I have only so far created one campaign for myself using Ironsworn, but always love how no matter how many times I watch a new podcast, player, or new campaign from this world, they are always so unique and distinct! This world offers so many layers for us to play with and I am already loving yours! ☺⚔

[@thebadspot]

Thank you so much!

[@butnooneshome]

Just about to play my first game. Great to see how you mix the fiction and the mechanics. Also - great story.

[@thebadspot]

Thanks so much! Good luck in your first game. Try and stay out of trouble!

[@s.g.5994]

I am so excited for this! I found your channel pretty recently, and have been binge watching everything. Love Starforged, but was really interested in hearing your storytelling chops take on this fantasy setting.

[@thebadspot]

Thanks so much and welcome aboard! I hope you enjoy this short run as much as I've enjoyed playing it.

[@Olooriel]

Loved the dream sequence in the beginning, great idea!

[@thebadspot]

Thank you!

[@Hammahlovesyou]

Love it!! 💕

[@thebadspot]

Thanks for watching!

[@shaneintheuk2026]

What a great video. I’m always delighted to hear you create a story on the fly. Not much different from the original story but so much extra narrative. You still got into a fight, you still took harm but by using Face Danger and your assets you kept the harm to 1. Just brilliant. 😀

[@thebadspot]

Thanks Shane!

[@brads2041]

Tio survived the first session!

[@thebadspot]

Outdoing himself!

[@robertkimble8385]

Spoilers bro

[@thebadspot]

😂

[@tiantuatara]

So glad you are back!! This was great. Glad to see Tio last an entire episode.

[@thebadspot]

Me too! Already demolished his personal best!

[@ignacio3460]

I love how you edited and subtitled the dialogue! The title sequence timed to the music is also cool as hell

[@thebadspot]

Thank you! I really dig the title sequence.

[@carpelo]

Meanwhile in the Ironlands, a great narrator comes from The Drift right from the stars, to create a brilliant first session from an old story. Btw, amazing music...and congrats on keeping Tio alive this time 😁

[@thebadspot]

Thanks so much! Glad you liked the music too, it's fun how it came about. Maybe I'll talk about it on stream at some point.

[@DavidMarquez-io6ze]

I've only recently found your podcast and they are all wonderfully done!

[@thebadspot]

Thank you so much!

[@BravesSheet]

As someone who recently started Starforged and is loving it, this is really interesting to hear, this is where it all started so to say. Its inspiring to me seeing where you make a roll and where you let the fiction play out.

[@thebadspot]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@darthaelris2059]

If there are torchweilding bandits between you and your dinghy, you may want to go to a clinic.

[@thebadspot]

I really must get that checked out

[@ValerieGlen]

Please, please keep sharing your fantastic stories!

[@thebadspot]

I will! I can't be stopped!

[@richardkeenan1250]

Thank you for another amazing story session!

[@thebadspot]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@thesudaneseprince9675]

Chrysalids are genuinely terrifying 😢

[@thebadspot]

Absolute nightmare fuel!

[@TonyLS9A]

Newfoundland. Never ever going there. That was the XCOM mission. Great play through. Sorry it’s taken me so long to get to it. Bravo.

[@thebadspot]

Yes! The Newfoundland tourist board have never recovered.

[@shaneintheuk2026]

56:33 ooo risky move in Ironsworn. Secure an advantage doesn’t give you a big bonus and you risk losing advantage. Gain Ground in Starforged is much safer.

[@thebadspot]

Mate, tell me about it. These fights are a nightmare!

[@panzer00]

What does "CW" mean? Content Warning?

[@thebadspot]

You got it

[@ike_d5402]

What is the dice rolling app that is being used in his videos?

[@thebadspot]

Hi! It’s an iOS dice roller, you can check it out here: apps.apple.com/gb/app/dice-3d-7pixels/id1263339902

[@ike_d5402]

@@thebadspot Thank you. I'm on Android, but found something similar. Loving your content, BTW, and shared with my friends 🙂

[@thebadspot]

Thanks so much for watching and sharing!

[@DennisCNolasco]

If I wanted the combat to be less difficult like Starforged, what would be some good modifications to do?

[@thebadspot]

Honestly, I’d just straight up use the combat moves from Starforged. You might need to tweak some assets but I think it’s a pretty straightforward change. The OG Ironsworn combat is just not quite as smooth as Starforged which flows beautifully.

[@DennisCNolasco]

@@thebadspot thanks!
