Tavern Chat

Bad Mike and Tenkar unbox the new Swords & Wizardry Boxed Set, discuss upcoming projects, and cover the latest update on the Marmoreal Tomb Kickstarter.

Join Bad Mike & Tenkar, as they sit down with Greg Christopher to discuss Avarice & Ambition 2e and then delve into current events in the tabletop RPG hobby.

Rach & Tenkar return with two Gamers' Health LiveStreams. Listen as they talk about their own successes and failures and remember that you are not alone.

Joe & Tenkar talk about various houserules, campaign styles, and wherever the live audience takes them.

I need to choose a style of play for my next campaign. It will have my old group of players from high school and college and will be either an adventure path, episodic, a hex crawl, or a mega-dungeon.

Wherein I talk a little bit about BFRPG, the OSR's oft-forgotten gem, and a bargain too. This is an affiliate link to BFRPG on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3Aii3Ib, Your purchase goes to support this channel.

Over 40% of D&D 5e players are under 25. How do we get the OSR to tap into that demographic? 

I was watching Professor Dungeon Master over at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCD6ERRdXrF2IZ0R888G8PQgand I realized he had it right. A sandbox is about choices, but not limitless ones, at least not if the DM wishes to retain his sanity ;)

Social media in the OSR has been a shit show for the last two weeks or so. When official business accounts argue with the gaming community and try to win arguments, you know it isn't going to be good.

A look at some Kickstarter that have failed to deliver, years after they claimed they would. Far West, Ernest Gary Gygax Jr.'s Marmoreal Tomb Campaign Starter, Appendix N Adventure Toolkits and City State of the Invincible Overlord

Bad Mike & Tenkar return to the scene of the crime, with a follow-up and updates to last week's episode on the latest iteration of TSR. Plus, LaNasa threats of legal action are nothing new.  Edit: Forgot to add this to the notes: Giantlands at Harvard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEKCJVI9pRc

Mike & Tenkar look at the latest company to bear the initials TSR. Who are they, what have they produced, are they the inheritors of the Original TSR, what are their plans for the company and more.

There's a press release stating that the original studio of TSR Games is back. As a homage, perhaps. But this isn't the REAL TSR, which is owned lock, stock, and barrel by WotC. And just who the heck is Woderfilled and why did they put out the press release?

There's a new TSR, which claims to be the return of the original TSR. What is it, what is it not, and what obligations do its owners owe the gaming community?
