As Charlie is ill and both hosts are really busy, we take a quick detour from talking about Star Trek the TV Show to talk about Star Trek Adventures Tabletop RPG by Modiphius Entertainment. In his other side-career as a Gaming Journalist, Charlie got to try out a review copy with his gaming group and goes over the ensuing data. If you ever wanted your episode of Casual Trek to be 80% Charlie and 20% Miles, this one is for you! Find out Miles’ potted history with gaming, the world’s strangest Alien campaign and a quick overview of the game itself. This might be our most tangent-free episode!Episodes Mentioned: The Star-Trek Adventure Tabletop RPG (25:20)TALKING POINTS: Our history with RPGS, Miles’ obsession with playing a Mod in RPG’s (the subculture kind, not the internet forum kind) The Langoliers, the weirdest Alien RPG campaign, Charlie’s earlier history with Star Trek RPG’s and Charlie’s brother trying and failing to help, the actual Star Trek Adventures game itself, worries about combat, can you concentrate your way out of everything? Made-up Radiation, Charlie’s spread-sheet nerd habits pay off, Charlie gives a two-word answer to playing Traveller and then fudges a very easy dice roll.
