The Hook Undercover: The PCs are cops tasked with infiltrating a dangerous criminal organization. How can they work their way up the ladder while maintaining their integrity? Ordinary complications, like family problems, can play a big part in a campaign like this, since the PCs will have the added complication of a secret identity--trying to keep their assignment and their home life separate. 5. Podcast News A. The Material World looks at Tunguska On the 30th June 1908, a huge fireball hurtled towards the Tunguska River region of Siberia. The explosion that followed was as powerful as 1000 Hiroshima bombs and knocked down an estimated 80 million trees. But 100 years later scientists are yet to find an impact crater or tell-tale meteorite remains. So what happened? The Material World is a BBC Radio podcast. In this episode, Host Quentin Cooper is joined by Dr Phil Bland and Gareth Collins from Imperial College London to find out. You can learn more at the website. B. Brilliant Gameologists In their own words, Brilliant Gameologists is a podcast about tabletop games and the people who play them. Helping you play like you have to, play like you have to and play like you have two. For my two cents, the BGs are fun and enjoy using language that is less than family friendly, like some other podcast I know . . . and possibly participate in. They understand LARPing is all about hitting on hot gamer chicks and has no other value. Me like. You can find them at: brilliantgameologists.com/ 6.

WARNING: Instances of very strong language may offend some listeners. Accidental Survivors: the Modern Gaming Podcast sponsored by Sword's Edge Publishing All music in podcast by Mindscape Music 1. News & Views Erik Wujicik died on June 7. The first RPG Rob ever purchased was TMNT and Other Strangeness! The Air Force wants botnets of MASS DESTRUCTION! 4e, 'nuff said Accidental Survivors RPG development forum Chris Davies 4e review Is it @$$ kickin' time?

Get those buttery-smooth Ts from Geeklabel.Remember: these are not magic t-shirts. 3. Inspiration Time The Manchurian Candidate The X-Files Metal Gear Solid Planetary 4. The Hook OpCom VULTURE The PCs are drawn into a trip or mission to the town of Iana Sarat in Mondovia, a fictional state in Eastern Europe. If they are military or spies, they are assigned to a mission, if they are private individuals, they are either hired to escort a subject they will meet there, or the NPC is a friend or other acquaintance that calls on their aid. Stories of lights in the skies and unexplained explosions the previous night meet the PCs. They meet Piotr Korensky, who is their contact. He indicates a belief that they are a ârecovery teamâ with âVulture.â He passes on a map and coordinates some 40 kilometres south west of Iana Sarat. Before he can explain any further, he is assassinated by a rifle shot. The shooter, if captured, carries a letter stating âProvide assistance to RAVEN acting under orders. Recovery operation underway. OpCom VULTURE may intervene. RAVEN is to terminate this threat.â It is only signed âMajesticâ The map leads to a valley in the mountains where a strange aircraft has crashed. The occupants are not human. Here, the PCs meet Devoe, and he explains that they have been sent here through the machinations of Operational Command VULTURE, a secret military command created by elements of NATO and the Warsaw Pact in the 1960s to oppose the Majestic 12 conspiracy. Vulture adapts and then spreads alien technology, preparing to battle the aliens who have infiltrated Earth societies through the help of Majestic. The PCs are now caught in the middle of the battle between the conspirators of Majestic 12 and OpCom VULTURE, possibly the saviours of humanity. Devoe can act as their contact and feed them information. But since this is the shadowy world of black ops and conspiracies, is VULTURE or Devoe really who they say they are? Is Majestic 12 really the threat Devoe states it is? Thatâs up to you. 5. Podcast News A. Penny Arcade + PvP + 4e = Good Times! The folks at Penny Arcade and PvP sat down with WotC's Chris Perkins to play 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons (for some of them, it was their very first game of D&D). How did it go? Well, they recorded the entire sessionâwhich WotC is offering in episodic podcasts, along with comics commemorating the game! You can find the podcasts at the Wizard's site.
