Welcome back to another scintillating istallment of your favorite miniature focused boyos. We convinced Dark Tyler (@tylerisalrightatpainting) to join us again as we talk about adding that much needed narrative spice to your games. Specifically we are talking about how you add RPG elements into your games, and how you break away from a sweaty mindset and turn your focus instead to creating something a little more cinematic. We've got more in here along with it - Tyler talks about getting amped on

In this episode we're talking about building that local community. It's the question we get asked the most - "how do I build a scene, or run something inq28".
