Hey guys,
This is Jesus Rodriguez from the Fandible Podcast and I just posted the latest session of our Dresden files game. If your interested give it a listen and if you like it, please comment. www.fandible.com (http://www.fandible.com)

Can i ask you a question? Why are there no compells? I listened to the 2 time travel episodes and they where highly entertaining. It just doesn't feel like you are playing FATE.
From what i recall there have been maybe 2 compels in the whole 3 or so hours of the game.
I also think you should have ruled the mind-fog thingy like an attack against the PCs not as simple endurance rolls that impose minuses (i don't think Dresden really works that way).
Don't get me wrong i love the players and characters in this and it's cool to see a time travel story but the things above really really bother me.

I really like listening to the AP podcast, especially a unique story that is not Neutral Grounds.
One thing I noticed, during the combat in the sewers, was the way the Emu's attack was handled. According to the rules, the bonus for Claws and the Inhuman Strength are not added to the attack roll - those do instead become added Weapon values in case the attack hits the target.

Dresden is FATE, and thus there are usually at least three, perfectly valid and rules-legal ways of handling the same thing. Not everything has to be done (or is even best handled) with Aspects.

Thanks for the comments guys.
Ill admit, we tend to play loose with the rules, but the emu attack was a screw up on my part. Next time we play ill make sure to check it again. Still, kicking a putty man to "death" was immensely satisfying.

Part 2 is up. Hope you guys enjoy.

We haven't played Dresden in awhile. Hopefully I can convince Daniel we need to get our medieval shoes wet sometime soon.
