C’mon Craig, we’ve been hanging out looking cool for hours and not one chick has checked us out let alone said hello. He says if we let him bite us he’ll take us out and introduce us to some really cool bitches.

Ok didn’t know it deleted previous post if you post again. So both together …

“He said he had played tons of role-playing games but it just occured to me that maybe he meant Skyrim and World of Warcraft.”

B.J. *is* a writer, true, but he’s also a filmmaker, animator, artist, industrial designer,… I’ve known him for decades and gamed with him in tabletop RPG, LARP, boardgames. He’s incredibly creative and you can count on him carrying this through to a level of quality that will satisfy folks. He knows that when you find something you love, you may want to use it for years.

I loved hearing your riff on the layout B.J. did in the video! It really illustrates the flexibility and, as you said, open-endedness of the cards. I’ve used them as a gamemaster with great results. It really increased the richness of the world and major puzzle background as well as causing cool side quest ideas to jump to mind.

For me the big value of these cards—that will keep them as an essential tool—is that they draw out the great ideas I didn’t know I had waiting for me in the back of my mind.

(Listening to the rest of the podcast has me so sad that my campaign is currently on hold while my players deal with busy stuff like business launches. The one downside of playing with a bunch of grown ups! Priorities, people!)

Great podcast, you guys! Added myself to your mailing list so I can catch the next one.

The loot’s not worth it, dude. I hear these Werebros lose their trunks when bloodied.
