Drawn To The Flame

Episode 363: Izzie Havin' A Laugh

Join Frank and Peter as they take a moment to look at another of the new investigators from the chapter two core set and consider what impact that might have on the design as a whole and on specific classes. We recorded this with episode 362 but then decided to split the track - hence the rapid start.

Episode 358: Think on your Feet XLIX

Join Frank for another Think on your Feet episode - this time, it's George Barnaby vs Film Fatale, in a sort-of facecheck encounter. Here's my deck: click me

In Think on your Feet episodes, I endeavour not to edit much at all. Sometimes I cut some shuffling sounds or abbreviate some of my longer pauses (a chap's got to think!), but otherwise, it's uncut, unaltered and meant to feel like you're with me at the table. There may be mistakes and misplays, but hopefully some successes too.

Misplay: at 47.05 I commit a Last Chance into a Brute Force attack, though, of course, Last Chance must be the only skill committed to a test. I sort of treat Brute Force like an event, clearly! Luckily it doesn't matter for the draw, though it does let me draw 2 on an action where I shouldn't be able to... whoops! 
At 1h19, I pass a test with a double commit and forget about Andre. My bad!

At 44.05 Peter takes a 4-action turn, forgetting he spent an action on the blue key. Somewhere between 44 & 49 minutes, Peter draws a reality acid and forgets to flip Ravenous. Same at 57. So there's a ten-ish minute window where Ravenous is ticking the wrong way. Sometimes these things happen! At 49.20 Peter pathfinds as though locations are connected by adjacency rather than icons, but he spots this and docks actions. Finally, at 1.10.05 Peter draws mysterious chanting and forgets the initiate of Dagon is in play, so fetches an Acolyte. It doesn't make a difference as he finishes that turn...

Episode 316: Think on your Feet XLIV

Tune in for Think on your Feet XLIV, in which the play through of The Innsmouth Conspiracy, featuring Subject 5U-21, continues. 

In Think on your Feet episodes, a live play series, I endeavour not to edit much at all. Sometimes I cut some shuffling sounds or abbreviate some of my longer pauses (a chap's got to think!), but otherwise, it's uncut, unaltered and meant to feel like you're with me at the table. There may be mistakes and misplays, but hopefully some successes too.

Timestamps: 

0.00 intro / preamble 
2.35 scenario intro
5.12 setup / vehicle rules / locations / fishing vessel
9.23 act / agenda
10.30 opening hand
12.30 gameplay begins
1.08.50 gameplay ends, resolution, wrap up

Three times (19.05, 34.11, 56.07) Peter takes a 4-action turn, but then the same turn or the next turn he spends an action to play Regurgitation, so it always evens out.  
At 47.20 Peter forgets to move The Thing That Follows.
