But, y'all do get to hear a bit of what was created, that being the site "New Barquat".

But I hope you enjoy it regardless!   The Cast:   Ben -- GM (and wrangler of cats)    Eric -- Prangalar (catfolk scout)    Hagan -- Groth (orcish primalist)    Terry C -- Barnelby (gnome bard)    Steve (New) -- Kulweg (gnome alchemist)    Steve (Old) -- Karlax (crystal-based bioroid tech)      The setting is one of Ben's creation, and we'll let you discover it through the course of our story. Of course, feel free to ask questions in the Discord, as we can all be found there.

171: The Circadian Anomaly w/ GM Dave
This week we're actually talking about a novel, not a gaming book, but it's one written by none other than one of the founders of the d20 Network, "GM Dave" Villegas! Dave has written a novel called "The Circadian Anomaly" and is currently in the midst of a Kickstarter to help get it published in both print, and audio-book form.      The book has deep rpg roots, being based off a project of Jay Little's, and also draws inspiration from the d20 Network community.

168: "Rules Light" Hot Take
So, I kinda hate the click-bait use of the term "hot take", but none the less, here we are! I put forth a statement regarding what I think of "Rules Light", and  how it fits in this hobby we all love. Of course, this is Me and Steve, so tangents are followed, but I think we have a pretty thought-provoking discussion! I hope y'all enjoy it!   d20 Network Spotlight: The Order 66 -- https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/order-66-podcast-38220?   Game of the Week:      Steve G:  Vatborn to Kill -- https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/477953/vatborn-to-kill?affiliate_id=2018399      Steve S:  The Black Rainbow Society -- https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gavrielquiroga/the-black-rainbow-society   *We have an affiliate link with Drive-Thru RPG.  All this does, is give us a small percentage of your purchase cost on Drive-Thru as a "referral bonus".  It does not cost you, as a consumer, anything extra.*   We greatly appreciate the support and donations of our Patreon supporters: Eric Witman, Jeff McKinney, Joshua Gopal-Boyd, Dave Smith, Brett Bowen, Streety, and Nate Doverspike!  Y'all make keeping this going possible!   As always folks, have fun, be kind to each other, and go play some rpgs!   Join the conversation on our Discord! Me And Steve RPG Discord  https://discord.gg/5wWNcYW You can reach us at meandsteverpg@gmail.com On Facebook as Me and Steve RPG Podcast On Twitter @AndRPGs Our Drive-Thru RPG affiliate link https://www.drivethrurpg.com/?affiliate_id=2018399 Support us on Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/MeandSteveTalkRPGs We are proud members of the d20 Radio Network! http://www.d20radio.com/main/
Oblivion War: Episode 0

Oblivion War: Episode 0
This week we're returning to some actual play content! Join our motley crew (semi-formally known as "Those Guys") for the final conversation leading up to a (fairly) short campaign using the Genesys engine for a game that our GM Ben called "Oblivion War".   It's worth noting that we did have at least one more formal "session 0" before this, along with a good deal of online discussion amongst us all. What you hear today is sort of the capstone on all of our pre-campaign discussion        The Cast:    Ben -- GM (and wrangler of cats)    Eric -- Prangalar (catfolk scout)    Hagan -- Groth (orcish primalist)    Terry -- Barnelby (gnome bard)    Steve (New) -- Kulweg (gnome alchemist)    Steve (Old) -- Karlax (crystal-based bioroid tech)      The setting is one of Ben's creation, and we'll let you discover it through the course of our story. Of course, feel free to ask questions in the Discord, as we can all be found there. And in about 2 weeks, the adventure should commence!   We greatly appreciate the donations of our Patreon supporters: Eric Witman, Jeff McKinney, Joshua Gopal-Boyd, Dave Smith, Brett Bowen, Streety, and Nate Doverspike!  Y'all make keeping this going possible!   As always folks, have fun, be kind to each other, and go play some rpgs!   Join the conversation on our Discord! Me And Steve RPG Discord  https://discord.gg/5wWNcYW You can reach us at meandsteverpg@gmail.com On Facebook as Me and Steve RPG Podcast On Twitter @AndRPGs Our Drive-Thru RPG affiliate link https://www.drivethrurpg.com/?affiliate_id=2018399 Support us on Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/MeandSteveTalkRPGs We are proud members of the d20 Radio Network! http://www.d20radio.com/main/
