  • Gaming Perspectives With Saul and Jolene Episode Ten: Gaming with Kids..
    Using our experience with our own son and his friends, we discuss running RPGs for kids of various ages.  We discuss running games for kids as young as four to teenagers.  We talk about how we have succesfully run games at home and at conventions.  How rewarding it can be, running for the youngest of gamers for both the player and the GM.  Gaming with kids is different than running games for adults, and we discuss those differences.
     
         A short list of roleplaying especially written for kids:
       No Thank You, Evil.
       Faery's Tale
       Hero Kids
       First Fable
       Young Centurians 
      and many more..

  • Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene Episode Nine: Modules or Make Your Own Adventure

        In this Episode we discuss using a Module or Making Your Own Adventures.  We talk about the the pros and cons of each type of adventure.  

        Also give a shout out to our listeners Kyle and Jasun who caught Jolene off guard by telling her they liked the podcast.  

        My mistake, I mentioned a GM  book and called it by the wrong name, the real name of the book is "Never Unprepared: The Complete Game Master's Guide to Session Prep" by Phil Vicchione.

  • Gaming Perspectives With Saul and Jolene Episode Seven: The Big 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons Game.

    In this Episode we discuss putting a large multi-table a 5th Editon Dungeons and Dragons game at a local con.  We talk about how the idea came to Jolene.  How she got into trouble by mentioning her idea about a large multi-table game to Saul.  And how Jolene was recruited by Saul and his brother Felipe to wrangle a rag tag group of 3 GM's into battle.  Saul and Jolene discuss how that idea morphed into a totally different game than she had invisioned.  The good, the bad and the ugly of putting on such an event at a gaming convention.  How hard and rewarding doing an event like this can be.  And how Jolene broke a new GM, Steve, who vowed never to run a game con game again.

  • Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene Episode Five: Roll Vs Role Playing

        In This Episode we discuss the idea of Roll Vs Role playing. We discuss where these different playing styles come from and how things seem to be changing for each style.    We mainly use Dungeons and Dragons as an example but these ideas and themes discussed can be applied to any genre rpg.  Knowing about the difference of these two styles can help a GM run a better game.
