Adding Energy to Combat with Homie & the Dude - S3E17

Role Play Chat

Combat is a critical pillar of most tabletop roleplaying games. This is especially true in games like Dungeons and Dragons, where characters are built with combat powers and skills! It's easy to fall into a habit of looking at combat as a purely mechanical part of the game but there are so many interesting opportunities for the narrative of the game and for the characters personalities to shine through. Join us this week as Tom and Bodhi from Homie & the Dude talk to me about how to add energy and spark to combat. We also cover how those strategies translate into vehicular combat (like boats and airships). If you liked Tom and Bodhi’s insights (who am I kidding, of course you did) you can find them on twitter at @HOMIEandTheDUDE. You can also take a look at their website for more details about their content: https://homieandthedude.com/ Enjoy!
