Actual Play: Savage Fallout Session 2
And here we are, a couple weeks after our first session of Savage Fallout and we have Session 2: Brak Gets a Dog. No, but seriously, I'm having so much fun taking the framework of the first Fallout game and throwing players through it like a sieve.
First impressions on the second episode: combat is very easy, which I have no issues with currently, seeing as the players are just getting started out in the wasteland. Sure, having the Savage Worlds mechanic of Extra/Wild Card enemies makes it so some of the more nerve-wracking enemies in the traditional Fallout sense get a little nerfed so others can really shine, but I think once my players encounter a Deathclaw, they'll be shitting their pants realizing that 'holy fucking shit that thing can spend goddamn bennies.'
I think I'm actively not trying to kill my players in this game, and that doesn't bother me as much as I think it used to. Really, I'm kind of hoping to see how they do without the constant adversity I throw their way in games. Plus they're sitting on alien technology. And rolling like goddamn pros.
The wasteland doesn't have a fucking chance.
Take a listen and enjoy, folks!

So hey. I'm back here. Not the first time I've visited. None of my podcast apps find a feed and I never have time to sit at the computer to listen.
ReplyDeleteSo um... Maybe I'm being dumb and missing something, but where can one grab these to go?
Usually if I want to download them I just click the link to archive.org and download from there. I'll research getting these up on some kind of feed. Probably a good way to spend my morning. Thanks for listening!
