A Fantastic Vorage

The boys are back for another rainy day Saturday Catch Up, discussing when to roll for what, how to balance made up monsters, and turn rain into an amlimal! You're gonna like the way you look. I guarantee it. Sponsored by The Doobie Brothers' Dusty Brush Questions Answered: I'm making my own boss monster stats by combining both Goro and Motaro from the Mortal Kombat series and I want to make sure that I don't overpower my final battle. When using homebrew creations like this, how can I know I'm scaling the monster to an appropriate Challenge Rating? Of course, I  don't want a final boss to be too easy (maybe one player character death.....or two) but I don't want the fight to be impossible. How do you feel about players actively requesting (or just assuming they can do) certain passive rolls such as insight checks, perception checks, or knowledge checks like history/arcana? I've noticed that sometimes players will do this thing where they just go on a roll fiesta; Have you ever thought about the role of these rolls? Do you let your players request them?

Blastin' Asses For the Masses (Master Manual: Fury Road)

Harmontown's "Dungeon Master to the Stars" Spencer Crittenden and game designer Cohen Edenfield discuss the finer points of leading a role-playing session in this surprisingly accessible advice show.

National Treasure and Dungeon Master for Harmontown &amp; Harmonquest, Spencer Crittenden and Game Designer Evan Cohenfield deliver a fantastically informative and entertaining podcast that discusses common topics and difficult scenarios encountered in D&amp;D. I’m particularly fond of the Helga Cruciform and Amlinals Segment. But the FailMail segment is a favorite. I hope to DM a campaign awesome enough to warrant a FailMail submission to the discord app. Thank you Spencer and Cohen!

The #1 Podcast for DM’s, GM’s, and just Wanna-Be M’s

Great insight, interesting segments, funny hosts. Always looking forward to the next episode.
