    Dice Superstitions

    In this episode of RPG Blokes, we explore the fascinating world of dice superstitions with fellow gaming enthusiasts. We each share our unique relationships with our dice, revealing a mix of methodical approaches and casual attitudes. Our discussion unveils a variety of die-related superstitions, including the “no-touch” rule and the idea of dice jails as a punishment for underperforming dice.  We delve into the psychology behind these beliefs, questioning the impact of luck and randomness in gameplay. We challenge the necessity of these superstitions while reflecting on how they shape our gaming experiences. The conversation touches on ethical considerations regarding loaded dice, emphasizing that the spirit of the game often thrives in unpredictability.  As we conclude, we encourage listeners to embrace their personal gaming traditions, whether they lean towards superstition or a more analytical perspective, ultimately highlighting the intricate interplay between belief and chance in tabletop gaming.

    Dragon Warriors (with Dave Morris)

    In this episode, we explore the nostalgic impact of Dragon Warriors, a cornerstone in role-playing games that has shaped our gaming journeys for 40 years. Joining us is Dave Morris, co-creator of Dragon Warriors, who shares stories from its inception, including the groundbreaking choice to serialize the game into accessible booklets. We discuss the game’s distinct features, like its limited character races that enhance narrative depth, and the absence of alignment systems for nuanced character development. Dave also reveals insights into modern adaptations and revitalization efforts, highlighting the community's ongoing engagement with the game. Additionally, he offers a glimpse into his upcoming project, Jewelspider, designed to deepen the Dragon Warriors experience with a focus on improvisation and rich storytelling. Together, we celebrate the legacy of Dragon Warriors and the vibrant community it fosters.

  4. What Have I Got Myself Into?

    What Have I Got Myself Into?

    Welcome back to RPG Blokes! It’s Season 2, and we’re diving into what really happens after your first few games — when “trying D&D” turns into “I think I’ve got a new hobby.” We talk about what comes next: the growing time commitment, the emotional rollercoaster of your first character, and the new worlds that open up beyond the table. From painting miniatures and buying dice sets you definitely don’t need, to joining clubs, conventions, and making new friends — it’s all part of the fun (and chaos). Barry’s moving to Scotland and might have to start his own society, Jon’s finally upgraded his laptop from the Windows 98 era, and Stephen’s recovering from seven years of DM duty — so the gang’s all here, older, wiser, and slightly more bewildered. If you’ve just started playing or are wondering what you’ve got yourself into, this is the perfect way to begin Season 2.
