Hello DMNs! How's it going for y'all? It's been another hell of a week, and we hope you're all alright. Tell us what you're up to.
Thanks to your input on skills, we're putting together a Skills series for the Wednesday show!! One of the topics y'all requested a lot didn't quite make the cut for youtube, so we wanted to explore it f...
TGIF to you, DMNs!
Today Jim and Emma are at it again, this time talking about the nature of good and evil in D&D, the cognitive dissonance that can crop up with it in play, and a lil bit about the history of good and evil in general! It's one of those philosophical ones.
Main convo starts up around 25 minutes. &n...
Hey, I've got a question for y'all:
If we did a show on Skills in 5e, what would you be interested in hearing about?
Thanks!
Jim
Hello DMNs! It's Friday afternoon, and that means we've got another podcast for ya, this time featuring Jim and Emma!
After last week's podcast about what we'd want for 6e, we decided we needed to talk about WHAT MAKES D&D D&D??
So, like any good YouTubers, we made top ten lists and then argued about them.
What ...
Welcome to the weekend, DMNs!
We did it.
This week, we're dreaming up D&D 6e and realize that in order to do that you have to ask the ultimate question: What IS Dungeons and Dragons?
We're likely to revisit this topic because it's huge. You tell us what you think and where you think this conv...
Happy Friday Web DMNs! We made it through another week.
Today we have a ourselves a good lil Web DM ramble, as I'm sure you know we are wont to do from time to time. This time, we're spitballing about how you'd add back in some social support in D&D and TTRPG - most likely this is the start of what may turn into a larger conv...
Hail and well met, Web DeMons! (Saw someone call it Web DMNs and I like it, we may do that)
Hope you're all well! This week, we're talking more about ways to diversify combat in D&D and take tactical inspiration from real life and other games.
The real meat of that convo happens around the 28 minute mark, but first, Jim tells y...
Happy Friday Web DeMons!
Apologies for the delay today; in keeping with today's topic, Trogdor and Jim were exploring the forest today and they briefly fell in a lake. Everybody's fine, Trogdor called it "a scary and awesome adventure." Just took a couple hours to warm everyone up again.
Today's main discussion begins aroun...
