Join Frank and Peter for a little slumber party (lol!), as they settle in, after playing The Endless Slumber together, to discuss their investigators and talk about the competition that's still ongoing (entries can be sent in to the details below).

Join Frank for the seventh Think on your Feet, in which Calvin Wright continues his investigations into the madness and mystery surrounding the King in Yellow.In Think on your Feet episodes, a live play series of Arkham Horror: The Card Game, I endeavour not to edit much at all. Sometimes I cut a bit of shuffling sounds or abbreviate some of my longer pauses (a chap's got to think!), but otherwise, it's uncut, unaltered and meant to feel like you're with me at the table. There may be mistakes and misplays, but hopefully some successes too. In light of the Patreon support and because I want to enhance listening to Drawn to the Flame, I've added some atmospheric details too. Hopefully they elevate the experience. Here's the deck before Echoes of the Past: https://arkhamdb.com/deck/view/203093.  Here's the deck before The Unspeakable Oath: https://arkhamdb.com/deck/view/203111. During the edit I spotted a misplay I made while playing. At 26 minutes, I believe I take a 4 action turn. Litt

Join Frank for the sixth Think on your Feet, in which Calvin Wright finds himself in the sleepy town of Arkham, taking a trip to the Ward Theatre for the premiere of The King in Yellow.

He's a dab hand on the trumpet and his music has the power to wake the dead. In the face of unspeakable creeping doom, he's unfazed, even cool. He's a mystic with the power to move you... ladies and gentleman, Mr Jim Culver! Join Peter and Frank for another investigator-specific episode in which they talk about the second mystic we received in the game, the Dunwich Legacy's very own Jim Culver. Jim has a trumpet and loves skulls, but is there more to this musician, particularly in light of the seal mechanic and the expanded cardpool?

Join Frank and Peter as they talk about playing Arkham Horror solo... and not that two-handed malarkey we've been hearing rumours of, but the true solo, real solo, all by myself solo that's all the rage these days. Which investigators are good by themselves? What pitfalls might you want to avoid? Why am I still talking to myself? Amazing logo courtesy of this guyJoin Drawn to the Flame on Patreon: www.patreon.com/drawntotheflameListen on iTunes: right hereSubscribe to our RSS via Feedburner: right hereDirect download: right hereEmail us on drawntotheflamepodcast@gmail.comTwitter is here and Facebook is here.Thank you, as ever, and ever so much, for listening and subscribing!

Most people have had a chance to stray into the wilds of southern Mexico, or are in the final stages of planning an expedition this very minute. Either way, you'll probably want to gen up on what's ahead... So join Peter and Frank as they talk about what they've been reading in anticipation of The Forgotten Age, including Lovecraft's jungle adventure stories, some jungle textbooks and a field guide to swinging on vines and creepers. In the jungle. There's not too much discussion of the scenarios themselves, but if you've not yet cracked open your deluxe box, maybe do that first, just in case!

Join Frank for his first look at the player cards of Threads of Fate, the first mythos pack in The Forgotten Age cycle.

Join Peter and Frank for a FIRST LOOK at the player cards - especially the Guardian player cards - of The Forgotten Age deluxe expansion. We dive in with a brief overview of the new Guardian investigator, and then look at what new tactics these macho men (and women) can pack. Spoilers, naturally, for The Forgotten Age. UPDATE: we made a rules error in our Seeker episode: Ursula's reaction ability, because it creates a 'full' action, does also trigger attacks of opportunity should she move into a location with an enemy. Frank will add the full wording from Matt Newman to Arkhamdb soon, but in the meantime, please note we got it slightly wrong 3 episodes ago. Amazing logo courtesy of this guyJoin Drawn to the Flame on Patreon: www.patreon.com/drawntotheflameListen on iTunes: right hereSubscribe to our RSS via Feedburner: right hereDirect download: right hereEmail us on drawntotheflamepodcast@gmail.comTwitter is here and Facebook is here.Thank you for listen
