    Tom Bloom: Looking Over the Shoulder at D&D | Interview

    Tom Bloom is the designer of Lancer RPG, author of Kill Six Billion Demons, and self-proclaimed 4e sicko. Tom made some comments about Draw Steel on Bluesky, and I thought it would be interesting to hear his thoughts on Draw Steel, as a designer of a well-liked tactical RPG. We also talk about games not appologizing for their design, how testing makes games better, and how Draw Steel is not appealing game.

    James Introcaso: Designing Draw Steel | Interview

    James Introcaso. Lead designer of Draw Steel. Need I say more. I was really excited to have him on, and it was a delight. James talks about going to GenCon, the value of showing that the core rules aren't sacred, how the victory and respite system is core to the Draw Steel experience, and his adventure design philosophy.

    Hannah Rose: From Arcadia to Horizons | Interview

    This episode I'm joined by Hannah Rose. She's had a busy career and has worked on the Taldorei setting for Critical Role, worked on multiple Wizards of the Coast books, and maybe most famously in the MCDM community, been the managing editor for Arcadia.

    Onslaught Six: Ratcatcher Magazine | Interview

    In this episode I speak with Onslaught Six. He's currently crowdfunding the community magazine Ratcatchers, which features articles from multiple people in the Draw Steel community. We do talk about the magazine, the permissive license they're publishing under, but we start off with the space cowboy RPG he designed, how to find the right game for the right play group, and the OSR megadungeon he recently published, Ruins of Castle Gygar.
