Line of Sight

On Episode 161 of Line of Sight, all three of us are back to finish off our

primer episodes for people who are new to Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition

with a look at how combat works! Join Bret, Chandler, and Jaden as they

break down how actions, bonus actions, and movement all interact, why

Dexterity is Chandler's favorite stat, and come learn some stuff about how

combat works in D&D 5e before Iron Kingdoms Requiem drops!

On episode 160 of Line of Sight, Bret and Jaden sit down and wax eloquent

about one of their absolute favorite things - power attacks. With the

ability to influence the table in subtle (or less subtle) and devastating

ways, Power Attacks are one of the most unique features of the Warmachine

and Hordes rule set. Come listen to them discuss utility, use cases, and

rules application for the domain of Warjacks, Warbeasts, and Horrors -

Power Attacks!

On Episode 159 of Line of Sight, Bret, Chandler, and Jaden sit down and go

over the Legion of Everblight CID from 2020. They discuss models that hit

the mark, things that were nice surprises, and models that looked promising

but ultimately haven't made a splash on the game. Jaden continues to prod

Chandler towards acceptance of Virtues, and Bret bemoans Legion's

usurpation of the classic Circle "Hit and Run" playstyle. All in all a

rollicking good time and a great little analysis of a CID that has made its

mark on the game.

On Episode 158 of Line of Sight, the whole gang is here to talk about one

of the most asked questions in the Privateer Press orbit right now - how

does one get started with D&D 5e before Iron Kingdoms: Requiem arrives?

This first primer discusses the most basic aspects of the system, from

classes and races to ability scores and advantage. Future episodes will be

spread out across 2021 and cover more complicated topics before culminating

in a one-shot audio streamed game! If you’re wondering how to start playing

5th edition Dungeons and Dragons before IKRPG: Requiem arrives in

September, this is a great place to start!

On Episode 157 of Line of Sight, Jaden and Bret kick off our fourth year of

podcasting (can you believe it?!) with a detailed overview of the Crucible

Guard CID and some super spicy Fallen Corvis spoilers. Thanks to everyone

who’s supported us for the crazy journey we’ve been on - here’s to another

awesome year!

The debate of the ages, the discourse of the ancient scholars, the greatest and most complex conundrum of our time… can you play competitive AND have fun?!? This week we bring on Garrett from Midnight MonPod to talk a bit about how to have fun, for you and your opponent, while still practicing and learning competitive play in any game, from MonPoc to Warmachine. Alas, this is the final episode of our run of guest episodes with LoS content creators for now, but we’ll see you all next week as we talk about…. something! It’ll be great!

Another week, my friends, and it’s another guest, as this week Bret and Chandler bring on Michael Ireland, host of the Vicarious Competition competitively-focused Monsterpocalypse podcast. We go over a bit about what makes Monpoc a solid game for competitive play, what kind of considerations you should have going into the game with a competitive mindset, and just all around what makes Monpoc a lot of fun. We’ll see you all next week for the final week of our guest blitz!

On Episode 154 of Line of Sight, Jaden and Bret bring on the effusive, the

excited, the indescribable Mr. Class of Field of Fire and, in a rare

fashion, flip the tables on the interviewing extraordinaire. Field of Fire

is a sub brand of content under the Line of Sight banner which is churning

out Youtube, Radio Play, Podcast, and Written material at a prodigious

rate, and on this episode we discuss everything from how the project got

started to gaming philosophy. Emanuel is one of the most fun people to

listen to on the internet, come hear what he has to say!

On Episode 153 of Line of Sight, Bret and Jaden are joined by Tyrone and

Ryan from Blight Bringers! The four chat about the state of the meta, and

then talk about how each threat can be answered from a Legion of Everblight

perspective. Blightbringers is a Legion of Everblight focused podcast that

can be found on the Line of Sight network, and we are thrilled to have

Tyrone and Ryan aboard.

We’re back at it again! Today on Line of Sight, we bring on the boys at Charge and Spike to chat a bit about terrain in Warcaster. What kind of things are there to consider when building out a table? How does it differ from Warmachine? Will we ever actually learn how to podcast?!? Get these answers and more on episode 152! See you next week!
