Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. The time has come to face the leaders of the Crimson Crush. Horatio and Kennel take center stage and try to keep Red Hot alive. It's time to begin Episode 80, "Nah, you try and survive"

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. They've made it back to the Treehouse. The heist at the Hollywood chip factory was a success and the spoils of war are being divided. Despite the combat being done Horatio and Kennel have one final fight before a call is made. To Heatwave, and the Crimson Crush. They certainly won't walk into another ambush, right? Right? It's time to begin Episode 79, "Make the Barrens Great Again"

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. We've seen the Red Wires use a Toyota Gopher to rip an Ork in half. We watched as the Matrix was turned into a cruel assassin leaving a poor Rigger alone and dying of a brain hemorrhage. Machine guns turned men into meat and viscera while a literal hound of hell burned their bones into blackened ash but will our heroes be able to overcome this next challenge? Will they be able to… Take apart this machine and load it into a truck?! The tension grows while these Barrens Kings and Queens loot every thing in sight. It's time to begin Episode 78, "Nuke'em!"

The camera pans to the open vastness of space, nothing as far as the eye can see save for the inky blackness of the void. Then a flash of blue phosphorescent light shatters the silent gloom of the void and an oval-shaped planetoid about the size of Earth's moon, plus or minus a hundred kilometers, appears in frame. Crackling rays of drift energy cascade off the surface of the rocky moon into the void of space as it settles in a self sustaining stationary orbit. The camera pans out and one by one a multitude of vessels from all manner of ports of origin pop out of the drift with a resounding CRACK and begin descending upon the planetoid while blue drift lightning streams off of their hulls. The camera focuses even closer, revealing a sprawling city nestled in a deep crater on the planetoid's surface, with a large mountainous pillar jutting outward from the center. It glitters softly with neon lights from the multitude of palatial estates built into the rock of the pillar, each with their own colorful heraldry like an audacious middle finger to good taste. The camera holds upon the pillar, zooming in to focus on wild parties full of bacchanalian delights, the high stakes games of fortune, and tense battle planning committed by savage-looking individuals even though they sport rich finery of a civilized world. The camera pans down below the lofty estates to the lower quarters, winding its way through a rat's nest of dirty, twisting corridors filled with bustling markets offering all manner of foreign finery, all of which are being hawked by loud and braggadocious criers. It stops and focuses on a fight that breaks out between two of these criers, two whose competitive barbs have gotten perhaps too personal. In their struggle the larger crier screams and clutches his chest, grabbing at the dagger plunged within. He drops to the ground and the smaller, six-limbed crier resumes hawking his wares as if his competitor's blood was not staining the streets a few feet from him. The camera pans through shops full of exotic wares and creatures that can't find anywhere else in Near Space, past aliens whose home planets have not yet been catalogued by the Star Finder Society, past brawls and fights, past dirty dealings of all kinds, until we pan out to view the city of scum as a whole once more and words begin to phase into the screen "Welcome to Providence". And to you, my listeners: Welcome to Starfinder.

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. When last we spoke our intrepid heroes had begun the siege of the Hollywood chip factory. We continue the attack and, hopefully, learn more about ourselves in the process. An Ork split nearly in half makes a plea to Horatio, Juliet scoffs at the idea of mercy, Kennel agrees that Drogon is the bestest puppy ever, and Improv gets… spotted? Oh no. It's time to begin Episode 77, "(And then we're going to make the Spiders' noise)"

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. The plan is clarified, things are hacked, other things are shot, maybe someone gets set on fire I DON'T KNOW! Maybe you need to listen and find out how the siege on the Hollywood chip factory begins. I'll give you a hint, though. Improv kills a guy by making his head explode. Shocker, I know. It's time to begin Episode 76, "If you guys don't mind I'm going to ram through the gate"

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. TAR has returned and with him comes Juliet's ever so sweet, ever so loving desire for world peace. The fledgling Runners update their plan of attack and by update I mean they actually decide to come up with a plan more complicated than "Improv make go Boom". It's time to begin Episode 75, "Don't you want to be in the first wave? That's where all the honor is."

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. When you hear a line such as, "Clockwerk loves them!" you know that Improv is about to do some horrible things. Come learn what happened to Copper Cass with the rest of the Red Wires and maybe you, too, will understand why even Improv's friends don't sleep with unlocked doors when she is around. It's time to begin Episode 74, "I mean, not that it's poisoned"

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. We continue with Improv's foray into the spotlight as she tries to figure out why Copper Cass, her only "friend" in air quotes from before her time with the Red Wires, has yet to awaken. Let's DC straight into her brain and see what we find. It's time to begin Episode 73, "I don't think we've even got the right fish yet"

Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. Where is Juliet? Was she murdered in her sleep by the very people in her own gang? Or was it something even more nefarious! Was Juliet's Player… stuck in traffic and late to the game?! We decide that we really don't want to begin the murdering without our favorite paranoid hobo so instead Improv, that quiet gal with a small town upbringing but a big city desire to live, takes a little time in the spotlight and maybe teaches us all what it means to live, laugh, and forcibly implant cyberware in one of our only friends. It's time to begin Episode 72, "After he got shot in the head they stim patched him"
