This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I'm Tempted...

This lot have surely spent a long time playing RPGs.

I bring you the majesty that is Gloryhammer!

Space 1992: Rise of the Chaos Wizards.

With a tracklist that reads as such -

1. Infernus Ad Astra
2. Rise of the Chaos Wizards
3. Legend of the Astral Hammer
4. Goblin King of the Darkstorm Galaxy
5. The Hollywood Hootsman
6. Victorious Eagle Warfare
7. Questlords of Inverness, Ride to the Galactic Fortress!
8. Universe on Fire
9. Heroes (of Dundee)
10. Apocalypse 1992

That's a campaign right there.

Check out the youtube video of Rise of the Chaos Wizards. It's like Spinal Tap and The Darkness crossed with Power Rangers.

I suspect Rifts would be the best vehicle for this. Any other ideas?

S'mon

Yeah, pretty great - seems to be heavy WH40K influence.

Just been rocking out to these guys on Youtube while playing Munchkin with my 8 year old (he kicked my butt) - awesome!! :D

Necrozius

Nice stuff. A bit easier on the ears than Bolt Thrower (I think that they were an official band or something for 40k back in the 80s).

Realm of Chaos (in case you're curious; not really my thing but thought I'd share)

Yess!
Quote from: Necrozius;862034not really my thing
That's just not right, man:p

I'd recommend the later The IVth Crusade, ...For Victory or Those Once Loyal as an introduction To Bolt Thrower, but that's just me.
