Episode 32: Lancer Core Rulebook

About this episode

The hosts discuss the Lancer tabletop RPG and its mechanics.

In this episode of Analytic Dice we stumble through explaining Lancer, a scifi RPG and tabletop mech game (Gabe thought it said lance, so it might be about medieval knights) Analytic Dice is a monthly podcast in which we, Kevin and Gabe, analyze a tabletop roleplaying game system or setting. Before recording each episode we will have played the specific role-playing game or setting under discussion. While there is no perfect system or setting, people do have preferences, and this podcast will explore our actual play experiences with different mechanics, revealing the great, the good, and our opinion on the pain points inherent in each system or setting adaptation.
