Welcome to Pod Against the Machine, the only Actual Play podcast that specifically mentions its opposition to the machine in the title. We’re a ragtag group of five creating an epic story while playing through the Iron Gods Pathfinder First Edition adventure path from Paizo publishing. It’s like Dungeons and Dragons, complete with wizards, monsters, and skeletons...but with an added bonus of evil robots and horrifying aliens, all tied together with our (hopefully) funny banter, interesting characters, and edge-of-your-seat action.

So here we are again, under the ground. With machines and water and, you know, things that want to kill us. Funny how those are like, the one constant in this world.

One last trip (for now...) to 9000 years in the past, where we investigate the Crew Deck and try to understand the fate of the crew so far. This Tugboat Team might just have bit off more than they can space chew this time.
