Show notes:
03:22: Spell Failures and Misfires from Low Fantasy Gaming
04:14: https://discord.gg/VW6NUJe
04:50: Zimmers Candle of Quicksaving from 5e Hardcore Mode
07:05: Stress and Flashbacks from Blades in the Dark
15:00: The Offical RPG for Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series. We didn’t discuss it in detail, but I’m informed it has a versatile Blades-like dicepool system which does combat, social and magic all rather well.
15:20: Don’t worry folks, I’m sure we can revisit Blades in a future episode.
15:55: Classes as Pies and Old-School Social Combat from Neoclassical Greek Revival
18:16: Swayable Juries and Chase Tracks from Aces and Eights: Shattered Frontier
20:29: Icons from 13th Age
20:40: Cat Tobin Interview
26:21: 5e Travel Rules from Adventures In Middle-Earth. Sadly no longer available from Cubicle 7, but stay on the lookout for 2nd-hand copies, perhaps.
27:58: Non-Lethal Bar Brawling from Brancolonia
31:20: Advantage for Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition
33:47: The 2d6 Reaction Table from Old-School Basic D&D. Here's a useful modern version, with extra layer to show it can be used in a lot more scenarios than you think.
