Powergaming with Deuce – Ep107

Powergaming with Deuce   Ep107

Beware the man on the left. He will ruin your game. His Wookiee companion, however, can be trusted.

One of our favorite people is Deuce (Eric’s brother-in-law Eric). The reason he is a favorite is that Deuce is a powergamer. We like to think of ourselves as powergamers (at times), but compared to Deuce we are hyper-immersive method actors.

We talk about some of Deuce’s best power-built characters and the games that promoted their creation.

Canon – Ep106

Canon   Ep106

You’re doing it wrong.

One of our longest running discussions centers around the use of established canon for roleplaying games. Does the official storyline of a game really matter, or is it just another thing that many in our community hold sacred for no reason?
