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.

What's that you say? After that non-lethal fight in Scrapmaster's Arena, you've been wondering what it would look like if people stopped being non-lethal and started getting real? Then do I have an episode for you! This one, specifically. This is the episode where that happens.
Store Against the Machine is now open!
It's the first big reveal of the Network Against the Machine era! https://PodAgainsttheMachine.com/shop is LIVE with all your t-shirts, tote bags, stickers and more! Until 3/26 you can use coupon code HELL10N for 10% off, too, because the Lord of Rust himself commands it be so.

Hey. Sam screwed up and deleted this announcement, so you might be seeing it twice. Yeah, he's terrible. Fun fact, though: Store Against the Machine is still open, despite his terribleness. Head to https://podagainstthemachine.com/shop to check it out, and use coupon code HELL10N to get 10% off from now until 3/26/2022! Provided Sam doesn't accidentally delete that, too.

The VCIV come face to face with stalling tactics the likes of which have never been seen! A friend has a hard time, too.
Pod Against the Machine is now part of Network Against the Machine!
Well, it's all of Network Against the Machine. The point is, the ducks are in a row, and the chickens are counting all of the birds in the bushes. We're about to start a torrent of new and exciting things on the network including but not limited to a merch store, a Patreon, bonus games, and a giveaway that makes all of our previous giveaways look less exciting in comparison. Stay tuned, Scrappers!

Our heroes return with a new friend, and then they go shopping at a very Scrapwall shopping mall. Everyone there seems nice.

The Very Capable Four are good investigators. The Receiver Array seems like a nice place where nothing bad ever happens. It's good when creatures have tentacles for hands.
