Tavern Watch Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

There's a tabletop game for everyone, even those of us who want to combine regency romance with sentai superhero teams. Join Her Majesty's Prehistorian Praetorians as our prehistoric-themed sentai — you can thank Matt for that — takes its first steps into society by attending the grand opening of a new gallery in the museum. It goes about as well as you would expect from our creative crowd of players.

Liz is hosting this game as Master of Ceremonies, joined by the following gentlefolk:

• Dame Margaret Clytemnestra Marlborough, a not-so-famed paleontologist (Matthew Rossi)
• Ser Riley Mullabyaly, a military man through-and-through (Joe Perez)
• Diviner Haruka Hadagami, an astrologer who blurs the line between science and mysticism (Joan Albright)
• Bartholomew Culpepper, an associate professor of history at Magdalene University at Cambridge (Phil Ulrich)
• Lady Blossom Hephestia Bee, a student who's eager to pick up every drop of social gossip (Anne Stickney)

This is the first in a three-part game of Sentai & Sensibility by 9th Level Games. It uses the Polygon system in which each player uses a single die based on their class (or in this case, their station), and we found it a great deal of fun!

We go behind the scenes of our just finished two-year Riatan D&D campaign to talk about how the game evolved over the course of the campaign. Matt talks about the pivot he had to make when the party decided to avoid the magical city he'd constructed, instead sending us off on an adventure with undead pirates. We also learn a little more about the stories we didn't explore and the characters we wish we'd seen more of.
