A podcast presentation of our groups actual-play role playing sessions. We play in a variety of genres and systems, both long campaigns and one-shot adventures. Our cast of players come from all over the globe and we introduce new voices from our audience as they wish to play.
The Of Steam, Steel and Murder podcast is a captivating and entertaining show that combines elements of mystery and RPG gameplay. While initially expecting a mystery novel-esque experience, I was pleasantly surprised by the RPG format and found it to be just as enjoyable. The unexpected events and twists in the story make for a truly entertaining listen.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the dynamic between the cast of characters. The group's chemistry is evident and their interactions add depth and humor to the story. The near TPK with the Spider Queen was particularly hilarious, showcasing both their ability to handle challenging situations and their comedic timing. Additionally, the plot is well-plotted with plenty of unexpected turns, keeping listeners engaged and entertained.
However, there are some aspects that could be considered drawbacks. As someone new to RPG podcasts, it took me a while to familiarize myself with the game mechanics used in this podcast. While they are explained well, it may still require some adjustment for those unfamiliar with them. Additionally, there may be episodes or arcs that are difficult to follow if one jumps around without starting from the first episode.
In conclusion, The Of Steam, Steel and Murder podcast is a fantastic show with excellent character dynamics and an engaging storyline filled with twists and turns. Whether you're a fan of RPGs or simply enjoy mysteries, this podcast is definitely worth a listen. The talented cast members bring their characters to life in a steampunk setting, providing hours of entertainment for fans of actual play podcasts.

Our game group tonight is tasked with retrieving cursed artifacts that a low-life in their family tree gave out to spread chaos and the Devil's greater plan across the world. With each item they bring back to their special vault, they reclaim a small bit of redemption for themselves.I'm using a hack of the Polymorph system as popularized by the Mazes RPG.

The characters have just won a local contest by filming a pilot episode of a show for public access television. They're still workshopping a name, but the television studio has leant them a van and recording equipment to film a season's worth of footage. Over the next three months, during winter, they are staying in the most legend-filled town within a 5 hour drive. The players are my usual cast from Of Steam, Steel and Murder: Bill, Richard, Jamas, and Dion.
