    Nerdcognito - Episode 228: Gaming Group Meeting Failures; Unfathomable Board Game Revisited

    Nerdcognito - Episode 228: Gaming Group Meeting Failures; Unfathomable Board Game Revisited

    In this episode, the gang talk about the TTRPG curse older than time: Getting the group together.  Inevitably, every group is going to ride the rocky road of scheduling.  Why is this the killing blow for some groups?  How can you pivot?  Is it the end of the D&D World?  Then after the news, as requested by the Nerdcognito Nation, the boys revisit, run down, and review the excellent co-op/traitor board game, Unfathomable!

    Nerdcognito - Episode 227: 40+ "Rules" for the TTRPG Table... (He's not wrong!)

    Nerdcognito - Episode 227: 40+ "Rules" for the TTRPG Table... (He's not wrong!)

    A frustrated Dungeon Master presented his players (do they play?) with a list of "rules" that were going to be implemented moving forward.  While clearly frustrated with SparkleTroll and otherwise bad player behavior as we dig through his list we have to ask... "Is he wrong?"  The guys discuss faux pas of players at the TTRPG table and how the DM can wrangle his DnD group back into reality.  Plus, the news!

    Nerdcognito - Episode 226: Too Many Classes! (aka Less is More)

    With ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY SIX OFFICIAL (you read that correctly) classes and subclasses in DnD 5e, it's time the gang evaluated class structures in TTRPGs.  There are no surprises here -- the guys believe less is more.  Add in some tales of characters gone by, bard mocking, and of course the news, and you have a full episode of nerdy goodness that you will love to listen to!

    Nerdcognito - Episode 224: WotC's AI Art Dust Storm... plus The Dungeon Delver!

    This week, our good friend The Dungeon Delver drops in to chew the fat with the gang about the incredible nothingburger that was the Wizards of the Coast "AI art FAQ."  There was a lot of internet noise, but is WotC doing... the right thing?  The boys and Bill dig in deep to this offering insight, perspective, and opinion.  Plus, the news will NOT disappoint!
