Me And Steve Talk RPG‘s
Wide-ranging tabletop role-playing discussion, a variety of guests, and occasional actual-play content. All done with a casual, conversational vibe. Everything from tips for playing and GMing, to rule system discussions, with plenty of whatever happens to cross our minds along the way! Are we ”experts”? No! Do we really love ttRPGs? HECK YEAH!!! To that end, we‘re just looking to start conversations to help folks better understand how they can have more fun playing make-believe, and chucking dice!

Welcome to the conclusion of our little play-through of Havoc Brigade! by Grant Howitt!
Does our misfit band succeed on their mission, or do they even remember what it was? Do they finally prove that "yeeting" goblins does in fact solve problems?
You'll have to listen to find out, but I'm pretty sure you'll find some laughs along the way!
Welcome to Havoc Brigade!, a game written by Grant Howitt, and available here -- https://gshowitt.itch.io/havoc-brigade
Admittedly, this game does seem to feel a bit more lively and fun when played around an actual table, and it one continuous session. That said, we all had fun playing it, and I hope you all enjoy listening to our madness!
It's also worth noting that we did take this rather "cartoony" quite quickly, and it certainly does not have to be played that way. However, as much as we mention this game, we also felt like yall should hear us play it!
The Cast:
"New Steve" -- 'Sergent' Shivvit Deadeye, half-orc infiltrator
Ben -- Moontoof, Wyrdforest Shaman
Terry -- The Goblins (Stinky Pete, Stab, Snot, Brain, Bang, and Gobblit)
Eric -- The Ox
Hagan -- Profanius, devout Paladin of Bog-Al-Karukk
"Old Steve" -- GM

Who are "Me and Steve"?
We are 2 friends who happen to share a first name, and a love of tabletop roleplaying games. This podcast is the result of many, many hours spent standing outside after game sessions just talking about gaming, but we decided to get a couple microphones, go inside, and record it, and then share it with the world!
So join us as we share thoughts, experiences, and interviews with people from across the gaming community, as well as some of our adventures in various games we enjoy!
