    Curing System Jadedness with MERP

    S6E3: In response to my short episode on my frustrations with the system(s) I’m currently playing, I received good support and feedback from the community, including call ins from Anthony of Casting Shadows and Barry of A Song of Dice & Shadows podcasts, as well as an invitation from Jason of Nerds RPG Variety Cast to talk about Middle-Earth Role Playing and how it might still be a viable system that can scratch those spots that other systems aren’t reaching. That discussion forms the main body of this rather long episode. We hope you enjoy it. You can contact me at: scotinkyoto@yahoo.com, and Menion @OldShabbyGamer (Twitter). Cheers!
