S2 Episode 6 - Mundane Medicine in Fantasy Games

In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we review mundane medicine in fantasy games which typically also offer magical solutions to healing. We look at medicine skills across several RPGs and examine where different RPGs do things well or poorly, and what you can do make mundane medicine meaningful in games like DnD 5e.

Special thanks to October Sky for the question of the week this week.
