The conclusion and review of Modiphius’ John Carter of Mars RPG.

In this episode the Nerds tackle the Modiphius game John Carter of Mars.  Fair warning: We are not extremely well versed in the John Carter world so we struggle with names and places but we eventually figure out most of them. Come back for Part 2 to get our review and scores for the game.

We review the last episodes of Game of Thrones and give our thoughts on how the series wrapped up.

Spoiler alert: We spoil everything through the end of the series.

Spoiler Alert! In this episode we watch and discuss the first three episodes of Season 8.

The gang arrives at the village of Winterwolf in the frozen north. Just a brief trek on dog sleds across the wintery wilderness to pick up a possibly insane wizard and we get the reward. Sounds simple enough.

The heroes meet up in a tavern because, of course they do. They are approached by a friend who has a very lucrative offer of employment. So naturally an offer of a huge sum of gold for a seemingly easy task will go well. They always do.

In this episode we work up the backgrounds for the characters for the new campaign. Apologies for the sound quality, we have already upgraded some equipment to correct the issue.

The Nerds are sick of waiting for Game of Thrones Season 8 so we are doing our own! And what better way to do it than with Fiasco!

If you are new to Fiasco, FIASCO is an award-winning, GM-less game for 3-5 players, designed to be played in a few hours with six-sided dice and no preparation. During a game you will engineer and play out stupid, disastrous situations, usually at the intersection of greed, fear, and lust. It’s like making your own Coen brothers movie, in about the same amount of time it’d take to watch one.

No way those dudes at HBO come up with an ending as wild as this one!

Who survives? Who gets the throne? Who knows! It’s Fiasco!

Season 8 of Game of Thrones is approaching and the nerds think they know what is going to happen! Spoiler alert, they don’t.  In this episode we discuss our favorite and least favorite moments from the series to date. Then we make our predictions based on odds set by Vegas.

In this episode we trash the world we created and played in for over a year.  We send the world through periods of destruction and mayhem and launch the world into an apocalypse. Listen in as we destroy the planet! (Not yours, ours.)

And continue to listen to the campaign resulting from this chaos.
