We created characters in each one just to see the differences and then played around with them in a few combats. It was very interesting and we discuss the differences between them. In part two we cover a mailbag question about collaboration between the DM and the players when creating the world of a game. Enjoy!

DSA 5 steht am Horizont, Shadowrun 5 schon im Laden, Cthulhu 7 wird langsam mit konkreten Informationen versorgt und D&D Next steht ebenfalls noch aus – und mittendrin? Der Fandom. Michael und Thomas wagen sich auf die Felder, wo in allernächster Zukunft Magieresistenzgegner und Kraftprobenwiderstandstabellenliebhaber, Widersacher eingeschränkten drahtlosen Hackings und Skillstufen-als-Würfel-Beführworter gewohnt hart aufeinandertreffen werden und fragen sich … warum eigentlich?

Hell hath no fury like a dragonborn scorn. Our adventurers decide to seek out the Darkblades who have double-crossed them in our latest episode. Stay turned after the end music to hear an impromptu discussion of DnD Next. You also get the hear the normal nonsense that goes on between episodes. Subscribe on iTunes Subscribe via …
Season 09 Episode 01 Your hosts: Stu, Stork, Jib Tom from Minneapolis emails us about good metagaming, which we discuss. Bullgod discusses accents (how limited travel and a lack of mass electronic communication insulated groups and regions, creating numerous accents) and compliments Stu on his spot-on Retired British Army Officer(tm) accent. Chad writes about his DnD4E game and how to go about bringing a vampire character into the mix. Drayle88 talks about the RPG he's writing and that it's in beta. Tom suggests (in answer to a previous request for a game with DnD flavor without the compexity) DnD Next (ie, 5.0). He finds it to be an improvement on 4E and says combats take much less time.
En este programa hablamos de D&D Next (5º edición), Hombre Lobo de Castronegro/ La Resistencia, The Island; las últimas noticias de El Hobbit, el fin de la saga Crepúsculo y en Si no lo digo reviento: "Hasta el infinto y más allá, Chewie"
https://therpgacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/DTep9.0-1.mp3 Tonights podcast is just a little different. We played our usual weekly game, and when it was over at around 10 pm, we decided to stay at Michael's house and record an episode of Dungeon Talk. Niko and Jared were able to stick around and join us which was fun because I always think the conversation is better when there's more than just me and Michael. The quality is a not as good since it was in Michael's basement and the sound really echoes down there. Also sometimes you will be able to here the furnace running in the background, hahaha. If i didn't think the conversation was that great I probably would have opted to scrap it and just record another one, but I thought there was some really good back and forth going on and good questions too. Some topics we talked about were: What made us want to switch from playing characters and be a DM. Of course we talk about DnD Next and how great we think it is, although Jared offers us some reasons why he enjoys 3.5 more. The differences between building and developing characters in DnD Next compared to past games. Michael asked what advice I might give to someone who was thinking of DMing for the first time. Hope you enjoy, and as always please leave us some comments and suggestions for topics.

https://therpgacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/DTep8-2.mp3 Hello all, Last Saturday, I ran a DnD Next Playtest for my regular gaming group. We had been running a 3.5 game and because we had 3 out of 4 PC's that were non-core classes it would be difficult to switch over. So I decided to run a alternate game that ran side by side of the regular game. The Players were given pre-gen characters. Each were essentially low-level gangsters; Part of the Crimson Claw Crime Syndicate. This session occurred in the city that the PC's were currently heading toward. Zaine, played by Evan, was the crew leader. A human Rogue with a Scavenger Background (House Ruled, as he worked to find lost artifacts in the wasteland north of the city) and the Survivor Speciality. Grexil, played by Niko, was the muscle. A muttant (long story, but my game includes an alien race that took over the world and then left ) fighter with Slayer background and 2-handed weapon specialist (House Rule). Yomi, played by Rob, was a Halfing Rogue with the Bounty Hunter Background and Archer Specialty. The play test went over great. All the players did a fantastic job and wanted to drop the original game and switch over (which makes me happy and sad at the same time). Here is the discussion Evan and I had about this play test the following day. Thanks!!

In this episode the Tome Show family (Sam, Tracy, and Jeff) discusses the announcement about the next "iteration" of the game of Dungeons and Dragons. It's raw, unedited, and unscripted, brought to you by Gamerati and Gamerati TV. This is a topic to be discussed further in the future, but here's our first reactions the night of the announcement. We read many articles for our information...but all of them are linked from (and quoted on) the collection on ENWorld.
