You’re not gonna believe this folks.
This WIYQ! Cam and Drew go deep into Cameron’s Magic the Gathering format - The Partner Commander Gauntlet, recapping the playtest from last weekend, their findings, and the upcoming “third wave” of decks added to The Gauntlet.
Around the 50 min mark, Drew discusses the final month of art, his 4 day migraine, and production timelines looking forward to the PDF & physical release of The Epic of Dreams: Basilisk Edition (VERY FUN NEWS), as well as recent developments with artwork - see below.
The gang also casually discusses topics like UFOs, alien abductions, kid Jesus’ social life at school, and grand implications of intergalactic possibilities…

THIS WIYQ(!) features something very special: Cameron and Drew jaunt into a live RPG game design brainstorm session concerning stealth mechanics and action economy inside of Camerons’ impending zombie apocalypse role-playing game, ZRPG. Spoilers: It always comes back to B/X
As well as this, the gang talks about Basilisk Production updates, a lot of really exciting news (You’ll have to listen in and see why Cameron made this face!).
That’s right, we’re nearing the end, folks!!!!
We also discuss the new Magic: the Gathering set, and Drew’s ideas about running an all-philosopher Epic of Dreams campaign that also features… UFOs? (if you’re interested, send us an email or DM Drew on any of our social medias)

This WIYQ!
We have a guest host, the vomit punk barbarian Neon Lord himself, Brian Shutter, and talk about his new Kickstarter for the expanded 2nd printing of “Neon Lordz of the Toxic Wasteland”.
If you haven’t heard of this game, you’re going to want to sit in, because it’s everything you’ve never dreamed of but wish you had!
Not only do we talk about Neon Lordz as a whole, but we discuss Brian’s approach to Kickstarters, RPG community building, and general success as an indie publisher! Our trade secrets are yours to pillage!
We do end up getting pretty deep this week inside of the Neon Vortex of Brian’s bizzare brain matter, so here’s a TL:DR for Basilisk Production updates (we get into that section around 50 mins in):
Continuing The Gray Orphan’s Book, finishing up the last sections in the playtest booklet about the 10 royal powers, including the sorcerous syllables of their regal true names
Illustrations for the Basilisk have continued onwards
Tying up more loose threads in InDesign
This next week, Drew is going into the mountains and locking himself in a cabin to work on illustrations, dead to the world (until next weekend)
CHECK OUT THIS FLY MERCH THOUGH

THIS WIYQ!
Cameron is on a well(er)-deserved vacation with his lovely wife, so Drew is all you get.
From Drew: I’ve been working really hard on the Basilisk, myself, and have been thinking about Solo RPGs lately. In this episode, we go deep into solo RPG design theory, talk about several solo RPG products I’ve been using, as well as some of the grittier bits about the Gray Orphan’s Book (stretch goal with the Epic of Dreams Basilisk Edition).
Oh yeah, Drew also narrates his solo session at camp for your entertainment.

In this meaty episode, Cam and Drew open a can of worms that can never be resealed.
They discuss Volo’s Guide to Monsters, Basilisk updates, the Kickstarter life, Journey to the West, the new Magic: the Gathering set, “Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty”, and the relationship between Epic Poetry and …Anime?
What is the cosmic punchline? You’ll have to venture to pinnacle to find out.
Make sure you’re extra hydrated for this one, because it’s S P I C Y .
(The biggest bastardization of all was obviously, Dante’s Geryon usurping the noble beast known to the worthy as - The Manticore)
ALSO! Over the weekend, Drew was interviewed on the Upstate Coffee Collective podcast about the Epic of Dreams - we had an amazing time, definitely check them out!
