Random Average Actual Play

Kim, Kate, Amanda, and I get together to build an Apocalypse We’re using the new Burned Over playbooks that Vincent’s releasing for “PG13 Apocalypse World.

Kaylee and I decided to do something fun with Freebooters on the Frontier. There will be more of this. Intro music is some of Wintergatan – Marble Machine. Exit music is some of Thunderstruck – 2Cellos.
