The Glitterbois #0037: Mechanoid Invasion Trilogy, Part 1

2021-04-28 Casts, Glitterbois, Product Reviews

We’re going all the way back to where it started: THE MECHANOIDS! Specifically, we’re taking a look at Palladium’s collected “The Mechanoid Invasion Trilogy.” When we met to record this episode, we really didn’t think we’d have so much to say about it. What was meant to be a 20 minute or so episode turned into a really long chat! As such, we’ve broken this up into a three-parter, to stick with our targeted short-form episode focus. Join us next time for part two!

Continuing from our last episode, this time we’re taking a deeper look into the Nightbane OCC from the RPG of the same name. This is one of the most unique and widely-varying character classes in the entire Palladium catalog. Listen along as we roll one up real quick and see just one example of how truly bizarre any given Nightbane can be. And let us know your most memorable ones, too!

Hey, we’re back with another “Intro to” episode! This time around we’re getting into one of Palladium’s most unique games, the modern body horror RPG known as Nightbane (or if you’re a hipster like NPC, it’s Nightspawn). If you have ever wanted to get a taste of what this fantastically monstrous game is all about, give us a listen. Then give it a play, and write us to share your own Nightbane stories!
