WITH JUSTIN ALEXANDER, PANAVIOTIS LINES, AND ALED LAWLOR
Today, we’ve got a four-way with Ben Riggs! Listen and marinate in the brilliance of Justin Alexander, Panayiotis Lines, & Aled Lawlor!
Aled Lawlor and Panayiotis Lines are the creative duo behind Leyline Press. In just a few short years, Leyline has carved out a reputation for distinctive, atmospheric RPGs that blend striking visual design with elegant, playable mechanics. This includes Salvage Union: Beautiful art, and delightfully mashes up mecha combat, exploration, and socialism. Aled and Panayiotis are reshaping what small-press tabletop games can look and feel like.
And then we’re thrilled to welcome a name familiar to just about every GM who’s ever looked for deeper insight into the craft, a man whose influence on the culture of TTRPGs is hard to overstate, the human responsible for the Alexandrian, Justin Alexander. His essays, reviews, and innovative techniques, such as like the “Three Clue Rule,” have become touchstones in modern RPG discourse. His book, So You Want to Be a Game Master, is absolutely outstanding and has been read by I think four different tweens in my classroom.
