This Episode we're talking about, perhaps the most overused phrase in D&D; "Critical Hit".
It's the moment in every D&D game where people scream and jump up and down. But Critical Hits haven't always been part of the game. We discuss the history, the mechanics, the narrative, and the different variations of critical hits and misses. -
