It's another mixed bag for this episode! Join DMs Glen, Fulongamer and Brian as they dish out another helping of 2e goodness! After answering a couple of emails, the fellas turn to the matters at hand. First, they break down the War Wizard kit, then go in depth on the combat rules for 2e, and wrap things up by naming their favorite D&D authors.

Email from DM Ghostzapper (update on players abusing oil and greek fire, seeking advice on players fixating on a minor point in the game to the DM's dismay)

Email from DM Joe (complimentary email)

We are making our pilgrimage for this episode! Join DMs, Fulongamer, Brian, and Glen as they bring you another helping of 2nd Edition goodness! After answering emails, the guys turn to matters at hand. First, they break down an interesting ranger kit, then they bring forth another installment from their God Talk series, this time focusing on the deities that round out the elvish pantheon. Then they bring the episode in for a landing with a synopsis and discussion of one of the most popular D&D novels of the late 80s.
