Hello and welcome to the weekly. Scroll podcast Bocce by the
adventure archive. Tonight I'm joined with Hunter
and E and the creator of Helm and a bunch of other stuff.
John Davis of civil sanctum. How is everybody doing tonight?
Right. Hello everybody.
Cincinnati good. Good tonight.
We are going to be doing our second.
We're calling it Creator Cuts where we bring on a Creator, who
is either could have game or written Adventure or something
like that. Something that they, they
created themselves and their, they run it on the show.
So, this will be Creative Cuts episode number 2, where clearly,
if you can see us, it says, Helm at the top And if you know what
that means, you know, again, John Davis of Civic sanctum, he
is here is a creator of Helm which is pretty recent game
that's come out that you're putting a lot of support out for
still available. Now, for print on an exalted
funeral. Very exciting about that.
Is very cool. Yep, superhero and tonight, we
are playing an adventure written for 17th century.
Minimalist called clusterfuck in.
Is there anything you want to say about that?
Before we get started? John, yeah, 17th century.
Minimalist is a great little system.
Apparently out of print, everywhere is news to me, so if
you can find it, please pick Up a copy, The Adventure Pack that
comes along with it is really great and I think clusterfuck in
is the standout from that Adventure Pack.
So we're going to have a lot of fun tonight.
Hell yeah, I'm excited. Um, so we if you can see our
names on screen again in Pakistan and I'm sorry, we have
John Davis, we have Hunter as XXXX and he's XXXX and Ryan as
you guessed it for X's because we are not created characters or
given them names, do anything yet.
So we're going to quickly do some character creation.
So, you guys know how that works and then we're going to get into
the game. So let's fucking do it.
Oh yeah, I'm go. So if you guys have your
character shapes in front of you, I'm going to need you all
to roll six D6 and assign those numbers to your different body
zones. So that's your head, your trunk,
your left arm right arm, left leg and right leg.
Straight down. It's been a while since I
listened to the end of the interview and the review of
this. Is it straight down Asana more
you like okay? I'm not that stingy.
Did we say there were how, how much of a hard time I gave Ryan
on the show for rolling a character that had like a 22
intellect or something? Oh no, oh no.
Immediately. First role was a to a mic
Perfect. Okay, I finally got the sheet
up. Now, what am I rolling again?
You're rolling 66, and you're going to be assigning.
Those numbers to your different body zones. you have to do a
straight down, so, Oh, there's the dice trivia.
Yeah, I think I'm just going to keep it straight down.
Hey, fair enough. Respect.
Yeah. As God intended.
Yeah, absolutely. Oh, shit.
Can you go see my rolls? Nope.
What you get.
Five, four. Six, five, five, five.
What? Whoa, got God among men.
I listen, I'm not even gonna separate this.
I'm not even here because I want to make sure that the, the
people I can I can window capture.
Oh wait, no, I can actually just go to the screen because Cuz I
have it up there like so perfect that but you can see my roles
here and it's a 56 55 54 54, 6555, right there on the screen,
that's crazy. I actually rolled all eight, so
nice crazy. I didn't know that made eight
sided d6s. Yeah, it's crazy.
But yeah, so not too good for me.
Yeah, I've got 63 2631, so some good ones.
Hey 26 was okay, that's good, that's really good for 655
Hunter, are you, are you the all ones and twos?
This, I got a two, five, two four, six one.
So it's brilliant my, I'm very strong.
I have a five and a four my arms.
So you know, Yeah. Very nice.
So if everyone's got their numbers assigned, you will then
generate your saves based on those numbers.
So intelligence is equivalent to your head score Constitution to
your trunks. Core strength is your two arms,
some together and speed is your two legs scores some together. 4
5, 6 and 4. For my intelligence Corps.
Okay. Hmm, can't take a hit.
Got myself a 24. Yeah me too.
Don't don't get hit there. Listen.
If I die, I'll make sure that is by far, the least glorious
death, any of us have ever experienced.
It's going to be almost pathetic.
So, hey, at the very least, you'll be injured.
There we don't know what will happen yet.
Okay. Oh I'm from Moore's.
Extend 10. Whoo beefy.
Boy, jeez, you're gonna carry the party.
Yeah, we'll just support you because now you'll generate your
abilities. So first up we have luck so
you're going to roll D6 equal to your intelligence.
So if you have a three intelligence you would roll 3 D6
for your luck. Ocean.
He was total that up. I can turn on, how do I erase
the dice out of the thing and just go get an ex.
Okay. Yep, there you go.
And what luck scores that everyone get an eight.
Oh if you if you Hunter there's a shared ice thing at the bottom
and you can actually like so it shows on the top left.
Yeah, I got it. I can't see.
And I got a 16. Oh cool.
And then we can all see what we all did.
I'm going to be honest. I actually while we're sitting
here and you guys are rolling stats, I wrote all of my stats
ahead of time because I just read listen to our episode and
we ready. So I was like I know you all
this off the bat so I already have my are you go my strength
bonus and then my pace which is just speed.
Anyway so somebody came prepared.
Okay, he's one did his homework. All right.
So now you'll double your
Constitution to get your injury maximum.
Or here. Yeah.
Yeah, for my go. Okay, cool!
Sick! Hey not not everyone is equal in
the world of hell. Yeah.
Yeah, 12. Yeah, I was about to say
sometimes you have an Adonis in the party, okay?
I mean this is kind of our on Donna's right now with the sweet
sweet eyes going on. That when you hold beautiful
eyes, gorgeous, gorgeous baby blues.
If you're only listening to this, you're missing out, you
should come in and check. Whatever's going on with the
India right now. Yeah, you need to experience
evil. Andy, like not just the sound of
his voice, but his Visage, you know?
Like Hey. They lion.
So this glorious. Glorious scarf.
Someone's gotta bring some sex appeal to the show.
Yeah, I know. Thank God and he's here.
All right, so what do you got? We're just beards and nihilism.
Tell Andy, shut up. Alright, so now you guys are
going to reference your strength.
So Hunter, why don't you Me your strengths or I have a plus 2 or
my strength was not so mine. Say yeah, I'll call us to.
All right. Andy, what about you?
I have a nine plus, two plus two, and then so that would be a
plus 2 as well, plus 2's all around.
Yeah, we're some strong mofos place to try everyone.
You get a plus 2 and plus to a classic me.
And then finally, your pace is comparable to speed.
Mmm. All right, and let's see.
Why doesn't everyone roll me a D6 to get your starting coin and
we'll buy some weapons and armor?
How's that sound? Hell, yeah.
Yes. 366 for me as well so I guess is a good thing.
I got these guns with me. You can punch someone to death.
Oh shit. Nice metal.
All right, does everyone have the equipment lists in front of
them? I do.
Hmm, cool, I should No. Ryan always bringing up the rear
as usual. Yeah I didn't do anything for
the streaming. All I just showed up you know
just just hit record, just hit it straight.
All right. Yes, I have it.
I'm gonna download this. We can get it in a window.
All right. So I only yeah you got three,
you gotta you gotta think about what you're going to be
grabbing. Well, fuck me.
And speed is like the max speed that you can have.
Yeah, so say that you have a ten-speed, if you got the
leather armor it would reduce your speed to 60 because you're
wearing armor. Riveting.
Vodcast content. Yes, so hmm.
What do we do here? I can't even have a sword.
So the question, do I go with chain mail?
Because my speed is for already, Makes sense.
I think so. And do we buy ammo for missile
weapons Helm is not an ammo counting game and just got ammo.
Excellent. Okay.
So again, if we so if the leather armor Pace, it's six.
No matter. What if your pace is higher than
six, right? Yes.
Okay, speed rather I think, I think it was pacing the old PDF
and I changed it to speed. Because it made it made more
sense to me for it to change your initiative rather than
yours feed in combat. Right.
Hunter. What are you grabbing get
leather armor. I'm thinking about getting a
pike. and then, Yeah. Actually, I'm gonna get leather
on my longsword classic. Yeah.
Classic. Yeah.
Got one hand. Open to flip somebody off with
middle finger and my sword. This Orton board for me.
Makes it too easy. Maybe you'll pick up a board
along the way, who knows, who's gonna stand behind Ryan?
Yeah, with this big, this big slab of beef right in front of
you. Hey dude.
All right, I'm going now with chainmail going all the way for
the chain mail their ice and for weapons.
I am taking a flail sick with that last.
Would that last bit of coin? I'm taking a buckler as well.
Nice. All all good.
All around in my opinion. Yeah the ignore Shield thing.
I'm like 'I Yeah, oh yeah. Don't forget like just for
everyone listening out there are certain weapons have certain
properties associated with it, the flail actually ignores
Shields which is pretty handy. And they get in close and take
out there. There, beefy, boys.
What is the weapon Dismounts? A writer when doubles are rolled
Yeah so when you roll your so when you when you attack you
roll hit location and damage when it's doubled.
Like you know, if you roll two threes that would actually
Dismount the writer, Sick. Yeah, there's this game.
Does not let anyone get any edges in.
Excellent. And Ryan.
What about you? What are you grabbing?
Well now since since I only have three gold, I can either have to
armor and a in a cost one weapon or I could have one arm at a
cost to weapon. And that's my that's my that's
my debate right now. I mean you can get cost one
armor, a cost one Shield, so a Buckler and then you could get,
you know, a cost one weapon. Oh yes, I mean that would keep
me from that would give me to without reducing my Pace at all.
Yeah, I'm gonna go. No, because the short sword.
And you picked a flail? Andy?
Yes, a flail. Well, I don't pick the same
thing as you. It's a great weapon for 11 going
on. I Wanna Be Like You God, versity
like you. Yeah, until I can get one more
gold because I would love to do buckler padded in a short sword,
but I can't tell, I'll just do flail. 20 to fly, all padded in
a buckler. Flail, padded Buck or good
choices, good choices. And then finally, I guess we'll
pick names you guys have any ideas or you want to pull up a
generator? I like we have at home, specific
name generator II have, what's known as the Warfighter
generator? And it makes men-at-arms for
you, but it also gives you a name as well.
It shouldn't I'll take, I'll take a generated name.
I was just going to call him scabby, but I'll take whatever
else, you know. post that in the chat here and you throw that
into Discord for me so I can because it'll mess up the
windows open chat and I got sure thing.
Okay, here we go, hilarious. These are all real medieval
names, by the way, medieval names and nicknames.
I have been blessed as nog the sluggard of live eek.
The Veatch, the beach, there's a Queue at the end.
Secure at the end. Mine permanent chat for Masher.
I'm Han and blue cheek peers, men.
Blue cheese quiet. Why are you called Blue cheek?
Yeah, as a kid I got into a lot of fights and I'd lose a lot and
they just bruised up my cheeks. Really bad to smack your cheeks.
That's that they just slap me in the face as a little kid, you
know, a lot until you do. They bruise over Andrews, copper
opal, but these are called me Blu cheek, you know, perfect.
T', a moment. Yeah tasos and all into a chat
for me too, so I can put it in the names real quick.
So I got Albert the Butcher of low Sate The fox, you get those
good roles in the cool name and then the lowest amount of money
for the worst shit. Yep, this is a Ryan heavy game.
Yeah, that's okay. Hopefully he won't do it.
Some idiot did last time. We play the game and blow
everything up really early on for no fucking reason.
So, Yeah, we don't have a good laugh out of that one.
Yeah, yeah. We do.
We'll see how long it takes you guys to ruin this one.
I can't I can't really. I cannot tell you how much I am
not the person you want to give the gravity ball to, you know?
I mean like the moment had that happened.
I was like, oh, this mistake, you might think that, but I see
that as you're exactly the person to be practical too.
Well, pulled out that. Plasma grenade.
Yeah. Ryan ovals drops it down to the
foot that generator Andy. Why are you called the sluggard?
Because when I was young, I used to slap this other little kid in
the face and music. You became best friends after
that. Yes, absolutely perfect.
Is actually my half cousin twice removed on my mother's side.
So there you go. Okay.
Albert did someone send me the names?
I'd message you mine. So, no, all on separate chats
and I got it, I got it. I should have just created a
chat for all of us and then you are Hannon.
I think I need to invest in some eye cream, not having these
massive bags. Under my eyes is like, Doing
wonders for me, really boost in the self-esteem.
Yep. Hey.
Source of Victory through an exclamation point riding in
there for me. So, I would say you got out
there, exclamation point Trident in the chat.
Cecil's got it. Hello neighbor.
All right, and let me just this again, you are Nagi No, you're
not gay. Nagi.
That's exactly how it's pronounced Nagi.
It's not a not gate nog. All right.
Well, it's your name. No, I like Nagi now, he's fine.
Oh Nagi, I'm imagining the like like super wide hipped avatar
from Dark. Souls 2 in like the chainmail
set just like way too big to be moving around that fast and
heavy armor. It's funny.
I didn't know where you were going with that nice wide hips.
What you're talking about though?
Yep. Am I the only one who just who
just makes like chubby characters and Dark Souls?
Like, every single one of them going on here, I make my
characters. All slightly fit bald, dudes.
So I create the most gremlin-looking character you
could possibly imagine in All Souls games.
Thank you very much. I expect that Hey, sirsa.
As you listening at home, cerissa Victory, close friend of
the show, said that when he plays Dark Souls, he makes a
wife. Who's that?
Run around in dirty way dresses. And every soul is getting so
respectable honestly respectable.
So That's, that's an aesthetic. Well, I'll look I'm Hunter as
handan. Nice fancy.
Look at this way to go right in here and Applause.
Ryan, you know, he's doing it. He's doing his work.
Here we go. Ryan's the, the heart and soul
of all of us that not just not just in here, all of humanity.
So if that's what sucks about. Yeah, we all strive to be like
Ryan. Yeah, heavy weight.
Whoa. Listen not trying to trying to
drop some. I'll be so I need to point it
out so we have characters. Let's fucking do this, let's do
it. Hell yeah.
So it's the 17th century, the middle of Italy and you three
are walking down a stormy rainy Road in the middle of nowhere.
You three have been contracted to visit a roadside Inn and
confiscate a secret formula concocted by Nicholas.
Flamel the famous Alchemist himself this formula.
Is said to make lead into gold and The Innkeeper will protect
it with his own very own life. So you three have found
yourselves here and you're approaching the end, your
cresting, a hill and you can just see it over there.
The it's known as The Butcher's Block in.
Hmm, it sounds coming. It's the squat two-story little
like in there's rooms on the Second Story, there's probably
like a kitchen or something on the ground floor along with a
Tavern room. But yeah, you got this, this
roadside Inn in front of you in the middle of nowhere.
How do you guys approach? From the I think from the frame
of front door, kind of guy. So you know, my confidently walk
through. I got to intellect so not not
the brightest bulb. A little more bright.
Letting him go first, hahaha into as my dump stat for So I'm
going to, I'm going to let him go first.
See I look around and I see like, so there's an end as look,
like, anyone's, like keeping Lookout or, like, is aware of
our Approach at all. Now, that you can see, no, and
why don't you describe hand? And for us as you're like,
checking the place out. Yeah.
Hannan is you he's fairly old right now.
He's not family. He's like, he's getting up there
though. He said, you know, in his 60s
and he Was at one point. I'm obviously incredibly golf
but now it's not so much. You several jobs have left him
like, just ugly and pockmarked and scarred.
And, you know, he's taking a lot of hits to the head and so, he's
just not in CTE. It's just like, no, it's CTE.
Like, if chronic like too many hits to the head.
You're like her. She walks Yes yes, why is old
man? In your 60s?
17th century. Yes, indeed Century 60s, the guy
- olds, they come. So the career veteran, NASA
career mercenary. All right, ya know, from where
you are? It does it seems pretty quiet.
Actually, you don't see anybody like outside, you don't see
anybody, like peering out of like, Windows or anything.
It seems pretty quiet right now. Listen guys, we get in there.
Just let me do the talk I speak. I speak the local language.
Hell yeah. That's what this is.
Oh. So you just talk like that?
Yeah. Okay.
And they understand. Hey, Pizza.
Pasta. Meathead doing all they can to?
Yeah, so yeah. I guess I, we approached the
front door of the end. Okay.
Yeah. Yeah.
You you approach the the door you head in and I'll describe
the like the Signage for the place that's like pretty
gruesome actually. It's like this like this like
cartoon butcher with a meat cleaver like like looming over a
Butcher's Block, with like a pig's head, like a bloody Pig
said on the Butcher's Block just hanging over the front door but
you head in and the first thing you see, is what you think is
maybe like a barroom brawl or fight taking place.
But what you see is this, like, Small like mousey looking man
being dragged a towards the front door by this like pretty
like big like chiseled like pretty rough-looking dude
towards the front door and that's when you recognize the
small mousy man as the barkeep one, good serve on brog.
Who you've been instructed is in possession of this formula.
He's in the big guys like dragging him out.
Yeah. Like by the collar and you know
by the back of his pants just like dragging him towards the
front door and handling him. Cool.
I come on the watch him, drag him outside and beat them up and
then jump on them afterwards. So I know where you guys are at.
Are there horses or anything nearby?
Does does like anyone look like they have set up to like make a
getaway but I can tell so there is a stables, but as far as like
any horses, like out in the open, you know, you don't see
any, I would like to follow them fairly nonchalant.
Well, can you describe sorry? No.
Go ahead again. Can you describe the barroom
brawl that's going on? Is other PR other people
fighting in here? No, the bar room is actually
empty besides the tone. So it's just the this man
dragging the small Mouse in and out.
Yeah, whoever this guy is he's grabbed hold of the barkeep and
it's like dragging him out towards the door.
When you guys walk in they at the both of them actually like
look up surprised at you. No, he's going to step forward
and put his hand out. Don't know.
He don't forget. Oh, salt.
And as you say that, why don't you describe noogie for us?
Noogie is handsome and very round, a mighty bright, eyed,
tans in slightly. Rusted from the rain chainmail.
Like he's, he's definitely like, well, armored and Very strong
looking. But you can tell that he's not
like the fastest or the toughest guy because he Huff's a little
too much from like caring the chainmail around.
So when he says halt it's like breathy like alt like he's
struggling to walk through the mud.
Yeah, yeah, there we go. Jack Black.
But like with like tree trunk arms and he says halt.
What are you? Doing with this barkeep.
And noogie, I think you have a bit of competition with this
with this big chiseled bloke. He's got some piercing Baby
Blues on him. Hmm, he looks to you, he looks
back at the bar. Keep goats her and he says it's
no concern of yours this. This black adhere A shorted me
on a, on my bar tab. Noogie, let's the head of the
flail drop with a clunk onto the wooden floor.
And says, well is a bar tab worth the Broken Skull.
I draw as well, you know, in if like mine clunks out as well.
If we're gonna go. I also pull out my flail, the
dude drops, good sir, to the floor and holds his hands up and
says hold on now. You wouldn't threaten a brother
of the Freemasons now, would you?
And he pulls his cloak aside and they're on his breast is the,
you know, the the, like, what is it, called?
The money. Yeah.
The like, like compass and ruler for the Freemasons.
Amazing, symbol. Yeah.
What's it called? Yeah.
You know what I mean? You know, I'm talking about
over. It's all over license plates in
crap, we've seen it the square and Compass.
There you go. No, he's going to turn back to
Hannon and I'll bear Albert. Albert Albert and you'll burn
like, and looking at it, it's just burped.
Okay, it looks puzzled and ask, dude, do we do put what we
threaten? I think we do.
Yeah, fuck them. This is all all standing in
front of him Whispering. He's got the around so he has
the eyes of a purebred husky, be careful.
I know I don't like it is this is this is the character
development moment is noogie. The kind of guy who just doesn't
give a shit is gonna crack this guy.
I think so these are pieces shit mercenary and Is, is this man?
Is this Freemason armed? When he moved his cloak aside,
you could see a dagger strapped to his belt.
He's strapped. Yeah.
Do you want to threaten the, the Miss secret members of The
Illuminati? What?
I hmm, he stands there like shocked by this pondering for a
moment he says looking down again at good sir and he says,
this man is conspiring with the rosicrucian.
You would not stand in my way, would you?
Baby. It appears, we are standing here
in your way. If you want to go in peace, you
can go in peace, but you leave him here.
Hmm. He he yeah, he he's not willing
to he's not willing to do that. He says that he says The
rosicrucian need to be stopped. I need this man.
What is his business? What is your business with him?
Yes great awesome get to quit. Lord of the Rings.
Our businesses our own sir, okay?
Just starts swinging the flail back and forth and walking out
around to the left of him. Alright.
Alright, let me get some We get some tokens ready, just in case.
Oh yeah, we're about to have a fight.
Three armed mercenaries Versa, Freemason with a dagger.
Hmm. All right, it's all right.
Taking a look at the vtt. Why don't you guys put some
tokens out? Okay how do I do that?
So you'll see over on the right. There's a like list of tokens.
I see grab one and put it out. I am be who's drawing on my that

Don't worry, I got you covered. You're the fish for the daggers
and I'll grab it. I'll grab this guy.
Yeah. Alright, perfect.
And if you can click on them and type your name in that would
help a lot. Here we go.
all right, so as you're winding up, Noogie.
And as this Freemason pulls his dagger.
Silence. It's that moment right before
battle begins. That You know, you know the
feeling there's a little bit of electricity in the air when all
of a sudden there's breaking glass from upstairs and everyone
looks up and looks around at each other.
Is that is that one of yours? Yes, that's our secret.
Third mem fourth member, I'm good with numbers.
I didn't have anyone else with me.
I don't trust him. Can we see anybody up there?
Can we see anything? No, you have to go upstairs.
You guys stay here. I'll check it out. as obviously,
our strongest member Are you capable member?
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
So I, you know, I keep my I like keep I walked towards the stairs
while I keeping an eye on what's going on.
I start making my way up the stairs.
All right. Well you to our are watching
this guy, Hannon heads upstairs and you're slowly creeping up
the steps one by one. And you can hear holding out
your Italian fingers for protection case.
Yeah, yeah. You can hear bickering, from one
of the upstairs rooms between two voices, both are heavily
accented. Why don't you give me
intelligence, save to see if you can figure out what their accent
is. It's to D6 roll under my right
meat or roll under. Yeah so I obviously fail
spectacularly. They're definitely there you
have an ear for these things. They're definitely.
They're definitely Spanish. Okay cool sick.
Yeah. Oh I see hangers there.
Bickering, like, but in a room with the closed door?
Yes, it seems to be like if if this top floor is sectioned off
into rooms, it's definitely the largest of the rooms upstairs.
Okay. I kind of like slowly approached
or and see if I can hear what they're saying.
Yeah, you approach it actually. Hey, sorry.
I'm going to walk up to the door and kick it open and say what
the fuck is going on? All right.
Yeah, you do. So you kick the door open and
standing there. Amidst the broken glass window
are two individuals like draped in dark clothing, and both
wielding. Daggers the fuck's going on in
here. They, they hold up their hands
and they both look at each other and say, am nothing.
There we just we just needed a doing here.
They both. Look at each other confused.
We are fridge. What's that?
Yes it's a foggy little landed east of here to the West, get
back out the window you just came through.
No, we're here for that formula. What formula?
I think? You know, it's formula we are
talking about I've never not formula a day in my life.
Okay, can we hear all of this going on?
You can definitely hear some arguing from upstairs, the from,
yeah, coming from upstairs. I just called down like they're
too weird. Spanish dudes.
In robes up here, We are French. We are not Spanish.
Yeah. So I have they draw on their
weapons or anything. They already had their weapons

Open the door. Definitely like spook them.
Listen, you guys go. Wait, outside.
If there are any formulas in this place, I'll bring it out to
you. We have other business right?
Okay no he gets a little Patient and looks over at Bert and just
kind of gives the nod and he steps in to start smashing on
this. This Freemason dude.
Oh shit. Okay, we're getting into it.
All right, so why don't you step forward and take a swing.
Okay to D6. Yeah, I'm somewhere else.
Yeah, so the first one is damaged and the second one will
be location. Okay?
So here we go. That's the one.
That's a one that is. That is enough.
And what is your location? That is three.
So right in the chest right now, I believe three is.
If I can find it you know. I wrote the thing I should be
able to find it. No, you're right.
Right in the chest. Yep.
So what what does it look like as he just crumples from your
hit. Oh, so noogie like he's been
swinging. It side to side the entire time
and he just kind of like Long arms it around right into his
chest, and definitely like, exhale of blood right at a know,
he's faces as he Crump crushes. This man's rib cage and lungs
egg. Yeah, yeah, easily.
So yeah, he's just like, uber dead and guitar.
The barkeep starts crawling away.
Bert. Yeah.
So I although I am the strongest smartest and fastest, member of
the party have learned to just be quiet and let these guys fuck
around and clean up what happens afterwards.
So I'm gonna just like, uncross my arms and just like start like
cyan, like follow after this guy, if he's crawling, I'm just
going to reach into the back of his pants and just like pick him
up like that. Yeah, you pick him up and he's
just quivering like covered in like the effluvia nice from this
guy that noogie just just completely obliterated and he
says, please please sir, I heard, I heard that you're after
the formula, please? I'll give you anything, please
just just let me go. I just might turn around and
just like walking back to Over here.
Still, like, basically giving him like a, like a, like a
wedgie. The whole way back told him by
his britches guys should. I should I kill these two or
what are we doing? The Freemasons dead, okay?
Hannon, you're upstairs with them.
And this is medium with this. Yes, with these absolute
Spaniards and the two of them like are conversing.
And finally, they says it seems that we are after the same
thing. Perhaps we could work together.
Ah, I am doofy and this is my brother do Pierre.
Funky chilling and you see that they're both like and you see
that they're both identical and at that the front door of the of
the in swings open and standing. There is this Middle Ages woman
dressed very plainly and she's just sort of like standing there
like just sort of like awestruck at what she's saying before her
dislike Man in his own blood in the floor, this like hulking
brute, like manhandling the bar, man, and she doesn't know what
quite what to do. She's she just says, I'm here
for a drink. Not a good night lady and have
you don't have cooking wine at home?
It's her. Are you quite all right?
And the bar, man. Still trembling on the floor,
says Linda. Yes, Linda.
Please come in, come in. Now, the name of the Richard and
makes more sense. And the woman just sort of like,
you know, carefully like tiptoes in and like, takes a seat at a
nearby table and just says the gutter, the usual when you have
a moment, good sir, again, are you quite all right?
And guitar is just sheepishly like nods, but it's like giving
her like the stare down from where he is.
Yeah. Fine.
Both you both you Spaniards. You're hired.
The two of them just like clasp hands and shake and just like it
says the good. Good job, brother.
They are good job, do Pierre. And they follow you great.
I want that downstairs. I'm back.
Yeah, Moochers fine. Make the woman, a drink and I
like giving like the like good job football, but Pat towards
the bar, he jumps like 10 feet into the air.
Like Russia was towards the bar. hey guys, this is is there a new
Buddies do for and duper We take offense to that.
What is your names? Are these the Spaniards?
You spoke of, yes, obviously. Can't you tell by their accents?
This isn't. This is Linda.
She's joining us for a drink and like, noogie slams his like his
flail down on a table. Just letting like blood get
everywhere. So, what's your usual drink to
Linda? Ah, yes, just just a nail.
That is it's quite nice after a Long Day's Work.
And in now realizes that the Freemasons tell.
Holy shit. You guys killed that guy?
Hey yeah, we did it. We saved the bartender.
Drinks all around. Are there like Town guards or
anything that we have to worry about your kind of in the
middle? You are outside of a large-ish
town but this in is kind of out of the way.
So not necessarily. So like our competition is
basically what we have to worry about right now.
Not like the local Lord being like, hey, you must you mucked
up like a local bar. Now, I have to kill you kind of
thing. Not not at the moment.
No, but it's a possibility. It's possibility.
Elbert, good. Sir is getting the drinks.
Ready? And he sidles up next to you and
Whispers to that woman is part of the rosicrucian.
She's here for the formula as well.
Good to us now and will protect it.
I don't care about the formula. I don't care about the
rosicrucian. I'll give it to you as long as
you promise me. Safe.
Passage that, that brute, that you that your friend just
slaughtered, has my wife and children tied up in the back
room. Get us out of here.
And the formula is yours. It's hidden in the Stellar in a
secret compartment, in the back wall.
So in the middle of this giant open empty room with all of
these people sitting there waiting us, we're just having
this like whisper conversation right now, you know, there's
conversation happening. You know here and there?
Yes. Like I'm Levi here and do fear
and yeah, and I'm leaning over Linda just like and it's just
sitting there hand, slowly inching up on y'all's
conversation. Are we talking about?
Just give me a moment, please. So about that.
Drink Goethe. Yes yes the drinks drinks all
around Linda Linda. Here's your's and he walks over
to the table with Linda and noogie and puts one down and
know he puts another one down in front of you. sit up to his lips
staring at Linda's, like Mean, Muggin are bad.
So we're in the relation to this.
Like, if we're at the bar, did he kind of like, not towards
this like back room area? Yeah, it's actually Let's see,
where is the back room? So if you're at the bar right
now, yeah, if you're at the bar right now, there's actually a
door like right next to the stairs up.
Stairs, that leads down into the cellar.
And then where's the back room? Versus the cell are ours at all.
It's all kind of the same doorway.
Like, you can go through there and access the kitchen, the
pantry, and his personal quarters where he says, his wife
and children are tied up currently.
Well, everyone's kind of Meandering and Oinking and
chatting. I'm just going to kind of like
Look around with my drink and kind of like, make my way
towards that door. All right?
As you're making your way towards that door, the front
door of the in opens once more and in steps A thin, but
muscular man with a flamberge strapped to his back and he just
sort of, like, just like trudges in through the into the in and
takes a seat. And says, I need a room and he
hasn't noticed anything like he if he hasn't noticed, he just
doesn't care about the dead body in the floor.
Mmm, I'm Not The Innkeeper. Guitar kind of looks to everyone
and to the man that just stepped in and he says, yes, yes, of
course my good fellow. It'll be a single coin for a
room for the night and the man says take it and he slaps a coin
on the table gets up and goes straight upstairs.
Do you do business like this? Like nightly, I'm a roadside
Inn. How can you say you're looking
for investors? No.
He's going to walk to the front door.
Close the front door and bar the front door.
All right, you do so and everyone to sort of like eyes
you as you do. So, the Inn is full.
Can I still see Albert? You actually saw Albert Albert
if you continued you actually saw him.
Go to the back room. Okay, cool.
Yeah, if if everyone was looking at noogie doing that then I just
kind of like if if the door is open want to like open and shut
the door and go through that. While everyone's looking at him,
I look back at duper and Dulce and I look at them and I like
Point upstairs and then like, do the Cutthroat symbol.
Am I They both look at you. Look at each other nod and they
start heading upstairs. and I stand behind the lady and I like
wave at I wave at Nagi, I'm like Yeah.
Not not.
He walks over to where his drink is sitting on, on the table and
just kind of waits for the Spanish Duo to disappear for a
moment. All right, all right.
You all setting up for a bloodbath.
You're really just gonna kill all these people and like, we're
going to really simplify the issues were having right now.
Albert, you are in the kitchen. Currently I don't think I've
ever described to me because I'm definitely a beef boy.
You're right. Described Elbert for us, but I
do have like padded armor but it's definitely a sleeveless.
Because I do have, I do have these guns, you know, fives and
got a shot straight, Gal Gadot all the guns.
So it's just like padding here and then the flail attached and
then, yeah, that's him, you know, kind of scrap, metal jaw,
definitely a butt chin, like that whole thing.
Like, That's me. So you're beautiful.
I'm like you know what it's like.
Do you know the guy that does the voice of What movie I'm
thinking of where the guy's a llama, who's go from bigger,
Patrick Warburton. So I'm like I'm kind of like
crunk mixed with the guy who plays the voice of Kronk.
Yeah. But I didn't have a fire have a
for intelligence. I mean, I know.
So like that's that's the kind of vibe I have though.
It's like a parody. It's like Chris Evans and that
movie where he pretends to be a good looking guy, even though he
is a good-looking guy, it's like a parody of a good-looking guy
bull. Yeah.
I'm glad to know that none of our are.
None of our intellect is above a for, you know, hey, you're a
rough-and-tumble, your rough-and-tumble group.
Wait, can you say the intellect? The six actually.
Oh, I'm not the smartest in the group.
Oh boy, there we go. Real smart decision.
Alberto Arnaz as you're standing in the kitchen.
You see that there is a door, there's two doors, In this
kitchen, one leading to what looks like pantry and one
leading to what appears to be. Maybe the private quarters that
he directed you to that swings. Open and standing.
There are four guards and a dog. Do they see me?
Yeah, they see big time. And behind them are a woman and
two children who are just getting their bindings off the
back door through the private quarters.
Wide-open seems that they came in through the back.
They're getting their bindings off.
Yeah, it's like they were bound up and it looks like these
guards released them. Oh So I think the guards are
good, guys. Well, their guards think you are
good. You're a good guy.
Oh, hey, Cooter. Sent me back.
To check on his family. How are you doing?

beefy, guys. All I'll, you know, chain mailed
up and they say mo and explaining to us what we're

Who are you? We are the King's Guard.
Oh, cool. I'm a gamma Kings, man.
I'm all for King. George you want to show us your
papers? They're actually at the bar.
Let me just lead you that way and I'll find those are fascists
and I'll just turn heel and then out the door, I go.
All right, so lead the way back into the bar room.
Yeah, I'm actually going to shut the door behind me real quick.
Hold it for a second and just say, oh hey.
So for kingsguard And like, thought, like point back to what

And what clearly sounds like two bodies hitting the floor from
upstairs. Heist.
I solved the problem. Look at me to buy news.

Huh, right? But that's that's a bit later as
she left the guards in. Yeah no, yeah.
So I left that I left it and I open let the door go and I just
like kind of quick walk back toward the other guys just like

They don't look happy and they're they're trudging in with
their dog and they see good sir there and they inform good sir
that he is to be taken to the Palace to have be presented to
the king tomorrow morning. Mmm.
I look at it, I look at Gunther and Mike He said that is an
honor. That's been and good sir looks

junk, okay, okay. Alright, EP.
Odds it goes after noogie evens, it goes after Giancarlo noogie.
Do you like dogs? Yes, well this one doesn't like
you damn brother really my legs alone.
Roll defense numbers low know. Two. yeah, to your Right arm,
how many 010 damage. Okay, so reduce down 2-0 away.
So, I've reached my injury maximum here, let me roll the
injury real quick. Let's let's see what injury so
seven. Hairline fracture.
And I'm out right here. It's been UK, your maximum,
you're dead. Oh my God.
Holy shit. TP K, TP K.
TK in the chat please. Holy Mole or TP case.
Oh my goodness! Holy crap.
That's deadly as fuck. Wow.
It was fucking dumb fucking real.
We just, and it's crazy because we killed several people easily
right before that. You know, I know I was like,
We're badass mofos and I I knew I knew I should have given you
guys some like, wedges on your survival clock so you can like,
do some stuff, but, you know, that's, that's the point of the
adventure. It's meant to be a bloodbath.
Yeah, no, it was a bloodbath and we're either direction.
I was going to murder everyone in there.
Anyway. I mean, I forgot just how like I
knew it was deadly when we were reviewing it, but actually
playing the game. The fact that it's pretty much
just, like, everyone always hits.
It's just reduction. Yeah.
It's fucking credibly difficult. If you're fighting multiple bad,
guys, you could have, like, you can roll all sixes and all your
stats, but if you get two hits to the same area, twice in a row
game, over could be, it's great. It's crazy how much the combat
swings because I've had Combats where the men-at-arms just
completely dominate like with their roles.
And then I've had something like this where you guys were just
getting absolutely like, why piled on, you know, well, that's
how I have like no Constitution and could not take any injuries
and I guess I got two hits to the head.
So the high frenzy role was, what did it in for me?
Because I had, you know, four points is soaked, but I Last
because the ding frenzy knocked everything up so high.
Yeah. Now there's one time.
I hit that dog for like 10 damage.
How did it stay up? So the way damaged works is that
you need to do at least two like at least a threshold of damage
to actually injure it so it's not necessarily that there is an
HP pool. It's just that you need to get
above a certain threshold to actually enjoy.
ER it. So, what was the dogs threshold
to to damage? So I did so explain because I
didn't end damage, so I'll pass the to.
So then wire does the other eight go.
There's it's just a threshold. So there's no, like no way.
Just a just got an injury essentially after ya got an
injury like each of these enemies like that, have like an
amount of injuries that they take.
Yeah, it's cool. It doesn't really matter.
Like if you roll like massive damage, as long as you get the,
the goal is to get the You know, I just out of here has off like
that. So that's really cool sodium
that way. Yeah, that can you can it's
really fucking totally different tactical setup than any other TT
RPG. I love to like play that again
and like really be like okay we're in combat right now and
I'm just going to move away. Like these guys are slow, slow
boys, stood in a line and absolutely Imagine kiting
Giancarlo around that fight with his to move.
Yeah the guards the whole time. Yeah.
And just having them I mean II was like I almost never pick
like missile weapons and anything dude.
You know I didn't look like but like in this like me and you
know if you have a bow and you've good speed like your
whatever like you could stay just far enough away and fire
off some rounds into combat and sauce and some things up.
Join me. Think the bow?
Was that expensive, right? So you could be no, I definitely
with my speed a bow or some type of range weapon would definitely
been a way to go. Even ya later or something
because these guards they only took two hits a piece.
So, you know, you had that bow, you can go Bam, Bam, and take
one out like, yeah, I killed a guard.
You know, I find my fucking, I married that guy.
So almost at block the injury like two parentheses to.
The first one is just threshold. The second is Number of
injuries, it takes before it dies, right?
The other way around. The and one in parentheses is
the threshold. The one outside is like how many
injuries? Gotcha.
So, 64 means the force of
threshold and it can take up to six injuries.
So you have to do it at least for damage six, top wall.
And then they'll get an injury. Yeah, got it, got it, got it,
got it for like a Raider, something Yeah.
Big big beefy, boys. Gotta gotta got it.
Yeah, yeah. Definitely.
At playing it once I would do things very different if we play
together. Yeah, that was cool.
I like us find like super fun. I definitely I will next time
think of combat differently than I mean, because well, maybe I
won't because I love playing a dumbass who hop straight into
combat with no thoughts. Like up, like, in the upstairs
where I was like, okay, why Try sneaking in like no, that's not
what my character would do, you know?
I like, I like that. Personally, that was nice.
So now that I'm excusing, actually, that's what my
caricature would do. But like, you know, sometimes
like okay, well, especially the, you know, the word in these
one-off. So, these creators Stress the
game a little. See what fucking happened?
Yeah, try to. Not only do it in one our
City's. Greatest, not all of these
episodes will last longer than like an hour and 15 minutes is a
good bite size like you guys got to watch this play Helm.
You saw with the comment like and how beautiful it can be and
it's like very like the ocean. Yep.
Yeah. I think it's great.
I think that was a like super funny.
Yeah, I really like the All of this and how different it is.
Yeah it is different. Yeah yeah yeah.
I mean I definitely set out to get something that was a little
bit different than the normal combat fair that we get in
games, you know? Yeah.
But this is really great, you know.
It took it, you know, the reason that I run the bastards Group is
because it's just you can pick up and play, make a character
instantly and like you might die real quickly, but you could just
think of a character like this is not the same functionally.
It's like the same like my group really love this because it's
just like it was going to pick up and play.
The rules are like very straightforward.
It's just d6s if we if we had another two hours to play we'd
be rolling up the Freemason group that's walking in the door
next like what the hell's going on in here?
I'm just going to say that entire time that you guys were
fighting, you heard some more knocking on the front door of
the bar. There's still, there's still
another character that just never got a chance to lock in
that door. I was like, guys, that was The
smart thing to do. As soon as we got it, just like,
so does it was it Giancarlo whose name was?
Yeah. What was his deal?
He just wanted a room for the night.
So if we just let him alone, if you would left them alone, and
if you had not made any noise, he would have not come down and
just started taking heads, but there's no way we weren't going
to make any noise, right? Like those guards are coming
after us. Well, you know, they found a
good teachers, family, tied up so they knew what was going on.
And if the Venture says they come in through the back door,
so they would have seen that will kill will come next time.
So, yeah. Well, you guys what you guys
think of the adventure? I loved it.
I had to, I think I like this whole like, a being in an inn
and like, we just killed some dude like more people.
Just keep showing up things, just keep getting worse and
worse and worse, like a buzzing, a bottle episode but like, super
bloody And I also really liked playing in a historical setting.
Yeah. We're in Italy.
And these, you know, Frenchman show up.
And then the king and the King. Well, yeah, it is a George.
I guess it would depend on where we are in Italy because Italy
was split up into a couple different point in time ending
on if it was paid. Well, John.
Thanks for coming on man. Thanks for the stage kiss.
Thanks for just move on screen tpk which is the exact inverse
of what happened. Last creators night.
Literally everybody. I'm happy to be of service.
Yeah, that was a really good other end of this.
Spectrum. Yeah, Helm is fun.
I think it's like a very interesting.
Take on this erpg, especially, like, like the combat like the
comments super interested. It's definitely a much different
way to think about it, and I decided to play it again.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I love to, you know, get a group
together and, you know, see how fast that combat can go and
people know the hit locations and everything.
Yeah, totally. Yeah, when you, you are now the
