I have been thinking about making a second edition of Base Raiders. Back in October 2022, I ran a playtest to try out some ideas before I focused on the night clerk zine. I recently remembered that I had this epsiode, so here it is. Tom and Chris make characters and then we try a short adventure. Enjoy!

The Tomorrow Legion heads to the Colorado Baronies to rescue the Mallsoft muse before the Coalition attacks! The muse lives in a shopping mall turned enclave. A nuclear missile from the pre-rifts era became self-aware and lives in the mall as a benevolent advisor to the inhabitants. It is willing to sacrifice itself to protect the mall but the heroes want to save everyone, even the missile. Can they save the day?

The Tomorrow Legion sends in a team to investigate the extradimensional realm known as the Symphony. The Muse of Classical Music has a realm that is under siege by evil forces. The team has to stop the evil so they can find leads to the locations of other muses. Whoever has the most Muses can enact the Symphony of the End, a powerful magical ritual. What secrets lie in the realm of Classical Music?

After a mysterious courier took over New Vegas, the new government needed all the help it could get. They’ve launched an experimental program to give felons on parole a chance to redeem themselves by investigating minor crimes. Of course, they don’t trust felons to run around on their own, so they’ve programmed a robot as a parole officer to escort the felon. Someone’s stolen cargo from the train yard. Can this unlikely pair of partners find the missing cargo?

In this game, operatives trapped in the lowest levels of the Pit try to fight their way up countless floors of horror to get to the surface, in the wake of a terrible and mysterious subterranean disaster.
