    13th    Splatbook 64 – Out of the Dark Ages (Guest Starring DM Cojo)

    Make sure your chainmail is repaired and your blades are sharpened, because we are going way back in this episode! Join DMs Glen, Brian, Cory and Fulongamer and special guest and longtime contributor DM Cojo as we delve into another of the historical splatbooks! But before that is done, they answer emails about XP splitting with a multiclassed character, using monster poison on weapons, new players taking over existing characters, and the topic of dual-classing.   With those done, they move on to the topics. First they riff on gaining proficiencies, then they have a discourse on what to do as a DM when the party is incomplete. From there they tackle the deadly Aurumvorax, and then with a big assist from DM Cojo (who is a schoolteacher, dontchaknow), they discuss the second historical green splatbook, Charlemagne’s Paladins.   You can find us on Osrgaming.org, d20radio.com, Facebook, iTunes, Planetadnd.com and Twitter (@thacoshammer), as well as our home at http://www.thacoshammer.info from which we stream all of our episodes from the very beginning up to the present day.
