I wanted to do something to get us warmed up for the big Tunnels & Trolls mega-review coming up in March, so I'm rolling up a character in real time. We're going old-school with 5th Edition, so get ready for some classic T&T action. Watch as an old-school unlucky stat roll turns my planned Seraphina the Fairy into Clayfoot the Dwarf! I'll go through all the steps: rolling stats, picking a kindred, figuring out combat adds, and grabbing some gear. I'll also be chatting about some of the differences between T&T and D&D – you know, the stuff that makes it unique. Whether you're a T&T pro or have never even heard of it, come hang out and let's make a character together! It's all leading up to that mega-review, so you don't want to miss it.

This episode is a bit of an experiment! I wanted to see if AI could actually create a decent TTRPG campaign introduction, so I put Notebook LM to the test. I uploaded all the details of my campaign setting and let the AI do its thing. In this episode, I'll walk you through the process and share my thoughts on the results. We'll listen to the AI-generated intro in the final 20 minutes. Was it a success? Tune in to find out!

When I posted the first part of the FUDGE RPG Mega-Review, I accidentally left off the Arcane Alienist! So here he is! Sorry about that!

Is D&D YouTube dying? Some YouTubers claim declining viewership is forcing them out. But I believe this is a chance for a resurgence of authentic, community-driven content. I discuss the negative impacts of chasing ad revenue and the rise of production values on the D&D YouTube scene. I encourage YOU to embrace the opportunity to share their own RPG experiences with the world.

I make the case that armor in Tunnels & Trolls is overpowered. I delve into the mechanics of armor in T&T, and offer two examples of why these rules are broken. I also provide some alternative solutions for balancing armor in T&T. #ttrpg #rpg
