Sorry all, real life problems means no real episode this fortnight. 

I know it isn't fun, I hate it when it isn't regular, but better now than in the middle of a deep dive.  And this is an extension of the hobby for us; we don't ask for money, we've been regular from the start...sometimes life gets in the way.

Please bear with us. 

Next episode will be the start of our deep dive into V5, and hopefully shortly after (part of what this is about) we'll have a small Actual Play to actually demonstrate the game.

See everyone in a fortnight.

We're taking a break between books to throw out some more general advice and tell stories.

After we've gotten a group together, the next step is improving them.  

Apologies for the audio, which cut out on some of our most useful and insightful comments (because of course it did). Unfortunately we only realised how bad it was after recording and have stitched it together as  best we can.

We're taking a break between books to throw out some more general advice and tell stories.

This part is about our experiences in getting people together. Next ep will cover levelling up your group. 

At this point in time, V6 has been revealed and the playtest packet is out. It doesn't seem good, but we're still deciding whether to do an emergency pod on the new stuff, or wait and fold it into the 'what we wanted from a new edition/update' part of the series.

Spoilers - it ain't great.

In Part 10 of our Witcher RPG deep dive, we finish the adventure, explain its many failures and try to compensate by reworking it into a salvageable idea.
