Tavern Watch Plays Outgunned Adventure, episode 2: A practical guide to completely safe tomb raiding

Are we heading towards death or certain death? So far in our game of Outgunned Adventure, our crew of daring explorers has survived a fall into the hidden grotto that concealed the lost tomb of Erik the Red. (Possibly the reason they’re so daring is that they don’t know how close they were to death along the way.) But what will they find hidden inside as they hunt for treasures for their employer (and themselves) in this viking tomb?

Join GM Joe Perez as he guides the definitely ideal team of explorers through danger (sometimes self inflicted) and cliffhangers (sometimes literal). Our players are:

• Eric as Savar Khan, a fighter who may have more brawns than brains (an essential piece of every adventuring party) and could have more fashion sense than the rest of us put together.
• Phil as Raymond Suri, the obligatory professor who may be a little out of his depth (and scared of heights, making him the perfect mountain climbing companion).
• Liz as Victoria Sheng, a professional bounty hunter (the current bounty is treasure) who’s getting too old for this.
• Matt as Natalya Morozova, a former soldier who’s chasing the latest treasure for the thrill of it (and occasionally dropping shocking character reveals).

This is the second in a three-part game of Outgunned Adventure, a variant of Outgunned by Two Little Mice. If you haven’t already listened to it, you should start with our first episode of Outgunned Adventure! These games are all about creating cinematic moments inspired by the movies, and Adventure is all about exploring ancient tombs and charging through dense jungles in search of treasure! It’s a setting with movie magic built right in, from The Mummy to Indiana Jones. If you enjoy the game, check out Two Little Mice!
