Thankless Roll Players: a TTRPG actual play podcast
Arguably the world's finest TTRPG actual play podcast, with emphasis on the word "arguably". We play a large variety of tabletop roleplaying games - from the big names to small indie publishers. New episodes stumbling out on a weekly (ish) basis. Each episode usually 90 mins or less. Our fine theme music is "Never Leave The House" by Barry McCormack http://www.barrymccormack.com Also on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHzdv7pCK8ORXQLvi_UNUTg
- 109 - S05E15 - Dungeon Crawl Classics - The Precipice of Corruption - Episode Two
Having made their blood sacrifice, our intrepid party of inept rabble venture deep into the horror-filled corridors of the Temple of Herlezzect (yeah, we can't pronounce it either) in the concluding part of our playthrough of Nick Baran's "The Precipice of Corruption" for Dungeon Crawl Classics.

The town of Stennard finds itself in desperate need. The crops have failed and famine is imminent. In a bold effort to save the town, the constable sends their best hunters in search of game, treading into the forbidden lands to the west. But when they fail to return, only an unseemly mob of cutthroats and fortune seekers are willing to take on the task. Come with us to the Mangled Hills as we take on Nick Baran's "The Precipice of Corruption" for Dungeon Crawl Classics.

Something is amiss in the town of Fairhaven. It's the night before the regional roller derby championship, and our beloved local team are acting decidedly out of character. Can cable access hosts Jake Tooley, Link Thickneck, Erasmus Polk, and Captain Puddles get to the bottom of things and save the day before it's too late? Of course they can, for these are no ordinary tv hosts - they are the Weird Heroes of Public Access!

The operatives undertake a somewhat legal contract for the Bloodcutters - transporting a body containing valuable experimental organs across the Wash. But there's a slight snag. It appears somebody else also wants those organs, and will stop at nothing to get them, as we continue our playthrough of "Cities Without Number".

Harold the Forest Druid, the thief Tomi Tynglefingers, aided once more by Timothy the Immolator, and their new friend Growly Pete, are hired on by a high priestess of the Iron King to breach a mysterious stone demon head atop a hill overlooking a village and retrieve an artifact she apparently can't just get herself. What could go wrong?

For our 100th episode, and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Dungeons & Dragons, we tackle Gary Gygax's classic 1975 dungeon crawl "Tomb of Horrors". But why tackle this notoriously unbeatable dungeon as high level D&D characters, when you can send in a bunch of Dungeon Crawl Classics zeroes? Will our heroes survive? Of course not. But we guarantee a rollicking good time while they do!

Befitting the trend of splitting all series finales in two (and not at all due to lack of time to do any editing), and making the audience wait an unduly long time for those parts, we present the first part of the final installment of our playthrough of "Court of Blades". It's probably worth the wait.

Sixteen foolish peasants who foolishly believe they were born for greater things, foolishly take the word of a mysterious woman in blue that if they foolishly step off a cliff onto an invisible bridge and go to a prison in a hole in the sky, and foolishly fight a titan, then all of their wishes will come true.

Given that two of our favorite games of the last year were Greg Stolze's "Dueling Fops of Vindamere" and John Harper's "Blades in the Dark", how could we resist a beast such as Shawn & Navi Drake's "Court of Blades" - a game of scheming nobles, court magicians, and dashing duelists, set in the fantasy Renaissance-era (or as Jenni calls it "Opera") city-state of Ilrien. Rob gives us an overview of the game, and leads us through house and character creation - all in just under an hour - in our session zero of "Court of Blades"

A missing girl, a mysterious medusa, a troublesome new hire, and a horrendous bar tab. Our heroes get more than they bargained for every step of the way, as they stumble through the thrilling conclusion to our playthrough of Gary Gygax's 1979 D&D classic "The Keep on the Borderlands" using Baz Stevens' "The King of Dungeons" ruleset.
Loosely using the scenario from "Into the Borderlands" published by Goodman Games, and using the ruleset from King of Dungeons. Both of which we wholeheartedly recommend.https://goodman-games.com/store/product/original-adventures-reincarnated-1-into-the-borderlands/

What treasures lie in the secret flap beneath a brutal torturer's sweaty loincloth? What about Ars Magica? What about World of Darkness? These, and other pressing questions will be answered in this week's episode, as we draw ever nearer to the conclusion of our playthrough of Gary Gygax's 1979 classic "The Keep on the Borderlands", played here using Baz Stevens' marvelous "King of Dungeons".
We had a bit of a calamity, as our recording dropped out for the last 30 minutes or so, so this episode ends rather abruptly. But we shall regale you all with what happened at the beginning of our next episode (hint: A LOT HAPPENED).

Sat, 13 Mar 2021 - 1h 06min - 35 - S02E05 The King of Dungeons - Keep on the Borderlands Part 5 - The Temple of Evil Chaos
Our characters level up, and our relationship with King of Dungeons enters its difficult second stage, where its little quirks begin to annoy us, but the sex is still very, very good so we overlook them. Our heroes, aided by the bandit captain Dee Dee Raven, enter into the caverns that house the Temple of Evil Chaos in a bid to free Millicent from the clutches of the vile Osseus the Filthy. Along the way, Bohdi makes an unusual new friend.

We're taking the halfling to Eiselcross.
Thrill as our heroes shop for good value in rations. Gasp as they negotiate suitable transportation. And weep tears of quiet comfort as they share a very special seasonal moment.
Our cleric finds a sexy book, our wizard rolls a 2, our rogue wheels and deals, and our fighter once again gets pummeled to within an inch of his life.
