Show notes

A WAIR x Effekt Podcast Livestream Collaboration to celebrate the end of the Tales of The Old West Kickstarter!

The Sherwoods is a family of homesteaders, taking a day off from the farm to catch a wild horse as a birthday treat for the youngest member of the family, on their 16th birthday. However, the nice day out doesn't go as smoothly as they'd hoped.

Tales of the Old West is the TTRPG of gritty, hard-hitting action and adventure set in a historical recreation of the 1870s American West, a world where the dangers you face lurk in the hearts of other folk, or from the very land beneath your feet. It uses Free League Publishing’s award-winning Year Zero Engine, adapted to fit the Western theme.

Fiona (WAIR and The DM's Book Club) will be joined by Michelle (Secrets of St. Kilda), Lou (Of Dice & Them), Liz (Realms of Peril & Glory) and Jordan (Modified Roll) for a special one off scenario run by Dave Semark (Effekt Podcast/Game Designer of TOTOW).

This one-shot’s audio was taken from the Tales of the Old West Livestream which was broadcasted on Sept 30th 2024..
