Episode 525: Neptune Reveal Party

December 2nd, 2022 | Robin

In the Gaming Hut we look at scenario text as a place to put GM advice.

At the behest of beloved Patreon backer Bret Kramer the History Hut hosts the tale of German-born eventual doctor Gottfried Knoche, who in the late 19th century took his penchant for mummification innovation to Venezuela.

In Ken and/or Robin Talk to Someone Else, Ken chats with Heather O’Neill, designer of Meeple Party and Schrödinger’s Cats.

Finally, our hero revs up Ken’s Time Machine to assist the Antemnates against Romulus, the first king of Rome.
