Fantasy 1e - Mind Mage!

In this episode, I flip to page 123 of the core book, going over the mind mage class, the abilities and then talk a little about the psionics in general. I thought this was a fun class, but probably not something I'd include in my fantasy game, I just don't like mixing Psionic abilities with fantasy. This has always been a personal preference that I've had with all games, not just Palladium. Hey if I am running the game, I can do as I please. If you are running it and included it, I would never say a peep!

Palladium Fantasy - Adventures in the Northern Wilderness Overview & Thoughts



Welcome to another video! In this video, I go over a book that got me thinking back in the day about adventures in the snow & ice. This book is out of print and replaced by another book, but is still full of great ideas and information for your 1e campaign. I think its a valued addition to anyone's book shelf if you run Palladium Fantasy.

Palladium Fantasy 1e - The Summoner!




Today we flip to page 113 of the 1e book and talk about Summoners. I also give some advice on how to handle circles and the possible abuse of the class. I am also going to reference Book 3, High Seas P24 to answer some questions about summoners as the core 1e book leaves things too open.

TLDL: Palladium Fantasy Recap - Session 1


A new series I started on my channel to give reports on how my game was going, called Too Long Didn't Listen, because you can listen to each and every game session my group goes through over at rollhighordie.com but as we know, most people don't really care for actual plays, even if they are 1 hour or less.

So I came up with a video series, to compact the recaps into small bite sized chunks where a person can enjoy it and get some DM insight on how things went and what I tried. 

Seems to have gone over well!

House Rule - Memory Recall


 

There comes a time in your campaign that you've given out some important information and it flew past your players, or maybe some time passed between gaming sessions and no one remembers or wrote it down.

Fantasy 1e - The Warlock

In this very episode we flip to the pages of 76, 77 and 78 to talk about the Warlock, a fun class to play and a good class for a newbie who wants something more then just a melee person. A wide range of things to choose from, this class has a lot to offer. Experienced players can be really inventive with this class in how you use the spells!

House Rule - Skill rolls, when the character doesn't have the skill..


 

There comes a time in game a player will want to do something with his character, but does not have the skill for it and its frustrating to that player and even more frustrating when no one in the party has the skill as well.

Fantasy 1e - Wizard OCC

Flipping to p 51 in the Fantasy 1e book, we go over the Wizard Class and is quoted as one of the more difficult classes to play out of the Magic Classes. Decided to break this out as its own video, due to the amount of things that needed going over. 23 minutes is a little longer then I normally like, but it is what it is, I hope you enjoy :)

House Rule - Ways of handling Multiple Attacks?


 

So everyone has their methods of how to handle multiple attacks in the Palladium system.. Some of the early systems like Palladium Fantasy 1e, the Mechanoids and a few others had 1 attack and slow progression towards more then one attack. Later on with games like Heroes Unlimited, TMNT and RIFTS we see that some characters get 4 to 5 attacks right out of the gate. 

So what are some ways to handle it.. well what I do is this.

What is SDC in Palladium Fantasy 1e?

 
I did a short video explaing exactly what SDC is in Palladium Fantasy 1e in hopes to help those out there who maybe confused by it. Personally I think its rather simple in 1e Fantasy world as it got a little more complex as the game evolved.
 

House Rule: Ambidextrous

 Mom Drawing With Both Her Hands Ambidextrous - YouTube

Not everyone can be ambidextrous, its not something you can easily do; I BELIEVE overtime you can train yourself to use your other hand, but its not a very easy journey to take. Thus in roleplaying games I like to ask players to determine what is their dominate hand, mostly because I am tired of not knowing and when it comes to a character losing a hand, or arm.. the player always saying, "well good thing that I was a LEFTY instead of a RIGHTY!" When their right hand gets injured.
