Hi! This is the first episode here at the new site!
I am excited to be publishing these podcasts again after a
long hiatus. Thanks to all who have been waiting for Virtual
Play to resume--as I've said before--both of you! In this
episode, Bill and I talk about a few of the games we played at
Dreamation 2014. The show includes excerpts from Dungeon
Crawl Classics, Ashen Stars, and Trail of Cthulhu. The focus
of the show is on the use of flashbacks and other time manipulation
as a technique for adventure design. Our discussion also
includes a few minutes on a Traveller adventure I ran, but we have
no excerpt because I lost the SD card. Drat! The
episode clocks in at 75 minute--a little longer than usualI think
it's worth it. Enjoy the show!
