News: I have started using Instagram! Check out my photos and videos of PAX South! Also, Adam Scott Glancy has a campaign of Hollow Earth Expedition on RPPR Tabletop Tales. If you’re looking for exciting pulp action, check it out! Synopsis: We have been playing Scum and Villainy, a Forged in the Dark system RPG, for several months. Our campaign is going up on extended early access on the RPPR Patreon, but Aaron, Shaun, Tom, and I wanted to talk about the game now. We discuss a bit about our campaign, the game’s rules, and our experiences with it. Check out The Oddballs on the RPPR Patreon to listen to our actual play campaign! In our second segment, Kyle Carty from BPB Games reviews Rising Tides, an expansion for Torchbearer. It’s an interesting take on the steampunk naval exploration genre. Finally, we have shout outs and anecdotes based on our experience at PAX South this year. Shout Outs * Nefarious: A web comic about a super villain who likes kidnapping princesses. * Totally Reliable Delivery Service: a neat fumblecore video game we played at PAX South. * Kingdom: A new series on Netflix about a zombie apocalypse in medieval Korea. * Soda Drinker Pro: What the fuck? * Pushing Up Roses: A cool LPer of older computer games. * Nelo: an action game seen at PAX South. * Fyre Fraud: A Hulu documentary on Fyre Festival.
