The heist is on! Our heroes finally don their sneaky shoes, roll up their sleeves, and do the deeds they were paid to do. Crime is afoot, dear listener, and complex dastardly plans are the theme of the evening! Will this hodge podge team be able to pull off THE CRIME OF THE CENTURY and finally get those sweet, sweet rail guns?
In the far future town of Muskegon, the planning of crime is afoot. On a mission from the robotic arms merchant Alexander of Macedon, the Cincinnati Four (Five? Six? Who’s keeping count at this point) face their biggest threat yet: the All You Can Eat Buffet Table. Also there’s a cat on a jet pack, which is awesome.
Listener response to the first “Set the Scene” episode was so overwhelmingly positive that we decided to get another one in the feed as soon as possible. This time we’re taking things back to the roots, with Palladium Fantasy 1st Edition, and a little ol’ dungeon called the Tombs of Gersidi. For this session we’re joined by both Kevin Siembieda of Palladium Books, and Sean Casey, who plays the Crazy in our ongoing Rifts Actual Play series.
The story continues when the party meets THE DARK FALCON. Who is THE DARK FALCON? You can only find out by listening to THE DARKEST OF FALCONS, so you too can experience the revelation of the true identity of THE DARK FALCON. Insert falcon screech here! Also we do a lot of shopping. GRENADES! FINALLY!
Picking up right after our last session, we’re starting our first of what we plan on being a regularly-recurring new themed episode format for the show. GM John from Real Play Games again joins us to kick off what we’re calling “The Glitterbois Set the Scene,” a series of episodes that show how the Palladium system functions at the table, with single scenes that could be played in their game worlds. Instead of an ongoing campaign narrative, these will be all over the place, and hopefully feature characters and settings from all over the entire Megaverse.
I mean the title really does tell you everything. Someone gives Bronson a shotgun. Hilarity ensues. Give a listen to find out more!
Disgusting rats! The nerve of those cretins! And more disgusting rats with laser guns! The outrage! Our Rifts game continues, with a very angry cat and a very bad situation, which can only get better, right? …Right?
The Four from Cincinatti venture forth into the irradiated warrens beneath the ruins of old Detroit, in search of clues to the fate and location of their missing game master, Mike. Within these foul depths, they find danger, violence, and vintage 1990s porn cds.
We finally are back on the road once more, seeking adventure and answers! Shortly into this voyage, the party considers murdering Bronson for his crimes against humanity. Okay maybe only Riley and Mister Cat consider it. But the suffering is real.
In this episode, the heroes get injected, inspected, detected, infected, neglected, selected, and all kinds of groovy things. Riley learns to appreciate magical baking, Henry makes friends with both the townsfolk and Gorshkov, and Mister Cat takes a stab at offering someone a demonically delicious retirement package.
