Roll to Save
Three middle-aged nerds dive deep into the golden age of tabletop RPGs, covering the classics from the 80s and 90s that shaped the hobby we love today. Iain and Jason banter their way through gaming history while Steve desperately tries to keep them on topic—and occasionally succeeds.
Whether you're a grognard who lived through THAC0 or a newcomer curious about what to do with all those lovely polyhederal dice you've aquired, we've got you covered with historical deep-dives, roundtable discussions fueled by questionable nostalgia, and actual play episodes where our players' competence is... variable.
All of this released on a schedule that can charitably be called "flexible" at best.
Grab some dice and join us for a trip down memory lane—just don't ask us to commit to when the next episode will drop.

Palladium Games - Roundtable
This episode we take a look at Palladium games - the company founded in 1981 most famous for its MEGAVERSAL system. Forty years later and the system is fairly unchanged which is charming and wildly frustrating in equal measure... We talk about our experiences with their games, their system and some of the idiosyncrasies that comes with it.
We WERE going to do a history episode, but we hadn't spoken in ages so we decided to ramble amongst ourselves instead.
