity, reflection, and finding light in the darkness. It's the perfect stocking stuffer for anyone who loves a good narrative arc—and it pairs nicely with a warm drink and the quiet hum of a dying generator. Pick up Malecon today, and remind yourself that even after the end of the world, good stories endure.

What happens when Dungeons & Dragons decides to give psionics another shot? The RPGBOT.Podcast dives headfirst into the Unearthed Arcana Psion Update—an experiment in psychic power, spell mechanics, and a whole lot of questionable design choices. From the disappointing Life Inversion Field to the glorious chaos of Psychic Scream, the crew breaks down what works, what doesn't, and what might just melt your brain.

Patreon supporters help shape the future of RPGBOT's deep dives into D&D, Pathfinder, and other TTRPG systems. Show Notes In this second half of the RPGBOT.Podcast review of Wizards of the Coast's Unearthed Arcana Psion Update, the hosts dissect the expanded spell list and the mechanics that define the psionic experience. The conversation begins with casual banter—complete with birthday wishes for Randall's mom—before diving deep into D&D's psychic frontier. Each spell gets the RPGBOT treatment, with careful attention to balance, design, and playability. The hosts critique heavy hitters like Abidalzim's Horrid Wilting, explore new mechanics in Bleeding Darkness and Ectoplasmic Trail, and question whether Ego Whip deserves a spot in anyone's spellbook. They also highlight bright spots like Enemies Abound and Intellect Fortress, praising their clarity and efficiency. The discussion doesn't shy away from tough critiques—Life Inversion Field and Life Siphon both fall flat, while the nerf to Mental Prison earns collective groans. Yet, redemption arrives in the form of Psionic Blast and Psychic Scream, which the hosts hail as excellent examples of balanced, high-impact design. Along the way, they examine how intelligence saving throws affect game balance, the evolution of psionics in D&D 5e, and the potential for homebrew fixes. Whether you're a dungeon master looking to integrate psionics or a player hunting for the next big spell combo, this episode offers insight, humor, and deep-cut analysis that only RPGBOT can deliver. Key Takeaways Abidalzim's Horrid Wilting remains underwhelming, suffering from outdated mechanics. Bleeding Darkness and Ectoplasmic Trail raise confusion about their effects and visuals. Ego Whip is compared to Silvery Barbs but feels weaker in execution. Enemies Abound and Intellect Fortress stand out as clear, effective designs. Life Inversion Field and Life Siphon fail to live up to their thematic potential. Mental Prison has been toned down, losing much of its utility. Psionic Blast and Psychic Scream emerge as the strongest new spells. Rolotham's Psychic Lance remains a problematic favorite for DMs. Healing spells in combat continue to suffer from low efficiency. Intelligence saving throws risk skewing spell balance toward niche builds. Telekinetic Crush introduces a new dynamic for psychic damage dealers. The hosts explore spell synergy and suggest tweaks to improve design consistency across psionic abilities. Buy Keith Amman's New Book!

From balancing narrative structure and GM adaptability to handling willpower, character death, and supernatural threats, the hosts share insights from their own gameplay experiences.

You know that moment when your players say, “We want to be the bad guys”? Yeah, this is the episode where we let them. Pull up your black cloaks, pour a glass of something red (preferably not from the paladin), and join us as we wander into the mists of the Domains of Dread—where even your dice fear to roll. Spooktober Returns! It's Spooktober on the RPGBOT.Podcast, and the shadows are thick with story hooks! Whether you're brewing up your own Ravenloft horror campaign or just love watching your players question their morality, we've got the perfect tricks and treats for your tabletop this season. Catch all Spooktober episodes wherever you listen to podcasts, and be sure to leave us a review—if you dare. Show Notes In this chilling episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts descend into the Domains of Dread, exploring what it takes to create a Dungeons & Dragons campaign centered on irredeemably evil characters. From the tortured moors of Ravenloft to homebrewed horror realms, they discuss how to balance story tension, sustain player engagement, and manage moral complexity in games that venture beyond good and evil. Topics include: Campaign Design for Evil Characters – Building motivation and narrative cohesion for villainous parties without descending into chaos. Moral Ambiguity in RPGs – Turning “evil” from caricature into compelling character arcs. The Art of Gothic Horror – Using atmosphere, pacing, and dread to make fear part of the gameplay loop. Domains of Dread in 5e – Exploring Ravenloft, the Darklords, and what makes each domain a reflection of its master's sin. Fear and Power Dynamics – Leveraging fear mechanics and temptation systems to reinforce the campaign's tone. Session Zero for Evil Campaigns – Establishing safety tools and boundaries before diving into depravity. The discussion blends humor, horror, and hard-earned DM wisdom—making this an essential listen for anyone who's ever wondered what would happen if their party actually joined Strahd's HR department. Key Takeaways Evil Doesn't Mean Chaotic – The most compelling villains have goals, loyalties, and internal logic; chaos for chaos' sake burns out fast. Atmosphere Is a Mechanic – In horror RPGs, tone-setting is as crucial as initiative rolls. Lighting, music, and description carry mechanical weight. Safety Tools Are Sacred – Lines and veils aren't optional—they're essential in games exploring darkness and corruption. The World Reflects the Villains – Domains of Dread are metaphors in motion; the land mirrors its Darklord's sins and failures. Power Has a Cost – The higher your characters climb, the closer they draw to their own damnation. Let Players Build the Horror – Player backstories, vices, and obsessions fuel the dread better than any monster stat block. Evil Campaigns Need Boundaries – Trust, tone, and transparency keep the horror immersive, not harmful. Visit the Domains of the Living If this episode sent a chill down your spine (and it should have), then do something warm: visit RPGBOT.net for guides, tools, and advice to make your next horror campaign unforgettable. And when you're done weaving nightmares, tell your friends about the RPGBOT.Podcast—because nothing spreads fear like word of mouth. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Welcome to Supply Lines, a running feature here on TMP where the dorks will be looking at resource management in games. What games? All games, because Chewie is convinced that they're all just different styles of resource management dressed up in genre pants. This is the second Supply Lines episode, after starting with Magic: The Gathering (for obvious reasons) in episode 723. For this one we decided to go to one of the most hardcore examples of resource management in games, Dungeons & Dragons! Chewie has been playing Baldur's Gate 3 and the other dorks actually play D&D, so they've all got stuff to say. This episode focuses on all the resources you have to manage for character creation, which is surprisingly a lot to the point it can be absolutely overwhelming to new players. We'll discuss every aspect of it we can think of and cover why the limitations and restrictions are good actually. Along the way we'll get sidetracked several times, as is our wont. Let us know what's your favorite part of character creation, and yes, tell us all about your favorite character you've ever made. Just this once we'll allow it.

Somewhere between the high deserts of New Mexico and the psychic wastelands of Unearthed Arcana, the RPGBOT crew discovered two great truths: Albuquerque has better tacos than Los Angeles, and psionics might finally make sense in Dungeons & Dragons. We know some of you thought the Psion episode was lost forever (vanished into the Astral Plane or eaten by a mind flayer), but good news! The missing RPGBOT.Podcast episode on the Psion Unearthed Arcana has been recovered and is now live on your favorite podcatcher. Catch up and join the conversation before your DM rewrites the subclass again. Show Notes In this episode, the RPGBOT.Podcast team takes a psychic deep dive into the latest Unearthed Arcana update to the Psion class for Dungeons & Dragons. Between discussions of New Mexico's high desert climate, Albuquerque's local cuisine, and Taos skiing, the crew explores how psionics, multiclassing, and new subclass mechanics are reshaping D&D's design space. Listeners will hear insights on how Wizards of the Coast reworked the Scion (now Psion) class, making psionic energy and subclass features more flexible and accessible. From the Metamorph's Fleshweaver feature to the Psychonetic's telekinesis and the Telepath's support abilities, the team analyzes gameplay impact, balance, and flavor. The discussion also touches on the rebalancing of level 20 features, improvements to psionic spellcasting, and how multiclassing interacts with hit dice mechanics. As always, the hosts bring humor, personal stories, and some surprising local insight from their rediscovery of Albuquerque's food culture—because apparently, “better tacos” is a universal truth worth multiclassing for. Key Takeaways Unearthed Arcana brings a refined Psion to D&D, improving class balance, subclass diversity, and psionic flavor. Psionic energy mechanics now scale smoothly across levels and subclass paths. The Metamorph subclass gains major survivability boosts with its Fleshweaver feature. The Psychonetic subclass emphasizes mobility, telekinesis, and damage versatility. The Telepath subclass leans into party support, battlefield control, and communication. Level 20 features expand psionic dice and late-game impact without overwhelming balance. Multiclassing with Psion no longer punishes hit dice mechanics, making hybrid builds more viable. New Mexico's food culture, from Albuquerque green chile to Taos tacos, inspires reflection on community and quality—much like balanced game design. Listener engagement continues to be key: reviews and ratings help keep RPGBOT's brainwaves strong. Wizards of the Coast's open development process hints at more innovative subclasses and psionic expansions ahead. Visit the Land of Enchantment If this episode left your mind buzzing like a psychic storm, channel that energy into a trip to the beautiful state of New Mexico. Explore the ski slopes of Taos, savor Albuquerque's legendary tacos, and discover why the Land of Enchantment is the perfect place to rest, recharge, and maybe even roll a few dice under the desert stars. We invite the State of New Mexico to sponsor the RPGBOT.Podcast and help us share the Land of Enchantment's stunning landscapes, vibrant food culture, and adventurous spirit with tabletop gamers around the world.

US Navy SEAL's Alcoholism and Recovery: Overcoming Moral Injury and Finding Life After the Teams in Virginia. Dr. Tony Dice's life reads like a movie script, except the hero's greatest battle wasn't on a battlefield, but within himself. A veteran U.S. Navy SEAL, firefighter, and paramedic, Dice once lived by the warrior's code: strength, resilience, and mission above all. But beneath that armor, the wounds, both seen and unseen, began to surface. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, is available for free on their website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and many other podcast platforms. “I blew up my life with alcohol and drugs because I didn't know how to deal with the trauma,” Dice admitted. “When you come home, the mission changes, but nobody teaches you how to survive that part.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. The U.S. Navy SEALs, short for Sea, Air, and Land Teams, are the Navy's elite special operations force. They're handpicked and trained to perform the most dangerous missions in the world: direct action, counter-terrorism, and reconnaissance behind enemy lines. Roughly 2,700 SEALs serve across ten active teams, carrying on a legacy that began in World War II with the Amphibious Scouts and Raiders, formed in Little Creek, Virginia. Look for supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . For Dice, becoming a SEAL was the fulfillment of a lifelong dream that he didn't how that he was looking for. But after leaving the Teams, he faced a reality he wasn't prepared for, moral injury, addiction, and the long road to recovery. US Navy SEAL's Alcoholism and Recovery: Overcoming Moral Injury and Finding Life After the Teams in Virginia. Moral Injury: The Wound Beneath the Surface While PTSD is often discussed in the context of combat trauma, moral injury is a quieter, deeper wound. It occurs when someone experiences or witnesses events that violate their personal moral beliefs, a sense of having crossed lines that can't be uncrossed. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. “You train to do the impossible,” Dice explained. “But what nobody prepares you for is the guilt, the loss, or the grief that follows. That's what moral injury is, it's a wound to the soul.” For years, alcohol and drugs became Dice's way of coping. The same discipline and intensity that made him a great operator turned against him in addiction. He calls that time “a self-destruction mission I didn't even see happening.” Rebuilding: Life After the Teams in Virginia Dr. Dice eventually sought help, and found a new purpose. Through counseling, recovery, and reflection, he discovered that his mission wasn't over. It had simply changed. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Based in Virginia, Dice works to help veterans, first responders, and law enforcement officers confront trauma and rebuild their lives. Alongside friend Scott Bishop, he co-founded Bishop and Dice Defense LLC, a company built on two pillars: behavioral health and defense innovation. US Navy SEAL's Alcoholism and Recovery: Overcoming Moral Injury and Finding Life After the Teams in Virginia. “We wanted to create something that serves both the mind and the body,” Dice said. “Our operators and first responders need armor, not just for the fight, but for the recovery.” The Mission of Bishop and Dice Defense Bishop and Dice Defense provides both behavioral health services and mission-critical protective solutions for the U.S. military, federal agencies, and first responders. Their approach is culturally competent and trauma-informed, meaning every clinician understands the realities of military and law enforcement life, because they've lived it themselves. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Each team member at B&DD has a military, spec-war, or law enforcement background, bringing authenticity and credibility to every counseling session. “Our clients often distrust support systems,” Dice explained. “They're afraid getting help will hurt their careers. That's why we created a space where they can connect, trust, and start to heal.” US Navy SEAL's Alcoholism and Recovery: Overcoming Moral Injury and Finding Life After the Teams in Virginia. The company's dual focus, mental defense and physical defense, reflects a belief that healing and protection go hand in hand. Telling the Story: Podcast, Social Media, and a Book on the Way Dr. Dice has also taken his message public. Through the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show' Facebook, Instagram, their website and podcast on Apple and Spotify, he's creating open conversations about addiction, moral injury, and life after the Teams. His content combines personal storytelling with practical advice and emotional honesty, a combination that resonates deeply with veterans and first responders alike. Don't miss this episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast.  His upcoming book, set to be released soon, will expand on his journey from destruction to purpose, offering a raw, real look at recovery through the lens of someone who has lived both extremes. From Survival to Service Dr. Tony Dice's story isn't just about survival, it's about transformation. It's proof that recovery isn't the end of service, but a continuation of it. US Navy SEAL's Alcoholism and Recovery: Overcoming Moral Injury and Finding Life After the Teams in Virginia. “Being a SEAL taught me how to fight,” Dice said. “Recovery taught me how to live.” Today, through Bishop & Dice Defense, the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, and his growing online presence, Dice continues to lead a mission that matters, helping America's heroes find peace after the war. Be sure to follow the show on their Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, X pages and more. His message is simple but powerful: the fight for recovery is worth winning.

John and Craig invite Aline Brosh McKenna back to celebrate the third anniversary of Scriptnotes. It's a jam-packed, glass-and-a-half of wine, listener-favorite episode. They look at ways to breathe new life into scenes and characters that aren't working, box office journalism and how Hollywood is always dying, scene geography, and the role of emotional intelligence (or EQ) in a writer's career. In our bonus segment for premium members, we have original outtakes from the episode where we look at what changed in the world in our first three years on air, make predictions for what's to come, re-invent Spanx, and of course talk about D&D.
