It’s the latest Pocket-Sized Play, The Gauntlet’s premiere actual play podcast! Today we’re playing John Harper’s Lady Blackbird from One Seven Design. Our characters have only 30 minutes to make it off the brigs of the Hand of Sorrow! (Well, I did edit out a bit that went into overtime, but their speediness is still impressive!)

Big thanks to special guest Pat Perkins, and thanks as always to Timothy Bennett and Tor Droplets.

Gauntlet Portland ROCKED IT tonight.

Gauntlet Portland ROCKED IT tonight.

Gauntlet Portland ROCKED IT tonight. A group of strangers, bound only by listening to Gauntlet podcasts, descended to play Adventures on Dungeon Planet by Red Box Vancouver. With no shortage of Dungeon World hacks, I can safely say this retro-sci-fi reskinning is one of my favorites.

Meet: A mutant white ape in search of friends, an android killbot exploring to find his lost creators, a calculating technician championing the art of rational thought, and a lost Earthling with the means to repopulate a planet.

Apocalypse World 2nd ed MAP

I start any AW campaign with drawing a 5 minute map while we flesh out ideas. There are always raiders, and there’s always Burn Flats. I don’t like to dwell on the setting, so we’ll then launch right into characters and leave nice, glaring blanks on the map.

Then this sits in the middle of the table for every session, and I’m always amazed at how much we use it. The map is more an impression than a reliable guide to the world, and yet we’re pointing at its landmarks all the time.

What’s your experience with drawing maps during play?
