Hi! The Gauntlet has recently launched a new podcast called Comic Strip AP, and we have a lot of PbtA stuff on the menu. The link below is to our G+ community where we post and discuss new episodes. Join the community, take a listen, and tell us what you think!
Here are more details…
What is Comic Strip AP?
Comic Strip AP refers to both the name of our actual play podcast, as well as the specific method for producing those actual plays.
Rather than record and release a 2-3 hour game session with three or more participants, the “comic strip” method involves two participants recording and releasing approximately 15 minutes a week. It is meant to be an analogue to old serialized comics, such as Prince Valiant or those found at the back of Dragon Magazine.
The “comic strip” method has the following advantages:
-A more intimate, focused story, since there are only two participants.
-A higher-quality story, since the participants have a week to think about upcoming scenes.
-Easier to manage from a production standpoint.
-Easier for listeners to fit into their busy schedules.
Which games are you playing?
We currently have four active APs. Judd Karlman & Richard Rogers are playing Sorcerer, Tim B & Noah Jay-Bonn are playing Dogs in the Vineyard, Fraser Simons & YG Mitchell are playing Young At Heart, and David LaFreniere and myself are playing Dungeon World.
We have the following games lined-up for the future: Cthulhu Dark, Monster of the Week, Don’t Rest Your Head, D&D 5E, The Sprawl, and more!
What if my friend and I want to make our own Comic Strip AP?
Easy! Get in touch with me. You will be asked to produce a test episode. Once I am satisfied with your test episode (with sound quality being my no. 1 concern), you can begin producing regular episodes. Once you have at least three complete episodes, we will launch your AP!
Here is a Hangout we did related to participating in Comic Strip AP. I highly recommend you watch it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4FumAYU1I4
