This advice episode is turned on it's head. Phil "Chatty DM" Menard joins me from the great state...er, country of Canada this time around. But instead of building a PC and giving some DM advice we build an encounter for my personal campaign and give some advice on building a cohesive party.

Primal Power attempts to explain what the primal power source is and provide characters who use it with more options. For this review Jeff is joined by Will Wong, Quinn Murphy, and Marcelo Dior. And they examine if the book successfully accomplishes that goal (here's a quick preview...it does). It was a really fun discussion that no one quite wanted to end, so I hope you enjoy it.

Regular contributor Will Wong reviews and leads an interview about the Abolethic Sovereignty with author Bruce Cordell. All in all, books sound very interesting to me and it's a great way to see how 4e D&D and Forgotten Realms is impacting your novel lines. Enjoy!

To review the DMG2 I called upon the professionals of Quinn Murphy (At-Will) and Dave Chalker (Critical Hits). All in all this book has some faults, but we generally thought it was fantastic. One of us even claimed that it was the best version of any DMG ever released...that's high praise. Listen in for more.
