Welcome friends and fellow companions! After a rough intro, the usual suspects open the episode with a discussion about the recent Drivethrurpg Bounty, and tackle the contentious issue of loaded dice at the table. After that, their attention is turned to Hector’s letter and ensuring that the rest of the sorcery/wizardry questions are addressed with usual Canticle efficiency.

Weldon (Sage of Solace that he is) also provides a wealth of reading sources throughout the show. For those of you without a notebook handy, he suggests:

The King Priest trilogy
Legend of Huma
Defenders of Magic trilogy
Price of Courage (gaming supplement)
Soulforge (both the Choose Your Own Adventure, and the novel)
Brothers in Arms
Renegade Wizards
Towers of High Sorcery (3.5 game supplement)

Hosts: Chuck, Ed, Tristan, Weldon, and John.

They also talk about ‘Curse of Strahd’, the DM’s Guild, the VOID, whether George R.R. Martin should be held accountable for his slow progress, and the X-Wing miniatures game.

After an interesting diversion in which the hosts consider which pony they would be, the team addresses the topic of how to revitalise Dragonlance. Each host presents a plan for how to breathe new life into the setting and reinvigorate the product line. Parallels to other WotC game lines are made, and the hosts debate the viability of a new Dragonlance line (and what that would look like). Underpinning the discussion is the agreed notion that Dragonlance is ‘a tale of friendship set against the backdrop of war’.
