  • Episode 29.5 - Combat Example
    Mar 8 2025

    Well. That was certainly. A break.

    If you're still here, thank you. I'm sorry I had to deal with a lot of life all suddenly, and this example isn't quite up to snuff (particularly the ending, but that's another story), but it's here. Finally. We're back baby!

    I do recommend re-listening to Episode 29 before this, as I literally clipped this out of that episode and therefore don't explain everything again. However, I also managed to accidentally save Episode 29 as a Draft, which meant I had to republish it.....So if you're wondering why it showed up again, apparently my subconscious needed you to remember it! Or something. Maybe I'm just tired....That's probably it.

    If you are feeling generous and want me to keep doing what I'm doing, I've added a tip jar - but no pressure: https://ko-fi.com/tiptheparadoxspirits

    Just a quick note explaining the delay on the combat example piece. Life is being a bit rough at the moment, but I'm hoping to be back in full force soon!

  • Episode 29 - Fight Club
    Dec 9 2024

    Time for a hefty episode about combat mechanics - something I'm sure everyone wanted, and most people do actually need. This episode is just the very basic and mundane combat mechanics, and I'll be doing another episode on the magic side of things for January's episode - after I get the combat example edited, of course!

    Happy Holidays to all who celebrate!

Excellent and thorough coverage

Jen has a good voice and is clearly passionate and knowledgeable about Mage. I may not necessarily be fully within the target demographic for this podcast, being someone who read Mage 20th cover to cover,* but I've found essentially no factual errors and I've really enjoyed hearing her perspective on everything. If Mage is going to have just about no content online, I'm glad this is one of the few things available.


* ... I have some regrets in life.

Reading Mage isn't one of them.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
