If I was to buy a Simon shirt, it would be this one :)

I like that when we play RPG's we have REALLY good days, and there are some plays that are just: "Really?? I have 75% of chance to make it right and I miss 4 times in a row?"

It was a great episode, not only because "The Allies" finally had some things go right, and not only because Simon finally found his father (sort of), but because it was so much fun watching YOU get excited for YOUR characters. It was clear that you were having a blast, and that was great to see and to feel that energy come across to your viewers. Keep up the great work ( or is it play).

It's a Christmas miracle!! "Simon sucks......until the dice explode!"

Just want to say that I also think these videos are absolutely awesome. Gotta love the roleplay of the characters and the production value of the show is just top notch. Been thoroughly enjoying all the episodes and am always excited to watch the next one. Keep up the good work. :-)

I loved it when Simon finally got to his old village. The mood of the narration and choice of music went so well together, it was better than a scene from a really good film - and there's a shortage of really good films.

The improv work, character/narrative development, voice acting and energy is top notch! Awesome job! 👍😊

So much to love about this episode. The “dark Druid” concept, Simon’s three-shot show, and of course, his father’s phasing in and out of existence. Wow.

Who needs Netflix, this is better :D

I really dig this series. It' such a nice change of pace from other group RPG shows, and it has this wild energy that carries it through each scene and setpiece.

The idea of a mercenary kill team is always cool.

How about “Simon Succeeds ... Sometimes.” or “Simon succeeds?” This was an excellent episode as always.

I know I’m late to the game-don’t know if your still reading the comments to your old videos, but absolutely love this series! It’s my new favorite thing! I’ve been binging for the last few days and can’t get enough! Keep it up

Such a change of pace from the last 15! Another great episode! I think we should wait another to change until we see if his luck holds out before changing his catchphrase.

Brilliant as always! Love it. You inspired me and my friends to start a new journey to the unknown.....with no GM choosing our fate. Everything is possible now my friend. Keep up with your brilliant show.

Simon couldn't shoot fish in a barrel without Stonebolt #StoneBoatRocks

Wow, fantastic episode...I am so excited to see what happens next!

Love the minis and terrain. Great episode!

30:13 I love how glasses spawn on your face and gets immediately removed again.

Nice, was waiting for the notification that this weeks episode was up!

I know it's probably tiring to edit, but watching you go through combat gets me hyped! Thanks for introducing me to Savage Worlds too! Looking forward to next season!!

I stop watching TV at night before go to sleep. I just turn on this amazing channel and watch until I sleep. Amazing! I hope season 2 starts fast :)

Oh! That twist at the end was fantastic! Well done! There is an Arcane Background Edge in Weird Wars II that pertains to individuals being haunted. Also, there is both necromancy and ritual casting in the Horror Companion setting book for Savage Worlds. The book is a great resource.

Clearly that temple quest was a master class in combat for Simon.

Really enjoyed the episode!! Great energy coming from you Trevor. Maybe this was the episode of ‘Simon Luck(s)’

Very fun episode.

This is a fantastic channel! I have been binge watching since I found it yesterday. The ending of this episode gave me chills and gooseflesh! Keep up all the fantastic work Mr. Devall!!!

What an incredible episode. So many great ideas and what an amazing twist! This is by far the best “live” play out there.

What an exciting fight!!!! Team Simon Doesn't Suck prevails!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for the work you’re doing here. It’s an inspiration to get my own solo RPG running.

Unbelievable twist! These scenes have been wild, nothing less than amazing!

I imagine the face that Isabel made when the caster cast the baclash🤣

THIS WAS A GREAT EPISODE! Please keep 'em coming.

I’m so shocked at how much I love the way you do this, the characters are so well done and you keep every part of it exciting

It keeps getting better and better! This is the most engaging play I have ever seen!

What a heck of an episode! After such a long run of difficulty, it's great to see Simon & Co get some real success-not just against the mercenaries, but in finally finding Simon's father! And that twist at the end... oh boy, this is getting epic! You've probably already heard this, but have you thought about trying the Game Master's Apprentice deck? It's another Mythic-like solo aid, but it's a deck of cards instead of a chart with dice. Since you already use poker cards for initiative, it might be a fun addition to your arsenal. Each card has a ton of great prompts (I particularly like the sensory prompts). Personally I like it better than Mythic, but it would work great as a companion for it as well. Anyway, eager to keep up my marathon! I'll be caught up before long, haha.

I like simplicity, how about “Simon Sucks?” I love what you do here, great energy, and loving the scatter you made.

I don't know how you do it but this just keeps getting better and better! I can't believe that Simon is a god of markmanship now, haha! Happy holidays, Trevor!

Hi Trevor, Really loving the show!! I've been following since episode one and it's been a great adventure. :) I just noticed in the battle you forgot to add in The Drop bonuses for the two ranged attackers in the merc group. 4:14 - The ranged attackers had The Drop (+4 to hit and damage) 5:31 - The archer had +4 for The Drop, but you only counted it as 1 (Rolled 2 - 1 = 1) and missed the +4 6:41 - the spellcaster should have also got +4 but you didn't mention it Sorry I know it's too late now, but could have turned the tide of battle. Awesome episode as always and great surprise at the end. :)

...and you're right about the archer, he should have got the +4, which would have scored a regular hit in that case. That might have altered the beginning a bit, *if* he had shaken Arne (or worse), but Fane's roll exploded to a 12 - and neither Arne nor Edbert came anywhere close enough to beat it (so a 16 with the +4 wouldn't have changed anything).

​@@MeMyselfandDieRPG Hey no worries at all Trevor. Sorry, I can get a bit details-orientated so I pick out things like this.... hope it's not annoying. :) I'm absolutely LOVING the series.... it's definitely my favourite roleplaying series on youTube. I normally do GMing for Savage Rifts so this series has inspired me in my games. I've bought Mythic GM Emulator and have been playing some solo games myself, as well as using the Mythic system to generate some encounters and side-missions for the game I run. It's been good fun! Not sure if you've seen it but there's also the Adventure Crafter which also suits for solo roleplaying to generate more detailed encounters with some really interesting plots (kind of like Mythic Emulator but more detailed): www.drivethrurpg.com/product/261479/The-Adventure-Crafter And Creature Crafter is good for interesting creatures to create: www.drivethrurpg.com/product/62850/The-Creature-Crafter I've used both and they're quite good.

First let me just say, what an ending , just when I thought it couldn’t get better their it goes. Second, after watching that extraordinary fight play out I would love to see Simon and company to finally get some recognition for their deeds. I mean they bested what was said to be a bounty hunter of renowned skill, cleared out a temple for necromancy, Saved a what I assumed to be a “on the map” town (since it was booming) and then showed his mercy to said renowned bounty hunters, who I’m sure if they live to tell the tale would have to mention how Simon killed with such precision and could of took their life if he wanted to. I’m just saying he should have some stories about him floating about, even if they don’t mention him by name they should know of his actions at least.

When I imagine Edbert, I see Bronn.

Missed opportunity. Could have said, "I think in this case he is shaken, but not stirred"

VERY fun episode! Simon *dominated* that encounter! I was curious if the thought that ran through your head was, "Gosh, I spent a good hour or so on these characters only to see them drop in the span of 5 minutes." Cause, yeah, Simon doesn't suck anymore, but perhaps, it should be #Simonscores Ha! Probably too many months late on a "name that merch" request, but there you are. Drawing ever so closer toward the end of the season. I love the end of this one and I *really* like the direction you went with it. Wrenches, baby, bunches of wrenches. Poor Simon, the dumb schmuck! He has one lucky battle and yet everything still goes against him. So, no, #Simonscores should instead be #Simon'ssorrows. Yeah, that works better.

Few plot holes in the story, most noticeable ones are the time span between Simon’s parents capture and his fathers escape. Assuming that it’s been a few years, it mean his parents has to have been in the necromancers crypt as a captive. However it could have been for more than a couple of years cause it wouldn’t make sense unless the necromancer was experimenting on them and only managed to turn his mother while the father remained resilient until his eventual escape. Still I wouldn’t put their capture for more than 3 years. So we can assuming that Simon is only 18-21, considering his last saw his parents as a boy. Another thing was the father escaping with the sword, if he was a captive for sometime, how did he manage to get his blade to escape?
