Joe is joined by James to celebrate Dekahedron's two year anniversary. In this episode, they dive into the depths of Star Trek: Adventure Gaming in the Final Frontier, the very first licensed Star Trek RPG. This classic game, released in 1978, offered a unique blend of science fiction and role-playing.
In this episode, we explore the game's mechanics, its place in RPG history, and how much it still holds up today. We'll discuss what we believe to be the game's pros and cons, from the easy-to-learn rules to the lack of starship combat.
Whether you're a long-time Star Trek fan or just curious about the early days of RPGs, this episode is a must-watch!
For Day 30 of the #RPGaDay Challenge, "Person you'd like to game with," Joe reflects on the rewarding experience of introducing new players to the hobby. He discusses his enthusiasm for mentoring others and the joy of watching them discover the magic of role-playing games.
Joe's "awesome app" for today's #RPGaDay2024 challenge is his own custom-built dice roller that's only 400 pixels wide. It's designed for discreet and efficient dice rolling while maintaining focus on the game itself.
Joe shares his "Great Gamer Gadget" for today's #RPGaDay2024 challenge: a foldable dice tray. He highlights its convenience for keeping dice contained and protecting surfaces, making it a valuable tool for any tabletop gamer.
Joe shares his unique perspective on "Marvelous Miniatures" for today's #RPGaDay2024 challenge. While he doesn't rely heavily on miniatures, he recommends Prince August molds as a great DIY option. He briefly mentions Cardboard Heroes as a more affordable alternative but ultimately chooses Prince August for its "cool" factor.
Joe shares his thoughts on today's #RPGaDay2024 prompt: "Superb screen." He argues that screens can create a barrier between players and the gamemaster, and prefers a more open and collaborative approach where everyone can see the dice rolls and engage in the game together.
