Steam Powered Scoundrels: A Malifaux Podcast

Doug has earned his freedom after successfully challenging Roman to what he calls 'Baby Oil Thunderdome', just in time to celebrate the introduction of our new meta overlords, the Explorers Society! We thought we'd do another 'public service' to the community. Now, the other podcasts probably have the 'how to play Explorers' covered, so we thought we'd jump the gun and go right into 'ow to BEAT the Explorers. We got some very smart individuals on with deep insight into the various new masters and their playstyle. Join Roman, Rob, Chase, John, and hanger-on Doug as we teach you how to fight the Teal Terrors. Please donate to our Patreon!  JOIN OUR DISCORD

Hey there friends. Steam Powered Scoundrels is celebrating their 50th episode AND 4 years of podcasting So we decided to do a double-long episode of Friday Night Faux-Down! Join Doug, Victoria, Roman, Nate, and Eli for some Malifaux-themed fun. Also, don't wait till after the credits. There's nothing there.   Donate to our Patreon!  JOIN OUR DISCORD

Full disclosure: The audio that was meant to come out this time around ended up getting corrupted, so Doug did a quick one to make sure we got something out. In this episode, Doug flies solo and covers three different things that don't quite deserve their own episode. First up, he covers the Explorers Society reveals and tries to connect the dots as to what we could possibly see for these new keywords. After that, he does an update on what Steam Powered Scoundrels are working on, and why you should be excited. Lastly, he goes into moderate detail on what exactly the Scoundrels do to record and publish a podcast. It's a pretty simple setup, so if you were ever thinking about running your own Malifaux show, you should definitely give it a try! Donate to our Patreon!  JOIN OUR DISCORD
