Tabletop Radio Hour

Welcome to our first installment of "Players Wanted," the non-7th Sea side of our Actual Play. We're starting off with a good one, Mark's creation, Steam Spy! We all were so excited to play this, and I think you'll be able to tell when you listen to this. Our characters are on a hunt for a rare herb that they plan to steal from a conflicting Organization, and from a moving train no less. I hope you enjoy!

This week, Mark and I talk about the rules and character creation of Steam Spy, Mark's game. Mark has adapted the basic game rules into a more traditional RPG system. We talk a little bit about how this will work in game. We create my character, and explain different elements of the game. After that, we get into a few smaller topics like D&D Beyond. I hope you enjoy!
