Setting the Stage Episode 49 – Josh and Last Fleet

Published by

on

This episode features one of the other CRIT award nominees from 2024, Josh, who tells us about his game Last Fleet. Josh and his partner, Becky, are the main drivers at Black Armada Games which makes TTRPGs (among other games). Last Fleet is a Powered by the Apocalypse game that simulates a situation similar to that of the Battlestar Galactica show. In the far future humanity is on the run in the titular Last Fleet. Human planets have been taken over by the Corax, a fungal species that is able to infiltrate Earthling society through perfect mimics of humans. Now humanity is in a desperate bid to escape from the Corax, but the fleet is low on fuel and Corax infiltrators could already be aboard sabotaging the ships that protect the last of the human species.

Josh presents his games through actual plays on the podcast, Black Armada Tales. There’s a bunch of games that have been featured, but here is a link to the first episode of the Last Fleet arc.

You can check out Last Fleet on the Black Armada website.
Or you can check out the general Black Armada website for their other games. That includes the latest Lovecraftesque release and a playtest for a soon-to-be-released, grimdark, scifi game called Ex Tenebris.

Hello,

I’m Isaac

Welcome to the GoCorral website! I’m Isaac Shaker and this is a place for me to write about D&D and occasionally other topics. I host a podcast called Setting the Stage that interviews different DMs about their campaigns. I’m currently focused on completing the Cimmeria campaign setting and turning it into a book.

89 – Bunnies vs. the Borg D&D (Avery and Traumwald) – Setting the Stage, Campaigns for D&D and Other RPGs

Avery presents her world of Traumwald which means Dream Forest. Traumwald was a peaceful, magical world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals of all kinds. Their peace was shattered by the attack of the Ichal, a biomechanical hive mind species similar to the Borg. The Ichal are led by the dark god Ulvakros who seeks to absorb all life into himself. The Ichal have spread across different dimensions and now they have come to Traumwald as the next stop on their mission of multiversal conquest.Traumwald has a D&D 5.0e supplement that Avery made. It's a setting and a campaign in one book. Species generation rules allow you to create any sort of animal species for your PC. There are lots of new subclasses to play and a new base class, the Ascetic. The campaign is adaptable with a dynamic faction system for tracking the events as they unfold at your table. Each campaign run in Traumwald is guaranteed to be different as the factions fluctuate and change to player actions. You can lift the faction system for your personal campaign as well!You can find Traumwald on Avery's itch.io page.Check out the Setting the Stage website!Want to be on the show?
