I watched it over the past few days. Some of the dialog is really cringeworthy, but younger audiences probably love it. The art / animation is lovely, and the story is pretty decent so far. Poor pacing, of course, because shows intended for bingewatching just tend to ignore it.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Pre-gen from Frank Mentzer's module, The Needle , 1987. I knew this was insulting and gross when I was 14. At the time I didn't know who Frank was, since I only played AD&D.

He lived in a hut built over a dug-out at Squirrel Narrows. Found frozen to death in the 1930s by Kettle Falls pioneer Oliver Knox; Upton was perched lifeless in the snow just a half-mile from his home. Shunning civilization, Upton defined the word hermit. First spotted rowing his crude log raft on Namakan, no one knows how he got there. Upton’s accent implied an English heritage but any personal inquiries brought a stony silence. Some suspected him a man fleeing the law; others saw a bizarre outcast; everyone knew he was peculiar. Just five feet tall and wildly unkempt, Catamaran wore hacked-off pants and walked barefoot with a stick. Winter demanded shoes but no socks, a cast-off Mackinaw, and a trailing cap made from the leg of old underwear. He was oddly religious, and suspicious of being poisoned. Surviving on snared rabbits and fish, he ofte...
I enjoyed it a good bit.
ReplyDeleteHow do you like it?
ReplyDeleteMy kids are watching it, and they get mad if one starts watching it without the other.
ReplyDeleteIt's not bad. Very anachronistic references, language, etc. And with the art style, it's basically a D&D campaign written by millenials.
ReplyDeleteIs it good? I'm trying to convince Iris.
ReplyDeleteI like it a lot. Humor, action, great animation and backgrounds.
ReplyDeleteAaron Ehasz is responsible for a great many things I enjoy, so the girlfriend and I will probably check this out after 3%.

ReplyDeleteIt’s not a stand out must watch but it was fun. The season finale seems a bit abrupt.
