A bit under three weeks ago, Che Webster (who creates the Roleplay Rescue podcast) tossed down a few thoughts about declaring defenses first in the Dungeon Fantasy RPG. It was helpful at his table and addressed some concerns that his group expressed.

I commented about it here:

Commentary: Che Webster’s Defense Roll Reversal

we then did a bit of back-and-forth on the commentary sections of each others’ blogs…and decided the time and subject matter were ripe for a new podcast.

That’s here:

717 The Defense Roll Reversal with Doug Cole by Roleplay Rescue

As always, it was a fun conversation. This one was very brainstormy as we went back and forth looking at the implications of the idea from the perspective of play speed, verisimilitude, and emergent mechanical behavior.

Give a listen.
