Using a GM Screen, Marvel RPG with Matt Forbeck

Using a GM Screen, Marvel RPG with Matt Forbeck

Author: Matt Davids November 16, 2022 Duration: 1:01:35

New York Times bestselling author and legendary RPG game designer, Matt Forbeck, returns to the podcast today. We have a lively discussion about many role-playing game topics. The conversation begins with advice for using GM screens and then turns to the Marvel RPG. Plus Matt gives out tons of game-master and dungeon-master advice along the way. Do not miss this episode!


Hosted by Matt Davids, the Dicegeeks.com Tabletop RPG Show is a deep dive into the craft and inspiration behind role-playing games. This isn't just a series of play sessions; it's a conversation about the tools that make those sessions memorable. We explore how understanding film history can shape a campaign's pacing, how myths from around the world offer templates for epic villains and heroes, and how archaeological discoveries can flesh out the ruins your players will explore. The goal is to arm you, whether you're a seasoned Game Master or a curious player, with a richer well of ideas to draw from. Each episode pulls from literature, game design, and broader storytelling traditions to help you build more compelling worlds and characters. Think of this podcast as a friendly workshop where the discussion might start with a Dungeons & Dragons rule but quickly travel to the roots of an ancient legend or the structure of a classic novel, all with the practical aim of leveling up your game. You'll come away from each conversation with actionable insights and a new perspective on how to weave knowledge into your storytelling, making every roll of the dice part of a more meaningful narrative.
