    2HGM 137: GM Bushido

    Have you ever noticed how different TTRPG systems have similar concepts but slightly different mechanics? How sometimes there seems to be a rule for the most specific edge case but not a core mechanic? Is it possible that we, as game designers, have done a disservice by trying to lure players into game-mastering by writing out all the mechanics? Is this description all questions? Oops? You’re welcome?  www.2HGM.com Music: Pondhillow's Finest, The Burning Saviours

    2HGM 136: Rizz Rolls

    Still here, still leaning against that wall with my leather jacket and sunglasses. Perhaps still smoking… Point is I’m pretty cool and can probably talk my way of detention if a teacher were to walk by. But just because I’m steeped in rizz, does that mean I can just nat 20 my way into becoming the youngest president?  www.2HGM.com Music: Pondhillow's Finest, The Burning Saviours

    2HGM 135: Style, Tone…(and maybe substance)

    The title is self explanatory I think. So I’m just going to lean against this wall with my leather jacket and cool sunglasses. Maybe light up a smoke. The question is, does the smoke buff my stats? Or is it a debuff, maybe it is neither?  www.2HGM.com Music: Pondhillow's Finest, The Burning Saviours

    2HGM 133: Perks, Skills, Attributes

    In this episode we discuss what perks we have and…Just kidding, it is another designing episode! Frickin’ got you huh. We talk about the design implications of using Perks, Skills, or Attributes for our own game. Maybe they are actually the same thing, but you will have to listen to the episode to find out. www.2HGM.com Music: Pondhillow's Finest, The Burning Saviours

    2HGM 132: Role-Playing Exercises

    Ready? Ok! (sounds of the cheer squad warming up before their routine) Instead of those awkward minutes trying to remember how to role-play, try a warm up! Get those role-playing muscles limber and loose. www.2HGM.com Music: Pondhillow's Finest, The Burning Saviours

    2HGM 131: Designing Deux w/ 2HGM

    By popular demand we invited the Two-Headed Game-Master duo back into the studio for another designing sesh. It might appear like we actually make backwards progress, but that is our process I guess (audible shrug) www.2HGM.com Music: Pondhillow's Finest, The Burning Saviours
