As we say at the beginning of this episode, the outpouring of support from Cyberpunk's Creators, R. Talsorian Games, was beyond anything we could have expected and are truly grateful for their support during this short campaign. Send them good vibes however you choose to do so, please

Sun, 02 Feb 2020 06:42:50 -0000

Wrapping up a game can be bittersweet. This was our first real step into packaging a game for others to watch live on Twitch, after the fact on YouTube and listen here on HSA. It means so much to us that you listened and this game specifically opened so many doors for High Shelf Gaming&Adventures.

I'll always have fond memories of Cyberpunk 2020. It's been with me for 2+ decades now. We are excited for Cyberpunk Red and will definitely be playing it! tune in on all the places linked below.

S2E1 - Basic D&D "The Sacred Texts!" [Part 1]

Tue, 11 Feb 2020 06:15:52 -0000

Welcome to Season tw o of High Shelf Adventures!

This season is our actual play of Basic Dungeons and Dragons, the 1985 Red Box rules. Rich takes the helm as the Dungeon Master! and he runs us through a short campaign titled 'The Sacred Texts!' I enjoy poking a bit of fun at our own love of the old version, OSR, and our nostalgia for how things were.

I will say, Rich has the unique gift to take the classic D&D trope of players vs. the DM and make it tongue in cheek good times. I'm so glad he ran this and we got to play.

This is a fun light-hearted campaign, expect some hijinks as we do the classic stat roll... 3d6, straight down, no swaps... THEN you make your character! so yeah, don't get attached.

Characters are: Swiss Sweed the Clumsy Cleric (Dex of 4) Balthazar Magic-user with wine Melrig Thunderaxe, Dwarf Rey the thief/bard Nevile Pemrose Carter, Elf
