Plot Points

The gang talks over Old School Revolution darling, Dungeon Crawl Classics and a level 0 adventure for the game, Sailors on the Starless Sea! Taste, feel, and smell the wonders of Appendix N fantasy.

Hear Ben mess up the intro, Sarah gasp and the Well of Souls, and Brad brag about his dungeon-crawling chops!

Thanks to Chris Koterba for producing, and 50 Breaks for providing awesome tuneage. Check out their latest album here!

And this, is what Appendix N looks like!

Join Brad, Ben, and Sarah as they play Ben Robbins' game of history creation, Microscope.

Also, come see Ben at the Midwinter Gaming Convention on Saturday, January 14th at noon. He's giving a talk on why it's good to be a geek, and how nerd pastimes make you smarter!

Ben talks about using Microscope to build a steampunk fantasy world, and Call of Cthulhu for Beginners, which is a Dr. Seuss retelling of Lovecraft's most famous work.

Ben has been running two Dracula Dossier campaigns over the last 14 months, and one of them just ended! He reflects on what he would have done differently, and advice he would give to other GMs running the campaign.

Shadows of Eldolan by Cal Moore is an introductory adventure for 13th Age, Pelgrane Press's fantastically popular fantasy game. Designed by Rob Heinsoo and Jonathon Tweet, the game is a mashup of popular mechanics and story-game sensibilities. The Plot Points gang talks fantasy, the adventure, and Icons in this episode!

In further good news, Brad has secured a kidney! While this likely means there may be another short hiatus in the future, it does guarantee the long-term existence of the show. So three cheers for three kidneys!

Lastly, we have more good news! 50 Breaks, the talented band of maniacs who graciously allow us to use their music for our bumpers has a new album out, which you MUST check out. It's amaze-balls. I personally suggest track 3. Click here now!
