Episode 47.5: GOZR CharGen Extravaganza!

Steve Jackson

Sometimes we cover games that are truly artifacts of their time. This is one of those! Killer by Steve Jackson Games might be considered by some a proto-LARP, others would see it as “Cops &amp; Robbers” for adults, and most others as a serious ecurity risk? Falling pillow-safes, Dart guns (with a ‘D’!), and 30 second bombs abound in this latest episode of the World’s Greatest Podcast! No, really! No bystanders were harmed in the making of this podcast, since the Halflings didn’t want to go to jail. Again.

Episode 47: Killer by Steve Jackson Games

This episode the Save For Halflings are honored to interview Knights of the Dinner Table author Jolly Blackburn! Jolly doesn’t do many interviews, so this is a rare opportunity to get the inside dope from the gifted storyteller who recently celebrated 300 consecutive issues of his seminal comic book. Plus things pretty quickly break down into gamer talk, but hey… that’s what we do on this show. Jolly is a great guy, who actually left an in-person game with the Kenzer crew at mid-TPK, just to be with us. So we were extra grateful for the chance to speak with him!   NOTE: The party ultimately avoided the looming TPK, though some player characters required healing in the process.

Episode 43: The Fantasy Trip by Steve Jackson Games

Save for Half is a podcast about Old School Games and the modern role playing games inspired by them. Join DM Mike, DM Liz, DM Corbett, and DM Jim as they discuss and review all the RPGs that made the 70s and 80s great, as well as their modern descendants and supplements.

I love the review format and discussion on various games. Especially OSR related products. How about Lamentations of the Flame Princess? Godbound or Stars without Number? Or Old School Essentials (when it ships in October)?

Would be 5 stars if the discussion wasn’t constantly derailed by random bad jokes. But this is likely just personal preference.

Keep em coming!

Mike and Liz are back with DM Corbett in this Old School must-listen gem!

An Old School Gem!

It’s the grandaddy of Basic D&amp;D, the blue book edited by Dr. J. Eric Holmes! This little gem from the late 1970s brings us the question of trying to sell RPGs in mass market stores. It also begs other questions, such as how many ogres you need to mug to level up, why unicorns blow, and what vampires are doing in a game that limits players’ characters to levels 1-3? All this and more will be answered on this episode of Save for Half! No ogres were harmed in the making of this episode, not even the ones with 500 gold pieces in their bags.

Once again the Save for Halflings dig through the emails in the Halfling Hideaway and answer questions from the listeners…some of them even true! After a break we travel through time and space to sit down with the Blueholme man himself, Michael “Vile Traveller” Thomas. We discuss his RPG, gaming in general, and accents. Lots of accents. No Time Lords were harmed in the making of this podcast, not even the British ones. <h2>Links mentioned in this show:</h2> Blueholme Journeymanne rules <a href="http://www.rpgnow.com/product/208800/BLUEHOLMETM-Journeymanne-Rules" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.rpgnow.com/product/208800/BLUEHOLMETM-Journeymanne-Rules</a> Outdoor Survival boardgame <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/1511/outdoor-survival" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/1511/outdoor-survival</a> Stan Johansen Miniatures (RW009+) <a href="http://www.stanjohansenminiatures.com/Road.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.stanjohansenminiatures.com/Road.htm</a> Catweazle Series 1 Episode 1 – The Sun in a Bottle (Part 1) <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cgIHS7am9g" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cgIHS7am9g</a> Don’t forget to drop us an email at saveforhalfpodcast(at)<a href="http://gmail.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">gmail.com</a> to give your opinions of the show! <h2>Be sure to check out our forums at:</h2> Save for Half at Original D&amp;D Forums <a href="http://odd74.proboards.com/board/77/save-half-podcast" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://odd74.proboards.com/board/77/save-half-podcast</a> Save for Half at OSRGaming <a href="http://www.osrgaming.org/forums/index.php?board=37.0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.osrgaming.org/forums/index.php?board=37.0</a>
