Step 1 : send letters to all the dukes informing them of a future visit (make it very polite but also obvious it's compulsory)
Step 2 : win the duel as a show of personal strength
Step 3 : go take back Leuchten as a show of military / strategic strength
Step 4 : Tour the rest of Westemar, starting with Drannsmund as a show of favour
Rule 69 truly got me!!!! What you give you shall receive, I love it!
AAAHHH ship was gone and just happened…. yas. Great session with tons of intrigue.
Excellent episode. I’m really enjoying pushing the problems on feudal rule onto Wilhelm. He’s gonna have to learn how to juggle cats with his foreign neighbors, the nobility, and the Academy. No offense, Veo.
Plz pls plzzzzzzz… start early and let us hear you shoot the breeze it makes us feel closer to you as people.
Plus i learn random things about atypical chrismas movies
I think each episode should start with some casual banter
Kelly is playing this so well, but Monty keeps throwing in the monkey wrenches. While this noble situation is a very real concern I feel like it falls in the grey space of what a player knows and can relate to vs. what the character knows and would react to.
As someone who is DMing a Drakkenheim campaign I need some spelling on those Duke name lists. I'm a backer of the new book but I can't wait a year and then be wrong about every noble family name.
The appropriately numbered rule 69: what you give you too shall receive
i would support king wilhelm
That’s an incredible pick for rule 69
been watching on twitch so i haven't been commenting. Here to say this is still awesome! The party is strong and the players play smart, and yet the problems just keep coming! and they are not small problems either. In a sadistic kind of way, watching the players squirm under 5 different moral and practical dilemmas at once makes this a uniquely enjoyable experience! I wonder if it's even possible for it to resolve happily. I guess we'll find out next time :)))
I say keep the conversations in the beginning. That was most enjoyable
“Rule number 69 – what you give you will receive”
Hmmmmmmmmmm
Loved the call backs in this one, an excellent show as always.
Verona is very politically savvy, and would be a good advisor/consort fir Wilhelm.
Kelly "and what else do we do…" You all bring joy and in this latest installment, 2 hours of fun to thousands of fans world-wide weekly dude. 💕 If you sell the movie rights please play the roles yourself…

Shoutout to Kent McDonell for making the list since ep1 – ep12.
Rule n° 69 is the fairest rule!
And the apothecary story was canon!
I know it’s mean and not something I would do to one of my players, but I kind of hope Wilhelm’s absurd naivety leads to his gruesome death. Come on Monty! Game of Thrones this campaign! 🤣 Just kidding…. Maybe…
Omg rule #69: you should give to receive
rule number 69, what you give you shall receive……. it took me a moment to get it 🙂
I hear that these nobles feel ignored.. but. I hope Wilhelm will slap these nobles with a dose of "reality." An invading army at your door and they are sitting at home. Get off your asses and go help or you don't deserve a seat at the table.. sitting at home wining about not being corted is how a child acts.
Anyone else catch the double entendre with rule 69?
Grappling vine cantrip allows you to make grapple checks within 15 feet of yourself as though attacking. It will hold up without your concentration but concentration is needed to add your spell modifier.
Love you guys.
"Allow me to summon the Lord Commander, and be very serious about it."
deep breath
"VEOOOOOOOO!"
Heavy lies the crown.
I love the secret depth of Pluto Jackson. Where most people would just play the big tough jock as just the big tough jock, Joe plays Pluto as the tough jock when his friends or allies are around, but with a subtle sense of loss and confusion when alone. He needs his friends maybe even more than they need him, and it's a beautiful character played masterfully.
Great episode. I love how you twist the players after they have decided on a course of action.
Anyone else get the "Charlie at the Conspiracy Board" meme in their heads when Monty is explaining all the nobility of Westemar?
I love that rule 69 is "What you give, you shall receive". Nice
