Role Playing Public Radio Podcast / Channel Zero: Candle Cove

« on: October 12, 2016, 11:46:17 PM »

Candle Cove was the first AP i ever listened to, after Kris Straub tweeted about it. 6 years later and I'm pretty die hard for RPPR. I relisten to Candle Cove every October. I also tell a mashup version of Kris Straubs story and Ross's every time I'm even close to a campfire.

So any way, the new SyFy horror anthology show Channel Zero is tackling a creepypasta each season and they are starting with Candle Cove. Six episodes, and they basically blew through the original story in the first.  Wonder if Ross or anyone else has checked it out and what they think about it.

This and Lover in the Ice are two great ways to initiate new players and PC's into Delta Green. So fantastically well written.

With the advent and success of the Delta Green Kickstarter, can we expect some more Delta Green  from "R" cell? I would love to hear "The Fall of Delta Green". Also since I haven't posted in a while, gotta put in a vote for the EP scenario "Million Year Echo" because it is awesome.

General Chaos / Re: Favorite NON RPG Tabletop Games

« on: April 11, 2014, 02:23:07 PM »

X-Wing Miniatures Game - This game is what I've been devoting a lot of my free time thinking about lately, it's an extremely elegant game that requires through the roof strategy. I've had a blast at every tournament I've played in.

Love Letter - As mentioned below, this game is great.

Lords of Waterdeep and its subsequent expansions -- This is the first game (besides that infernal nonsense Catan) that I've been able to get my non-gaming friends to really enjoy.

King of Tokyo - Just easy, fantastic fun.

Twilight Struggle - Perfect if you have 5 hours and a friend to play who is very close in the amount of political/historical nerd-dom they contain as you.

Battlestar Galactica and all its expansions: Great if you have a few hours to set up, another hour to explain the rules, and then three hours to play. It does betrayal very well, and if you are a fan of the show, oh man.

I've never gotten to play any of the Lovecraftian board/card games. But i would love too.

Oh yeah one more thing, the episodes have the right date on them in the Podcasts store, but once they are downloaded they have a date of December 31st, 2000 on them.

Role Playing Public Radio Podcast / The RPPR AP podcast site is now up

« on: November 21, 2013, 10:01:37 PM »

Is anyone else having issues with the iTunes Podcasts app and RPPR Actual Plays. The app isn't updating automatically anymore for RPPR Actual Plays. When I go and manually add the newest podcast from the store and it has the right date on it, but it goes to the bottom of the list. It's weird though, it just started doing this with one of the Nights Black Agents episodes and does it intermittently since. It just did again with the Bayou Beatdown Base Raiders episode. Anyone else having this problem
Or know of a fix. No other podcasts are doing it, and the main RPPR podcast isn't doing it.

Is the crew going to dive into Numenera anytime soon?

I like the faster posting schedule, for sure.  l might like it a bit better if it were Campaign 1, One Shot, Campaign 2, One Shot. Or Campaign 1, One Shot, One Shot, Campaign 2.

That being said, I really like the alternating campaign schedule, I just like to see what you do with one shots.

Also, did Tom's Pathfinder game ever turn in to anything?

What about the crews run of "Lover Before the Ice"? I know Caleb linked to some of the guys from The Drunk and the Ugly playing it for their backer reward, but I thought he said during our backer game that the RPPR crew had playtested it and "Thad was in full Hunter S. Thompson". Would not want to miss that game.

@ Teuthic

      I'd love to hear the overall plot of your game, plus some of the ideas behind the characters, if you have the time.

Role Playing Public Radio Podcast / Wow... The Backlog

« on: April 12, 2013, 12:45:42 AM »

Disclaimer: In no way, shape, or form am I complaining in this post. I am genuinely awed at the amount of gaming and grateful that the crew takes the time to share those games with us..

So i think last night as I was listening to the latest podcast, I began to wrap my mind around how much of a backlog of games the crew has. I mean we are two games away from being done with Know Evil, who knows how many more episodes of New Arcadia, and from the forums and podcasts I think I know of at least one more Campaign that might be done (Fortunes of War), and at least three other Campaigns that I think are going on now(Better Angels, Pathfinder, and Nights Black Agents), plus all the in between one shots. I am blown away. Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you.

Role Playing Public Radio Podcast / The League of Extraordinary Gentleman - Listener Edition

« on: April 12, 2013, 12:28:30 AM »

I think we can all admit that we love a good, or even a bad, League of Extraordinary Gentleman Game. The best part of those games is the Gentleman ( or Ladies) that are chosen to be played. So here we go, pick three characters that you would love to play in a League game and tell us about them if you like. They can be any heroes, villains, or anti-heroes from any medium. Hell they could even be some of your favorite characters from Know Evil, New Arcadia etc.

Also, if you think of any characters that might be too overpowered, complex, or game breaking to stat out, list those as well.

--- In Soviet Russia .. Blank blanks YOU! ( I know I've heard it before RPPR, but cannot place it)

-- The Siberia joke ( which I can't remember if it began in one of the Divine Fire games or in "The Dangers of Fraternization")

Hey Kemlin... http://slangdesign.com/forums/index.php/topic,1661.0.html ... ahem *cough cough* 

@Capitalocracy I really considered signing up for that, but unfortunately I am a restaurant manager, so I work almost every weekend and my days and nights off fluctuate on a week to week basis. I would really love to play some Eclipse Phase, but it would be unfair for me to join a Skype game that I couldn't commit to. Sorry, sounded like fun.  .

RPGs / RPPR Listeners: Who gets to play on a regular basis?

« on: March 27, 2013, 03:15:51 AM »

I've been wondering this for a while.

How many of you listeners in the Forum actually get to game on a regular basis?

I never ever get to play. My entire gaming career is three games of D&D 4th Ed. in a homebrew setting that I wrote and Dm'ed which was ill fated from the start.

I devour sourcebooks and love to write settings and scenarios, but can never find many people that have the time or the inclination to play. Actual Plays and sourcebooks are as close as i get actually rolling dice.

Anyone else out there in the same boat? Or is my life truly that sad?
