Show NotesThis week, Fiona is joined by Duste and Catrina and extra special guest GM Jess Levine for 'Going Rogue 2e', a GM-Less Anti-Fascist RPG about war, rebellion, and making the ultimate sacrifice.Some dedicate their life to the cause… One day, you will dedicate everything. Those who dream of a better world know one simple, terrible fact: not everyone who helps build it will be blessed with the opportunity to live in it. Those who put their lives on the line to transmute dreams of rebellion into reality know the grim truth that to see this transformation occur, they may one day have to give their lives as a catalyst. 'Going Rogue 2e' is a GM-less tabletop roleplaying game for 2-5 players that tells the story of that sacrifice. Written by Jess Levine, 'Going Rogue 2e' is an expansion for Riley Rethal's 'Galactic 2e'. 'Going Rogue 2e' uses 'Galactic 2e's mechanical foundation to weave narratives about troubled martyrs mired in messy, ethically gray conflicts who must face the possibility of making the ultimate sacrifice.You can find out more information about 'Going Rogue 2e' and grab your own copy on Jess' itch.io page.

Spoilers for 'Edgar' introductory scenario by Oliver Vulliamy and 2dSF in Itras By: MenagerieShow NotesThis week, Fiona is joined by Doro, Frank, Jon, Kat, and special GM Rob for Itras By: A surreal roleplaying game set in a city full of strange occurrences, unusual places, and bizarre characters. Published by Vagrant Workshop, Itras By is a setting that lies somewhere between European city life in the 1920s and the dream worlds of depth psychology.At first glance, the city looks like a backdrop in a faded photograph. A snapshot from the beginnings of modernity. Trams, hats, the first automobiles, black & white silent films. But beneath that facade, we can hear the unpredictable murmur of our collective subconscious. The monsters in the basement of our psyche.In the city center, reality is relatively stable, but the further afield you get, the more it deteriorates, mutates, and becomes dream-like.You can find out more information about Itras By and buy your own copy on the Itras By website.TimestampsIntro: 00:00:09Gameplay intro: 00:01:34Intro to Itras By: 00:04:26Introduction to the characters: 00:09:58Oneshot starts: 00:16:58Credits: 01:26:26CreditsThe 'What Am I Rolling?' podcast was created, recorded, and edited by Fiona Howat.The WAIR logo was created by Fiona Howat.This episode's players are Fiona, Doro, Frank, Jon, and KatThis episode's guest GM was Rob.This episode's RPG was for Itras By: A surreal roleplaying game published by Vagrant Workshop.
