We are back with a new direction on the podcast! Focusing more on shorter stories, a more varied cast, and trying out a lot of the games that make us happy! Lots more to come!
First up, we play the excellent game by Kelsey Dionne and the Arcane Library: Shadowdark. The players include two new recruits! The PCs get marooned on a mysterious island with a strange gemstone and an uncommunicative and somewhat hostile young woman.

The heroes' luck finally runs out... Vel is blinded by the light. Kor performs the drag out maneuver. A monster is contained, but not without cost...
Our sincere thanks to any and everyone who has followed our journey to this point! As crazy as it seems to end the campaign here, this IS a game and not a scripted endeavor. We've had an absolute blast creating and playing in the lands of the Vangian kings, and being able to share it with you all!
While this is the end of this campaign, we will be back, and soon! we are currently recording a "one shot" of Shadowdark with the whole gang and a couple of new players, so be sure to check that out soon!

About Retro Role Cast
From the publisher's feed
"Serious roleplaying games played by deeply unserious people."
We are a tabletop roleplaying actual play podcast featuring games that remind us of our gaming roots! We play…
in person with real math rocks! We love gritty, high action dark settings with nuance, but aren't too far away from our bitter, cynical, yet still lovable selves at all times!
Currently: Going way back to many of our players' 1e roots by playing the new third edition of OSRIC (pdf available free on DrivethruRPG, fantastic hard copies available through Mythmere Games) with a home cooked mini (?) campaign in the World known as Greyhawk in the classic era. follow along as the PCs navigate the dangerous environments and tricky politics of the Duchy of Tenh/Theocracy of the Pale border region!
In season one we played Low Fantasy Gaming by Pickpocket Press, Its sequel game Tales of Argosa is released, available, and comes highly recommended by all of us, stop by Pickpocket Games on the web for more info!
Season two saw a transition to a modified Version of Old School Essentials (Advanced) by Gavin Norman, one of many retro offshoots of the world's most popular role playing game. We borrow rules and content from many sources, but with Old School Essentials we used (in no particular order), Old School Feats by Eric Diaz, Into The Wyrd and Wild by Charles Furgeson-Avery, Into the Wild by Todd Leback, The Axian Library by Guiseppe Rotondo, and the Monster Overhaul by Skerples, amongst other sources.
With the close of Season 2 and the addition of two new Retro Role Casters we have moved to a more episodic format for Season 3. We are referring to seasons 1 and 2 as our Zero Level Funnel of Podcasting.
Season three and into the first part of Season four the four OG hosts took turns GM-ing one shots, Three Shadowdark adventures because we love Kelsey's fantastic Old meets New game, Mothership to satisfy our love of the Alien Movies and a Halloween special using the Call of Cthulhu rules.
