No clickbait. Just serious reviews. And Deathbringer.

I keep hearing a lot about Dragonbane, excited to see what you have to say about it.

Adam Preset

I described Zoo Mafia to my kids and asked them if I should back it and they said "Yes" and "Absolutely yes."

David Ford

I’ve got to stop watching these reviews. I’m running out of shelf space to store all of the books/games/supplements that I pick up afterwards 😀

good to see some non-wotc content :) seriously, dragonbane does look amazingly produced, which is something I think makes a table of friends just that much more likely to try a new game that looks cool

To your concern about dodging/parrying slowing things down, in Dragonbane you have to choose between using your action in a round to attack or saving it to be available for parrying/dodging - you can't do both in a round. Likewise, if you get attacked before your turn comes up, you can choose to parry/dodge, but then you won't have that action available to use for attacking when it is your turn. This leads to having to make careful decisions about how to spend that precious action and keeps things from devolving into parry-fests. Sometimes you just have to take that big hit, and with limited hit points those big hits are exciting!

Zoo Mafia compares favorably to Toon? Now my interest is piqued.

I love the reviews! I'm really curious about dragonbane.

Adam

OMG Toon! and Paranoia (for when your players get too chummy).

Thanks for another fun video. Have you check out Forbidden Lands from Free League? I’ve read it but not run it. Very intriguing game. I like the setting but feel like the ramifications of the apocalypse in the game make little sense. Love the way halfings and goblins are related.

I’m loving the reviews and campaign updates. PDM you should do a vid on your thoughts on Deathbringer and all the new updates.

Monsters also auto hit with their attacks as well. But some monsters are classed as NPC's which attack as normal, such as goblins, orcs and skeletons

Good stuff!

Picked up Dragonbane at Carnage Con in Vermont a couple weeks ago, been reading through it and it reminds me of old school dnd meets runequest now to convince my 5e purist players to try it. In Dragonbane reactions use your action so if you choose to dodge or parry you use your turn for that round (or at least thats how I read it).

Backed Dragonbane as it was (atleast in my mind) supposed to be a streamlined and "fixed" Ruin Masters - they use the same art and standees. No idea how hard it is to get Ruin Masters especially in the states but it is an interesting game as - flawed ones tend to be.

Toon was blast. We had great fun when they put out the Toon Munchkin supplement. Been eyeing Dragonbane a lot. Just haven't decided to pick it up yet. But then I've dropped a lot of $ on Kickstarters recently.

I have run Dragonbane three times and everyone seemed to really like it. I have the boxed set and I hope to run the campaign at some point. I also love the art work.

Runequest is defiantly in Dragonbane's DNA. (The Ducks being a playable race is an indication.) The original Dragonbane was basically the Swedish version of Runequest/Magic World.

I am currently rewriting Deathbringer, so there will not be new updates for awhile BUT I will do something before Christmas.

Wow, Toon, there's a name I haven't heard in a while. Loved these reviews and I get what your saying about PBA system, I run MotW and it takes some getting used to.

Darrin

I am tempted to get Dragonbane now. More crying from my wallet.
