Welcome to the Saving Throes podcast! This is my Tabletop role-playing game podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a topic or theme along with my take on current happenings in the world of tabletop role-playing games and semi regular updates on the games I am currently involved with, or new games or products I have come across.This is the first ever segment of Behind the Screen, a segment on the show where I discuss the mechanics from my games and discuss rules I like or don't like. I thought this was the perfect opportunity to discuss a D&D 5e supplement that inspired me to move ahead with my own old school 5e based rules system. In this episode I go over some of the most notable rules mods presented in the 5e Hardcore Mode resource from Runehammer games. While not every rules tweak presented is a winner, the material here really got my creative juices flowing! If you haven't checked it out before, it is worth your time if you are a fan of the OSR style of play. Tune in to hear how I have applied these rules to my own games and how I have further tweaked or even made my own new rules wholesale after being inspired by this resource!If you would like to reach out, you can reach me at [email protected] - I would love to hear from you!
