This week, Morrus, Peter, and Jessica talk about establishing atmosphere and tone in an RPG. In the news, D&D apologizes for Spelljammer race lore, Monty Python licensed RPG on its way, Paizo’s Lisa Stevens retires, a TSR News Update, and more! Plus Five Minutes at DragonCon with Egg Embry interviewing Steve Jackson and a brand new sketch about the party discovering their first Spelljammer ship.
