https://systemmastery.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/systemmastery61.mp3 Is Slimer the Judas of the Ghostbusters franchise?  We delve into the long-gone Ghostbusters RPG, and apparently hit our heads on the bottom.  This RPG is tiny and weird and unfinished, but definitely worth a look.  Enjoy!

Episode 4 – Prime Directive: The Star Fleet Universe RPG

https://systemmastery.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/systemmastery42.mp3 This episode goes out to Dan, the only person we know of who ever played this game.  We have to assume he hated it as much as we did.  We’re discussing, Prime Directive, the Star Fleet Universe RPG.  Come along and learn about everything from Toltec Space Lizards to Glowing Maori.  Just be careful not to say Star Trek.  No amount of this game is Star Trek.

Episode 3 – Tales From the Floating Vagabond

https://systemmastery.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/systemmastery3.mp3 This time around, we review Tales from the Floating Vagabond, from Avalon Hill.  It’s a comedic sci-fi roleplaying game set the exact center of a cartoon universe.  Shticks, poorly named skills, boring alien races, and space NAZIs abound!  With such zany highlights as [a cat meows] and [I think one of us farts], we delve into finding out if this classic is worth the paper it’s printed on, and it is printed on surprisingly cheap paper.

There, that was the best attempt we can make at recreating the roughly 300 pages of Buffy-style dialog we slaved over to bring you a hot fresh System Mastery.  Enjoy!
