-
[Shadowrun] Actual Play - Episode 96 "This is fine"
The Spiders are advancing toward the Treehouse. How many will make it through the hellscape that is Improv's minefield and snipers? How many of those will fall to Juliet's grenadiers, Kennel's massive Troll machine gunners, or Horatio's Red Wires? But maybe instead we should be wondering why it…

-
[Shadowrun] Actual Play - Episode 93 "It's gonna hurt but yes"
Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. Remember that awesome plan to jury-rig a trideo set to project an image inside a Gopher so that it looks like the gang is trying to escape but it's really just a clever ploy so that the Spiders aren't prepared for an actual attack?...
-
[Shadowrun] Actual Play - Episode 92 "Traitors Never Prosper"
Hello and welcome back to the Fourth Estate Militia Actual Play. Sometimes asking for help is a good thing. It's hard to swallow your pride in the Barrens because being hard is what keeps you alive. Sometimes, though, it's good to let others do the heavy lifting, or digging in this case, for you.…
