Jason’s back! The Grey Ranks session was so full that he split it into two games - one of the advantages of GMless play. A surprisingly subtle game of The Shab-al-Hiri Roach: OVERLORD was also played, as well as a lot of playtesting. Thanks to everyone who came and enjoyed our offerings!

Here’s the video of some Grey Ranks actual play, with commentary by the players.
