I’ve been asked by many over the past few years for a digest-sized edition of the Swords & Wizardry Continual Light rules. With some extra prompting by James Spahn, it is now in the works. In addition to new material by James Spahn, it will have a professional layout and editing, a new color cover we have commissioned to be completed by James Shields, a new logo, new interior art (B&W or color is up for discussion) and possibly more content, depending on feedback from the community. The rules themselves are not changing. This is a new printing with additional material, not a new edition. Epi wrote in about Gamer Entitlement. His insights are interesting and I respond. Also, S&W Continual Light 2nd is coming in September --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/tavernchat/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/tavernchat/support

We return after a long break to our Dresden files games played using the FATE Accelerated rules set by Evil Hat. In this session we have a guest player: Mr. James Spahn (check out his blog here: http://halflingsluck.blogspot.com/), he of many RPG writing credits. Our usual cast returns: Stephen, Jamas, Michael, and Nick. If the announced session numbers throw you off, that's all my fault. Whenever I do a 'session 0' at some point in the numbering scheme I lose track! A further note, we've played a few more sessions after this one and it is unfortunate, but life and work will keep Mr. Spahn from returning to our game sessions for now.
