Special guest Noah from Maple Syrup Blood Money and Role Playing Exchange and I try to explain Warhammer Fantasy to Jeb. Why? Because it’s the only way we can make sense of it ourselves.

Don’t Cross the Stream: Reboot
by •
Netflix released Reboot: The Guardian Code, a new series based on the cult classic 90s CGI cartoon. Renee, Noah, Aaron, and I talk about the new series and how to gameify it. Who needs acting when you can just randomly pick your emotions?
After Hours: Crossover Chaos
by •
Everyone is excited about the great crossover event happening in a major fictional universe. Of course, I’m talking about the Supernatural/Scooby Doo crossover. I heard something about some crossover movie but who cares about that?
Anyway, Shaun, Tom, and I got together to make our crossover RPG characters. We used random character creation tables from different games to generate our team – from Maid to Beyond the Supernatural.
Don’t Cross the Stream: Infini
by •
Sci-fi films can be about big ideas, but sometimes that isn’t enough. Infini tries to be about some big ideas but the execution leaves much to be desired. Bridget, Caleb, Fae, Thad, and I discuss the movie and our ideas for mining gaming fodder out of it. Things like random tables for doing stupid things in space, to mini games about pretending to be human even when you’re secretly a goo alien!
After Hours: National Dungeographics
by •
A lot of RPGs talk about the ecology of dungeons, but what does that really mean? In this episode, we got special guest Jeff Barber of Biohazard Games to discuss this topic, plus some more reviews!
Temple of Blood: a 3E D&D module
Gramercy Island: Tom discusses some of the odder characters within it.
Song: On the Run by Quine
Don’t Cross the Stream: Gantz: O
by •
Gantz is a hyper violent sci-fi battle royale series popular in Japan. It started as a manga, became an anime, then two live action movies, and now a CGI movie. Gantz: O adapts a story arc deep in the story, appearing over halfway through the main plot. Bridget, Fae, Thad, Richard, and I discuss what we thought of the movie and how it could be turned into a game.
After Hours: Overland Travel Fails
by •
I experienced several new means of transportation in my recent vacation, including tuk-tuks and catamarans. It made me wonder what vehicles in RPGs would work best in the real world? Aaron, Shaun, Tom, and I discuss some options. We also review:
- Time and Time Again: (again)
- Renegade Dreams: A module for Spacetime, a weird cyberpunk RPG.
- Sweet Wall of Death: A third party module for AD&D that involves giant bees.
Don’t Cross the Stream: Episode 1 – Force of Execution
by •
In our first episode, Tom, Aaron, Shaun, and special guest Thad examine one of Steven Seagal’s more recent efforts: Force of Execution. It’s about, uh, crime? It’s on Netflix, if you dare want to watch it.
If you are missing Wod The Heck, I recently wrote a blog post about why we are switching shows.
After Hours: Swole Trek
by •
A comic series about evil Next Generation Star Trek has come to my attention so we spend most of this episode dissecting it and how this can be applied to RPGs. Sleeveless swole Picard steals the Enterprise so he can go murder Klingons. In other words, he’s a murderhobo.
Shaun also reviews an adventure from Dungeon Nov/Dec 2000 about a unicorn missing its horn.
Palladium Poisoning – Rifts: Africa
by •
You asked for it, you wanted it, now behold the weirdness that is Rifts: Africa! The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are here to wreck shit and they have the rowboating skills to prove it. Shaun, Faust, and I dissect the strangeness of this book in far too excruciating detail. Enjoy and thanks for supporting the RPPR Patreon!
