    Episode 382: Think on your Feet LIV

    Join Frank for another Think on your Feet episode. Yet again, we step into the unknown, with an unplayed-before deck and an unplayed-before scenario. Let's go!  In Think on your Feet episodes, I endeavour not to edit much at all. Sometimes I cut some shuffling sounds or abbreviate some of my longer pauses (a chap's got to think!), but otherwise, it's uncut, unaltered and meant to feel like you're with me at the table. There may be mistakes and misplays, but hopefully some successes too. Timestamps 0.00 intro and spoiler warning 1.35 question to the listener - what do you want to hear in ToyF? 2.10 investigator selection and deck discussion 4.30 campaign intro including chaos bag 5.45 prologue 8.55 scenario intro 10.30 map description  13.45 what are blood tokens? 15.00 act and agenda 16.55 stats and opening hand 19.15 gameplay begins 31.35 Tommy tips!  36.10 what is the Predator keyword ability? 48.30 what must I do with 'must'? 1.24.10 end of scenario and wrap-up, including looking at reward cards 1.07.15 I take an attack from Julia and forget that she is elusive-keyworded, but I spot it shortly afterwards.  Amazing logo courtesy of this guy Join Drawn to the Flame on Patreon: www.patreon.com/drawntotheflame Email us on drawntotheflamepodcast@gmail.com | Find us on Bluesky Thank you for listening and subscribing.

    Episode 381: Where are You at with Arkham?

    Join Frank and Peter for a riff on this question: where are you at with Arkham? How do you feel about allocation? How is chapter two hitting? What impact does that have on casting? And what else is catching our attention?

    Episode 380: Crisis of Identity (of Sorts)

    Join Frank and Peter for a head-scratcher: is Carolyn the new Daisy? What does that mean? And if it means what we think it means, what does that say about chapter 1 Arkham in comparison with chapter 2 Arkham, if anything?  Amazing logo courtesy of this guy Join Drawn to the Flame on Patreon: www.patreon.com/drawntotheflame Email us on drawntotheflamepodcast@gmail.com | Find us on Bluesky Thank you for listening and subscribing.

    Episode 379: Wondrous Lands V

    Join Frank for another instalment of Wondrous Lands, a live play series of Earthborne Rangers. This is the first campaign, Lure of the Valley, solo. As this is recorded live, slips and errors are sure to creep in, so please extend me your understanding - I hope you enjoy the journey alongside me! If you want more of an explainer of the game, check out the first Wondrous Lands episode, where I offer more of a rules explainer.  You can view the map here, the campaign log here and my deck here. Timestamps: 0.00 preamble + where's the arkham? 2.10 setup 4.30 our first location 6.15 gameplay begins 8.00 I don't need to avoid the buck to avoid fatigue - I spot this at 8.25 though!  14.00 a new location... 26.50 I forget the mountain effect on Rising Waters - I catch this at 31.10 and add rain to accommodate it.  41.35 some damp business 44.50 a bit of scheming... 50.20 a set-aside card (please write in thoughts!)

    Episode 377: Arcane Environments

    Join Peter and Frank as they tease apart two related but not quite the same things: environments and chapters. What are they both? How do they impact the game? How do they even work? Should we care?

    Join Frank and Peter as they look at some of the hits and misses of the chapter two core set - aka the 2026 core set - for Arkham Horror The Card Game, and specifically the highs and lows of Brethren of Ash, the core set campaign. We're looking at what we love, what worked for us, and what left us wanting more.  Amazing logo courtesy of this guy Join Drawn to the Flame on Patreon: www.patreon.com/drawntotheflame Email us on drawntotheflamepodcast@gmail.com | Find us on Bluesky Thank you for listening and subscribing.
