V5 Hunter 5th Ed "Lines Drawn In Blood" May 12, 2023

Show notes

"What lines are you willing to cross when
you push back against the evil that walks
among us?"
Lines Drawn in Blood presents a
series of four stories that can be played
individually or linked together to tell an
entire chronicle.
Pressure Test: Ghostly incursions are far
more than the weight of individual sorrow.
Outsiders: The residents of a small town
break an ancient pact and pay the price.
Blur the Lines: Occult symbols at a murder
scene drag Hunters into a race against time.
Alone in the Dark: Far from city lights, a
nest of monsters pull the strings of a lonely
northern town.
Lines Drawn in Blood is a story supplement
for Hunter: The Reckoning, A Storytelling
Game of Desperate Measures.

Dark Ages Werewolf (Revised) Apr 21, 2023

Show notes

Authors: Gavin Bennett, Bjorn T. Boe, Ally Chilson, Ben Grivno, Heather Grove, Harry Heckel IV, Heather Heckel, Shannon W. Hennessy, Ellen P. Kiley, James Kiley, Carrie Ann Lewis, Krister M. Michl, Matthew J. Rourke
Summary:
The 10 tribes of Garou once raged across the Dark Medieval, secure that none could challenge their power. They defended their sacred places without fear of man, Cainite or beast. But now that the first prophecy has come to pass, the werewolves know fear.
Note
We pulled this book down , read it and reviewed. Out of order. "Werewolf the Dark Ages" is up next. An easy mistake.

Kuei Jin 5th Edition - Hungry Ghosts Mar 17, 2023

Show notes

Join us as we go over the bold project that is deigned to update Kindred of the East to modern Vampire 5th Edition.
This book clears up the origin story of the original without abandoning the legacy material.
It does simplify the material to mechanically bring it to Vampire 5th Edition.
Find out what DJ and I thought of the book in this review!

Wild West Companion Dec 17, 2022

Show notes

The book is a solid look into WOD wild west life.
We get into some of the book but some interesting if not uncomfortable topics led us to where truth was stranger than fiction.

Why? we owe a more focused discussion to tribal weaknesses and Storm born.
