09/19/2025

This time... On City On A Hill...

A time of partings, endings, and a few new beginnings.

We hope you enjoyed Wanderhome, even half as much as we did. Genuinely a fantastic system and one that will challenge you, like emotionally, if you let it! Big shoutouts to Jay Dragon and Possum Creek Games for this one. It is truly visually beautiful, and the system seems very intriguing!

Fuzzy Friends (A Wanderhome Adventure) - Chapter 4, Part 2: Thanks, I Hate It.
02/07/2025

This time... On City On A Hill...

The group begins to explore a monastery that is recommended to them. They also begin to do some self-reflection in a place of glass and memories, even if they don't always like what they see back.

Oh and fair warning, this episode does contain a post-show story that is very amusing from Grant's extended family. However, it does include discussions of alcoholism, the effects of post-war PTSD, and abuse.

A Throne of Leaves: A Kingmaker P2E Actual Play - Episode 10 - "it's the principle of the thing"
11/25/2024

This time... On City On A Hill...

Apologies. For a brief period early on in the recording, I made the mistake of opening a live stream to check the audio for a radio broadcast for work, forgetting it would pick up on the recording. So a little bit of University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Mocs football bleeds over. I cut a bunch of it out but can't get all of it or lose game audio. Sorry about that! No copyright infringement intended!

This time... On City On A Hill...

New show, who dis? Ryan, Greg, and Cameron sit down for the first episode of our new roundtable show! A discussion show where we look at our gaming, gaming history, and thoughts on different systems. Plus sometimes even how our faith interacts. And we try new things, like "Bible Class", where we take a Biblical figure and "make" a ttrpg character for them! We hope you enjoy, as always!

This time... On City On A Hill...

Just a fair warning, this episode contains some heavier topics and discussions. Still very family friendly and very us, but a fair amount heavier in tone and topic than is typical of City on a Hill.

Ryan hangs out for a few minutes and talks about the (almost) six years of City On A Hill Gaming and how the (tentative) plans for the coming year(s) are taking shape.

Oh and I forgot to say it on the audio, but a huge amount of thanks goes to Peter, Grant, and Jenny from StG. Especially early on their advice was critical. And pivotal in how we got going. And they have been there all along helping out. So thank you. Go check out their catalog...
