This week, Adam and Tiana tackle rebuilding one of the most basic classes in D&D: the Fighter. (After about a half hour of talking about video games.) Join us as we talk through the changes made thus far, and how we want to adjust more as we go.

This week, Adam and Tiana take a look at the reworked character sheet Adam is working on for IP D&D. The goal is to have everything easily accessible and streamlined in a way that makes sense, while keeping the skills and information that are important to the fantasy of the game. How did we do? What you would add or take away?

This week, Adam and Tiana sit down with guest host Dane Filemyr to talk about Adam's rewrite of the Barbarian class. Dane plays Drausken in the streamed Death campaign, who is a multiclass Fighter/Barbarian using Adam's rewrite, so we wanted to get his take on the Barbarian fantasy, how he feels about Adam's rewrite, and whether Barbarian should be a full class at all.

Welcome back from the holiday break, folks! This week, Adam and Tiana sit down to talk about their ambitious project: rewrite D&D to make it more of a passion project than the lackluster thing WOTC gave the world with D&D 2024. We have a lot to unpack and rebuild and discuss; please join us as we dive ever deeper!

This week, Adam and Tiana look back over the year and talk about the lessons learned and the many games played. Time for us to head into hibernation for the rest of the year!

This week, Adam and Tiana talk about Adam's favorite strategy manual: The Art of War by Sun Tzu. We talk about how to use the principles in that book to change the way GMs and players think about their roles in encounters and overall gameplay.

This week, Adam and Tiana talk about upcoming plans in the ongoing Westgate Patron game, where the party is about to start building political alliances within the city. We use that as a springboard to talk about how to set up those sorts of situations for your players, and ways that players can engage within the situations.

This week, Adam and Tiana are feeling TOTALLY NORMAL, NOTHING TO DISCUSS HERE, and talk about what a despot looks like. Dictators and despots can be incredibly intricate TTRPG villains, usable in a number of circumstances ranging from mustache-twirling to "doing the wrong thing for the right reasons."
