The Weekly Scroll Tabletop Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

On this episode, we read and review HIS MAJESTY THE WORM from Josh McCrowell, a tarot based megadungeon ttrpg with robust procedures, narrative mechanics, and a focus on oft ignored elements such as food, light, hunger, and inventory management. This is a bit of a long one, so buckle in folks. You can see our previous interviews with Josh on episodes 167 and 117.

On this episode, we read and review WHITEHACK 4E from Christian Mehrstram, a complete fantasy role-playing game in the original tradition that works by picking a very limited set of pieces and then triangulating them to pin-point how monsters, spells, or abilities works. But before we get into Whitehack we chat a bit about the recent 2024 ENNIE nominations, the Greedy Goblin Summer Sale over at Crumbling Keep, and the release of Red Solstice Issue 5 from Stella Condrey.
