Dragonmeet Podcast Party, 2019!

• Nathan Dowdell (Star Trek Adventures)
• Jonathan Pay (London RPG Community)
• Chris Parkinson (Dragonmeet)
• James Barry & Sam Webb (Black Cats Gaming)

Well, we finally made it team! We got invited to record in the lustrous Dragonmeet Podcast Zone this year! (It's like the Zone that never made it into the Crystal Maze for budget reasons).

We thought we'd see how many people we could get on for a mini-chat at the end of the day, and we think we did pretty well!

Nathan Dowdell is the rules guru behind Star Trek Adventures here at Modiphius.

Jonathan Pay is a resident GM with the London RPG Community.

Christopher Parkinson is a volunteer at Dragonmeet 2019.

James Barry & Sam Webb are both behind-the-scenes Modiphius people, but are also Black Cats Gaming.

​Special thanks to Mira from the Podcast Zone who helped us get our nonsense sorted out!

Matt Colville (MCDM Productions - Kingdoms & Warfare / Strongholds & Followers)
For the final interview of the third series we had a chat with Matt Colville of MCDM Productions.

We talked about Kingdoms & Warfare, as well as its predecessor Strongholds & Followers, and how the two books will work together. And, if that's not enough we also chatted about rpg streams, what things MCDM might make in the future, and the perils of expecting cake when you're going to get pie.

​This podcast also contains a smattering of swearing, so be warned if you're might be offended or listen with others.

​And, if that wasn't enough, we also touch on using Patreon as an RPG content creator, knotting strings for time travel and the subconsciousness of bodyguards.

Christoffer Sevaldsen (Black Void Games)

We locked the office doors and prevented Christoffer from catching his plane until he had talked to us about Black Void.

This was a little bit of an impromptu chat, so apologies for the audio being a touch wobbly at times. However, to make up for it, you can not only find out about Black Void, its unique setting, and how Christoffer planned for his Kickstarter campaign, but also listen to an exclusive preview of the soundtrack for the game.
