It's been awhile since I did one of these. In this video I answer a lot of questions about my process and progress and why I've made the decisions I have. Also, FYI, I finished my draft of the Core Rulebook yesterday. Now all that needs to be done is create 2-4 one-page adventures. I am REALLY looking forward to this stage. The first is called "The Fungus Licking Cannibal Cult." Cheers!

My monthly lecture from my beloved office shed. Topics: Gen-Con, the Top 20 Most Played Games of GenCon, and the state of DungeonTube today, excepted from my seminar "How to Run a Kick-Ass Youtube Channel." Much peace and love.

Oops! I uploaded the wrong video earlier. This the extended version. Thanks to all the patrons that I met at GenCon. I had a blast!
2025-08-05 21:30:31 +0000 UTC View PostJust back from GenCon and I am exhausted. Napped three times in the car on the trek home. Nevertheless, I have to do a video on the big news that Mercer will NOT be the GM for CR campaign 4. Instead, he's taking a break and allowing Brennan Lee Mulligan to take over as GM. I think this is GREAT news and will explain why in the video. Because of time constraints, I will upload this video onto YT first at noon, with the extended version dropping on Patreon around 2pm. It's the only way I can ...

My favorite type of video--game mechanics! Whether or not you like Daggerheart, there's some cool stuff in this game. I hope you enjoy the video. I'll be back from GenCon soon with a front porch lecture and more videos. An extended cut of Caves of Carnage is on deck, with The Village of Hommlet in production this month. Enjoy!

This is for an upcoming video called "Daggerhack" where I adapt Daggeheart rules to 5E. Instead of doing all the math every time you roll damage, just toss a d6 and check this chart. Copy it and give it to all your players so they can do the conversation work.
Happy gaming!

This isn't good. Diamond Comics Distributors is bankrupt and Paizo, Goodman Games, Roll for Combat, and other game companies stand to lose hundreds of thousands to MILLIONS of dollars of inventory. PDM explains.

This is going to be my classic module adaptation for 2025. The game is scheduled for Saturday the 19th. This will result in several videos, including a prep session, Live Play (1-2) and final Youtube version including all the miniatures and models to air this Fall. Thanks to all of YOU for making this possible.
Happy Independence Day!

I went to the oncologist today (just a checkup) and tomorrow my wife is receiving an education award. I am also playtesting Daggerheart with Bob World Builder this weekend. All this has reduced my production time. Hopefully last week's three videos and the June Front Porch Lecture will suffice.
Also, the Daggerheart Drawing will be next Monday.
Several new videos are in production.
