The Crusaders are back from hiatus with a new Episode! We welcome our good friend Mac Golden back to the show to talk about his module "The Fantastic Adventure". This was one of the first modules to be published by TLG. He also gives some follow up information about "Sword and Sorcery".
TLG was kind enough to give us permission to host the "Sword and Sorcery" rules on our website, as many of you were wondering how to get your hands on them.

The Crusaders dust of an ancient tome and examine the precursor to C&C. We review the short and sweet "Sword and Sorcery" RPG published by Troll Lord Games in the early 2000's. Join us as we take a look at the game that came before C&C and decide if it is still playable today.
The Crusaders bring on friend of the podcast Chuck Cumbow to talk about how he is working with TLG to bring C&C and other SIEGE engine games online. During these crazy times of Corona Virus, playing face to face is hard for most of us, and having the option to host your games virtually might be just what the doctor ordered. Chuck talks us through some of the available virtual table tops, how to join games, Twitch, Discord, and much more.
The Crusaders are back with our take on treasures for our C&C games. We cover awarding treasure, identification, creating loot, and much more.
