Series 2 Episode 1 - the start of something beautiful? Well we discuss Science Fiction which is a start!

Frankenstein's RPG

In this episode - the first of Series 2 - the panel, composed of the following people and recorded at a get together somewhere in Wales: Neil, Sam, Jim, Jeremy, Steve, Carl, Martin and me (Dave) try to tackle the big questions: what Role Playing Game system best handles the setting of Space and Science Fiction and also which role playing games system has the kind of character creation mechanics we most want to emulate in the Frankenstein's Sci-Fi RPG?

Well it was a mixed episode and proof positive that the twin temptations of drink and a convivial atmosphere can lead to some odd outcomes! Hope you enjoyed the episode and that it is the start of something beautiful or at least "full of stars".
