Hello everyone! This is a late release for October. This is a long episode and I had a lot of audio issues with my microphone, so I apologize in advanced for how awful I sound. This show is all about Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (also know of WFRP) the 2nd Edition. It’s a game that we have all played together here and there, but especially back in college.

Hope you enjoy!

First, Look! We are kinda back on schedule… posting in the month we record in :-P. As of last month, 1d4cast is a year old, so thank you for all of our listeners for giving us encouragement :). This month we go back to our GM Toolkit series and talk about world building. Whether you realize it or not, as a GM/DM/ST, you are always building your game’s world. We hope that the tips, storys, and advice within helps you in the journey :).

Secondly, thanks goes out again to Paul, Henry, and Anthony for joining us!

This month we review a great game called Dead Lands. It is such a great game and it truly deserves more credit :). Hope you enjoy! Feedback is always appreciated :).

*Note* An error was pointed out – we call the Dragon Age RPG a “retroclone” – while we did mean that the system is very consciously old school (which it is), the term “retroclone” actually refers to a specific style of game, which the DA: RPG is NOT.

The term was misused. Our bad!
