The first change of many!

SideQuests! ·

2022/09/10

What's up everybody!? Your Paladins of Podcast are back again with a few changes right now, and some big changes coming up in the future. Josh stepped away from our audio show, and we started putting things in place in order to keep us moving ahead at full steam. Craig is with us today and he would really like to stick around, and while he's getting used to be in the other chair I'm pounding away at updating our website so it's easier to navigate, use, and interact with. Not to mention boost our

Talking to Possum Creek Games!

SideQuests! ·

2022/09/03

Rob was finally able to get something in the schedule to talk with Jay Dragon and Ruby Lavin after a busy August for everyone, and some tumultuous thunderstorms in early September. We were able to really dive into both the designing aspect as well as the creation aspect of Wanderhome and connect with each of these fantastic individuals about how they chose their processes and got started in the world of Table Top Role Playing Games and developing them! --- Support this podcast:

Does anyone else overdevelop NPCs?

SideQuests! ·

2022/08/27

I was listening to this weeks episode when I realized that Rob over develops most of his NPC's because either his players expect him to because they've always asked in depth questions or they expect him to because he always has. But the fact is, these NPC's are way developed, especially the reoccurring ones. Anyone else do this? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/epictablegames/support

Notes? Who takes notes anyway?

SideQuests! ·

2022/08/20

Rob and Josh tackle that record keeping. The book keeping. The score counting. The journaling. The dreaded note system. We talk about a few good points, for if you're a Dungeon Master and if you're a player. Did you know that when you shorthand and don't know what you're reading a week or two later, those notes are pretty useless? I'd still award some experience points for keeping them anyway. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/epictablegames/support

Aspartame..?

SideQuests! ·

2022/08/13

Aspartame is an intense, low-calorie, artificial sweetener. It is a white, odourless powder, approximately 200 times sweeter than sugar. And the paladins of podcast just can't let it go this episode! We talk medical stuff for no reason, try really hard to talk about 3rd party content, and campaign settings that run congruently with primary rules, and can't seem to stay focused because Rob's got a mental block right now. And Josh keeps talking about aspartame? --- Support this podcast:

GenCon Special! City of Mist & Amit Moshe

SideQuests! ·

2022/08/07

GenCon has been an amazing ride this year, and as much as we absolutely love seeing every vendor, exhibitor, volunteer, and participant our favorite part is the opportunity to sit down and talk with the developers of the games we love. Rob had a chance encounter to sit down with Amit Moshe, the developer of City of Mist, and founder of Son of Oak Game Studio. Listen in as they discover some of what sets City of Mist apart from other games and enjoy a bit more of a personal look into the developer

GenCon Special!

2022/08/06

Rob made it down to Indianapolis to check out GenCon with newly appointed special content curator Mike Reynolds. They've been navigating their way through the best four days in gaming for at least two days now and give a quick recap of what they've seen so far and some of the things they've been able to do. The convention center is huge! But, it's at least traversable in 10 minutes if anyone was wondering. --- Support this podcast:

The Funny Trap Dungeon

SideQuests! ·

2022/07/30

We know Rob's talked about it before, but it was Josh's first foray in to the unusual halloween dungeon Rob runs, and it's always a great time talking about some of the traps. We make a few quick references to how to change traps up because they're often times under utilized due to their nature but with a few tweaks you can have a rip-roaring real good time. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/epictablegames/support

What did we do....?

SideQuests! ·

2022/07/23

Rob & Josh started out really strong with this one by mentioning a few things about using media as inspiration in a bid to finish a quick idea from last weeks episode. This spiraled out of control as we also looked at some of our own methods of running a game, some quick world building methods, and right at the end we finally get to what we actually wanted to talk about. What games we'd like to be in, and you'd never guess that Rob wants to play in a game full of... --- Support this podcast:

New Host, New Inspiration

SideQuests! ·

2022/07/16

While Rob has talked about where a lot of his inspiration comes from, as we wrap up learning about Josh we take a closer look into what his general inspiration is when developing his stories and worlds. While Tolkien fantasy is always present he does seem to find some pretty unusual places to pull ideas from. But! Josh also warns of a potential pitfall with certain thematic elements, while Rob is much more comfortable with venturing into the well known materials. --- Support this podcast:

We talk about Etiquette

SideQuests! ·

2022/07/09

Josh and Rob tackle the idea of table Etiquette a bit more in depth this time around, speaking from both experience and expectations. Among the things we mention like keep proper hygiene as a player, is one of the most important things as both host and DM: Do not set a precedent you can not maintain; don't load the table up with maps and terrain if you can't sustain it. Don't force the table to be on time if you can't be ready to go when they are. Keep things moving. --- Support this podcast:

We mourn the passing of Brandon "Potato" Tatroe

SideQuests! ·

2022/05/09

It is with my greatest sorrow to inform our community of the death of our co-host, Brandon "Potato" Tatroe. Without Potato, it feels hard to move forward and I know that he wouldn't want me to stop or give up. When he suddenly handed me his reigns, I knew from a recent conversation that he didn't want this to end and that I'd have to finish what we started. Something that honors and celebrates Potato, for everyone in the community. Unfortunately, this means that for a few weeks, Epic Table Games

Potato promised us some character builds for the new Playtest of Marvel Multiverse, and we finally get to see what he had going on. We detail some of the downsides of the character creation process and a little bit of the concept versus application issue many of us run into when talking about certain games and character design. Rob also lets a small secret out of the bag when it comes to his new campaign for the reduced player count - it's in the Midgard Campaign setting for Pathfinder 1e, but he

Rob and Potato follow up with some of the information that has come up since last week's episode about Marvel Multiverse Role Playing Game Playtest and Rob makes good on his teaser promise about some cool things about the Free League Publishing's "Vaesen." The art work is cool as hell, and the premise feels so close to folklore that its hard not to be impressed by the mechanics in the game. We touch on a year long star finder event, and bring up one of the most exciting table top gaming events of

Marvel Multiverse Roleplaying Game

2022/04/23

The paladins of the podcast tackle the Marvel Multiverse Roleplaying game Playtest handbook. As Rob and Potato breeze through some of the quickest chapters and a longer peer into some of the powers and abilities, we think this game is a general mainstay for the newer super hero genre of role playing games. The kicker is that we're not really on the same page as other reviewers. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/epictablegames/support

Big plans from the big two?

Wizards of the Coast purchased D&D Beyond, Paizo partnered with the Foundry VTT, and we try to cover a bit of it without trying to get sidetracked, but if you know us you know it's impossible! We did fall into our typical organized chaos this episode, but its a fun ride through some great announcements if you missed it. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/epictablegames/support

Today's episode is a little different than normal, because our very own podcast paladin, Potato, got to welcome his second child into the world earlier this week. He's been swamped with new duties, and was able to stop in to make sure we got something out to you all. We talk a bit about the new addition, and have a little fun relating some of our own thoughts on how the classes our children would be versus what class they currently align with now happen to be.
