Grumpy Dungeon Masters

Today we talked about gunpowder and technology in D&D. What is better for killing a dude, a Laser Rifle or the Fireball spell? Time magic is weird like that. We also talked about time magic….or was it last podcast, or maybe next podcast. Can’t really say. Time magic is weird like that. Wait didn’t I just say that?

In this latest episode we get to take a look at Tre’vor, Craigs older, yet smaller brother. He’s kind of a jerk. Also, should DM’s back up when they make a mistake? This plus Baldurs Gate 3, Solastra, and MOAR Icewind Dale (spoiler free) shenanigans. Man….Tre’vor is a jerk.
