    Cannon Fodder 11/15/23

    Troy and Joe jump right in and go long on Fodder this week as discussions of Time for Chaos and Get in the Trunk spark discussions of improv tactics and how the Game Master takes on the role of a movie or tv show director. With the release of the Pathfinder Remaster, there's plenty of discussion on how that may impact the show(s) and what rules we already know are changing. In Listener Mail, Troy is asked to talk about some of his current favorite game systems.

Best actual play out there.

As a lifelong gamer who finds that getting other grown adults schedules lining up to play make believe gets harder and harder. I was wanting a bit of that gaming fix. I tried other actual play podcasts and they never really made me feel that I was at the table. The glass cannon crew is totally different. You feel like you are really part of this crews games, jokes, and triumphs. This is simply the best game to listen to, with the best chemistry between friends out there.

Great show, great personalities, very funny

The original 5 (Troy, Joe, Skid, Grant, and Matthew) really gelled on Giantslayer. Then they added Ellie and Sydney for A&A, and it got even better. Now with Kate on Strange Aeons and Jared on SQSS, it got even better and even funnier. Looking forward to Gatewalkers!
Update: Gatewalkers is live, and it is delivering! All the hard work to make it good paid off! Love the new intro music. Sydney and Kate are great additions.

ACatSat ,

A single problem

I’m loving the new campaign and the fact that Troy is being less insulting to the players. However, the intro music is jarring and terrible. It’s like a 70s sitcom. Can the composer of the “Blades in the Dark” intro create something to replace it?
