…or Prawn Baps & Prawn Paps. In which our band of excise-folk, reunited, attempt a crossing between barrows (of sorts), discover a fine calf or two, debate the better practice of rules implementation and recover phrases by cunning and education. Titles are discussed. Whispers are made… A late Restoration and modern era Call of Cthulhu Scenario by Joseph Chance

CW: This podcast contains mature themes, strong language and cosmic horror. PLEASE BE AWARE: From 1:06:40 onwards, the recording has been left ad hoc to include Player conversation and meta-chat, with the deliberate intention of allowing the listener to hear the layers of comprehension and packaging at work and The Players in their more natural habitats. The sound of Dominic eating Pringles is naturally, therefore, VERY present (and I think we would agree, atmospheric for its inclusion). Where Pringles are to be found, speech will inevitably be “potato” influenced. ALSO PLEASE BE AWARE - Red Dwarf Spoiler warning from 1:11:20 to 1:12:20. As ever, human discretion is advised. The Apocalypse Players is an actual play (or live play) TTRPG podcast focused on horror tabletop roleplaying games. Think Dimension 20 or Critical Role, but fewer dragons, more eldritch horrors, and more British actors taking their roleplaying very seriously (most of the time). We primarily play the Chaosium RPG Call of Cthulhu, but have also been known to dabble with other systems, most of which can be found on our Patreon: www.patreon.com/apocalypseplayers We now have a free Discord server where you can come and worship at the altar of the Apocalypse, play Call of Cthulhu online, and meet like-minded cultists who will be only too eager to welcome you into the fold. New sacrifices - oops - we mean players are always welcome. Join here: discord.com/invite/kRQ62t6SjH For more information and to get in touch, visit www.apocalypseplayers.com
