Rollin' Dice Rollin' Dice

Welcome back to this continuing series of podcasts that follows our adventures (and misadventures) as we play through the Fighting Fantasy series of single-player roleplay gamebooks by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone.

In this fourth episode of the second series Andy, Rich and Tom continue the epic quest of Salazar Salazaar Spellington Esq as they journey through the pages of: The Citadel Of Chaos.

It's the twenty second episode of the Rollin' Dice Show! This week Andy and Richard are joined by not just one, but two guests! Regulars Jimmy and Tom are back on the mics.

With The Force Awakens finally available for home-viewing we've taken a trip to a long time ago and far far away to discuss Edge of the Empire, the RPG that's been gripping the four of us over the last few weeks. Long time listeners may remember that Andy ran the EotE beginner box with Richard playing when it first came out, but in the current campaign Rich is GMing, so there's lots of discussion from both sides about what we think of the system, and how fun the game actually is.

After that we set our targeting computers to the recently released Rebellion, none of us have played it yet but we aren't going to let that stop us from having opinions!

Games Discussed:

Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG
Star Wars: Rebellion

Welcome back to this continuing series of podcasts that follows our adventures (and misadventures) as we play through the Fighting Fantasy series of single-player roleplay gamebooks by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone.

In this third episode of the second series Andy, Rich and Tom continue the epic quest of Salazar Salazaar Spellington Esq as they journey through the pages of: The Citadel Of Chaos. As you might expect: things do not go well.

It's the twenty first episode of the Rollin' Dice Show! This week Andy and Richard are by themselves, just like the good old days when they had no idea what they were doing.

In a slight change to your usual programmed content Andy and Richard start off the show by discussing the article "Tabletop Gaming has a White Male Terrorism Problem," and how it's important to be open to listening to different experiences in the hobby and actually take them on board, whether you like what you hear or not. As two straight white men there's nothing we can say about what it must be like for women or people of colour in the hobby that wouldn't be better said by someone else, but just be good to people and accept that there's a world outside the one you know.

We then move on to three games we've been playing recently: touching on our first impressions of the decidedly difficult Thunderbirds, discussing what it's like playing the silly and cutthroat Epic Spell Wars at a varying number of players, and waxing lyrical about the superbly simple (but at times down right violent) Ghost Blitz.

Games Discussed:

Thunderbirds: The Board Game
Epic Spell Wars of the Battle Wizards: Duel at Mt. Skullzfyre
Ghost Blitz

As promised in the podcast, you can find Ghost Blitz on Amazon, for under £10! Here: http://amzn.to/1PToUHP
