Episodes

BTT Throwback: Fiasco, “Heroes of Pinnacle City” 4 09.07.2020

We introduce our character names, alter egos, and superpowers. In our first few scenes we get a couple origin stories and some player versus player conflicts already... in true fiasco fashion. Jeff chooses a black die and the table frames a ridiculous scene. Johnny gets a black die for his scene involving multiple dimensions, and Jeremy gets a white die and an early lead in Dillon's feud with Kenn...

BTT EoW 2.36: The Void, The Sculptor, and The Flame 09.07.2020

Working their way though the Black House, characters pick up new pieces to the puzzle, face down some unexpected proxies, and rescue the new characters. Sounds productive right? However, there are a few things that will leave you breathless in this explosive and earth shattering episode. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron — Sam Feluge Ellie — Archi J...

BTT Throwback: Fiasco, “Heroes of Pinnacle City” 3 06.07.2020

We're polishing off the character creation phase in this episode, to include some interesting (or disturbing) origin stories, and taking all the loose ends and weaving them together to create a complicated conundrum of how all our characters are more closely connected than anyone realized. Ok, maybe we're just pulling on a thread that will totally unravel the world as we know it. It's a matter of...

BTT EoW 2.35: If I Deem It Necessary 06.07.2020

The two side of the story converge as everyone is focused on the "Black House". The main group works to covertly infiltrate the base, and Archi and Bear are interrogated, seemingly by The Council itself. What are our characters really up against? It appears we have yet to find that out for sure. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron — Sam Feluge Ellie —...

BTT Throwback: Fiasco, “Heroes of Pinnacle City” 2 02.07.2020

In this episode, we continue the hilarious hijinks of assigning Needs, Objects, and Locations to our characters. We also start to postulate how the combinations of these assignments and relationships could create some quite interesting scenes. Our characters start to take shape, but there is still more details to come in the next episode. Game System: Fiasco Cast: Carlin Jeff Jeremy Johnny Jordan...

BTT EoW 2.34: Will Work For Food 01.07.2020

Here's the BIG NEWS!!! We are adding a cast member to Bone Throwers Theater! Everyone welcome Ellie! She has been an outstanding player so far and we can't wait to put out what she has contributed to the story. For her first episode, we see the impact of our previous "side-shots" as we bering back our beloved street kids. We knew there was something compelling about these kids. Now let's see how J...

BTT Throwback: Fiasco, “Heroes of Pinnacle City” 1 27.06.2020

Here's another Throwback to one of our favorite games to play, Fiasco. We chose a superheroes play-set, and with our eccentric imaginations, and dark sense of humor, it's sure to be a series of mishaps and blunders. In this episode, we set up our character relationships, and already we can tell that these characters may be super, but will fall short of being actual heroes. Game System: Fiasco Cast...

BTT EoW 2.33: Commentary 8 26.06.2020

There is a lot going on beneath the surface for our characters so far in season two. In this commentary episode, we explore some of the motivations for those changes and how these might ultimately bode well for the group, despite the perceived lack of cooperation. And as always the player theories abound as we know we have some new and interesting things still yet to be revealed... and what happen...

BTT One-Shot: Zorro 5 25.06.2020

Here's a quick commentary on our play of this new game, and also our review of the changes made to the D6 system. Overall, we concluded that they system has a lot of intriguing aspects that could really make things interesting, especially for the style of play we have in Bone Throwers Theater. So you may just hear more of this in future episodes. System: OpenD6 (2nd Edition preview), from West End...

BTT EoW 2.32: Locker 626 24.06.2020

With two pressing objectives in play the group has to decide which matter is more threatening. They choose to head to the Aquarail station to retrieve the mysterious box, which proved to be a wise decision as they met an agent laying in wait to snatch it for themselves. But were they working for the Fire Drakes, or someone else... perhaps even The Council? System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End G...

BTT One-Shot: Zorro 4 22.06.2020

In this final play episode for our run of Zorro, the players use what they have learned about the system so far to their advantage. And it wouldn't be a Zorro adventure with out the mark of the Z, a thrilling horseback chase, a duel with the big bad, and of course, thunderous applause from the people of Mission Los Angeles. Enjoy this story's conclusion. System: OpenD6 (2nd Edition preview), from...

BTT EoW 2.31: School of Thought 18.06.2020

Season 2 is turning everything on it's head so far. Our group makes their way to a new hideout, and it's a familiar location to the story. But it brings a dark resolution to one of the side-shot episodes. Themes of loyalty, tenacity, betrayal, and deception are displayed here, but in some unexpected ways, and from the most unlikely of characters. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST:...

BTT One-Shot: Zorro 3 13.06.2020

We dive deep into the revamped mechanics of the D6 system in this episode. We try to wrap our minds around a different approach to Hero Points, experience some the new combat rules, and also try out the chase mechanics for the first time. But by the end, the story has still moved along as our heroes are trying to confirm their theories of the impostor Capitan's scheme. System: OpenD6 (2nd Edition...

BTT EoW 2.30: Where There's Smoke 11.06.2020

As Season 2 kicks off, it has been a week since the fight in the park. One character has been in a coma the entire time, while the others hideout with the Healing Hands, fearing that they are now wanted by the Council. But that secret base is far from safe as it appears the Fire Drakes are aware of their location. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron —...

BTT One-Shot: Zorro 2 04.06.2020

In this next installment of our one-shot, the characters meet up to determine who the masked bandito in the jail actually is. With the help of a lovely señorita, they discover that there are more imposters scheming in Mission Los Angeles. System: OpenD6 (2nd Edition preview), from West End Games, Nocturnal Publishing, and Gallant Knight Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron — Antonio de Lomba...

BTT EoW 1.29: Commentary 7 30.05.2020

Season 1 is in the books, so in this commentary episode we rehash our favorite moments from the most recent episodes, and touch on how some of the characters are far removed from where they fist started off. We also point out how the nature of the conflict in this campaign differs in one big way from our previous stories, leaving us questioning what side of the war are the characters actually on....

BTT One-Shot: Zorro 1 28.05.2020

We take a crack at a brand new game in this one-shot series. Zorro uses an upcoming release of the D6 system we use most often. In this story our characters assist Zorro in his quest for justice for the people of California. But there is a new Capitán in Los Angeles, and it is evident, at least to our heroes, that there is treachery afoot. System: OpenD6 (2nd Edition preview), from West End Games,...

BTT EoW 1.28: Unwilling and Able 25.05.2020

It's the Season 1 Finale of this campaign, and the stage is set for our hodgepodge hired Healing Hands heroes to finally make a move on the Fire Drakes... and that they do. But an unforeseen threat sparks a throw down at a public park in broad daylight. And with that kind of disturbance of the peace, in Consiglio, everyone loses... even the victors. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CA...

BTT Throwback: Inspectres, “Seattle Spirits” 8 21.05.2020

We put a wrap on our first run of Inpectres with a few possessions, a cauldron, ghost traps, and a couple well-place mirrors. All is made right, or at least not any worse than when they started off. But will the team ever be the same again? Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. Sorenson Cast: Carlin –  Auri Glasston Jeremy  –  Nathan Alex Woodson Johnny – Phil Raymond Mike –  Fra...

BTT EoW 1.27: Bagels and Butchers 19.05.2020

Characters drop some hints of some possible "off-screen" nefarious dealings, while Jordan paints a bleak picture of the true state of affairs for the Healing Hands. And yet again at the end another episode we have Sam... and a body. But this time there is an intriguing twist. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron — Sam Feluge Jeff — Jerr Lan Jeremy — Ju...

BTT Throwback: Inspectres, “Seattle Spirits” 7 14.05.2020

As if the creepiness wasn't already at an all-time high, Jordan cranks it up to eleven. A few characters have out of body experiences, in more ways than one, and another regains consciousness in a mysterious, dark and dank  basement. The descent into madness continues. Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. Sorenson Cast: Carlin –  Auri Glasston Jeremy  –  Nathan Alex Woodson John...

BTT EoW 1.26: Commentary 6 14.05.2020

In this commentary episode we explore some possible reasons why this campaign is really working out our roleplaying muscles rather than our dice rolling skills. I mean, we were 25 episodes in before our first character fired a shot. But we'd been so gripped by the story not everyone even noticed. We also toss around some theories about the tidbits of info the characters just received and what that...

BTT Throwback: Inspectres, “Seattle Spirits” 6 13.05.2020

When the group flees the airport and checks themselves into the Canterbury, EVERYTHING seems to go wrong. The stress rolls abound and chaos ensues as everyone looses there cool when the ectoplasm hits the fan. Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. Sorenson Cast: Carlin –  Auri Glasston Jeremy  –  Nathan Alex Woodson Johnny – Phil Raymond Mike –  Frank Cross Stephanie –  Trix...

BTT EoW 1.25: By Light of Fire 13.05.2020

In this episode, we point out how our character have spent more time apart rather than working along side each other. In this instance that proves to be quite beneficial as the two locations that they investigate both reveal some crucial information about the Fire Drakes. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron — Sam Feluge Jeff — Jerr Lan Jeremy — Julian...

BTT Throwback: Inspectres, “Seattle Spirits” 5 08.05.2020

The next round of investigation takes place at the office, and the "client" calls quite displeased. The jury is split on what to do next, but before they can come to a consensus, supernatural sparks start to fly in the form of visions, voices, and violent flames. Needless to say, there were a lot of stress rolls in this episode. Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. Sorenson Cast: Carlin –  Aur...
