The RPGBOT crew brave technical glitches, angry chasm fiends, and their own questionable tactics in the Stormlight Archive TTRPG—somehow surviving long enough to bond a Shardblade and argue about the rules. Want to roll dice with Ash Ely? You can! Ash is running games right now on StartPlaying.games — sign up to join his tables and bring your own chaos straight to the adventure. Show Notes What happens when a group of seasoned RPG players and podcasters try to explore the Stormlight Archive TTRPG gameplay while also fighting their greatest nemesis: technical difficulties? Chaos, laughter, and some surprisingly good strategy. In this episode, the RPGBOT crew dive into Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere RPG session and tackle everything from collaborative character creation to survival strategies in tabletop campaigns. Along the way, they explore the chasms of Roshar, narrowly avoid becoming lunch for a chasm fiend, and stumble their way into a Shardblade bonding that changes the party forever. This is not just a deep dive into fantasy adventure game mechanics and Cosmere lore, it's also a reminder that sometimes the biggest boss fight is your own internet connection. Expect plenty of table banter, a mix of strategy and combat in Stormlight Archive RPG, and the occasional rules lawyer moment when someone tries to figure out exactly how healing and recovery in RPG combat works mid-fight. If you've ever wanted to know how storytelling through Cosmere role-playing feels when the stakes are survival, or if you just enjoy hearing gamers yell “We did it!” after almost dying in the chasms, this episode is for you. Key Takeaways Technical difficulties are the real BBEG – even the most prepared podcasters get crit-hit by audio gremlins. Collaborative character creation isn't just fun; it sets up all the chaos and heroics that follow. Lore-driven gameplay in fantasy RPGs adds immersion and weight—knowing the world changes how you play it. Chasm fiend encounters in tabletop RPGs are terrifying, hilarious, and an excellent way to test teamwork. Combat in Stormlight Archive RPG is as much about strategy as it is about rolling well. Survival strategies in tabletop campaigns matter—sometimes “run away” is the best spell. Healing and recovery in RPG combat are clutch; without them, the only thing you're bonding with is the afterlife. Storytelling through Cosmere role-playing proves why Sanderson's worlds are so good for the tabletop. Shardblade bonding in role-playing games changes character dynamics—and makes players feel way cooler than they deserve. The unpredictability of RPGs keeps every session fresh, funny, and full of unexpected discoveries. Like what you heard?

This week, we talk about the rise of the global battery industry: its history, key players, raw material struggles, and how China came to dominate it. To do so, I'm joined by Henry Sanderson, author of "Volt Rush: The Winners and Losers in the Race to Go Green." We trace the story of electrification from Volta's early experiments to the supply chains that now shape global power. Sanderson brings decades of reporting to a narrative that reveals China's industrial strategy, the entrepreneurs behind battery giants, and the troubling realities of mining cobalt, nickel, and lithium. Together, we examine how technology, geopolitics, massive wealth, and environmental trade-offs define the future of clean energy.

Can You Survive a Highstorm with Just a Character Sheet and Poor Life Choices? We Tried the Cosmere RPG. Missed an episode? Don't worry—archive episodes of the RPGBOT.Podcast are now available to listen to on YouTube. Whether you're a veteran listener or just discovering us, you can now catch up on every rules breakdown, hot take, and character optimization deep dive. Just search for RPGBOT.Podcast on YouTube and hit subscribe! Show Notes: In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts crack open the covers of Brotherwise Games' Cosmere RPG, diving headfirst into the Stormlight Handbook and World Guide. From spren to highstorms, the episode is packed with crunchy mechanics, deep lore, and just enough existential dread to make Brandon Sanderson proud. The gang begins with a brief height-based tangent (because no TTRPG is complete without weirdly tall characters), before delving into the key mechanical and narrative innovations of the system. Topics include: The Plot Die, a unique mechanic that lets narrative tension escalate like a Shardbearer duel. A look at the Personal Goals system, designed to reward character growth beyond “I punch it harder now.” The complexity curve compared to D&D 5e and Pathfinder—spoiler alert: this one's for the lore nerds and narrative junkies. Character creation as a journey through Roshar's cultures, forms, talents, and Radiant oaths. Magic systems in the Cosmere—ambitious to adapt, but steeped in storytelling potential. The fear of breaking someone else's toys when homebrewing in a tightly structured setting like the Cosmere. From audience engagement to the challenge of niche game design, the episode hits on what makes this RPG exciting, where it might fall flat for some players, and how deeply it leans into the lore-rich worlds of Brandon Sanderson's imagination. Cosmere RPG Way of Kings (affiliate link) Wu Chang RPGBOT.Podcast Episodes CRAFTING THE COSMERE w/ Andrew Fischer and Lydia Suen: Adapting Brandon Sanderson's Fantasy World into an Epic RPG Key Takeaways: The Cosmere RPG is rich in narrative design, rewarding players who invest deeply in character goals and world lore. Understanding the Cosmere is essential—newcomers may feel lost, while superfans will feel right at home. The Plot Die is an innovative mechanic that injects narrative control and surprise into gameplay. The system's mechanics echo other RPGs, but with enough unique twists to stand out. Character progression is closely tied to personal goals, not just combat or loot. The game leans hard into world-building, making Roshar feel alive and immersive. Homebrewing in the Cosmere can be intimidating, especially for GMs concerned about canon. This TTRPG is ideal for dedicated Sanderson fans, narrative-focused groups, and players who want an experience that feels emotionally and thematically weighty.

Candice M. Sanderson “Candice Sanderson takes us on a journey that in times past was reserved only for initiates laboring in the secret confines of mystery schools. But this book demonstrates that what was once available only to a select few, is now happening spontaneously to ordinary (and sometimes reluctant) people. It is a harbinger of things to come. If you want an advance glimpse into the next stage of human evolution, read this book!"   ~ Paul Rademacher, former Executive Director of The Monroe Institute and author of A Spiritual Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe.https://candicesanderson.com/about.html
