Media Enter The Nerdom Plays OSR-style Dungeons & Dragons – The Complete Adventure

[timbannock]

All episodes of Enter The Nerdom‘s foray into the old-school goodness of Dungeons & Dragons are out now! Follow along as hosts Stan Moroncini, Chad Cook, and Watson Bradshaw join special guest Dan Mason, and delve into the depths of the Puzzle Dungeon: The Seers Sanctum by Directsun Games! We used a hack of Ben Milton’s incredible Knave to keep the rules simple and straightforward, maximizing our play time and keeping the players on their toes with every death-defying encounter and mystery they faced.

Here’s the complete episode listing:

• Enter The Nerdom EP. 12 – Rolling for Initiative – Where we discuss the RPG hobby, D&D in particular, and run a short session zero.
• Enter The Nerdom EP. 14 – D&D Adventure Begins, Part. 1 – Our heroes take the first steps into the Seers Sanctum and immediately face trouble.
• Enter The Nerdom EP. 16 – D&D Adventure Continues – The mysteries begin to unfold, and survival is all but ensured!
• Enter The Nerdom EP. 17 – D&D Adventure Ends – An incredible end to the heroes’ adventure, and a look at what might have been!

You can catch all their podcast episodes here. Be sure to tune in, because they cover many amazing “nerdoms,” from Ghostbusters fans, the incredible Star Wars-based charity organization known as The 501st Legion, professional wrestling, anime, and so much more!

I’ve also released some of the assets we used for the game:

• Player Character sheet
• NPC Hireling sheet
• Editable version of both via Google Slides. You’ll need to click File > Make a Copy and save it to your Drive somewhere, then you can edit it.
• And here’s the final rules document I used, as a PDF formatted to be printed “Booklet” style in Adobe Acrobat.

I’ll put up a few more bits of information and perhaps some more adventure-specific assets I used in the following days on my blog at timbannock.com.
