As Spring comes to a close, both Patrols are still out and about as they complete their final missions for the season. North Patrol takes off to find Saxon which leads them into political intrigue, bandits, and talk of potatoes. In the meantime, South Patrol leads a mail run complete with a sabotaged cart and deal with the most difficult obstacle of the season: Sable's parents.

As Spring dies down, the days are longer and the sun shines brighter, ushering Summer into the Territories. The Guard is always prepared for anything, yet unknown to them an ominous wind blows from the west...

The Fellowship has escaped from the Blue Mountain, leaving their damage behind. But they didn't leave everything behind, as Pan discovers an extra passenger on the Pumpkin Patch, leaving everyone to try and figure out what to do with them.

Returning guest Grant Howitt brings new guest Chris Taylor to play a session of their new game, The Spire. The Ministry of our Hidden Mistress sends Admiral Cranver Laurant (Chris Taylor), blood-drenched assassin Tears-the-Bone (Nadia), and hoslistic priestess Marchion (Grant) to investigate a small town where some of their number went missing. What secrets does Grist hold? Is this team's diversity an asset, or their undoing? How do you define "mission accomplished"?

The Spire is funding on kickstarter right now! You can find it here.

With weapons in hand and a wagon full of predator stink, Lily, Zeke, Sable, and Isolde must travel the whole Western border of the territories, from South to North. Under their cautious hands and watchful eyes, no predator will threaten the territories this year!

In today's podchat, Grant talks to Jacob Randolph of Liberi Gothica Games and special guest James D'Amato from One Shot RPG about running a tabletop kickstarter. We compare Kickstarter vs Patreon, mention a few common problems you'll run into while running a kickstarter, and tell you about some important Kickstarter tools you'll want to take advantage of.
