Episode 5: Long-running campaigns with Jake
Manage episode 403664656 series 3546084
In this week's episode of Campaign Spotlight, we chat with Jake about making the most of players' busy schedules, dealing with important story beats happening offscreen, and Philadelphia energy. (This is our third guest this season from the Delaware Valley and yet somehow this is the first episode where Wawa comes up.) Very light spoilers for Neon Genesis Evangelion.
This conversation got us thinking about ways to get a lightweight game session up and running really quickly. In next week's Flashlight episode, we try the very lightweight Radical Catgirl Anarchy.
Our guest Jake was kind enough to share with us some of the cutscenes he built for his players. Check out our website for some screenshots from those (very charming) cutscenes.
Our guest also mentioned a bunch of useful resources:
- Hamill Illustration, Filibuster Frog, and Amanda Rotten for illustrations.
- Tale of an Industrious Rogue for inspiration.
- The r/battlemaps subreddit for battlemaps.
- FoundryVTT for running tabletop games online.
