It's driving me nuts, but I'd like to possibly use it for a noob session.

Keep on the Shadowfell although they don't play through all of it.

I think he's asking about the NEW podcast (the one with Wil Wheaton)

My bad, I thought he meant first season.

Umm isn't it the one with Thunderspire in the title?

Show
Keep on the Borderlands.

The first series of PA podcasts they were playing amodified version of Keep on the Shadowfell.

This series, to avoid spoiling adventures, they are playing a custom module.

What could be a cool DDI feature is to release the 'module' after the series has concluded?

I cant wait for Part 2. I laughed my arse off listening to part 1 last week. Just a gang of jokers hanging out trying to play D&D and not getting very far.

Howdy folks,

The Penny Arcade adventure is something I wrote specifically for the podcast. It will be published in Dungeon magazine next month (March).

Got to say it is absolutely brilliant. Best podcasts ever.

One thing that would be good if you do any more of these is to maybe include some images with the podcast, pics of the battlemaps as well as the drawings they are doing would be brilliant.

Still just to reiterate - Best Podcast Ever!!!

The podcasts are a resounding success, and I'm looking forward to doing more of them.

For the next series of podcasts, I'm toying with the notion of running The Village of Hommlet. Andy Collins and I recently collaborated on a 4th Edition update of the classic adventure for the RPGA DM Rewards program (Andy wrote it, I edited it). The adventure comes with an awesome poster map of the Moathouse, which I'm dying to use. Plus, I think it would be fun to have the players fight some giant frogs!

That sounds cool.

I think it would be cool to set up a series of celebrity D&D podcasts, whether they be from inside wizards or out. I would like to hear shelly play, her posts are pretty funny.

Good to know the title. Chris Tulach wouldn't tell us at DDXP.

I think WotC needs to host a VCL-podcast. Have us all in for a weekend to play some D&D.

We may not have the large public draw that the current celebrity podcast does, but I bet we'd get the forumites buzzing.

I am not sure. Given that some of the people complain about the vulgarity of the PA podcasts, I can guarantee that any that had me on it would rather quickly degenerate the the humour level of a young adolescent male.

That's not to say that I wouldn't accept a trip to Seattle to play in one.

I find one of the best things about the podcasts (besides the banter) is to hear how the characters powers interact and how they affect each other. Without spoiling the existing format (perfect as is), it will be good to hear how future powers work as the chars develop. Anything that facilitates this (DM) would be benificial (game mechanics) as well as entertaining.

Also an elaboration on the monsters powers being used would be informative.

hmm - poisonous frog spit and nasty uses for swamp gas coming up

Oh and how about a volunteer guest spot for us gamers out there. Might be tough for me, I’d have to come from Ireland but hey if I was asked! ;)

More more more!!!

Y'know. . . that sounds like a contest idea to me. . . (no, not a VCL-level contest (GAWDS how I wish!) but still. . . ).

I'm going to steal credit for this idea and see if I can't suggest it along the chain.
