Tom Bloom is the designer of Lancer RPG, author of Kill Six Billion Demons, and self-proclaimed 4e sicko. Tom made some comments about Draw Steel on Bluesky, and I thought it would be interesting to hear his thoughts on Draw Steel, as a designer of a well-liked tactical RPG. We also talk about games not appologizing for their design, how testing makes games better, and how Draw Steel is not appealing game.

James Introcaso. Lead designer of Draw Steel. Need I say more. I was really excited to have him on, and it was a delight. James talks about going to GenCon, the value of showing that the core rules aren't sacred, how the victory and respite system is core to the Draw Steel experience, and his adventure design philosophy.

There's also the summoner and beastheart classes; the gnome, shadow elf and four more ancestries; an extended version of Fall of Blackbottom, a thorn dragon adventure, and a suicide mission adventure; and details on the Codex VTT. Then there's the crowdfunded weapons collection and kobold ancestry; and two other third-party adventures. And even that's not all! There's so much!

This episode I'm joined by Hannah Rose. She's had a busy career and has worked on the Taldorei setting for Critical Role, worked on multiple Wizards of the Coast books, and maybe most famously in the MCDM community, been the managing editor for Arcadia. We talk about her new venture, the quarterly magazine Horizons, trying to maintain a viable freelance market in TTRPGs, and what ever Deathmatch Island is.

In this episode I speak with Onslaught Six. He's currently crowdfunding the community magazine Ratcatchers, which features articles from multiple people in the Draw Steel community. We do talk about the magazine, the permissive license they're publishing under, but we start off with the space cowboy RPG he designed, how to find the right game for the right play group, and the OSR megadungeon he recently published, Ruins of Castle Gygar.

My guest this time is Paul Ligorski, also known as Heart of Arcana. Paul has written quite a few advenuters, not only for Draw Steel, but for D&D 5e, Mausritter and Cypher. He also runs a local game night multiple times a month. We talk about writing adventures for different systems, which TTRPG systems work well for teaching new players, how interacting with gods is different in Draw Steel, and how watching Draw Steel being designed has made him reimagine what can be used for inspiration.
