Running Bases in RPGs or Did I Leave the Hellforge On? (Season 4; Ep 9)

Eric and Carl welcome our new co-host Chris and talk about using Nemesis NPCs in your RPG games.  These aren't necessarily the big bad evil character but can be someone (or a party) that gets in the player's way, beats them to the punch, or simply is an antagonist that adds interest to the campaign.

Eric, Carl and Chris discuss the fun and challenges that are present with gaming with small party sizes (1 or 2).  They give advice on running these kinds of campaigns and offer players advice too!   00:00 - Introduction 03:33 - Creature Corner - NEW! 09:00 - Main Topic   Visit us at https://…
