Analytic Dice

In this 40th episode of Analytic Dice we take somewhat political call and then talk about one of our favorite games, Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter of Mars by Modiphius. Analytic Dice is a monthly podcast in which we, Kevin and Gabe, analyze a tabletop roleplaying game system or setting. Before recording each episode we will have played the specific role-playing game or setting under discussion. While there is no perfect system or setting, people do have preferences, and this podcast will explore our actual play experiences with different mechanics, revealing the great, the good, and our opinion on the pain points inherent in each system or setting adaptation.
