Hey we looked at the schedule and realized we were not going NEARLY fast enough to get Threadspinner ready in time for the playtest to start this spring! So, from here on out, we're gonna be doing a lot more off-mic designing, and use these episodes to partially talk through some design questions, but mostly to update y'all on the work we've been doing throughout the week. For instance: last week, we told y'all we'd be designing The Executed this week. Instead, we've designed The Executed, The Mixologist, AND The Divinity!

Welcome, one and all, to THE YEAR OF THREADSPINNER, starting off with THE MONTH OF THREADSPINNER. We will be releasing new design sessions and new game drafts every week this month as we grind away at getting the game ready to start playtesting this spring!This week, we talk through our ideas for how the combat system should be modified from Eidolon, and revisit equipment to further codify the ideas we've talked about with it previously. We also wrote up a whole to-do list so that we can stop forgetting about what we said we should be working on!Edited by LukeThis episode is possible thanks to all $3 and up Patreon subscribers!

GM: IrisLeviathans: Maxie, LukePilots: Zoe, LexiEpisode Count: 6The year is 2254. The Terran Alliance has ruled space unchallenged for the last 30 years. The Outer Sphere's resistance lies scattered across the Sol System, their military thoroughly annihilated, their adherents quietly forming small communities where they can.But the Outer Sphere preserved one, small hope before they were crushed: a hidden station housing the last two surviving Leviathans. These giant, sentient mecha lie in hibernation, hoping their Eidolon Drives will once again be awakened by worthy pilots.The Terran Alliance has spent these 3 decades hunting these lost weapons down, knowing that if they were to ever rise again, even Earth itself would no longer be safe.

One final podcast for 2025, to ring in The Month of Threadspinner!On this episode, we get serious about how quickly the deadline to a playable first draft of the game is getting, and get cracking on getting this bad boy ready for primetime. We start by working out the details of The Hero, one of the first playbooks—sorry, patterns—we came up with for this game, and in so doing identify the blank spots we still need to fill in.And because there's still a lot of blank spots, we also resolve to (try to) put up a new Design Session every single week in January to get this thing over the finish line!Edited by LukeThis episode is possible thanks to all $3 and up Patreon subscribers!
