Down a Matt, Patrick and Art call an audible and dive into a topic that briefly came up in the Rosewood Abbey post-game discussion... what RPG would you want to run in another system? #ttrpgs #podcast

Lake Michigan did not disappoint.

After some time away, it is so good to be back. Also, so far, the Paths of Glory Rally the Troops implementation is fantastic!

Up next for HotT, War & Peace! Nappy getting some time in the limelight. For its 45 birthday, War & Peace got a 7th(!) edition. If you have thoughts on this classic, we'd love to hear them and will share the best comments / questions on W&P next episode.

Even though I probably won't play 95% of the games they talk about, I'm really enjoying @historytable.bsky.social . They talk about wargames in an accessible and engaging way, so even if you're just curious to have a look into the wargaming world, they're worth checking out. #boardgames #wargames

Matt and Art are back for some more Souls talk, this time breaking down Demon's Souls 1-2: The Lord's Path. #demonssouls #soulsborne #darksouls #darksouls2 #DarkSouls3 #bloodborne #podcast

Recording a new episode of History on the Table for the first time in 2025 this Friday. We're back.

Today is the HotT Clash of Champions! Pacific War knocked off Roads to Gettysburg II. Empire of the Sun took down The U.S. Civil War. Now we have a clash of Pacific Theater titans. Herman v. Herman. Pacific War v. Empire of the Sun. Which game are you picking?

Find someone that looks at you the way @awd2.bsky.social looks at @sinscaptain.bsky.social @blacklodgerpg.bsky.social

We we are gearing up for a 1-on-1 play of @pelgranepress.bsky.social 's Swords of the Serpentine. Saying I'm looking forward to running @blacklodgerpg.bsky.social through it is an understatement. The setting development and world building is pretty damn brilliant. #rpg #tabletoprpgs #GumShoe

Alright, time to dust off the ol dusty microphone! Feel free to post any questions for the show, discussion topics, requests, etc on our Discord (link in show notes) or drop an email. Let's get this baby up and running again just in time for spooky season!

In the... 7 months 😳between episodes, we missed a lot of our annual content. We have a lot of catching up to do...

Matt and Art get back to talking about Souls games. This episode discusses the Nexus and opening level in Demon's Souls (Gates of Boletaria 1-1). #demonssouls #boletaria #souls #soulsborne

Been a minute...

Finally tried Rosewood Abbey. Two things, this is much more of a Session Zero and things go completely off the rails because we haven't recorded together in a while (we had a blast though). @rolistespod.itch.io @foundryvtt.bsky.social #rosewoodabbey #carvedinbrindlewood #actualplay #ttrpg

Annual pilgrimage to Viking Con was this past weekend. Great games were played. Amazing food was shared. My favorite event of the year!

It is time for the annual History on the Table Community Every Wargame Ever Gauntlet (workshop title) Whatever it is called is time time for Every Wargame Ever* to run through our tournament bracket on Discord. Retired past champions are Roads to Gettysburg II, Pacific War, and Empire of the Sun.

Just another reason why this is the best time of year... the History on the Table Top 20 Games of All Time (2024 Edition) is here! Listen in for Kevin's, Rich's, Matt's and our community's top 20 games of all time. Available wherever you listen to podcasts.

Morning. My wife has started selling these lovely, hand made & carefully sustainably sourced craft kits. It's a tough market out there, would mean a lot if you could check it out/share? www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1...

Happy to see the influx of activity on BlueSky. The best place (for us) is still our Discord server where you can find Rich and Kevin hanging out as well. Links are available in our show notes. Pop in and introduce yourself.

Setting up a solo playtest of #OrderAndOpportunity ”Making of the Post-Cold War World Order” tonight, upcoming from @gmtgames.bsky.social Playing the Democracies US and EU versus the Authoritarian bots China and Russia.

Like riding a bike... Back at Last Hundred Yards action tonight! If we ever do the ever ambitious 'Tactical WWII' episode, Last Hundred Yards would easily be my favorite. The dream for 2025... 100 Yards Weekend... LHY all weekend only interrupted by a destination college football game.

A little behind the scenes clip to start off the week.

A little teaser for the next episode of History on the Table! We just finished a ranked choice polling for the Top 20 Games of All Time (according to the HotT Discord Community). Here is the spoiler-ized graph for 2024. Any guesses for the 2024's number 1 game?

What's on the Table this weekend?

A pause from Downfall. Battle of Mackinac Island on the Table.

Heck of a weekend of gaming.

Finally, Republic of Rome is back on the Table!

Viking Con 2024 is underway. Official mascot is ready.

Great semi-final matchups yesterday. Empire of the Sun narrowly escapes past Pacific War and U.S. Civil War is unable to conquer Roads to Gettysburg II! Empire of the Sun vs Pacific War in the final!

Character building in Pathfinder 2e is a game itself and I love it.

Moving on to the Elite 8! The matchups today are blowouts (so far). Setting up an interesting semi-final tomorrow!

I've only been GMing a few years but last night I TPK'ed the geriatric psychic detective agency under the streets of Otari. Not my goal but it served as the perfect consequence to a pair of adventures who bit off more than they could chew. Anyways, Pathfinder 2e is an amazing system.

Back to the good stuff tonight with @blacklodgerpg.bsky.social

The Field of 32 narrows down to the Sweet 16! January's HotTest tournament heats up in February!

Episode 56 we talk Plantagenet and other stuff, mainly Plantagenet. It rocks. It's a banger. It's worth your time. Check it out. Episode 56 - it has a title but it's all about Plantagenet. historytable.podbean.com/e/episode-56...

Throw in a couple of new to me RPGs plays, Dragonbane and Starforged, January was an amazing month. What'd you play in January that was good?

Next War Con V is back at HistoriKC Fest 2024 featuring round robin play Friday and Saturday of the convention. tabletop.events/conventions/... historikcfest.com
