#092 Entropy Rising Season 2 – Episode 1

Thanks for listening to the LTM Gaming Podcast!
And we’re back! Nothing like a 5+ year hiatus! We have continued to game, but the editing became overwhelming. We have finally come around to TJ’s campaign, Entropy Rising, again, and we have a much more streamlined audio process now. Expect about one episode a month. This first episode is a little choppy because of where some of us are recording, but you should at least listen to the first 15 minutes or so to hit TJ’s epic recap of the entire first season, created partially with Incredibox.
We hope you enjoy!

Thanks for listening to the LTM Gaming Podcast! This week on The Crushing Depths, our real-play d20 Modern game, it’s a flashback to our very first session using roll20! LTM Gaming absolutely endorses Roll20 as a great platform for online gaming, and they don’t pay us anything. Our group is scattered geographically, and roll20 allows us to play with a virtual tabletop in a way we never had before. The previous episode left us hanging as Sal prepared to meet with the ulitharid, Choronzon, and Vanessa and Russ looked on. Now we see the first season of The Crushing Depths campaign begin to spiral downward to its inevitable end.

This week kicks off a new season of LTM Gaming! Join us as we reach back in to our memories to try and set the stage for the d20 Modern campaign run by Paul, The Crushing Depths. This campaign actually started before Entropy Rising, but we didn’t start recording until session 7 for us. These first two episodes will be our attempt to reintroduce the campaign and characters, as well as detail the events of the missing recordings.

This episode in particular you hear the introduction Paul gave the players before starting, detailing the history of this alternate future world. Then you meet the characters:

Matt plays a Fast hero named Russet Barrow.
Steve plays a Smart hero named Vanessa Fairaday.
TJ plays a Strong hero named Salvestro Giangaleazzo.
In addition to running the game, Paul plays a Fast hero named Leonid Rybkin. Sort of. You’ll see.

#041 LTM Plays Episode 2 – Gloom Part 2

1250

This week on the LTM Gaming Podcast, we finish our game of Gloom! The concluding episode turned out a little shy of our normal length, but we hope you enjoy.

Gloom is a tabletop card game in which you control a set of characters. You play modifier cards on those characters with the aim of getting them to the lowest possible negative value and then killing them off, ending play. Any player may play modifier cards on any character, not just their own.

While Gloom could be played as a simple card placement game, our group prefers to play it as a collective storytelling game. We base our descriptions on the cards played, but the story grows from there. The descriptions and story are the best part of Gloom! We always have a good time playing it.
