  • A treat for your space age ears

    What a joy, what a treat! This Lancer game is a fantastic listen with very animated PCs, baddies who are just trying to survive in the Lancer hellspace, and very smooth and fast moving combat which is impressive with how many rules and little bits there are in Lancer combat. Looking forward to listening to more, keep up the great work!

  • what if Firefly was queer Mecha? an awesome Lancer Actual Play podcast

    I recently started playing the Lancer TTRPG and found this awesome Actual Play podcast. Great production, fantastic voices and story. The characters are fabulous and I would take a bullet coffee for Vim. The GM really knows their lore though they have another Lancer podcast that’s more lore-heavy (and I’ll also review some day). This is more episodic and space Western-like. On the frontiers of Union space. They use TOTM for the battles which, for such a tactical game, works thanks to the excelle... more

  • Absolutely amazing

    This show is an absolute diamond in the rough. The Lancer community is still relatively small compared to other ttrpgs so to find a show as high quality as this is just amazing. Every player is an absolute star and Reed is one of the best gms I’ve ever seen. If I could get any of my friends to listen to me rambling on about this game I would literally throw this podcast at them. Thank you all for this absolute gem and representing the community so well.
