E155 - Dungeon Mastery - Power Creep: Bigger, Harder, Deeper, Faster

Tuesday Jan 11, 2022

Balancing has always been a major issue in tabletop game design, so this week on the It’s A Mimic! podcast, the panel of Dungeon Masters discuss one of the subtle issues at new tables, and that’s Power Creep. It can be a little difficult to define, and it can definitely sneak up on Dungeon Masters, but this meta discussion should shine a little light on a topic that will be familiar to most seasoned Dungeons & Dragons players.

E154 - Port-FOE-lios - Hags: Set the Coven to 666 Degrees

Tuesday Jan 04, 2022

In this second episode about Hags, the panel of Dungeon Masters is going to address the dark lady in the corner: The Night Hag. She’s a little bit different from the other Hags in Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition, but that doesn’t mean she’s any less insidious. If anything, she’s even worse. And by that, we mean better! You see, more than half of the It’s A Mimic! podcast has faced off against one of these nasty old crones, and chances are good that if you’ve played Curse of Strahd or Dungeon of the Mad Mage, you have as well.
