Assorted news and events updates for our studio as of April 2022: Wagoncon! Let’s plays! Youtube podcasts! And More!
The Glitterbois #0091: Book Club for 2022 Q1 – Robotech Genesis by Jack McKinney
What began as our “February Book Club” is now wrapped up in this episode (totally released on time thanks to the magical science of imaginative revisionist history!). If you haven’t read this book yet, but you plan to, don’t listen to this episode yet! If you have, or you are not planning to, give us a listen and then post your own comments in our Discord. And thanks for joining the fun!
The Glitterbois #0090: A Look at the Dead Reign RPG
Today we talk about one of Palladium’s more unexpectedly popular game titles, Dead Reign. Both of us somehow missed out on this game when it launched, so we had to grab copies to see what all the excitement was about. There is a lot of good stuff here!
The Glitterbois #0089: OCC Spotlight on the Operator
It’s time for another look at the character classes of Rifts, this time with the Operator as the subject of our focus. This rugged post-apoc mechanic is a staple of many great and effective Rifts parties, and we’re gonna tell you why, including a comparison between the Butts and the Ultimate editions’ versions.
The Glitterbois #0088: Rifter #6 Review
Our dive into the long-running Rifter periodical continues with a look at Rifter #6. This one is packed with goodies, including the first of a short series of comics by Palladium great, Ramon Perez! Give us a listen and then share your thoughts on our Discord server!
The Glitterbois #0087: Rifts England Review
Continuing our slow march through the Rifts books, we’re now at World Book 3: England. Give us a listen to find out what this book is all about, and how it might fit into your collection. And join us on Discord to discuss your own stories from it!
The Glitterbois #0086: House Rules: Stat-Based Skills
We’re back with another free-form house rules discussion. This one starts off focused on the idea of converting to “stat-based skills” in Palladium games, but then drifts into a good deep stat-focused discussion across many systems of gaming. What are your favorite stat-based house rules? Write us and let us know!
The Glitterbois #0085: A Look at the Systems Failure RPG
Join us for a look into the innards of Palladium’s oft-forgotten Y2K-themed apocalypse game, Systems Failure. I can’t help but assume that if you are a Palladium fan, then you probably know of and even remember Y2K, but for those new to the concept, just know that the tech world collectively lost its shit in the late 1990s thanks to some short-sighted date formatting in the computers of Early Man. This game takes that to the next level!
The Glitterbois #0084: Spotlight on Captain Gloval, and a New Book Club
In our newest Character Spotlight, we’re turning the shine to Captain Henry J. Gloval, commander of the great SDF-1 from the epic animated series Robotech. We also talk about starting our brand new (monthly?) book club! We’re kicking things off with Robotech: Genesis by Jack McKinney, which we’ve mentioned many times before on this podcast. Link is in the notes, so grab a copy and read along with us if you want to join in!
