May Day Special: the Peasants' Revolt Pt. 1

The Maniculum Podcast

Happy May Day! We know how tiring it is to work all day only to have a few hours to prep for D&D sessions on the weekend, and that's why we're celebrating international workers' day this week by recounting the Peasant's Revolt in England. This historical account is FULL of ideas for an impactful campaign no matter your play style - combat heavy, political intrigue, or story driven, we can adapt all of it!
