My wife had a craft show this weekend, which meant a bunch of time in the car for me. At indoor shows like this one, we take both cars out, I help her set up on day one, and come home. On day two I show up a little before […]
We’re back with the second half of our unofficial two-parter on angels! (And yes, you can catch up with our first half here.) This time around, we’re discussing how to make angels interesting in your games. First, though, we’ve got some business to catch up on, including GaryCon 2019 (which […]
As always, you can find all of the posts in this series by clicking here. After the ball of pain and controversy that was February, I am so glad to be getting back to less unpleasant topics. Let’s take a look at Eisenstadt’s military forces and law enforcement. Armed and […]
It’s time for our Patreon-selected topic for the quarter, and this one’s so big it’ll take up two episodes! Our topic this week is angels, and with so much material to work with we just had to break this topic up. This episode has relatively little pure gaming content, because […]
This is long, and it is controversial – it’s ABOUT controversy, for goodness’ sake. Again I ask for grace from my readers. -Peter Two weeks ago, I wrote about brokenness in gaming. And now I have to write about it in the church. This is an ugly season we find […]
Well, it was inevitable, folks: When we committed to doing a series on The Ten Commandments, we knew we’d eventually have to talk about adultery. Fair warning: This episode does talk about sex. We’re not explicit or anything, but keep that in mind! First, though, we’ve got a few other […]
A cautionary note: if the names in this post aren’t familiar to you, exercise some care when googling. Both Mandy and Zak are current or former sex workers. I’m not entirely sure which tense it is and frankly it’s not relevant enough to what I have to say for me […]
We’re tackling a difficult and complex topic in this episode: How to roleplay characters with mental illnesses with sensitivity and grace. First, though, we’ve got a bit of other business to talk about, starting with our forthcoming appearances on City on a Hill Gaming (including Jenny’s very cool special episode, […]
As always, you can find all the posts in this series by clicking here. We’ll be getting back to Eisenstadt soon, but I thought I’d take a break to show off some new character options this week. Fantastical Kinds of People One thing that you can count on finding in […]
We’ve got an unusual bonus episode this time around—one that in many ways recalls our old New Years’ resolutions episodes! We’re implementing an objectives and key results system behind-the-scenes here at Saving the Game, in order to grow the podcast and make sure we’re doing everything we can to improve the quality of our show. […]
The Seedy Underbelly is Always There One of the things you can count on in any large population center is crime, and Eisenstadt is no exception. The massive amount of money, people, and goods flowing through the city at any given time present a tempting target for the opportunistic, and […]
With Jenny traveling for the holidays, we’re back to Grant and Peter on the mics for an episode! We cover our Christmas stories and Grant’s Christmas stream of the Link to the Past Holiday Randomizer, and remind our listeners about the very exciting upcoming Actual Play series we’re doing courtesy of […]
