This is a small panel discussion, but I didn’t want to talk solo for as long as it would take to cover all the topics I had in mind. So Arpie was kind enough to help me out and we cover a lot of ground and even review a few games. Here’s what’s inside:
- We review “Burning Empires” and discuss my failure to record it in great depth
- We also review “Mouse Guard” from a very biased perspective
- We’ll teach you all there is to know about Ludic Peripety
- Are most Story Games “abandon-ware”?
- Why I haven’t recorded “Committee for the Exploration of Mysteries”, “Zombie Cinema”, and other games
- There’s almost too much praise for Adam W. in this episode, especially in the discussion of “My Life with Master”
- GMing techniques for traditional games and why they don’t apply to Story Games (or Ludic Peripety)
- Do Ludic Peripety (or Story Gamers) fail “casual” role-players? (I can hear the ice cream truck in the background during this part but didn’t notice it during recording. My wife was upstairs and got herself something but didn’t get anything for me.)
- Shticky Love?!?
- Join the growing Ludic Peripety movement today! Just email Arpie.
- The best D&D 4th Edition gaming story ever!
- Arpie reveals far too much
- The proper use of White Wolf games – run a Twilight based campaign and score with Cougars (If you think you’ve won the contest, email me!)

This is third and final part of an “In A Wicked Age” session I recorded at home.
Come talk about this episode on the forum thread!
Here’s a pic of the regulars from this gaming group in faux-period costumes. No, we aren’t LARPing; why do you ask?

Yes, it’s another opinion-blog-o-cast! I talk about rpg.geekdo.com, make a few updates/follow-ups to previous shows, and then talk about control of fiction in RPGs – a topic inspirted by Judd of Kryos on the Canon Puncture Show.
As always, please come discuss this episode on the forum!

I’m the most recent participant on “Stabbing Contest”. Don’t worry, it’s not as violent as it sounds! It’s a conversational podcast and the host, Orge, was nice enought to have me on. His show slants heavily towards Story Games, but it’s primarily about whatever the host and his guests are interested in. I listen to the show all the time, so I’d definitely recommend listening to other episodes – he has a lot of entertaining guests and friends (and his wife is entertaining too, and has her own show as well).

The Brilliant Gameologists have a Mission Statement, so I figured I’d one-up them with a Vision Statement for Story Shtick.
I’d really appreciate any feedback on these ideas and what you’d like to see (hear) on the show. Please either leave a comment below or comment on the forum thread. Thanks!
