http://actualplay.roleplayingpublicradio.com/2015/04/genre/horror/eclipse-phase-duality-episode-14/We recently concluded the Jovian Republic chapter of the Duality campaign. I wrote up some quick rules to handle the coup, which I have attached as a PDF. The URL goes to the AP episode in question. I thought you guys might enjoy seeing what I had in mind.

This is a 2 part game - I was going to merge it but it was over 6 hours and 15 minutes long - which is a bit too long for even me! I'll post the next game on the 12th, which screws up the AP rotation but I don't want one shots to drag over this long.

Thad stopped by Springfield for a visit so he guest stars in this episode of After Hours! We review Rifter #13, Palladium's own magazine about their games. We also talk about headcanon, which is the idea of making your story behind a fictional story - like the cop wizards of Payday 2.
2015-04-04 20:56:17 +0000 UTC View PostI wrote this in December 2009 for reasons I don't really remember. I know I was listening to the album of the same name, so that's probably why I named it so. Anyway, maybe I could run this when Feng Shui 2 comes out?

You guys are special so you get the actual AP way earlier this time. Mainly because April 1 is coming up and that's going up next on the feed.

More side quest antics! I had to edit out background noise so it took a little longer to get this ready. It might still have some bg noise. Reposting because Patreon ate the MP3 the first time.
2015-03-25 00:32:07 +0000 UTC View PostSo in Duality, I had an idea for players to randomly roll their gear when they awoke on the exoplanet Minerva 4 without any memory of how they got there. Instead of making it a pure crapshoot, I allowed them to spend character points to get access to a better table of random gear. This is what I came up with. You can hear the results in Duality.
