I know I've been absent for much of this year but I'm ploughing through the past sessions and almost caught up. Sterling stuff!

As for games, personally I've been trying and failing to get Wanderhome to various gaming tables for ages so that would be a nice change of pace, but perhaps one to different from what most readers have come to expect? Your recent weird West pitch sounds excellent!

I've been getting the Like notifications as you've worked your way through and I've been looking forward to the verdict. ;-)

Super curious how Wanderhome would translate to this medium -- it might be fun even to just do a single session -- 4-5 episodes of journey. I need to go deep on the playbooks and imagine a group of PCs that have some compelling stuff to work through sometime soon. Any of them jump out at you in particular?

Excellent as always! Kudos.

As for Wanderhome, naybe it's fatherhood, but the Guardian, Veteran and Vagabond could thematically work well together, perhaps all being pulled into protecting the Guardian's ward.

But, man, there's something about Moth Tender and Shepherd. Who wouldn't want to look after a giant moth or 'flock' of giant bumblebees?!

I see that Padrig has more of a tongue for prayer than certain other characters I could mention.

Wanderhome would interest me. I can't necessarily say the same for everyone that I'd game with.

That's my take also -- I think it'd be tricky to get a group game of Wanderhome in (except perhaps as a 1-off) but a short solo game could be just the thing. :)

Re: Padrig's prayer: Like a lot of folks, Pad's religiosity seems to rise with the direness of his circumstances. :-D
