You win by surviving, getting loot and magic and enough experience points to level up. This whole "story telling" thing is not part of original role playing games. That was only added on within the last 10 years or so, along with all the baby-gamers who need their characters to be indestructible super powered creatures because they can't stand the thought of their pc dying due to bad decision making skills. There are millions of us gamers out here who still enjoy the old school, *original* role-playing options.

Artificers might still enjoy studying the -radioactive- magical decay and the -mutations- anomalous effects it can cause. It's all in good fun, a post-apocalyptic fantasy setting where magic is now cancerous could be a great survival setting.

thank you for this reccomendation :) - i will have this in a corner of my mind ... and whenever my players will fail in an epic campaign .. this will probably the next setting we play :) so they can see what the failing did with the world !

Holy shit! Is this someone actually using the 5e engine after it went CC?

Hey! Creator and one of the designers of Broken Weave here. Thanks a bunch for the video. Its a real kick to see people enjoy what we made.

Have you tried Numenéra or any other of the Monte Cook games? Cypher System has a great balance between rules light and rules heavy since it's very easy to tweak to your liking with many integrated optional rules for different genres across many books.

It turns out that good reviews are only enhanced by kids having a good time popping in occasionally for mild havoc.

Such a great review. Was definitely a little sad as I backed it on Kickstarter and it was touted as 5E compatible, but I'll definitely mine it for ideas rather than the book itself.

Havens are an excellent example of the maxim, “mechanics support the fantasy”. This is something that Free League, Modiphius, and Cubicle7 really understand in contrast to some…other, larger RPG publishers.

I've had my eye on this for awhile, but I haven't seen a review until now. Thanks!

Alright waiting for a second video later today

Great introduction!

Hey, I just discovered your channel and love the vids on W&G. I'm just getting into it now and wanted to ask, do you run combat in a sort of grid or in a "theater of the mind" setup? I'm not sure which would work better as both have their pros and cons. Thanks for the videos!

I did not run candlekeep, my players were 5 clerics...yeah... I somehow managed to gaslighting them into believing than whoever is trapped into the shield is actually an angel, they ended up selling their souls to it for a safe passage into Avernus

Leaving a comment because I’d like to play Wrath & Glory with you! I’ve been ramping up on the system/lore to hopefully run a game soon. I’ve only played a one shot of it so far.

More W&G content please !

Thanks for making this video! I was curious to where to start with Wrath & Glory and had no idea that this even existed! Definitely going to give it a look!

Late to seeing this but Wrath & Glory is hands down my favorite system of all ttrpgs talking purely mechanically. My main complaint about it is it being 40k coded even though I love 40k. Mostly because I'd love to have a similar system for Warhammer Fantasy or a generic system to apply to any setting I please (a bit like genesis from fantasy flight games). I love the tiers of play clearly denoting the tone and power level of a campaign, getting XP every session to represent incremental growth, and the numerous ways to customize and live out almost any character idea you'd like! Not to mention how good dice pools feel, there is also the fun of the campaign deck from the OG version, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Wrath to make narrative declarations!!

I thought that the Icons were an excellent mechanic/addition for TTRPGs. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on 13th Age 2e (and whatever Icon changes might be included) after it releases. 🍻⚔

If you don't need a book for the setting and your know well the universe, I recommend using Fate instead. I did it with a light version of Fate rules and it worked wonderfully.

Descent Into Avernus is the most true-to-life DnD module ever written, because if you don't do what the cops tell you to do, they'll kill you.

Major respect for making an update a year later. I appreciate it!

Great video. It also hurts my heart when people leave out Icons. I'll point people to this next time I hear that.

i dont play 13th age but your channel must be watched ! (more of a skill system than a level system fan :) )

15:28 weapons and attacks 18:05 talents and 21:05 feats 23:07 one unique thing 28:22 icons 34:27 linking your one unique thing to the icons 35:59 backgrounds

Thanks for making your Videos!

Pelgrane Press is really an underrated publisher. Nice video on one of my favorite RPGs!

This was GREAT! Always excited to see you put out a new video. You were one of the reasons I picked up Ironsworn and I love it. I am actually running a bi-weekly game of it over lunch over Roll20 for a group of co-workers who wanted to play an RPG at work.

I started GMing because I'm the one who bought the box and that was when UA-cam didn't exist. I got the rules wrong, I was a bad GM and we had a blast. People forget this hobby existed long before there was a way to compare yourself to others online. It's easier than it looks and it's a ton of fun.

Glasscannon is really cool (currently hearing their Traveller series) but i always reference the drakkenheim campaign as a good example of what is achievable in your private game :)

just because i like you content ! first comment even before i watched the video :)

Genuinely I'm begging new players to *not* start with d&d5e or d&d in general. You will get trapped with arguably the most incurious part of the ttrpg scene, the kinds of people that refuse to ever even think about playing more games. Imagine getting into videogames and falling into a crowd that only plays call of duty and refuses that games can or should do anything else.

💯

April Fool's risky click.

It's baby Becmi streamlined for those with an even shorter attention span.

thanks for the info. it helped me very much👍

Great content on 13th Age; thank you for making these videos!

Great informative video, thanks !!

Im in a warhammer group, and i just want to play a narrative and do custom killteam missions for the battles

$80 for Kult rules book? Damn, video and tabletop games are expensive in North America.

Works in marketing, Brando sando fan, ttrpg nerd that pivoted to solo play due to lack of friends. My brother! 🤝

I would love if at some point maybe you covered the beastiaries of Abundance of Apocrypha vs the threat assessment xenos. Its a cool beastiary, but with the massive amount of work thats gone into AoA it almost feels unnecessary. Great video!

JUST picked up the Rulebook for W&G! Cannot wait to figure this one out so I can run games for my group!

My big question is, does the combat feel tactical without a grid? like, do decisions made in combat feel like they are the dominant contributor to success in combat? or is it more just the dice deciding things? I really enjoy gridless systems, but I have found that beyond basics like focus fire, there often isn't much to think about tactically. That works at tables where all the players are happy to put all their brainpower into coming up with descriptions and dialogue during combat to express their characters, but whenever I have players that I know want to engage with game mechanics primarily during combat, I break out the grid systems. would 13th age provide a tactical experience for them without me having to prep detailed battlemaps with engaging terrain?

"Wrath and Glory isn't grimdark enough" Tell that to my party who fights 2 out of every 3 fights with the fear status hahaha

I am currently running this campaign. To make the PCs care about the scenario, 2 are from Balder's Gate (one a member of the Flaming Fist, another a bard from the upper city), 1 a druid from the nearby Cloakwood, and also made Reya a PC (I've had a a few players start and stay with the campaign, a few left early, and a few came in later--hence Reya as a PC). Another hook is that one of the PCs unaffiliated with BG or Elturel is a Paladin of Bahamut, so that has worked nicely to hook him to the Tiamat cultists and then Tiamat and her minions in Avernus. They are currently level 9 and searching a wrecked flying fortress and the players seem to all be aving a good time.

I'm incredibly frustrated with how complicated the character creation process is in 13th age. This game is supposed to be suitable for players of any experience level, but then the very first thing the system wants them to do is this confusing. Thank you for making this video, it will be very helpful to me when I eventually need to walk some players through all of this.

I was going to comment on the changes you made to the module for your group- then you said the quiet part out loud. You like other systems because you’re there to tell a story, not play a game (5e). More people need to branch out like that. D&D isn’t the only game in town, Avernus won’t fit every group.

I have the leather cover book, just need to find friends willing to play 😢

I play with people who refuse to try anything other than 3.0/3.5. I own a good portion of the 13th Age books and have run it a few times, and it's by far one of my favorite fantasy RPGs due to the flexibility in character creation and how it has a decent amount of mechanics but plays so much like a rules-light game.
