#204: RPG Starter Sets - a podcast by Morrus

from 2022-06-11T14:13:33

:: ::

This week, Morrus, Peter, and Jessica talk about what makes a good RPG Starter Set. In the news, what’s in Dragons of Stormwreck Isle, free dice and supplement on D&D Beyond, Cypher System gets an open license, Cyberpunk Edgerunners trailer released, and more! Plus a brand new sketch about unappreciative nobility.


Note: Before anyone gets too excited about the image, this is a very early mock-up that Morrus tweeted about a possible future product.
