First Look: [Dragons Conquer America]


We were asked by Burning Games to play their new game about the colonisation of America by monsters who ride into war on dragons. It’s meant to be a game that deals with issues of exploitation and prejudice but honestly; I don’t think they take a hard enough stance.

We had fun playing the game, so I hope you enjoy listening to us fumble our way through temples, and jungles, and strange monsters. This was the first time we’d played a card resolution RPG on the show as well, so enjoy that. Continue reading “First Look: [Dragons Conquer America]”

[Blades In The Dark] Arcus 08

This week in the city of Arcus our scoundrels try to expand their turf even further. They case notions of a bakery, consider opening a casino, and even attempt to gain stakes in a Pali ring. 
But are their forces conspiring against them? It seems like someone keeps getting in their way.
Hit play and travel to Arcus with us to uncover more.

EDITORS NOTE: Sorry about the bean bag noise. We tried to edit it out, but our voices sounded really weird. The bean bag is not too common a noise in the recording.
