Traveller Actual Play: R.A.V.E.N. ep 6, "Solomani Salami"


This is my favorite session so far, because this is the one where it feels like everyone's character clicked into place and we all started role-playing as a group rather than a bunch of individuals. Denton is in full Dr Strangelove mode, and his invention of "salami" as an insult to Solomani was inspired. 

Also, Merry Christmas! Chrome has a very special present for all of you in the first 2 minutes of the video. 

 

The intro and outro was done by my friend Jay Peterson,  a professional actor. You can hire him at jaythebarbarian.com. He also has a novel, Renfield Blues: The First Grunt's Grimoire, available for purchase at Amazon in both Kindle and paperback format. It's a fun, fast-paced, and intelligent story that's also amazingly well-written.

If you're a fan of urban fantasy like Dresden Files or Monster Hunter International, feel nostalgic for 1990s horror RPGs from White Wolf, or just like stories with competent gun use and/or magic systems more involved than "I cast fireball!", then this is a book you will enjoy reading.  I'm eagerly looking forward to the sequel.


And here's a standalone version of that segment, for you to use if you want to send it to friends and fans of Traveller. 
 


Merry Christmas to all, and to all a safe Jump.
