#15 [INTERVIEW] - Playing Published Adventures with Tana Pigeon (Mythic)

Hello and welcome back to the Solo RolePlayers Podcast. Today on the show I am proud to present the fantastic, inspiring, prolific and downright game-changer to the solo roleplayers hobby, official friend of the show Tana Pigeon to talk all about, and give a live example of that slippery and mystifying of concepts, playing a published adventure solo.
Tana talks through a few of the techniques she has used and written about in the past for how to do this, but also presents a brand new way to play a published adventure solo as written about in her recent issue #50 of Mythic Magazine, the 'Deconstruct the Known' method.
We wrap up the second half of the show by picking an unprepared adventure at random and actually showing off how the new technique works. It was a heap of fun and I am sure it will give you some ideas and confidence to try and do something like it yourself.
Enjoy!

#11 [ACTUAL PLAY] - Starforged

Hello and welcome back to The Solo RolePlayers Podcast. Join me today on this first episode of the new year for another actual play of the much lauded Ironsworn: StarForged. 
In this episode, as always, I get a book off my shelf and get it to the table with the minimal amount of preparation possible. I hope to give you an idea of what the game is like and give you some courage to just start playing yourself without getting bogged down in the need to feel like everything is perfect and you are totally prepared (you never are anyway).
We do a lot of world building in the ep and give you a feel for what it is like setting up a story with this system, and move into testing out some of the mechanics and getting the story off the ground toward the end. 
Hope you enjoy this long overdue play of StarForged.
